Top 5 Beginner cruiser mistakes

[@r0b3rt..]

Notes not mentioned: When turning, lowering to 1/2 speed makes the turn sharper than full speed, this is best executed during the last half of the turn so that the speed change and turning tricks the lead your enemies have on aiming at you Second as mention the area is which you overextendeds moves around as either team shift so not moving can mean that the overextended area moves to you, hence why its hard to decide when you're overextended, but a good note is if your flank is outnumbered 3 to 1 (in case the enemy does a lemming train to your cap, YAY!) is a good note to have your ship already kiting, ready to leave when the flank falls -Special circumstances may apply to this rule, such as having a torp DD, CV being present, and your ship type

I would add: a good [experienced] CV/DD player, been hanged on flanks with poor performance 🎭

Angling might be worse than showing broadside when you face a BB with really big guns as those shells need to hit a certain amount of armor to arm and travel quite some distance before exploding. This is why the Japanese light cruisers are so annoying, you just overpen them with BBs. Angling causes the effective armor to become thicker and a shell will spend longer inside the ship when traveling through diagonal. However when facing US BBs you better not get closer than 15 km with any cruiser as the ballistics of the slow orbital shells will make them very effective against cruisers. Just yesterday I devstruck a Roon and an Amalfi with the Iowa in one battle. A very common mistake is not using the consumables. Too often you see cruisers hiding behind islands not using their radar because they can't shoot anything. But your teammates might be able to shoot targets you spot with radar. I even saw cruisers with radar and hydro available getting torped by the first DD wave in Operation Cherry Blossom...

Hey overlordboue! I have a question, how do you play duels?

[@OverLordBou]

Duel of fates? Is a great song

[@AndreYT7000]

@@OverLordBouNo i mean like how do you play the 1v1 with a friend?

[@Cheeseybeaver45]

My issue with playing cruiser isn’t how I play but that I play tier 7 or 8 and get up tiered to the highest degree with no heal and I just don’t know what to do because I can get two shot off the map.

[@zer0her048]

Then play lower tiers. I had the same problem and felt like I was above low tier. 5 and 6 are good tiers with targets, that don’t always fight back perfectly as well as ships that are not as punishing to get hit by.

[@ramtuff06]

I would say that you need to be more conservative when "up tier'ed" that means playing the boat at conservative distance from threats and staying around team mates statistically is healthier, also mini map 🗺️ sit awareness gets more important when "up tier'ed" you gotta position with lower risks

Great guide, thankyou!

[@V3ntilator]

I see people going broadside all the time with any type of ship, ready to receive hits in the citadel. I got countless number of Citadel hits with AP shells even with the small Hill Destroyer. I mainly play Tier V-VIII, because i'm not good enough for Tier X.

[@admiralprinceeric323]

Yeah, I really like about a great guide on playing Cruisers in the general for the game was ever consider on this. Playing cruisers was it ever frustrating like taking up the damage from enemy ships and even shot a citadel in clearly but losing HP in any direction Not much to say of any battles in the game feels like burden off my hands.

Cruisers are dogshit. Hide behind islands if they're available, but still get spotted by a carrier. Miss out the entire match because the meta has supposedly made cruisers a 'late game' assets. Supposedly hunt down destroyers who you can never get close to, because the moment you open fire you are spotted and dev striked by which ever BB looks at you. Break cover into open water dev striked by BB. Can't hide, can't run. can't fight
