LWM review makes me think Hipper is not outclassed by Eugen. Your experience in Prinz Eugen? Buy and regret? Buy and like? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It can stay in fight much longer, thus the damage so it usually shine in late game. 1 spixys reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
325 [BRU] EvyL Super Tester 1,684 posts Report post #5 Posted September 24, 2018 I have the heavy cruiser and if you look at it, she's not that much different than her big sister apart from being more tougher with more HP, a bit more AA guns in the suite the repair party which enables her to survive longer. If you're already very accustomed to German cruiser gunnery as well as having experience aboard Admiral Hipper, then Prinz Eugen isn't that much different apart from having this feel of being 'heavier' than her sister, despite the marginal difference of range.

Difference: Before: you are in an Admiral Hipper. Now: you can now pretend you are in a Roon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have her and she is a great ship, never regretted I bought her. I remember a battle where as a result of a stupid mistake I lost a lot of health. Similar to a BB, was able to disengage and heal a lot of that damage back. Don’t remember if I earned a Fireproof… Good gun range, accuracy, damage and turret traverse. Good armour, good AA and on top 2x2 torp launchers with very usable arcs. I would say she plays more like a mini-Tirpitz, rather than a large-Nurnberg. Now you may ask yourself, with the PE being based on Hipper, does it make sense to spend the money for PE? Hipper got the reload buff and PE the heal, besides that I would really have to look up stats to see what else is different. I personally prefer the PE because of the heal and that makes her different enough to make it a worthwhile purchase, IMO. If you want to spend $60 you have to know yourself. I don’t play Ranked much, but I saw see quite a few PE’s in Ranked, not so many Hipper - if any. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
