[@RedXlV]

@@DavidMartin-ym2te Good point. Ideal situation is for your own team to be only a little bit better than the enemy. That way you have time to inflict your own damage.

[@jamielonsdale3018]

Best thing is to have your enemy be 3/10 skill, your team be 2/10 skill, and you be the unicum. If not that, then you want your team 9/10 skill and their team 8/10 skill. That way it's a snowballing victory that takes a bit of working to get going, and you feel like you did something, even if you die fairly early.

So when you make it the 1.4s minimum reload that the Friesland has, it actually isnt that scary compared to 7k or 3.5k. I mean its cruiser style DPM on a DD but still, its not insanely high or anything

[@MrShadowpanther3]

I spotted ships and the support killed them. Words I can RARELY utter when I am running DD. My teams seem to like to fight 20 km behind the fight. Even the cruisers.

[@jamielonsdale3018]

Get closer to your team, even if it means you aren't contesting the cap. It's always better to stay alive reliably than hope to be lucky and get the cap. It also allows the other team to push in closer to your team, meaning that they have less choice but to support you while you screen their engagement.

This ship get so strong as the match goes on. Had a match today where I really had to just hang back and wait for chances to support, and by the end I really felt that I was the deciding factor in the win. Only 100k damage and two kills, but tone of spotting damage, and was able to smoke 2 BB's and spot to keep them alive while they still dealt damage. Great ship

[@walterengler5709]

Had a game recently and both teams had a Friesland (and 2 dd's per side no cv all same tier as Friesland). Our teams Friesland refused to enter the cap or even try to scout, hid behind an island and a cruiser who wasn't watching his moves went to far forward and was obliterated by spotting from the other side. He then proceeded to run around moving behind other team ships like BB's and such. Their Friesland was more like the one in this video and other the other side of the map helped his team spot, used cover to then fire (fast), etcetera.. Eventually the enemy Friesland even sunk ours and ended with two kills. Ours had none. Side note their Fries had a 51% win rate overall, ours 47% .. and it showed man it showed. And when people complained in chat about his failing on basics he whined it's not built for that and it's too risky to push with the ship. Sigh. Sure the Fries is not a torp boat or as stealthy. But it still as hell can spot enemy ships further away than a cruiser. You just have to play it differently to get that spotting, aid your team, and then take your melt a ship shots when you can Just like the French DD's. They can still spot but you have to do better at play with them as you can't smoke. Heck if you can learn to play a French DD well you do even better in Jap ones afterwards as all your DD techniques improve and then you have smoke again as an added protection. But most players in WoW are one trick ponies with limited thinking and so they all head to spot "X" on a map not matter where they start or they do "Y" as they can't figure out how to do better. Just like the player who sailed across the map and responded to a lemming comment that grouping ships for firepower is the best thing to do in warfare (small groups working together yes .. all the ships in one damn lemming spot no). They can't handle complex thoughts and so ships like the Fries will always fail with them at the helm.

[@seanelucero]

agree with your comment about earning dmg record the right way. no bs. well done sir

[@jamielonsdale3018]

You misrepresented the turning circle advice. If you're going full speed, dropping to 1/4 as you turn WILL tighten up your turn. However, for consistent speed, the most effective speed is 2/3. This basically means juggling between 2/4 and 3/4 to keep the speed just right. If that's too intensive, then 3/4 going into the turn, 2/4 about half way into the turn to tighten it up a bit, and then 3/4 again to provide more water pressure against the rudder. It's basically a matter of balancing the speed so you don't drift wide in the turn, and the water pressure against the rudder so you can actually turn at all.

[@scotthill2865]

I have had the Blyskawica for a while and have a 19pt captain that I now use on my Friesland also. I use same build except on captain i use expert marksman for the slow turrets on Blyskawica. This gives a little less dpm when damaged but it works for both ships.

I think its weird the Friesland doesnt get torps. Like doesnt it have torpedo tubes on the front of the ship? or is that something else?

[@Ride2Vibe]

Those are anti submarine rockets They will become useable when the sub patch arrives

[@janzzen1]

The bloody thing costs 63 euro..... Even the Lenin bb only costs 47. What is that good for?

[@tosyl_chloride]

Just grind for it using free XP, and you can get this little DPM monster without spending a cent. As for me, I grinded 800k and bought the last 200k with doubloons, so that was a reasonable price imo.

[@magecraft2]

So radio location is worth more than superintendent and preventative maintenance? I really like RL but get a lot of use out of the consumables on the ship so was thinking down that path. Currently 15 pts with the standard 10 pt build and BFT guess I will have to think about this now :)

[@FirehawkBV]

I've never got such low attention from a CV (especially USS Enterprise or the ships which you come upon more often, Shokaku or Midway). Battle will look a lot different then. But it's situational ofc, like team play is nowadays. Still, awesome hustle Flam. Keep it up!

[@jamielonsdale3018]

Perhaps because every CV worth their salt knows that striking a Friesland is only worth it as a last resort. And even then, it probably still isn't worth it.

[@rowinglove4ever]

Friesland now is a rare ship right? rare ships cant get ''balance changes ''?? so this means that Friesland cant be changed when Groningen can get for example a nerf at the main battery reload from 1.6 seconds base to 1.8? is that accurete?

If subs are going to be added into game i hope friseland will not get funcional anti-sub rockets in the front of the ship, he would be ultimate submarine killer.

[@jamielonsdale3018]

It's basically guaranteed that it will. It's also likely many BBs will be given Hedgehogs (depth charge mortars) even if the real version of that ship never had them. This will allow a BB to at least do something to counter the sub, even if it's largely just for show.

8:38 Re, full hitpoints Iowa just chilling, not helping I'm relatively new to the game, but a year and a half after this video and this is how I see most (not all, but most) Iowa players behaving. I actually had one in a ranked match tell me he was "defending the cap". The entire enemy team that was still alive was spotted ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MAP. He had no firing solution on the spotted ships. There was obviously nothing pressuring the cap he was "defending". This is something I generally see in lazy battleship players, but the American BBs (Iowa, in particular) just seem to be absolute shit magnets, attracting the worst players who aren't intent on winning or contributing to the team in any way. I haven't played those ships. Maybe they have a great fishing upgrade or mod that helps them find good fishing locations.

[@Waldherz]

The issue with the Iowa is that you MUST NOT ever show your rear. The Iowa basicaly only has 16mm citadell armor at the rear. So its pretty hard to actualy go in and then never show your rear to anyone. Most Iowa players just got really sick of this and thats why thery stick to the rear and never go in. You can get citadel hits from 100mm DDs.

[@jamielonsdale3018]

Also, not only is it over £50, it comes with a -wait for it- ZERO point captain. Enjoy grinding out a ship with a 0pt captain guys, because you have literally 0 reason to use any other pan-EU captain in this DD as this is pure dakkabote and the rest are primarily dangerpylonbotes that have decent guns, mainly on virtue of their RoF. You shouldn't be building the tech-line pan-EU DDs for their guns.

[@mastersanada]

So... TL;DR no torps no speed boost means you have to be very flexible and aware of what is going on to get the maximum use out of your smokes and hydro. Or in other words, you better be damn good at the game or you’re gonna hate this ship.
