3 Shalsy Member 11 posts 293 battles Report post #1 Posted March 15, 2019 Hi, first of all, I'm a new player, I had a game where I was HMS Orion and my opponent was Kaiser, both are tier 4 battleships. It was near the end and we both exposed our broadside to shoot each other. What I didn't expect is his turrets have like no CD at all, kept shooting at me relentlessly like if he was a cruiser, I just watched him pummel my ship into Ironbottom Sound while my turrets are still at 10'ish seconds CD. We won that game by points tho but I was really suspecting that he was cheating, and to my surprise, there doesn't seem to be a way to report cheaters in-game.

Too bad you only have the option to report through the battle stats screen Hover to the player name and report as hacking Edited March 15, 2019 by Gummilicious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you get close to an enemy ship,at the tier you were playing under approx 5km,the secondaries will start firing,which as drakon233 said is most likely what has happened. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look for the folder of replays in your C:/ folder and upload it here. Thanks I just checked the replay, the shots he fired at me are HE, so I think they're secondaries. His main gun was AP.... my bad. My secondaries weren't shooting, maybe Kaiser secondaries have a longer reach and outranges Orion, which I didn't know. I'll upload the replay anyway. Sorry for the false alarm, those bullets are pretty big so I thought it was a no reload hack or something. 20190315_081138_PBSB104-Orion_05_Ring.wowsreplay 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1,408 [CLAY] AntifoulAwl Alpha Tester 2,289 posts 10,040 battles Report post #16 Posted March 15, 2019 Make sure your secondaries are turned on. Toggling P activates them. A little icon shows up when they are turned off. You can focus them on a ship by using control key and the cursor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just checked the wiki, the range for Kaiser secondary is 4.5km, while for Orion it's 3.5km. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
290 BanditSE1977 Member 1,365 posts 6,074 battles Report post #18 Posted March 16, 2019 It was definitely his secondaries shooting at you,and looks like he had the AFT secondary skill as they opened up at about 5.2km. You will find that the range increase as the tiers get higher,especially with German battleships. Couple of pointers for you to if you are interested from watching your replay: Use AP when firing at cruisers and battleships ( depending on the angle! ).You could have done a lot more damage to the Kaiser with AP. Try not to sail completely broadside against other battleships as they can a lot more damage to you that way.Angle you ship just enough so that you can shoot at the enemy.Another thing you can do is sail nose towards the enemy,and only swing the tail out when the guns are nearly ready to fire,then swing the tail back.This will reduce how much damage you take a lot.
