That’s where I had it on my list to start, high playable. The biggest reason I agreed to let it fall to niche was the fact it’s a premium ship and I think it’s a side grade to Montana.

@@TheSoulfire73it’s a worse Montana at best

Yeah, like the state, you only go there for certain reasons

There already is a tricked Republique, it’s the black version 😂

Oh yeah.

The main guns still feel “off” to me. The dispersion went from laser accuracy to having trouble hitting a BB back to nice accuracy. The AP used to crush cruisers but it seems very inconsistent to me now. I’ve had the ship forever and it pains me to put it into “needs fixing” but it needs some help to put it back into playable or higher

Interesting. I likely haven’t had the ship for as long as you but the ap feels really good to me. Of course it’s not an incomp or Vincent in terms of ap pen, and the dispersion is a bit wonky, but I still get consistent citadels and full pens on cruisers, and it’s still a Yamato class with insane range and good accuracy, and to me that deserves at least a playable ranking. I can see where you are coming from and I agree the ship needs a couple buffs, but I still think the current state of the ship is good enough to pull it out of needs fixing to low playable.

But wouldn't you want it to be better

@@Slai47 absolutely. I just don’t think it is bad enough to place in needs fixing, it is still playable in today’s game, unlike base conqueror.

@@gladr6687 Shikishima used to be what Incomp is now. Unfortunately I can’t find any screenshots on my old IPad to back up my argument. I thought I had some video or pics of cruisers getting sent back to port in one salvo.
