Hi,

Last time i play was in 2012 when Enterprise server is first created. So I assume lot of thing
has changed.

I am currently at iowa and ejoy line fighting (well, try to ) as my rush skill i not so good (normally die very quicky). I am looking at EBB Washington , Missouri and California and i got all confuse ...

1/ How does EBB compare to BB ? Are they support to have better range / gun damage ?

2/ Both Washington and Missouri will outrange iowa but not Monty ? Are they good for line fighting ?

3/ Which one will go better in GB (i.e survide better ) ?

4/ Missouri only has 7 support slots , which less than Washington, but Missouri  is level 99 ship ?

5/ Is it worthwhile to get Washington or Missouri or is it better to save for California ?

I have done search in forum but informatino is about 6+ month old and I beleived it may not be correct anymore.

Best Regards

Yes, I know it's the same treatment across the board for all L99 EBBs, but I can't help but to feel that this particular justification just doesn't stand when it comes to the Missouri and the Jean Bart.

Not that I'm really complaining anyway, as the BB4-level support slots suit my lack of desire to grind extra sailors.


The Missouri and Jean Bart were victims of laziness. The devs knew US and MN were getting shafted in that respect and . . . buffed IJN instead :P

In fact, they were doubly lazy with the Missouri since it was originally the lvl 96 EBB, and they could have kept it that way and used the Wisconsin or New Jersey for the lvl 99, but instead pissed off almost every player that already had one by changing things up.

 

Nonetheless, the fear that they could supplant BB5s is, according to the test team, why all of them, Missouri and Jean Bart included, were given fewer supports.
