This ship is the embodiment pf the saying “The best defense is a better offense.” Wargaming is cooking with the names.

Agree about the guns. However I've been regularly having 2 mill + potential damage games in the defence and find it to be suprisingly durable. On top of that having 6 short burst smokes to disengage at will is so nice.

I would compare guns more to Thunderer but without the penetration. You aren't getting this accuracy with King George V.

I ended up going for it... 150K coal + 76k RP for Defence and a couple of cruisers plus 4x Big crates seemed ok. Although I already had Ohio and Slava and was struggling on what RB ship I wanted next. I like the Defence so far, but only have played a few games in it.

I agree. At first I said hell no to KIta, but now I am considering getting it, debating on the rarity. And later the regret I'll feel for not getting it.

@Swarm509 6 ай бұрын

I had a majority of coal with RP for the last 10-15% and got them all up to Defence as well. In all the three ships we got are actually quite good for what they are. I saw a lot of Kita's when the event started but not anymore, and they never seem to have a major impact on games.

I used to play this game for the historic ships. Some of the almost builts were also interesting but then it all became fantasy. This ships is totally fictional - BUT - similiar ships were planned by several navies after the Germany Panzer Schiffs were launched. However, the only such ships completed were the French Dunkerque and Strassbourg. If the UK, Japan and the US had not signed the 1932 London treaty which extended the building holiday for 5 more years to1937 there may have been several more Cruiser-Killers. This is an interesting ship and the only real problem I have with it is the 16 sec reload for its 14" guns! The KGV launched in 1940 has 14" guns with a reload of 28 sec! CRAZY!

Erm... worth 2 or 3 Ohios? No, not even close. Fourty stages would get you the Defence and would cost you 96k RP. The Ohio is 62k. So you're basically paying about 50% more, but you're also getting a T6 Elli, T7 Francesco Ferruccio, and 4 Big Santa Containers included in that price.

You can also pay with coal and steel too, so if you have a surplus of any, you can make it cheaper. I spent a fuck ton of coal.

HMS Defence is named after the pre WW1 Unarmoured Cruiser that was destroyed at the Battle of Jutland after being bracketed by two German Dreadnought shells. She was never intended to be in the firing line for a Main Fleet battle, but her Flag Officer was apparently an idiot and insisted on steaming his ships up and down between the opposing fleets instead of withdrawing to provide the option of rescue for the crews of the big ships should they be fatally damaged. Stupid choices cost lives. A cousin of mine was the Engineering Officer aboard that Defence and sadly was killed with the ship.

Honesty the skill floor is high on this ship, you cannot just sail around openly but my god is the DPM there. The problem right now is that people in randoms will all shoot me as priority target because [new ship threat gets everyones attention]. You have to play this like a lightcruiser around islands & use smoke to turn out and torps when ppl push in.. the best part is that it’s not so squishy as to pop like a light cruiser, I get penned a lot but the high HP buffer is excellent. Just don’t open water at all, play it like a high dpm Goliath with smoke

@SuperCrazf 7 ай бұрын

I personally thing this ship is balanced, a rarity this day unlike some other ships we get nowadays. The guns are amazing, secondaries can be useful, you get torps and you get smoke; but on the other hand it has weak armor (but not cripplingly bad, i've been able to bounce some big shells) so you need to be careful. Also something people i think don't think much about, but Defense has a small profile, is a small ship, and that can make it easier to evade shells especially at long range

You say it’s not overpowered and yet you name 4 pros for the ship and only 1 con… No way this ship ISNT overpowered, people just haven’t properly realised it yet due to the scarcity.

well, let see, turret traverse is awful, it does not have british acceleration or super heal and you can easily pen it from the front with guns of the same caliber, citadel sits atop the water and shares a similar shape to yoshino or azuma so it can easily eat penetrations and citadels.@@jpage

I decided to make a day of it if I was going to burn through all of my resources and picked up Scharnhorst '43, RN Ruggiero di Lauria, HNLMS Tromp, Slava, VP Elli, RN Francesco Ferruccio, HMS Defence and Kitakami all at the same time. Got FR25 out of the four Big Santa's Gifts too. I did have to purposely not collect Scharnhorst '43 in order to get it on the same day. If I am not going to have a stockpile, then to hell with it, lets burn it all. I regret nothing!

I wish WG gave Yoshino some attention. That ship has a lot of potential, but it eats way too much damage. Sure the fire chance is good, but the ship eeds improvement.

@chris8878 7 ай бұрын

Why is that relevant to this conversation? Wargaming never adjusts core armor layouts after they’re released, the only ships that WG may adjust are totally broken & overpowered or something that was missed like asw bug or something. When you say “this ship needs improvement” it sounds like you just want your favorite ship to be OP when it clearly isn’t.. WG doesn’t do “let’s see what this ships weakness is, wow let’s plug that hole” for no reason whatsoever..

@thomasfleming8415 6 ай бұрын

Yoshino is good where it is. Long range HE spammer, solid AP when you have the opportunity and torps that surprise the reds. Just stay back. ofc hard to influence the game except through dmg farming.

@phearz0r 7 ай бұрын

Potato, your logic doesn't work when it comes to what to prioritize. The defence is currently a one time availability item (yes they can bring it back later for another resource, but we dont know). So it makes sense to max out the FOMO and get the ship now. You can always get OHIO later. Can always get the Steel ships later. This and the Kitakami are only available once, afawk.
