What Is The Best Battlecruiser at BR 7.0? [War Thunder]

[@AveragePootis]

The answer is obviously the RN Trento, as it is a cruiser i take into a battle, thus being my favourite Battle Cruiser

[@HamburgerMolester]

😄

[@NecroTree-vm5oj]

That, is the best answer. Thanks for making Me Chuckle dude.

[@SkywalkerWroc]

For its BR Trento is absolutely brilliant. Issue is - the moment you start taking it in a line-up with a higher BR ships it struggles.

[@alexbannykh6603]

Personally:Unchecked the Alaska runs the match if the captain is competent. And on average anyone playing the Scharnhorst just by their mere presence changes the outcome of the match to their favor.

[@charliezw3287]

Alaska is so much easier to ammo rack

[@Lost-Cause.V1]

Scarnhorst is so hard to kill

[@eth_saver]

What do you think about the flooding mechanics?

[@robertsantamaria6857]

Alaska gives me way more trouble to put down than the Scharnhorst. I think it's because the guns are big enough to put the hurt down on a battleship. Scharnhorst just kinda tickles the 7.0 battleships.

[@doughnut3508]

Scharnhorst I feel like a god in. I dont fear much cause I casually sail into the enemy spawn and torpedo everyone which us very stupid and the absurdly low reload allows me to fire so often I can keep the enemy from firing for long periods of time

[@ousou78]

I was kinda expecting the Scharnhorst to be the best. Though very nice guide/ comparison. Its easier to have all stats before your eyes like this than looking at each trees one by one.

[@Napalmratte]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@dragoneye0979]

I love how Kronshtadt violates gaijins rules of never having any of its guns existing but then proceeds to get arguably the best naval guns in the game right now

[@Axi-Sol]

i read somewhere that the gun did exist as surface batteries but i dont have any sources for that

[@ZeroZeroSection]

At this point there's no reason whatsoever for Kongo and Haruna to remain at 7.0, it's a legacy of when their SAP would absolutely slaughter anything thanks to the ridiculous HE aura but after that was fixed there's basically no advantage they carry over a ship like Fuso other than speed and slightly better AA. Their damage output is worse than almost everything else at the same BR and then you've got a ship like Nevada sitting .3 lower because its guns fire more slowly but in return it gets an astronomical increase in protection.

[@kkang2828]

Not to mention Renown…

[@SkywalkerWroc]

They'd have to decompress the top tier, cause Kongo as-is would absolutely slaughter enemies if she would be in 6.7. And they can't decompress it, because it would mean ships built in the WW1 or interwar get to face cold war-era jet bombers, which would be laughably broken.

[@ZeroZeroSection]

@@SkywalkerWroc Texas, Nevada, Marlborough, and the coming Iron Duke and Yamashiro already sit at 6.7 with the only cost being older ammunition that's already overkill against cruisers, there's nothing game changing about a potential Kongo downtier compared to the battleships already there when she has less main battery turrets and an absolutely dreadful secondary gun configuration.

[@kkang2828]

@@SkywalkerWroc 1. Kongo/Haruna going 6.7 will nowhere near affect the balance as much as you think. This is unrelated to decompression, as the Kongos are not suffering from compression. It's just that Kongo's(and by extension Renown's) performance is just way too low for a 7.0, *even* when you consider the current compression. Kongo fits 6.7 performance nicely imo. 6.7s getting downtiers is rare anyways. 2. No. They can always decompress naval BRs. They just need to limit the max BR of aircraft that you can bring into naval. Similar limitations do exist or have existed in various modes within WT, so it is totally possible.

[@sankyu3950]

I agree, playing the haru haru haruna is just asking for me to be a fire magnet as its superstructure and armor does not hold well, its guns hits hard for sure but only 8 shell per salvo with a very thin armor belt and a non existent deck armor located in the middle of the ship which is where its smokestack is near

[@josiahweber7285]

As far as the Kongos go, the IJN called them fast battleships after their refits in the 30s, but still wrote their battle plans regarding them as battlecruisers. When they were refitted, the belt armor was extended, but not increased, which would lead to the loss of Hiei.

Ich stimme dir voll und ganz zu, dass es darauf ankommt, wogegen man gerade kämpft. Aber: aus persönlicher Erfahrung mit ihr kann ich sagen, dass die Scharnhorst trotz der statistisch schlechtesten AP-Granaten ein gefährlicher Gegner für Schlachtschiffe und Schlachtkreuzer ist, was nicht gerade wenig mit der hohen Feuerrate der 28cm zusammenhängt. Vielen vielen Dank für diesen wirklich guten, objektiven und detaillierten Vergleich der Kreuzer. Wirklich, bitte mehr Videos dieser Art. Vorschläge/Wünsche meinerseits für zukünftige Vergleiche: 7.0 Schlachtschiffe 6.3 Schlachtschiffe und 6.3 Schlachtkreuzer (Prognose: die deutschen Schiffe werden ziemlich gut abschneiden) 5.0 Zerstörer, sowohl Tech Tree als auch Premium Reserve Zerstörer und Patrouillenboote 2.7 Küstenflotte (S-701 ist das beste, meiner Meinung nach) 6.0 leichte Kreuzer, vor allem: US Kreuzer vs. Pr.56 Kreuzer Besten Schiffe einer Nation auf einem bestimmten BR (3.3 bis 4.3), Hochsee- und Küstenflotte Beste Küstenflottenbewaffnung, sowohl zwischen den einzelnen Nationen als auch innerhalb einer Nation, aufgeteilt in klein-, mittel- und großkalibrig, mit den Grenzwerten von der Battlepass Herausforderung vom vorletzten BP, bei der es um diese ging Usw, usw.

[@Libarate17]

The stat comparison really highlights the absurd fantasy rail gun like performance of the Kronshtadts shells. With more explosives in the HE shell than all the others and the second highest in the AP shell. Despite being one of the smallest guns. And yet still maintaining the high penetration. Its almost like it was picked to be as meta as possible. The best one really should be Hood. Its got the best combination of speed armour and firepower... on paper. Its just gimped by the massive shell dispersion. Something the smaller calibre guns dont seem to suffer from, this is probably why you found Hood and Kongo inconsistent. But Scharnhorst takes it because its guns are good enough, fire quickly and its damn near un-killable.

[@zohaibtariq7351]

That's Russian bias for you F@*k war thunder

[@kkang2828]

I don't deny that Russian bias exists for Kron, but the way you and most people describe it is wrong. The HE shell is taken directly from the Kommuna. You'll find that it has insane stats there as well. The fact is, it's a light coastal bombardment shell that was never supposed to be fired at ships. It has a very thin casing, which is why it has so much explosive. Think of it as a naval version of Minengeschoss. Many other guns of the period actually had similar shells. The bias here is making such shells work the same as normal HE shells against ships, and giving such shells only to the Russians. It's more a case of an inconsistency bias, rather than a direct performance bias. The AP shell has such high pen only because of the insane velocity. All penetration is calculated based on the same formula in-game. The formula does take into account of how much explosive is in the shell, as well as stuff like weight, caliber, and velocity. The problem is that the formula itself seems to over-factor velocity and under-factor explosive filler ratios. This ends up favoring Russian guns and shells that (historically) tend to have high velocity and high filler ratios, which is probably not a coincidence. IRL this did and would have caused numerous issues regarding barrel life and reliability, but that is sadly (perhaps conveniently) not represented in-game. That is where the bias lies, and it's not just a flat buff to the Kron's guns. This doesn't just affect Kron's guns. Almost all Russian guns are affected by this bias. Italian guns, which tend to have high velocity (at the cost of other factors IRL ofc), are also somewhat affected by this. But their guns also tend to have low filler ratios in return. So tl;dr, the game's systems and inconsistency is what makes the Kron(and other Russian ships)'s guns so biased. It's not a flat out "+100 penetration" kind of arbitrary bias as some people think.

[@chikenCx]

Scharn and krons are by far and away the best battlecruisers in the game right now, (and just ships in general) between the two I probably like the scharn more as both are really tanky (scharn more-so especially broadside as well as against aircraft) but the torpedoes + aa just make it more enjoyable to play but both easily seal club every other ship in the game. The AP on the 11 inch guns has its limits but the fire rate and accuracy make up for it imo, both could be considered but anytime I’m in a krons the only ship I don’t want to fight is a scharnhorst while in a scharnhorst I feel like I could fight any ship.

[@scharnhorstenjoyer1936]

I do agree with the Scharnhorst, but in my personal opinion if you know how to crack the Kronshtadt its really an easy target, i dont really have problems fighting it playing with my japanese for example. Even killed a few kronshtadts with my Paris and Lorraine. Im not saying its bad and it sure hurts A LOT, but it really is easy to ammo rack (tho you need to ammo rack it more than once usually)

[@chikenCx]

yeah completely agree, but if you know what you are doing in the krons you can bow in and just be practically invincible, I agree that the krons is fragile captained by players who don't know how to use its tankiness properly and therefore makes it way more susceptiable to death@@scharnhorstenjoyer1936

[@jonsong4592]

krons are hard to sink but super easy to ammorack. They'll survive you blowing up all the main battery ammo, but itll turn into a giant 152mm gun cruiser for the rest of the game

[@ThunderGod9182]

Great effort Napalm as always.

[@Napalmratte]

Thanks a lot 😊

[@tsuaririndoku]

The reason why Kongo class are lightly armored. Is that Japan still wants Kongo class to be fast so that she is able to catch up with Cruisers and Destroyers in their fleet. Plus, Kongo armor sceme is Classic Dreadnought style armor scheme where they try ti protect everything as much as possible unlike the All for nothing armor scheme where you focus armor on the important compartment. Therefore, Kongo is quite lightly armored.

Alaska I see deleting enemy ships constantly along with the Scharnhorst as well and a little bit of the Kronshtadt as I have seen plenty of people complain about fighting it when in the EC mode.

[@scharnhorstenjoyer1936]

Imo i would say the Scharnhorst. I own all the blue water ships and from my experience its the most reliable. Kronshdats, Alaskas and Kongos are very easy to crack if you know how to, and the HMS Hood isnt really as reliable (especially the shells). It may have the lowest penetration, but it has enough to handle most situations and thanks to its high dpm it would just totally make its opponent suffer.

[@STDRACO777]

The biggest buff in playing as the Scharnhorst is that people target others before you. Rather go for easier kills than spend a long time slowly taking it out. If this was 1v1 the Scharnhorst would not be so dominant.

These tanks got started and mock-ups were made and what have you and now they are unobtainable besides the Maus but no one can get their hands on them unless you researched them a while back. The Kronshtadt or Project 69 heavy cruiser was only a hull that was 10% completethat'ss basically nothing but Gaijin threw in in the game.

Scharnhorst got hit real hard by the new flooding mechanics. Its still super survivable and the best cruiser/weaker battleship killer but it really struggles against the top end battleships and even some stronger battle cruisers like itself and the hood. Hood is probably the best overall aside from the gun dispersion being hilariously bad at times. Good armor and the 15" guns are good at everything but do loose out on dpm. Kongo is fun but just kinda meh... worst protection, not particularly fast compared to the competition and laughable secondaries. Compared to the rest of japan's top end lineup its just not worth it

[@mattjones2303]

I disagree that the Renown and Hood are the same with the hood being better. Far from it - the Renown has a way more advanced secondary loadout of a higher caliber and more AA;s overall as well with pretty much the same armour except improvements to protect the secondaries. Renown is definitely up there as the best BC, but Krodst wins out because of it's paper stats. Russian bias wins
