Destroyers Rule! USS Gearing | Lushun Replays

[@BladeCaptain-RHN]

That was me on the AP mate. 😊 And I love both of these ships in Clan battles.

[@RIPPERDD]

haha great seeing you out there! cheers!

Beautiful dev strike on the Smolensk! That was decisive. A hit like that in ranked on a powerfull cruiser is huge.

[@RIPPERDD]

it was clutch, haha

AP over pen does not deal more damage than HE pen. One Lushun's HE pen deal 462 damage (33% of 1400) in a non saturated part,one Lushun's AP overpen deal 220 damage (0.10x guaranteed overpen damage) and one full pen deal 726 damage (33% of 2200). And Lushun's HE still deal more damage again a saturated french dd. (231 which is 16.5% of 1400). The reason why BBs tend to shoot AP at DD, this is because unless you're a Conqueror the damage difference between the two ammo isn't worth the time wasted switching ammo.

[@satchuck]

It might be that an angled dd gets more pens than overs. Also, I tend to focus AP better so I don't 'waste it' overpenning, and watching a salvo take a big hit adds a psychological boost.

[@maciejbuczkowski8358]

Isn't the reduced AP damage only applied to higher caliber? Just asking, don't know.

[@tsu7206]

@@maciejbuczkowski8358 High caliber only replace the full pen damage (1/3) with the overpen one (1/10). An overpen is still 1/10 no matter the caliber and saturation status.

[@RIPPERDD]

man it takes a PHD to play this game haha

[@BladeCaptain-RHN]

@@tsu7206 actually, what I was saying is that AP over pen is better than HE Non Pens. If you are getting a lot of non pens, switch to AP. This came from this video as Ripper had multiple non pens that I had noticed, and just wanted to bring it to his attention.

[@joedanker3267]

I'm an experienced WOWS player but 95% of that is in BBs and cruisers. I'm now delving into DDs and enjoying them. IRipper has been very instructive to me learning how to DD.

[@RIPPERDD]

Thank you!

[@gamkem1405]

I enjoy playing DD’s the most too! Really like Gearing and now, Chung Mu, Marceau, Vampire II, Dearing, Shimikaze, Hayate, and etc. But my favorite is Yamigiri! The Minegumo is second now. And don’t forget the Yaduchi and the Kidd! Thanks for the video Ripper! o7

[@RIPPERDD]

yep so fun! Thank you!

[@picazzo5150]

WG needs to bring back the Lushun

[@critique7767]

it will be but overpriced like smolensk🤣🤣🤣

[@RIPPERDD]

i don't know, haven't seen many dockyard ships come back

[@BackToRootz]

Thanks for the video. With your different videos I levelled up my Gun Boat games to next level with Marceau, Vampire2 and Lushunstill struggling with Kleber and Khaba

[@RIPPERDD]

heck yeah! Thank you!

[@TheTzuSun]

Appreciate your explanations, keep up the good work!

[@RIPPERDD]

Thank you!

[@BladeCaptain-RHN]

Hey Ripper I've heard that next CBs was T8. So I started comparing, and for me at least, it seems like Lightning and Akizuki look like the top two DD's. What do you think?

[@RIPPERDD]

yep, i'm def going to play akizuki and burn the place down haha Thank you!

[@maciejbuczkowski8358]

OMG! Great battles :). Never would bet that you could win that :D. I always try to copy your style, but struggle to have the accuraccy. Man I suck. Cool, go and make some more of that tips :). And please also randoms. I don't have the skill to get to ranked with X tiers :). Take care

[@RIPPERDD]

np Thank you!

[@boydy7351]

I really wanna see you play Jager, possibly the worst guns of any DD but such a fun ship to play.

[@RIPPERDD]

yeah it's available now in the armory for coal and dubs, so i may check it out

[@boydy7351]

@@RIPPERDD it’s unlike anything you’ve ever played mate, guns are an absolute last resort, AA is pathetic, but the torps, man, so much fun. Decent speed, decent heal, RDF is a must so you can keep running from enemy DD’s.
