  • Armored QV revisited

There is a thread in the old forum data on whether to armor QV or not. Most QVs (over 90%) nowadays are armored. And I have tried both setups, while armor is effective against some ships (KM), I feel with the new patch and the buff to SN and IJN bb6 armored penetration, and increase in gun angle, speed is more important. Against SN bb6, armored QV is difficult to play, having same speed, significant worse range, and useless armor. It's even worse against Amagi, being 4 knots slower. So do people still think armored QV is better setup, either for GB or HA? Is SW QV viable option in competitive environment? Please discuss

I put 18" of deck on a Lion 2 (guns removed save for a dual 14"). While it bounces BB4 HE and AP shells at max range, it does nothing to 18" HE shells. Too UK armor is not conferring an advantage any longer.

Good, now remove all the armor. Put three guns (lvl 100 guns) on your Lion 2, 0.2 belt and fill her up with bulge, but keep the speed at 39 knt. 

Done?

Congratulations with making a ruined ship into one of the best in this game. Have fun playing it. It's not your fault, I see this mistake a lot, but now I helped you. So spread the word.



At AW QV
It is just as good as it was. The problem is that people don't dodge.

With yesterday's range buff to QV and the new 40 degree max angle, I no longer try to rush with this ship. In GB, I play my QV like a Kaiser - just sit at max range a hold the line.
