I’ve been playing for about a year. Here are my tips. 1- log on everyday to get your Free Chest. Even if you’re not going to play. Get the free rewards. 2- Save your camouflage, until you can get it permanently painted on your ship. Some are 25 to become permanent Paint. Use it on favorite ships first. 3- Never Rush the middle of the Map. All enemies will Target you. The AI usually Targets first ship it sees. 4- The game is Like Paper/Rock/Scissors Destroyers are good for taking out Battleships really Fast. Cruisers takes Destroyers Battleships takes out Cruisers. 5- Most Destroyers have Torpedoes on both sides. So time your Route of which side you’re going to shoot and maneuver to the other side. More chance to hit the enemies Broadside than front side. 6- Most Cruiser don’t have Better Armor. So try to stick with a Battleship and support it, because you can Fire faster than a Battleship. I recommend using HE Salvos because of many shells you can keep firing. 7- Battleships are good near the center, since they can Fire the furthest, but needs supports from Cruisers to survive from Destroyers. 8- make sure you have the Right captain to your ship. Most Captains are better for certain ship class. 9- Make sure to start doing the Bureau’s to get Rewards and Ships. 10- Do Daily’s Missions to get Ore Rewards. 11- Just have Fun. Destroyers are aggressive since you need to get close to use torpedos. Cruisers are to support Battleships and kill Destroyers. Battleships can Destroy Cruisers with 2 Shots if they get close. And 1 shot to destroy a Destroyer if they get really close. Cheers 🍻
I got a work around with 4, battleships are really good damage ships SO, you aim all your guns at the destroyer and shoot once. Once it takes the bait, fire the rest. Wasteful, but satisfying.
I’m a pretty experienced player, with 66% wr and 3200 games. Watching this video these things seem obvious to me, but this video makes me realize how rough this game can be on new players. Good video, I suggest you make as many of these video types as possible, a lot of people need this video.
buddy got a question , I'm new...sort of . Dude it seems I have to open my wallet to get those gold coins. I know im not doing something correct. what's the best or fastest way to get those gold coins without having to go to the store and buy them ? it seems when I advance on upgrading a ship for example " the hull" there's the conversions thing that happens , but damm I need xp and I need gold coins for the conversion... so wtf ?!! lol how do I earn gold coins. is this just how the game is set up ? thanks in advance buddy
@@e.s.5529 ...nope...gold is used for purchasing premium time (gives xp and silver bonuses for each game you play), premium ships, and packages from the Store. Silver is used to upgrade your ships, and you earn that by doing things during the games themselves...spotting enemy ships, damaging enemy ships, capturing bases, etc. It is possible to play the game without ever getting any gold...buying and spending gold just "accelerates progress", or gives you customizable things that don't really affect gameplay too much...
@@e.s.5529 the only time youd use doubloons aka gold coins, on the upgrade screen for a ship is to remove an upgrade to put another one on. Or to convert your elite xp to global xp to boost the ships progress. Easiest way is to follow these tips and play/grind your ship to the next tier. Premium time really helps, if you can drop 10 bucks on the game, you can get 30 days premium. 50% boost to xp, currency and I think global xp. Not e entirely sure about the global but I do know it helps. Please ask any questions you have. The more you know, the better you'll do!
Another great tutorial. Been playing since the beginning, and still get tunnel vision sometimes. Looking around while loading is great advice. Using gun lock as you recommend is also a great help. Ganging up on the crippled ships too! There is no such thing as kill stealing. You are eliminating an enemy’s guns from the battlefield. If there are 4 ships in my range, I will always focus the one closest to dead. An almost dead ship does just as much damage.
I think it just depends how you think i find WOW alot easier than WOT the tactics of what i need to do just comes naturally in a battleship to me but in tank i am terrible 🤣
I just started playing Legends after over a year of playing Blitz, thank you this was helpful. One thing to add to looking at the map, I got a habit of doing what I call Destroyer Inventory. Basically, see how many DDs are still alive in the enemy team vs how many are spotted, and if they don't add up the same, keep your head on a swivel, especially if in a BB.
Good point. I've been playing legends for a year and just started playing blitz (at work). And I'm surprised who the mobile version of the game is so much more complex, more ships, more upgrades, more voice commands. It's cool.
@@IOnlyCameToArgue I hope Legends gets there. I realize it much newer, but there's a few things I feel are lacking. Not being able to control your secondary guns directly is one.
Yeah I think the developers of legends want to keep their version of the game a bit more arcadey and easier for players to get into. They've stated on forums that they have no intention of bringing carriers or submarines in anytime soon. I would just like a few more voice commands but now that they just put in all the voice commands with nee languages they won't change it now unless they call all the voice actors back in. 7 tiers is enough for me, I'm done grinding to tier 7 for awhile anyway. It's such a kick in the nuts to work for a few weeks to get the Iowa or Fletcher only to have to spend money on the game because it would take weeks to grind out 18 million silver. And I rarely play my Iowa or Fletcher anyway. I have the most fun at tiers 4 and 5.
I’m new, last night I put all my commander xp onto one commander, then when I heard you say not to do that, I facepalmed. I wasn’t even aware I was paying a service charge and I was bee lining the British ships. I’m gonna go back on now and try the other nations aswell as playing a lot more with the map. Thank you for the video. Also sticking with teammates, I was just trying to play battleships like a sniper, cruisers like a ar and destroyers like a shotgun (I usually die straight away with destroyers)
Tip for destroyers don’t fire until you’re spotted get as close as you can. I hate seeing friendly destroyers fireing at a battles ship the second the battles ship is spotted and the destroyer get blown away befor it gets it’s torpedos out
Good advice. Everybody probably has a different #11 and #12 for that. Mine follow. #11 - Whatever you're driving, don't sail predictable courses for too long. If nothing seems to be happening, hit the brakes for a few seconds, or speed up, or alter your course, or SOMETHING. I've lost count of all the times I've done these things, only to have a wall of torps buzz through where I would have been a minute or so later #12 - Learn to use your Smoke Screen wisely. 20 seconds into the battle is almost always NOT wise - .it achieves nothing except advertise to the enemy that a DD is there who's already used one of its Smoke Screen charges.
Another good educational video from Mr Hee Gone!....having been playing this game from Beta and watching Tbull videos from the start i can highly recommend what has been advised in these videos and would recommend all new and newish players watch a learn from him and other You Tube conributors...Knowledge is power!!!!.
I played from the beginning but will still watch this as I have not played for a few months but enjoy watching you, Spartan, Tactic et all!!! Thanks Man!!!
This is so helpful! Thank you so much. I've been playing on Steam, but woe is me, I use Linux and a recent update FUBAR'd the steam version on me. This was a good opportunity to do it right from the beginning. I'm still trying to get used to the difference between the two versions, but this is great foundational stuff. To your point about showing broadside in a duel, the only time I'd say do it is like with the old sailing frigates- if you're crossing a T, rake em! I dig the Grateful Dead avatar BTW
Thanks for your guides, mate. I was lucky enough to grab a PS5 recently (at normal price here in the UK, hate scalpers!) and have downloaded this. Looks great but I’m glad I found your videos before I start playing. Lots of useful tips that I’m sure will help me out. Cheers.
Good advice. I really think they should consider putting up spot assist ribbons or something similar, a lot of people don't know it makes xp or even is a thing....I didn't know for a while.
Battleships switch to HE if you're up against destroyers. Especially at game start cause that'll be first contact. Don't over penetrate with AP... If you already have AP loaded aim a little lower below the water line
That to me is the biggest thing to do in this game I’ve been playing for a year and recognizing what the enemy ship is and what it’s stats are are vary important. Example your in a battle ship and you see a Russian destroyer and he is 8 km away I know his torpedos have a range of 4 km so I’m not afraid of him. But then you see a Japanese destroy and he has a range of 10 km I am scared of him. Or you see a American cruiser I know they are the easiest thing to citadel
Bought the game today, but had to go to work while it updated. Your advice about leveling up ALL the lower tiers b4 going to the higher ones would have been good advice for WOT. I got my tank shot out from under me so many times...
@Tbull Between the De Grasse and the Molotov -- which is better in your opinion? I love both. I do about equally well with each, so I'm not sure which I like better. To be honest, they seem pretty similar, my play style doesn't change much depending on which one I'm using. They both are big fire starters, both hit pretty hard, and they both can get citadeled into oblivion when in bad position. That said, you can kite a bit more with the De Grasse, while the Molotov has better AP and hits more citadels from distance.
Dumb question I know, but I am going to ask anyway. Would love to see a video on & when to use communication’s. I see you communicating, Sometimes I understand, but not always. I don’t know how to communicate with my teammates. Something I need to learn. Sometimes I see messages pop, but don’t know who is communicating and even if it was directed to me.
I need to work on battlefield awareness more and helping my teammates. I would say to rush one ship (non carrier) line to tier VII or now VIII. Then that way you can have at least one ship in any tier for special events and such. Premium currency (doubloons) are probably best spent on Admiral Backing once you reach milestone 100 in the monthly campaigns. A tier VIII ship for 2500 doubloons is a great deal, assuming you can play well at that tier.
Great video we need to educate our new player base so they don't run away, this game is so fun once you get the basic concepts. I played world of tanks for over 4 years the concepts just made sense to me. Was a decent player out the gate. Hang in there guys this game only gets funner. They give you way more Incentives to play and cheaper premium vehicles with Admiral backing then world of tanks. Be patient take your time watch game events and game modes to stack in game goods and crates to unlock new ships at a cheaper cost.🏴☠️😎🏴☠️
i found its possible to citidel cruisers with american destroyers, is this common to most destroyer calibre ap or specific to more gun boaty ones? would that be an exception to he for destroyers or does it just come down to if theyre broadside fire for citidels?
I have mistakingly sold a lot of ships. I have a tier 2 premium ship, tier fives, and between 2 and 4 tier sixes. I'll buy all of my previous ships slowly and keep them all for sure. One night, I had 11 victories and 10 defeats, and I survived 1, which was pathetic, but 11 victories was really satisfying. I had 7 victories in a row that night, which was pretty awesome. Thanks for the tips, and happy battling!
Tbull which global xp ship would you recommend to buy first? I’m thinking Tirpitz because I have cilliax and hipper at high levels. I’m most experienced with German battleships but I’ve also heard the Alabama is very strong. Any suggestions?
I can usually tell when a ship blows, and I'm NEVER going to play it again...no qualms about selling those...it's funny how you mentioned the New York as an example...😄😂🤪
As an average player with a below average win rate, a nugget of advice. Stick with your team, one ship is a juicy target for all. Three ships are a tough match.
Good afternoon. Enjoy and appreciate all the great information you have provided for new players such as myself. Friends and I have been playing in division together which is capped at 3 it seems, but have recently talked another friend into playing the game. How can we all play together in same matches? Link divisions? Enter matches together? Grateful for any help with this issue please. o7
I'm new to the game this week, ps4 player, and I'm loving the game after only getting to rank 10 in a couple of days. These videos look like just the thing I need as a noobie. Have u any 2021 up to date videos.?
Do you have any tips for players moving up to that next level? I have quite a bit of experience in the game and I was doing well when I got the hang of tiers 4 and 5, but moving up from there has been quite inconsistent.
T6 is where stock ships really get punished. Without upgrades you can have 10% less HP, RoF, range, etc.. so it is always rough until the ship is fully upgraded. Personally i use green xp to buy the first upgrade for every new ship.
The higher tiers are where you'll more consistently be punished for your mistakes, so you need to take all the fundamentals you've hopefully learned and make them as consistent as possible
Good video! Yeah I ended up selling a lot of my ships because I didn’t realize there is not a limit in the Port unlike the garage slots in World of Tanks...luckily I have some premium ships to grind credits. Should I bother buying those ships back now?
@@TbullGaming Meh, I play almost all DDs and I have sold the DDs that I don't like. The only two non-DDs I have are the Atlanta and the Kutuzov, which I basically got for free and just use to grind XP and silver. I realized pretty early that I don't like playing BBs or most CAs.
Tbull Sounds good! I’ll keep that in mind moving forward, probably won’t buy back ships that I have premium substitutes for though. i.e. Arkansas substitute Wyoming, etc.
How does the torp white aiming line show you which way the enemy ship is going? I play a PC & cruisers but I imagine the principle is the same. All great tips, I did sell some low tier ships to get credits to buy other low tier ships. I was only keeping tier 5 and up and according to you that is a mistake on my part, however, I still have plenty of free credits and xp credits, but I'm out of doubloons which is sad and I have to figure out how to get more doubloons.
@@TbullGaming Cool that is great information to know... Thanks for your reply... BTW I do have two tier 1 and the rest are tier 4, 5, & 8 all cruisers.
I’ve seen how some xbox players and pc players shoot shells and then be able to track the shells like the camera follows the shell while it flies to the sky onto the target what button configuration or button do I press to do this since I am new to wow legends btw I am on ps4
I played World of Tanks for years so thought I’d give this a go. Thank you for your clear and concise video, I look forward to watching many more to help me get started and progress 👍Liked and subbed! 🏴😁
Did the same thing, played world of tanks for 4 years now seen this game come out had to try it out! But the information really helps you get along in the game without been sunk every match lol
I used to be a WT player so some of these concepts make sense (such as service cost) but i didnt know most of these useful tips such as the presence of armor angling. Thanks for helping out the new players like me.
Last round, I was the last player left because I had to avoid showing my broadside to an enemy battleship, but instead, I ended up being killed by 4 cruisers and I couldn’t do much because no matter where I tried to go, I’d die, almost killed that battleship too!
I’ve sold plenty of my lower tier ships but I’ve got plenty of other tech tree ships I’m grinding too, I know I’ll never be in that position for hurting for credits
I don't quite get it. Selling the previous tire ship seems to have worked out fine for me. I mean since the first time I got my hands on Emerland the only thing I was looking forward to was to get the necessary xp in order to unlock Leander. Same story with Icarus and Jevris. Without selling some ships I wouldn't have been able to progress to tier 6. So what's the catch?
Unless you are much better than your average new player, you will not be making positive income from T6 and especially T7 matches, and if you've sold your previous ships you will quickly be bankrupt and forced to start over with a T1 and work your way back up. Just don't sell the tier 5 and up is my advice
I worked multiple tech trees to progress and generate currency. Sold all my ships on tier up. Was rn bb, kms cruiser, USA dd, main focus was RN bb. Rest were used for farming. Dds at t4 are great farming.
Wait How'd you get gun lock button? I've been looking for that for ages hate looking where the enemy's are then waiting few seconds for my guns to move back into firing position
EXACTALY what I told my nephew that plays this game good but is very impatient. He buys then sells everything ro get to the next item he wants..lol I told him do not di this and I do not even know the game as well as he does. He has been playing for almost 2 yrs and me maybe 6 months. This to be is just pure gaming logic. Unless your a beginner like your saying or a kid that knows nothing about how to play this game. Take this advice from you. Its like GOLD!
Too late... Started 3 days ago and I already did the rank thing on the commanders. But they are my historical favorites tho. Yamamoto and Dewey. I have one battle ship and I hate the loading times between shots, but that ok, I finally got all her upgrades so its back to the cruisers n such. I subbed, I need this lol.
...different ships work a little differently, but I find good luck in reducing my rudder shift time, which enables me to dodge incoming fire, and / or decreasing my visibility, so I can disappear when I need to disengage. Vary your speed just about constantly, and change directions even more often. Be aware of which enemies are targeting you, and angle your ship away from them...you can dodge their shots, and avoid torpedoes. Above all, don't show your broadside to them, or there may very well be an Earth shattering kaboom... When starting a fight with an enemy, and you're still hidden, avoid shooting until you're already just past broadside, and turning away from them...by the time they react, you're already angled away. Then, wait for them to shoot, and alter your course away from the shells...you can oftentimes dodge most.
@@mrkos87 ...well, yeah, it happens to everyone...I remember dodging every shot from a New York way back when...not the most accurate ship at long range, and then, one shell deviates WAY outside the group of shells...I dodged the group, but this one shell plunged through my deck armor, and took half my health...what ya gonna do? 😄😂🤪
@@Zapranoth-lf8nt But what i try to say is that cruisers got destroyed in a blink of an eye and for example destroyers get away with much more. You now what i mean? And i know, cruisers a bigger etc..
The more ships you have the better ,they have a bonus in the form of a star, also go straight at enemy , back up destroyers and kill destroyers they are the biggest threat , is ok if you loose just as long as you fought hard ,you get your ship back , i dont recomend a frighten player to play standard because you are useless hiding plus you dont progress well ,
I also use ps4 and I always die and also plz tell me what button to press to say a thing like GO BACK or yea coz Ik that button is R1 but how to activate them? plz help me
Save them for permanent camos on your higher tier ships. Basically don't use them at all on your lower tier ships, up to tier 4. You want them on all higher tier destroyers first, then the higher tier cruisers.
My advice would be to get all of the cruiser lines in the game up to level 3 first, then level. Doing so will give you a lot more game experience and a chance to try out different lines before going further, as well as a chance to see which lines you get commanders for early. If you are determined to just work on one line, I would suggest the Japanese cruisers first
I've been messing around with this game for about 3 years now and honestly? Yeah. Accurate. But I actively avoid selling ships as much as possible. However, I sell the ones I either don't find fun OR ones I know I'm not going to grind. For example, I knew I wasn't going to be able to grind more than 2 tech trees, so I ditched my Italian BB, since I'm going hard on French TT lines.
