Are you at the right spots most of the time? Do you never get spotted unless you want to? Are you good at trailing enemy ships and can keep track of their movements? Does your playing time differ from "CV prime time?" Do you know how to get enemy DDs killed without taking risk yourself? That's a lot of questions for TRB. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
504 [LBAS] PGM991 Member 1,554 posts Report post #5 Posted March 22, 2018 (edited) I pick smoke for protect myself from gunboat, cover teammates and for smoke shooting at helpless BB. kagero and yugumo are quite slow DD, I'd say they slower than most gunboat especially Soviet DD. you'll never out run them, they'll hunt you down like a mad dog with steroids if you don't position yourself right or don't have smoke to cover your escape. .........sorry, i just reminiscing when Kahab hunt me in my shimakaze... even with speed boost I still can't shake him off....... so damn terrified...

TRB is amazing, and smoke is unnecessary, so it's a pretty straightforward decision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only downfall is where u get into a MM with cv or worst still if your team has a complete potato cv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
