It's Normally Not This Good lol - One Take: Preussen 

By far the stupidest thing about German BBs in this game is that historically THEY WERE ACCURATE.

building the main German BB line for accuracy is probably better than building for secondaries these days anyways. if you want secondaries, the battlecruisers exist.

Love the Preussen. It was my second choice of BB after unlocking Vermont. It's better than people give it credit for. I think I'm going to have to give that 7% dispersion mod a try. Btw it was a pleasure playing with you today when you were in one of my games as you played VII Blyska; I was the CV Lexington. o7 keep the vids coming! Would love to see you play the IX Agir.

Thanks for committing to an honest and genuine representation of the game. I like that you don't complain the whole time, but you also show your frustrations and highlight what you don't like. You give a very holistic and genuine representation of warships showing the warts and the fun of the game. I appreciate that your stuff doesn't feel like click bait but legitimate content even if it's not always the best way to grow you channel. I appreciate your approach to this channel and the example you provide.

Its actually one of my highest performing bbs - 150k avg over 20 games. Idk if I got lucky in those games but the guns and tankiness are very good

The thing is: if your preussen isn't working it's because its a fundamentally different ship from the GK: my full tank accuracy (yeah yeah no sec fun I know) is actually working exceptionally well. It's a true flanker because with stealth and tankiness you can actually really annoy other teams

So, is it just me or do battleships, even ones like the Preussen with terrible accuracy seems to just get better grouping and accuracy when shooting destroyers? as a destroyer main, i find battleships are the ships that do the most dmg to me(in one hit).

Currently grinding for preussen, the tier 9 secondaries and tankiness are great but GOD DAMN the fiering angles are AWFUL even when kiting away.

I can only repeat my recommendation to use the range mod combined with the accuracy mod in slot 3 to get better dispersion. Believe it or not, but it works. You wont get a long range sniper, but in the usual combat range of 15-22km it works fine (for me) Btw... it's not the same as using the spotter plane to increase the range. Also, usually shoot while you are angled and not in broadside. Not because of the enemy who would hit you less, but because your guns are closer together (/// /// better than ||| |||) because the ship length shortens in the firing direction when you angle. The value of dispersion is only a value when firing in 90° from your broadside and it shrinks, while you are firing from 45°. Well a native speaker could probably give a better description... As for the healing. You not only get a 5th heal, but also 10% more each heal. So instead of a potentially healing for 71008 (4x) you can potentially heal for 97636 (5x +10%) and that makes a difference. Especially with the Preussen, I had a lot games where I needed the 5th heal and the Preussen is also one of my better survival ships.

I really like this ship. Better than GK for me. But it just doesnt fit this broken random meta.

I bet 94% of the people youre playing against dont even know you...

I see plenty of Schlieffens and GKs and almost 0 Preussens

what mods do you have? specifaically for the bottom left corner where it tells you angles of the ships

I don't have a 21 pointer yet on Preussen but I will forego the secondaries and take the extra heal. Otherwise, perfect build for me.

Honestly this thing is way more manageable than Hannover. You can at least get out alive in Preussen, as seen with the first game, but Hannover, god you get killed on the turn out almost every time. you get even remotely stuck in Hannover its game over for you.

One question: what is the name of this mod on the left side which shows the angle of your ship an the target ship? Thx

"he should die" Ha Nope that doesn't happen anymore

u either have good dispersion or good reload - u know if u keep throwing so much shit at the wall eventually some will stick

I have the feeling that this build is a bit of a Ohio cosplay^^

8:07 The level of irony of complaining about the dispersion then hitting 6 of 8 shells at 18km. Real talk though, German dispersion is actually not that bad, it's basically American/French Dispersion, it's only really the Sigma pattern that's bad, and even then it can be worked with. Most people just forgo the dispersion mod in slot 3 and thus have a 7% disadvantage over French BBs, and a 11% disadvantage over T9+ American BBs. It's also very much a mental thing where everyone is convinced German dispersion is bad, so when you have normal hit rates it feels bad, but then people go on about how accurate the American BBs before T9 are even though they are working with the same dispersion as a secondary build German BB. Honestly these days the German BBs aren't even all that bad, 1.8 sigma the entire line meaning once you learn the accuracy you have it figured out, and with the American dispersion and dispersion mod it makes them actually decently consistent main gun ships. Though the temptation is always there to run them as secondary boats because of the enhanced secondaries. At this point I'd almost call the secondaries a noob trap.

Doesn't have good dispersion... Going back to watch yuro who lazer fired the preussen

SHELLBACK_2 is second LOL

haven't seen a good Georgia game in a while. What about a Georgia one take ?

Played one game watched the shells completely miss at 5km sold it and stuck with my GK

The ship that many players do not want to play. It's a pretty fun ship.

The dispersion on this ship is utter trash. At like 8km i get 3 hits out of 8 guns...

Maybe it's because I don't actually know what I'm doing, that this is one of my better performing ships?

I believe they buffed the accuracy of this ship. Mine does quite well I have a main gun build tank build now. love the overmatch !

Toxic chat is awful in this game. Coop is nice sometimes =)

Hey "Average quality potato", at 11:28ish the music sounded like the ending them of the old "British" TV show The Avengers.....thanks for the review....🏹🤠👍

I really need to start grinding Freddy again. The ship looks fun but I'm still a BB player who likes to push in. Haven't played in a while, and I mean a while. This stay back meta is just so boring in my opinion. I guess I'm just not tactical...

What crosshair are you using?

I only get citadels in this ship when my aim is garbage.

The standard matches don’t really lend themselves to Preussen’s strengths. Really good in Convoy or airship escort.

Should report the border huggers using it to fk over the games aim system etc.

Can someone tell what Mods does he use? The one with the teams and torp range from all the ships and the one with the angles?

Slightly unrelated, but are you planning on doing a video on the Venezia leg-mod/UU?

Preussen charging cap point: Queue in "Erika"

that johan got deleted two times over poor thing

what is the commander build?

lmao 27:57 chat

Can you play the Congress?

me when commnenting

What sights are you using?

literally just finished the FdG grind (for the second time) so this is quite timely.

I don't get why WG did the German BB's like this. Irl the Bismarck was actually one of the most accurate rapid firing ship of it's time, so this dispersion on German BBs I don't get, especially if they want to be historically accurate.

Great vid.

What graphics card do you have?

Like Flamu said, the game seems to shit itself, if you have double-barrelled guns. guess what all german bb/bc get?

First

I can't believe there's someone who thinks heal buff in Armsrace is worth anything Though he used hydro after eating torps so what do I know

German battleships have exactly the same dispersion as the American and British, and slightly better than Italian and French. 1.8 sigma sits in the middle of the pack too.

One thing I love about American BBs, is that I can still get secondaries to full ranges without losing accuracy. Longer range secondaries really keeps some open water gun boat dds always.

I would like to watch your video but there are too many commercials now.

That incomparable at the 2nd game. I bet his stat is below 45% and maybe only 35k avg

You STILL can't play a game without crying! 🤣🤣🤣

What I found is that basically i prefer to play FDG over the preussen. Both have amazing Hull armor, both have hydro, both have enormous superstructure which eats full pens etc. Preussen has just those 457 with overmatch, but what I found is that you won't overmatch what you won't hit and because those two have so bad dispersion i just don't see many instances when overmatch made me hit something- you just miss shells on angled targets, you still seek those juicy broadsides and for that 406 of FDG are enough and for me it's better to take IX place when you do the same that you would do as X

What panels are you using? the autospy ones stopped working
