This Legendary Mod Is A Gouden Leeuw Buff 

French ship gaining speed every time a Leew misses them with the captain lol

I've been getting great value with my Rhode Island. Pushing a leg Gouden is MASSIVELY powerful in Rhodey. 30s heal... and with full heal build w/ the AA cooldown buff skill, you can have your heal down to 18s cooldown while AA active. Which means Rhodey can get potentially 6 heals with 18s cooldown and guns with 19s or less reload with good HE. Also she's very fast so Gouden struggles to drop bombs on. Rhodey is a beast. Got 120k damage received in my last match with Rhodey, and survived... and she has 77k base HP.

Your nerfing Hallands primary mode of DPM, straight up nerf for extra consumables you dont need...

I was sold on the idea of that extra heal but flamu explained that with how heals work you won't be able to get any value out before your killed.

That's such a pointless "upgrade." You get bugger all out of that extra heal once you take permanent damage into account. Just get the 3pt captain skill. Speed isn't big enough improvement to make it worthwhile, even with a coal booster - you don't have enough dpm to be getting into run and gun scenarios, it's a Halland not a Smaland. The extra aa is irrelevant, the AA is already fine against carriers except the Russian ones and you literally can't do anything against them as they will just drop you and pass through your flack during the immunity phase.

...people really don't understand how heal queue works, huh or how good halland dpm is for that matter 1) halland legendary increases how much damage she queues by 25%, raising it from 50% to 75%. this is absolutely huge. this means that you can heal 75% of all damage you take (100% of fire and flood damage) also note that dds cannot take citadel damage, so it's 75% of everything: torps included 75% heal queue makes it so you can definitely use all your heals 2) do not underestimate halland dpm. halland has 210k he dpm. this is on par with gearing, daring, f. sherman he those guns work, and with the buffed heal, you can outtrade basically any enemy dd other than the super scary gunboats (as long as you can disengage) also, torp reload is nice and all, but you're not necessarily firing torps on cooldown also worth mentioning that the improved speed boost both helps you dodge in dd engages and reposition so halland legendary turns it into a ridiculously tanky hybrid dd. sure, won't necessarily be the best if you play halland at the back of the map, but if you're doing that you're playing halland wrong anyways

@@sillysaili your missing the whole point. An extra heal is irrelevant because there are so few scenarios where you will be able to actually use it. Ships like Lushun and Sevastopol are examples of how sheer healing power as opposed to fast acting heals are broadly irrelevant and a significant downgrade to ships like neutra which can heal comparatively less but over a short time. Halland is not a gunboat, discourage yourself of that notion, the dpm is closer to Hayate than daring and the shell arcs are less than satisfactory. And in the DD Hunter role you lack the radar smaland has to impact meaningfully in a utility sense. You are have a gigantic freeboard and are unable to farm any target unless it’s otherwise occupied. In return for such lacklustre dpm and gunboat potential you obliterate you primary means of doing damage. A waste of resources waste of time upgrade only useful for people who can’t aim torps properly. And if you disagree tell me how this thing is better than any true gunboat, daring Gdańsk hell even grozovoi absolutely eclipse this thing in every way possible!

i do think that comparison is flawed as airstrike share actually very little similarities to normal planes in wows, no global range no spotting for example. I think a better comparison would be to torpedoes as they both share similar ranges and dont get you spotted when you use them. in this comparison AA works similar to torpedo protection reducing damage but not removing it outright, similarly fast maneuvering can lead you to taking no damage at all. The key difference between the two armaments is that airstrikes can be used to strike targets behind islands. They're somewhat like the more versatile but less damaging brother of torpedoes In terms of counterplay its the same as against torpedo boats you either need to push or if thats not possible retreat and seek another opening. Like torpedos but unlike regular planes the airstriking ship needs to be near you to strike you. So unlike cvs you can either leave the area or sink said ship.

That being said, the legendary upgrade still seems pretty strong.

It is OP.

​@@alpha1games275I agree and disagree. Yes because of spotting and stuff it's not like a CV. But it's also for shure not like a torpedo. The thing is torpedos need a lot more time to travel and are much harder to predict where the enemy ship is going and you have more time to dodge them. Also they deal less damage. If we compare to shimakaze torps which are one of the best in the game qnd assume that the alpha damage is kind of the same they deal less damage because you can get much more fires on a ship than water breakes and every single bomb that hits the ship hast a 39% fire chance and fires have am much higher dpm than floods. Also if you ompare the potential dmg per drop of shima torps (12km) and Air drops just the alpha damage of shima is 357k vs 979k (and this without floods or fires) all calculated without upgrades or mods. And now we forgot that shima trops reload 153 seconds and the air drops with 100 seconds 1,5 times faster. Also for torpedos you have a hydro on a lot of ships. Yes I know you have defensive fire, but now I need this as "counter play" for CVs and Air drops and also you a defensive fire reloads 80s. A Goulden Lewmwith that mod 60s. So maybe your right that in terms of mechanic its more comarable to a torpedo but in terms of counter play its much more like a CV (you don't have one).

It's leg mod gouden leuww so it has 3 air strikes with improved reload times so if u have the chance u can use all 3 and have short reload time on them...without the leg mod it suffers with the air strikes due to one less airstrike and very long cooldown

I think especially in this match he saved his dfaa for when the cv is a serious thread for him (like at 9:16). Because of the long cooldown of those it its not worth to "waste" it for example on some torpedo-planes attacking him from the rear since the torps wont hit anyway... This would be my guess

Yep one of the very few things WG was able to get right

@@MartialEmperor6344 Yep, I wish they were all like that.

Agree. Way too many UUs give way too bad penalties for what they offer in return. Often reload mod and concealment mod are just straight up the better pick.

Unique Upgrades were advertised as sidegrades from the beginning to prevent powercreep.

it's a game wrecking example of massive powercreep. Imagine trying to be a battleship and getting spammed every 15 seconds by an almost guaranteed fire, by a ship that can just sit behind an island (or outside detection range) 13km away, damconing a double fire only to get whacked by a triple or quad fire. And god help them if a div of these show up, it completely unbalances the match because it makes battleships obsolete. It needs to be nerfed. That thunderer got whacked for 71k damage and blown up, in 50 seconds of which only about 15k came from main guns. If you compare it to the garbage UU's of other ships (eg Kremlin's godawful, massive downgrade) it's crazy, this ship with the legmod has world record damage potential for sure.

If it's British or French you will pen the deck, everyone else you are going to shatter. The British and French are the only ones who still have 32mm decks at T10/Super.

Highly recommend Ohio.

@@Ken_Koonz i know it's ridiculously strong, but i do have similar gameplay on Georgia and West Virginia '44. Slava's guns seem very alluring to me, given how I don't play soviet ships in general, and dont have steel for Stalingad

@@BSoDexe Slava is great in randoms but the 16 inchers struggle with nose-in ships in competitive modes like ranked and clan battles. In randoms though, she is awesome. I got a Kraken with her on my maiden voyage with no mods. Best of luck with your choice!

Don't forget that Ohio is god tier when it can pushes. If you want to play it in random good luck with that.

@@Ken_Koonz I don't play clan and ranked so should be fine
