Best Destroyers / War Thunder 

Also Gaijin "We don't balance by repair cost"

Shimakaze was probably one of the best destroyer period during wwii.

@@Canadianvoice Still not a reason to give her repair costs that are *six times* as high as the ones of comparable DDs like late German ones, Sumner or Somers.

@@12LoLproductions Naval balance is a joke because the BRs are too narrow. (The German reserve DD could be uptiered against Shimakaze because of that!) I wouldn't have a problem if Gaijin adds some halfway-copy-paste ships and increase the BR range so that such things don't happen. And don't get me started about the "There's always a bigger fish" balancing problem, which happens too often: DD

@@Canadianvoice For E The Best Is Fubuki

Can confirm, my duck is going apeshit each time I play naval, with 5 sea frags at minimum, starting from her very first battle when she caught fire, burnt for a while, refused to die, and sank 5 ships.

Yeah,but in different player this maybe not same because?every player have a favorit ship on the game and i love ijn shimakaze,tashkent to

Exactly the ship that came to my mind too!

Thank you someone said it, I was thinking about the akizuki aswell

It's strange they didn't choose Akizuki. Shimakaze is practically a Fubuki with good speed and more torps.

It's shells are T H I C C, It has a very quick reload and it gets antifrag armour. Oh yeah... And it's an Amarican SF-40 Light

It's a joke they didn't even include Sumner or any of the fletchers

Such a sexy ship I love it, blasts away any aircraft and can blast away most ships

@@Hylian_Knight For real… and their triple A’s are amazing

Exacly, but they put Somers....

Yeah it would and I’m pretty sure that the German cruisers had radar too like the emden nurnberg and heavy cruisers

I live the USS Kidd AND the battle class of destroyers

Yeah that would be great like they don’t have to be like Gepard level aaa tracking but at least something

@@jackwayne3333 they had search radars, like most countries had at the time. Tracking radars are a different type of radar

I know that’s what I said in previous comment dude or girl

becuase everything is 1 shotted by torps :p

Designed to defend against something doesn't mean it can't be easily defeated by them. Take Tank-destroyers for example. They are made to destroy tanks but that doesn't mean tanks can't easily destroy them.

Map design which sometimes caters to small coastals hiding and surprising... players in early DDs that are so lost and excited that they don't see the coastal sneaking up on them... DDs are absolutely effective at killing PT boats if the DD player is aware and has a shot.

@@endeyfire I have killed many DDs with Depth Charges... It is actually more reliable than torpedoes sometimes.

@@gfriedline that's probably because if you get to drop depth charges, you're already so close that no gun of the DD can reach you anymore. a DD probably has a dead zone of around 50m around the ship where neither his main battery nor his AA guns can reach

If they included a premium russian DD, Moffett should hade made to the gold medal

The sad fact is that 90% of naval players already know the Moffett is the most broken and fun DD to play. Even at 5.0 where it gets completely outclassed by every cruiser it faces, it still dominates with those rapid fire 5/38's.

@@gfriedline imo the Moffet outguns some cruisers, especially heavy cruisers that have slow turning, slow firing guns. a cruiser has bigger alpha strike potential, but the Moffett makes up for it with it's fast fire. and the best shell has enough punch to easily wreck 5.0 and 5.3 cruisers, maybe even 5.7 ones if played carefully

@@DJKenTuckyOfficial It absolutely can. The Moffet is sort of a glass-cannon DPS. The SAP and HEVT will absolutely rip apart anything it faces short of BBs. The only downside is that you have to play it like a sneaky snek to avoid the wrath of 150mm guns.

I think that's just normal in naval. It's not like in air battles, where reserve vehicles stand almost no chance against planes that are at higher BRs. I remember ammo racking a USS Moffett in my reserve HMS Vega with a lucky SAP shot

@@magnus7857 and naval battles where huge cat and mouse games irl so it makes sense

The boats that had the 450mm 45-36NU with 6km short range are now essentially unarmed/cost sabotaged, especially the Frunze, the pr.123s and the Groza. For some reason, it became the most overpriced torpedo in game after update DIRECT SH*T. If I use those torps, a severe loss of SL is guaranteed. To avoid bankruptcy, might as well go into battle essentially unarmed of 45-36NU...let's hope Gaijin fixes this and avoid making such mistakes next patch. I'm pretty sure this isn't the only severe issue from last patch...there's more, but I'll leave it at that

I'm pretty sure Italian destroyer guns aren't as bad as Soviet destroyer 102mm caliber guns, though the reserve and prem 102mms are some of the most accurate naval guns in game

@@leponpon6935 they are better yes but they also have the reload speed of a cruiser

Hey that's a pretty good idea

Actually, not just universal backups, unusable backups in reserve vehicles also need to be settled this way as well if not for GEs~

Better idea... all of these crates I get from every patch drop/season that require a key to open... make the keys available for SL or something. I shouldn't have to go to the market and buy keys that were only provided by the snail for the sole purpose of soaking cash into GJN. Even more, make the crates contain more valuable items, not just a skin or decorator and the rare chance for some "ultra rare" vehicle that I cant use because it is rank 1. Maybe if we can get rid of the unused boxes, we can clean up the servers a bit.

@@gfriedline also a very good idea, but I just put on sale in market place for whales to cherry pick

@@leponpon6935 Do you sell Keys for Patch Award crates? Are you cheaper than the competition (Gaijin)?

Gaijin is trying to find the Marine Nationalè, but they are hiding somewhere

No... the Isreali tech tree was more important than the French Naval trees. Gaijin knows that Naval is not high demand, so they won't try to get more revenue from a mode which they consider dead.

@@gfriedline more important for you, maybe more important for Gaijin... but i'd rather wait next year to get israeli mirage variants and get French Navy this year.

@@nicolaspeigne1429 Oh don't worry.... Isreal tech tree is of no interest to me. The vehicles are essentially copies of current tech-tree variants from other nations. And I really don't feel like grinding another set of crews from zero. It is almost a blatantly obvious cash-grab at this point. They get revenue from the pre-order premiums, they get revenue for people adding crew points to fresh crews... they get revenue from all of that, all while not adding anything of substantial value to the game or the community. I am all for Isreal having some form of it's own tech-tree... But I just don't see it anywhere near the top-ten of needs in game right now. Gaijin needs revenue, so the Isreali tech tree is next. Pretty obvious.

@@gfriedline if they consider Naval a dead mode, why do they keep adding ships?

Merica

Superior America-German ship design

German spam cannon? British and american ships got 2 sec reloads lol hipper and graf spee have long reloads

@@rickalonso1502 do you only pay attention to higher BRs? Some of us can't even fight at the same BR as those ships.

@@snazzydazzy at the moment the ww1 dreadnoughts dominate naval lower br its britain and america ruling with fast reload guns

My contact in Gaijin HQ told me that they never thought about adding these. But thanks to your ingenius and creative suggestion they can now start working on it!

Balance hell

I doubt China has many ww2 ships but they certainly do have some pre war and post war

7 people, and 24 Zombie bot accounts... get your facts straight!

you can meet Atlantas when you reach 4.3, cause you can get thrown into matches up to 1.0 BR higher than your highest vehicle in the deck (it's also not recommended to take an aircraft that his of a higher BR than your best ship, cause then the matchmaker considers your aircraft's BR for the matchmaking)

how does that game mode work?

@@DJKenTuckyOfficial look up "Battlestations pacific resurrected in Warthunder by Phly daily

i agree, DD-692 is definitrly better than most of these, especiall leone

Freccia is awesome, but it's a motor torpedo boat (I don't use torpedos with her btw).

@@baalrech why should one even use the torpedos? i mean, the 3 40mm guns shred DDs, it's insane

The Freccia used to be broken. Apparently its 40mm vt fuse rounds were bugged and caused way more damage than they should have. I remember destroying DD 4km away in less than 10 secondes. Or running away in my DD when knowing a Freccia was less than 5km away from me.

💕 8 dshk AA 😉:: not to mention the Leningrad class Leningrad DD premium also~ though it is rank i and current battle tasks only counts rank ii and above😢

Been Playing since 2014, they won't change it better to save and buy 4 bushes are more than enough trust me it wont get better

Play arcade and get used to the maps and know the danger zones / camp spots etc. Low teir Acrade is fun

@@DiceStrike I can't play arcade cause of the gow easy it is for the panzers to pen my tank and I can't start Germany cause they killed my half family at ww2 so i prefer rb to even have a chance to kill one when it doesn't expect it but i will try to learn tha maps too. Thanks

Sumner better

The Pr. 41, Neustrashimy is introduced in Update 1.97 "Viking Fury" and originally a Golden Eagles premium. But it was removed from sale due to the fleet research changes in Update "New Power".

@@GK-wx8gg Ok thanks, so why is Gaijin promoting it in new videos?

@@GLC-1979 I think they with to sell it again?

@GLC1979 you cant buy it anymore, but the Spokoinyy in the tech tree is basically the same ship.

Spam

range and click basically. Whoever spams the most shots at one ship at a time wins. Keep an eye out for small boats yoloing you. About it. Kinda boring and weird to play as some shots do damage and others dont do sht.

Get really good at leading fire especially opening salvo. First few hits can determine who wins if it's a slugging match.

Thanks Bois

@@N4CR5 unless you get gaijined (aka your ammo detonates at the first hit, which sadly happens very often)

somers is better cause more guns

Ah, a fellow yugumo class enjoyer

most of the maps aren't even big enough to do that. and if they are, you mostly have islands in the way that block the sight to your enemies

DESTROYER DE CHUECK

Moffett reigns supreme

@@groucho1080p NUMERO *DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS*

Sommer or sumner?

Better Turrets

Isuzu isnt a destroyer though, she is a CLAA

@@ghostarmy1106 really? Was a destroyer at some time? Because i kinda remember it being clasified as a destroyer
