The nerf probably came in mind of Lutjens. With Lutjens active, Z-42 has about 10k higher AP DPM than harugumo even post nerf, and that seems to be what they are aiming for. A gimmicky harugumo with the weakness against torpedoes removed. IMO this is a reasonably strong steel ship, something like shikishima if you want a comparison - as strong as the tech-tree one, but with some gimmicks and some weakness mitigated. As for the new european DD branch - I'd say don't worry about it, there's no way such a jack-of-all-trade with such absurd strength makes it into the game. One way or another they will be nerfed into oblivion, the only question is how.

I think you really want to get grease the gears esp. with Lutjens. You've got so many things boosting your gun DPM, but that doesn't matter if you whenever your guns are off target due to traverse. Lutjens gives you 20% for 1 point I think that makes are more sense then some of the other commander skills you took.

Damage numbers performed here look very good, maybe I am wrong, but it seems to me, that DDs main goal is not dealing damage, but rather more goals, incl spotting (damage), capping and dealing with enemy light armor alot. I think it is finally reflected by different damage achievements for each class. Nobody really wants Harugumo DPM copy with extra german hydro and brittish fast smoke, that would make it DD undertaker. I am bit dissapointed by its torpedo set, either quintuples or 12km would be ok for steel ship, but this just seems you gonna have troubles when radar ship stay there and gun traverse speed won't help much. But it's more gunboat, so bit weaker on torps is ok. That unusual combo of fast smokes and german hydro seems the thing what makes it worthy of consideration finally (sorry if I am repeating your words, SLM).

So literaly zero chance to owerpen on DD hulls, only if you hit some thinner superstructures. Other questions - why not IFHE ? You would pen 32, just like your ( mentioned ) german 105mm secondaries, which you know what that mean - all the 27, 30, and 32mm things being not shatters but pen dmg. Well, we will see us later...

My theory build for this is Preventative Maintenance, Last Stand, Survivability Expert, Concealment Expert, Adrenaline Rush, Grease the Gears, Extra-Heavy Ammunition, Main Battery & AA Specialist, Demolition Expert. Basically same build but drop SI for Demolition Expert + Grease the Gears. SI isn't that valuable because no heal and high smoke count. Grease the Gears is great because of the traverse, and the Demolition Expert has an oversized impact on Z-42 because it helps out the weaker HE and boosts your firestarting much more in proportion to any other ship because the base fire chance per shell is so low (5%). Bringing it up to 6% with DE is 20% more fires. Combined with quarter-pen and the extremely high shells per minute, the HE isn't really that bad once you add DE into the mix. I use the same build on Z-35 which feels similar. Another option is finishing with Consumables Expert instead for +10% on the hydro; with the hydro coal mod, you can bring it up to 156 seconds which makes loss of SI hurt even less.
@tmGrunty
@tmGrunty Жыл бұрын
I'd also drop the SI but instead of Demolition Expert I will probanly pick up Consumables Enhancement for longer Hydro and Speed Boost duration. I don't think the extra 1% fire chance will make a difference so I'd rather have longer consumables, espcially considering you lose 1 charge of them due to not having Superintendent.

Seems like a well-balanced ship, especially for a recent design. They used the number from a cancelled 1936b hull, which allowed them to work with the Tier VIII Z-35 hull. Swapping out the standard 128mm surface-only single mounts for dual-purpose 105mm twin mounts would be a logical choice for work in the English Channel in the mid to late war as the Allies gained air superiority. In short, enough gimmicks to keep a Tier VIII hull viable in the gimmick-rich Tier X environment, but not overpowered. A minor disappointment in getting the conventional depth charge rails rather than the depth charge throwers of the real 1936b destroyers. It would be nice to be able to land depth charges on subs without having to run right over them. But both AA and ASW upgrades are kissing-your-sister perks anyway. Not like you are ever going to be able to actually counter skilled players in WG’s favorite ship classes. That’s a lot of steel, though. An expensive commodity.

Yeah, very interesting, a "well-balanced ship". Funny how only the German ships get "well-balanced" and literally every other nice looking idea gets OP or super OP properties to make it fun, engaging and lasting in the game. The only exception is the recent line of Japanese cruisers, which are mostly dogshit. Z-42 appears to be one of the weakest Steel ships - I would even prefer the Somers because it still has got the torpedo power. For a gunboat the Z-42 is not good enough. I have checked my today's games again before commenting here: 11 games so far, games with NO radar cruiser in the enemy team: ZERO. Games with radar cruisers having 10 km or 12 km radar range: 8 out of 11. The other 3 games were Salem's, Plymouth's and so on. So how viable is such a ship when only unicums or super-unicums can really enjoy it. Why waste the Steel when at the same time Ragnar is available, or when new smoke-radar tech tree DD's are released etc. etc. Why playing the Z-42 when the Daring is a well-proven tech tree ship? Even the Black in Tier 9 makes more sense because it has the long range torpedoes which hit hard. The torp speed of 45 kn is irrelevant. Smoke and radar is so nice that even normal players can obtain great results in ships like the Black. To me, Z-42 is dead on arrival, because for some reason they decide to "balance" the ship. And don't get me wrong, I wish they would return to a more traditional rock-paper-scissors approach and make all ships have significant downsides...but that's not what WG is doing. They continuously release bullshit stronK ships with a million consumables and gimmicks, so that - in comparison - German ships make no sense in 9 out or 10 cases. They are too balanced to be competitive for more than 75% of the player base. Think about bullshit like Friedrich, Pommern, etc. including the Meta morphing into more and more passive, stale gameplay, punishing brawling.

Plymouth is a good ship. It trades a bit of DPM for straight up alpha, which actually is a VERY good trade when you consider that one of the biggest problems that makes radar mino absolutely dented is that DDs with a brain just angle to you the moment you radar them, so you only really get one good salvo of damage. I'd rather do a good Plymouth salvo than a good Minotaur salvo. Furthermore, Minotaur has to choose between smoke and radar. Plymouth just gets both. So you can smoke up near a cap circle and anyone who tries to approach you will get radared and farmed. You're a complete no-go zone for DDs, and unlike Mino, they can't even see you.

I don't think It's worth the steel, especially for those who are in clans that doesn't do that much battles, those who doesn't get to rank 1 every season (because not everybody has that much patience to garbage players). It could've been an awesome gimmicky coal ship tho. Looking at other steel ships, they have a lot more gimmicks than this. One has Satsuma guns with harugumo secondaries, one is basically a cruiser with 508mm guns, other one has literally everything but only the caliber is small (which doesn't matter that much unless you are firing ap to angled target, but why would you), one is alsace but gazillion times better, no need to talk about fdr, sap psycho austin, etc etc. This ship feels a bit meh compared to these.

I got it. I have not used it yet. No time with work. Plus I hate subs, superships, and CVs. So t10 games are not a regular thing for me anymore. I have the base reload down to 4 seconds. I am running the Hydro module and Grease the Gears. I am considering also using the Turret Rotation module, currently using the -7% dispersion module. Gotta play a few games before deciding. I am using the Adrenaline Rush and the 4pt Brawler skill (detected bonus to reload), trying to get the gun output set up for fighting DDs and closer ranged fights (ie at caps or in the end game). Just my initial thought, Vampire II might be the better option. I'll figure it out once I play a good ten or so games. I really enjoy Vampire II. On a side note: Submarines are such bullshit it's ruined the game for me. When they're added to ranked I will be down to Clan Battles being the main mode I play. If subs get added to CBs I will be leaving the game. WarGaming can kiss my ass. EDIT After five games I have decided I am not going to try and kill DDs like a DD hunter. The guns hit hard, the AP anyway. The Hydro is nice with the short burst smokes, but the dpm isn't enough to make up for the clumsy maneuverability (for me) and the fact everything has radar or hydro so the smokes were not helping me. I'm switching to IFE and Main Battery Specialist. I'll play outside and work my way in. I got Cv focused twice and averaged 22 planes a game. Not sure if that's good or bad, but I think I did ok.

I think it would have been better if nerf the torpedo and burf the main gun a little more. Current performance is more like a coal ship than a steel ship

So lets review: poor concealment (compared to the tech tree), smaller/worse guns (low fire chance, slow rotation), no heal, low torpedo damage....you played very well, yet a tier 8 tech tree submarine did better....

PQ, I see you have 250 ships: If you played one each for a FULL match in Random, that'd be 5,000 minutes of your life gone (& probably your sanity too) Signed: A player with not even 100 ships lol

I liked the original idea of it. A DD knife fighter that could hold its own with the likes of Smaland/Daring/Vampire but have monsterous AP that makes showing broadside terrifying in a dual. They definitely overnerfed it.

I have almost every tier X dd in the game (ragnar) and Z-42 is already one of my favorites. The ONLY thing I fear in her is Smaland. It murders everything else. The Hydro trap, insane ap against DD's and short burst smokes are a VERY powerful combo when utilized correctly.

The Z-42 is worse than the Z-52 in every single way except it has 10% better DPM....which is completely negated by having worse shell arcs, much worse turret traverse, and HE not penning 32mm. The audacity to charge steel for a boat that is objectively worse than its tech tree counterpart and offers no playstyle difference is insane.

You're on crack if you think Z-52 is better than Z-42. Z-42's guns can pen 32mm if you take IFHE and the AP shreds DDs due to its low arming threshold of 18mm. Also, Z-42's short burst smoke is WAY better than Z-52's garbage smoke generator because it allows Z-42 to effectively farm ships and reposition quickly if needed.

The way you deal with this thing is so simple! Just wait for his smoke to be vanished! Wait with your kleber Marceau Daring then z42 don't have the dpm or the hp to keep up! This ship need baff at least 50.000 HE dpm
