Target is flat, any situation and won't be flat for more than 10s, use the burst. Engagement will last 20s or less, use the burst (time to shoot two bursts is identical to time to shoot six salvos, and you get improved dispersion). Target leaving range, use the burst. Battleship just shot guns and you need to shoot for a couple seconds and get dark before he reloads, use the burst. Alvaro is one of the better solo Q DDs in the game if you know what you're doing. 10/10 worth getting for coal, excellent ship that actually rewards good play and isn't just purely overpowered. The penalty to DPM by using burst is very exaggerated and there are many, MANY engagements where two bursts is objectively better than even 8-10 normal salvos. Your torpedoes also have the lowest reaction time (we don't count Khaba because we have room temp IQ) in the game among torpedoes that can hit destroyers, leading them to be excellent at zoning and if a ship doesn't have hydro they're nearly as undodgeable as deepwaters for BBs and cruisers.

You're good on the pronunciation of the name, except Bazan where the is pronounced like a hard as in .

The "burst fire mode with improved accuracy" is modeled after real-life technology Spain was experimenting with in 1945. (/sarcasm)

@TheDgamesD 3 ай бұрын

a key way i love using the alt burst is typically when fighting other DD’s when they’re around 1/3 health left, or kiting away to go dark, or when about to go behind a island etc

Bazoo is grossly underrated, even before the first buff and still after the second buff. I think it would be more popular if there was a Spanish DD tree. The most underrated element of the ship is its torpedoes. 90 sec base reload, 13.5km range, but the real kicker is 1.1km detect. This is about as stealthy as you can get for non-DWT torps. Sure, 56kt sounds slow, but you can zone people the way 20km Shima wishes it could. Just fire the torps where enemies need to go.

RPF on Alvaro is super, super strong because it allows you to ensure you have your guns ready and pointed at an enemy DD to burst fire them. Also helps you survive because you know where to expect torps from. It's much more useful than the extra Range captain skill imo and it honestly feels mandatory on Alvaro, especially when she doesn't have hydro or radar.

I feel like the funny button gets compared to MBRB a lot but the use cases are different and more nuanced. By pure numbers you lose DPM when using alt fire in a sustained firefight which is why it shouldn't be used as default. When disengaging or fighting low health ships, you have that instantaneous increase in DPM and accuracy where you can maximise quick opportunities more efffectively than MBRB. Used properly, alt fire can effectively improve your DPM overall since you're not firing all the time.

Since I can't recall you doing it yet, could you please also have a look at Hector? I am now kinda interested in her and Plymouth and wondered what would be more fun. Also Alvaro looks decent but you rarely see it in randoms so I kinda overlooked it till now. Maybe when I have coal in absurd amounts (e.g. After the birthday event) I will get but only after Hayate.

i like its speed and alt fire mode..it can blap off 24 shots and kill destoyers easy up close. The low shell projectile velocity is because of the short barrel

@sirdancealot2645 4 ай бұрын

The most powerful thing for this ship in Randoms is people not knowing what the hell a Bazan is lol. I think you are on point with this review. This is a mid-level top tier gunboat with some torp and burst alpha capability. It is nothing spectacular but also is not a canon fodder so be aware when a Bazan is present. I have much better ships(as you do) to fill the role of Bazan but I genuinely enjoy playing this DD time to time.

I think these things often get too wrapped up in math at the expense of psychology. A full health destroyer player getting hit by three quick barrages from 132s is more likely to think about running than how each ships DPM stacks up.

@vitezslavlorenc3479 Ай бұрын

The biggest problem of this ship is how huge it is. You take torps like boss in this clumsy shit and also DPM is not something great. I would take even some tier 9 DDs into game, rather than this. Torps are sea mines so you cant really aim at something you just release them and pray for it to hit something. Not really a big fan of this torp style.

@IntelCorei-KProcessor-go2to 4 ай бұрын

The burst fire is insanely toxic. If the enemy DD is half HP or under you're guaranteed a trade no matter how low you are. You can have 300HP and you'd still 10K them, and they might not even answer back.
