Furutaka. Best TT BB at the tier. And one of my personal favorite cruisers. Glad to see her get some love.

MOST IJN cruisers do really great with full agile builds using Mikawa.

Ever since I watched a very old Tbull video where he recommended Mikawa, I have been using Mikawa.

Love this series (at least I hope it's a series). Most CC's focus on the builds at tier-8 or legendary, but the builds at tiers 4-6 can be just as illuminating, especially for players that are starting a new line.

Finally! A video showcasing the vitality and virtues of the Furry Taco! I always liked this ship. Well Done! Dear Xarkun, If you're reading this I want to invite you to take a look at the Flandre with a reasonably leveled-up Grimlock. I've been conducting tests using him and his unique skills with a full secondary build (Haruna/von Hipper) that is yielding some interesting results, at least for me. Cheers! -Moony

nice real world game play, i like the no cherry picking not all games are zingers. i like how you talked through what you were doing take note all you new players. Japanese cruisers played well can be a real pain. Look forward to your next instructional video.

Was in a match today with a Furutaka who thought he was a DD and decided to pass me as the Spotter, and like you said don't attract attention he did and died right off; wish he had watched this. Had a real close game, but another cruiser was Afk. but we are having fun I suppose lol. Maybe some day since WG don't do it they would give links to you CCs and peeps could learn, what a concept.

Wow! You just made my life much easier in WoWL. I would bounce back and forth with commanders, like cruiser commanders, instead of using an off ship commander to check base stats.😎

Just finished grinding this ship. Hated it because I get rinsed in it. Now I know why. I was trying to dodge because I didn't know I could ricochet, and overpenning cruisers because 8 in guns.

Do the Konigsberg please. I only have 500 battles in this game but I play the Konigsberg a lot. I think I have it setup for AP because when a cruiser shows it's side to me it's back to port for them. The only problem with the ship is when a battleship even looks at me. Then I'm back at the port haha.

Yo you should try the Kirishima Megalomania build on French battleships it’s really funny. Kirishima is my main IJN commander.

God, Furutake was such a disappointment to me back in open beta. Reload was at least 17 sec. (or maybe even 20, I don't remember). Coming from the Kuma with its fast firing 140mm guns, the Furu was a gigantic kick in the balls. I didn't even bother to learn the playstyle, free XP'd my way to the Aoba and never looked back. Now the Furu seems to be better than the Aoba, tier for tier.

@davefinfrock33247 ай бұрын
Never liked this ship. One continual irritation was the B-hull variant should be the same as Aoba (more or less) as it is on PC. Legends didn't go that direction, but it's still annoying and limits what should otherwise have been the premier T4 cruiser. The six semi-turrets are the poison pill. The guns themselves are effective, but the traverse is poor and the firing angles simply suck. There's no fixing this and you're fighting your own ship as much as the red team. I much prefer Genova, since it has a much better arrangement of armament with the concomitant better firing angles.
@Xarkun7 ай бұрын
The turret setup is obsolete and not ideal, but I think the ship is still fine. The firing angles might not be ideal, but the speed and rudder are both great, so you can maneuver pretty effectively as I think I was able to demonstrate and also keep all the guns firing while protecting yourself.

So you must play on a PC on Xbox the base model points are 28 300 the guns are only 200 mm reload time is 15 minutes range is 12.1 km HP max damage 4500 HE 3300 turret rotate 36 seconds torpedo damage 14 600 Grange 6 o’clock hours, speed 63 k t Max speed, 34.5, rudder shift 9.2 concealment 10.7 I knew world of warships was fucking ass on Xbox this is why people on Xbox get smoked by PC players and if you’re like me you will keep them blocked and not play cross platform or you will get smoked
