Ah, I love me some Tashkent!

[@metajerk]

Just combine the Tashkent & Albemarle and you get the perfect ship!

[@TheDelfel]

Lol I lost it for the censored ship that will not be named. So good.

[@metajerk]

Thats some patent pending ••••••••-B-Gone right there..

[@desertpunk6705]

I’m just curious why?

[@metajerk]

@@desertpunk6705 because 1. It’s a running gag here and 2. That ship is ridiculously OP and so I do my part to remove it from existence.

[@barrrettgunn]

Mr. Jerk! I was the Massachusetts on your team when you played the Abruzzi

[@barrrettgunn]

Also you snatched the kill I was going to snatch for first blood 😡

[@metajerk]

Haha, well.. this is what happens when Live stream Chat convicts me to buy that ship! GG

[@notthatproud7453]

Yo, Jerk, I had to ram you in my Baltimore this morning. I saw you on the other side and didn't have anyone backing me up. When you popped up around that island, I figured the best way for me to help win that game was to try to take you down. It just happened to be a ram. Don't feel bad, though, I've also rammed VII Hipper. I won't stop until I ram all the KZbinrs!

[@metajerk]

Haha nice work 😂 yeah, got caught a little over extended.

Noice, I am up to the Minsk, and just picked up the Fletcher as well, I already have the Z-23 😂😂😂 you can see where this is going lol. I love me some gun boats. Great match bud as always. Didn’t get to catch too much of your stream due to wife aggro lol.

[@metajerk]

I think it was on discord that they alluded to a buff coming to the fletcher down the line as it is the lowest performing T7 DD, which blows my mind... but hey... its my fav so ill take what they want to give.

[@michaelvanasse5767]

@@metajerk no complaints, Z-23 was my first since I loved the German line on PC and I had the Z-52, then The Fletcher even though I only have about 10-12 games with her I am not disappointed at all, so now I am working for the Mighty Tashkent 😂😂😂

[@mightymacgregor769]

@@metajerk it seems the American ships are a lot of players first lines. I wonder if they had advanced stats to separate the performance numbers of players below say, 200-300 games played vs how experienced player play them.

@@mightymacgregor769 I'm sure they can, but this game definitely seems to cater to making things easier for the average player

[@michaelm8193]

Searched in your Kraken Playlist about the Kamikaze....isn`t there any vid of Kamikaze at your Channel or would it be too easy to achiev

[@metajerk]

No vid as I don’t have it. But I do think it is pretty busted too.

[@cbd_gaming86]

tashkent you don't see those muuch today

[@metajerk]

Which is a shame, or maybe not, because they are actually very good.. but because they aren't sub 5 km concealment, they aren't as easy.. but they can be absolute terrors

[@wiz_shelby]

well it's a different playstyle and not everyone feels that it is enjoyable. Personally, I had a lot of fun while grinding the line. Once you accept the fact that you don't have any usable torpedos, it just starts to click. By the end of the grind, I was having 70-80k guns only game in the Minsk, while killing the red DDs.

[@metajerk]

I liked all of the, (excluding the Gnevny).. The Minsk was a hoot... but yep, not for everyone..

[@cbd_gaming86]

@@metajerk Gnevy just need a little kick in the tin can and you can do miracle things. I like her but her transverse does question if she was meant to be a lower tier

[@DerkaGames]

Was that DD in C populated by a bunch of nudist sailors? Lmao I laughed out loud. Good stuff.

[@metajerk]

Something like that... when I say a ship should be removed I mean it! 😎

[@coalkuelker3208]

Rumble! The commander is Rumble. Same as Bubblebee on the Fletcher. I picked up Optimus Prime as well when the were available

[@metajerk]

Yeah, Rumble.. Having the extra range they provide locked behind a paywall.. no bueno.

[@coalkuelker3208]

@@metajerk i was lucky enough to unlock Optimus, Rumble, and the Bismarck pera camo (Decepticon Megatron) out of the chests you could've earned. Given I am half Scot/Irish. Figured thats why i have lucky pulls

[@nuke2099]

I wonder if a Makarov build with double rudder would work on Taskent like it does with Khaba. I use Khaba like a annoying fly and a small cruiser that can't be citadel.

[@metajerk]

Definitely will, but Tashkent’s rudder is also much faster than khabas to begin with.

[@joeboyd3274]

Just bought Minsk last night...

[@metajerk]

Personally, I thought that was where the line started to get fun

[@fiftycalfox187]

I run Sims and Vian as inspirations and the extra damage over detectability and rarely use the torps

[@metajerk]

I think thats one of the reasons this ship is so good.. lots of versatility... any ship that you can cater to many different ways proves to be pretty good in my book

[@fiftycalfox187]

@@metajerk I ran a nasty duo with my buddy either German bbs, or the underage ships

[@berzec]

Perfect when a destroyer is a cruiser at the same time so you lose less points when u die

[@metajerk]

Ha, thats a really good point.. hadn't thought of that.. kinda like how Siegfried is a battleship but with cruiser points.

[@berzec]

@@metajerk wait for a destroyer that acts like tirpitz, dont know if that’s even a thing

[@berzec]

@@metajerk kaba is more of Atlanta, fast and deadly. I mean like a destroyer with big guns and good enough torps

[@dimosthenistserikis5901]

You think a Von Essen build for the extra fire chance would work? You lose the twist and track though...

[@metajerk]

Yep, definitely viable.. I feel like a higher fire chance is definitely the way of damage, but for me, Twist & Track is just about a necessity for how I like to play the ships.

[@craigjohnstone9624]

Before his perks got updated when carriers landed..... increasing range and fire chances without penalty.early in the line utilising the traverse speed then concealment on the advanced of the line.running fully packed of course

[@somebloke3869]

I like stealth builds on DDs. I can't cap and scout as well when I'm spotted.

[@metajerk]

I'm notto trying to imply they are without use.. but I think that our concealment system on Legends is out of whack.. and because of that, you have way too many people going full concealment which results in them getting trapped because they only know the "concealment" style of play... lots of players out there think if they're spotted then that means they're instantly dead. (regardless of the ship class)

[@somebloke3869]

I'm only coming up to a year of playing Warships. I've been grinding all the tech trees and it's always the destroyer lines I get through faster. I put that to the concealment system allowing me to earn more XP. Depending solely on stealth only works in the lower tiers, as soon as radar turns up stealth can be foiled. What I really struggle with are the French DDs without smoke.

[@metajerk]

I mean, I put that concealment system of just about every ship (excluding Russians).. what bothers me is that, you have that, then you can put on Bey & Swirski as an inspiration and line up your perks you can get the detection on some destroyers down to 4.2km..

[@somebloke3869]

By concealment system I was meaning the way detection works in the game, not the actual concealment mod you can add to tier 6 and 7 ships. 4.2Km concealment means nothing when there are radar cruisers around that know how to use their ships.

[@fieryslay2902]

Just unlocked Tashkent tier 6 Italian dd and tier 6 Russian cruiser

[@metajerk]

Nice.. lots of options, I assume you mean the Italian cruiser.. which, is of course the one I would be going for.. but thats because I love the Amalfi

Unfortunately you didn't blur out the shall not be named destroyer's name from the kill feed. Very traumatizing

I have opted to leave those in so people can enjoy seeing them be sunk 👊

[@joshuawhitehead7964]

Why did you blur out destroyer you killed?

[@metajerk]

Heh, it is an ongoing bit... that is the destroyer that won't be named, or shown.. because it's completely broken and WG shouldn't have put in the game... so I do my part by trying to erase its existence.

[@Jxg2.]

The Y**achi if you’re still confused, or if you didn’t see the kill feed where meta didn’t censor the name of that horrible monstrosity.

So why did you blur that destroyer? If you should ever meet me in a game and absolutely wreck me, can I request you blur me too?? 😉

Because it is incredibly unbalanced and teaches most people who play it to play poorly.

[@metajerk]

@Mohamed Kiyaan Nazeem I think they should just be like “guess what y’all? You have a legendary tier ship now with reduced service costs..” and then hard cap the minimum detection at 5.1km for every ship.
