The American destroyer line has been a favorite of mine for many, many years... but Tier X's USS Gearing always felt like a downgrade from Fletcher at Tier IX. The recent re-model of the ship caused me to revisit it on a recent stream, and I was pleasantly surprised with the results. This game on Loop is a long, drawn-out affair that very nearly ends for me earlier than I would like. New Gearing definitely feels better, but I need more games in the ship before I'm ready to declare her a true upgrade over Fletcher.

We've been having fun in our clan by closing the night of clan battles out with a 'meme' div off all Gearings. Surprisingly we've won when we've run this and had a heck of a lot of fun.

Held together with duct tape and spit. Any other ship could have sneezed and you and it would have been over. Well done! Going to send this to the old man?

@SeaRaptor 2 года назад

Nah, it isn't that incredible of a game, just a solid result after getting smashed so early.

@mihaitha Год назад

If I remember correctly, Jingles said that the old model of Gearing was thicker than it should have been, causing AP shells to arm and full pen her, when they should have overpenned.

@SeaRaptor Год назад

The old system where BBs could full pen DDs was bad for nearly all destroyers, but Gearing felt it more than many because of her beam. She was definitely thicker than Fletcher - with more armor than a typical DD - and you would routinely get slapped around by battleship AP. It was not an enjoyable experience.

I can argue for Z-31 being the worst experience possible in this game

@SeaRaptor 2 года назад

It's awful. I don't understand how they released that ship as-is.

@civilbeard 2 года назад

I noticed your torpedo range is shorter than mine. Are you running the early torps? If so, why?

@SeaRaptor 2 года назад

As pointed out, these reload faster and hit harder (with a higher flood chance). The speed and stealth of the torpedoes is the same, so there's no change there.

@jeffriley3744 Год назад

after shooting or Torpedoes how do you follow them and zoom in on them?

@SeaRaptor Год назад

Hit "Z".

@Peterax788 2 года назад

Why not take the other torpedoes of Gearing, on paper they are better right?

@Myomer104 2 года назад

The extra range doesn't matter as much as the massive difference in damage.

@SeaRaptor 2 года назад

They have a longer range for less damage and flood chance. I prefer these that hit harder but have less range. For me, I'm confident in my ability to deliver these torpedoes in the majority of instances and not take catastrophic damage from radar or the like. There's nothing wrong with the long-range ones, it's just a personal preference.
