Currently spading Rodney (grew a bit sick of Talisman Hood grinding). She currently is in a quiet good place, only issue is that she does also suffer from the fire damage which manages to often detonate your shell room which leaves you with 1/3rd reduced firepower.
She also is a bit prone to large water ingress when hit below the water line but nothing to major
And of course the unsinkability BS is back

You missed out on the golden period of pure downtiers and farming kills against Gneis…I guess you are now mostly seeing uptiers?
Funnly enough, no I also see a lot of down tiers and even less Scharnhorsts and Gneisenaus XD
Hmm… Interesting you are getting so shredded with ubsinkability
how is even hood suffering from it
what have they fucked up?
Was there a patch overnight?

Yes I know, but they first decreased the HP of hull sections to unplayable after the update, then increased it again, but apparently it’s still causing issues
sadly vanguard is also a bit affected by unsinkability (not as much as Rodney), just the same level as every other bb
well second time in 2 battles
I think this is generally an issue with all ships at the moment.
It was terrible when the patch dropped, then got better, but battleships are much less durable than they should be atm.
At one point cruiser hulls had higher durability than battleship hulls ingame. Last time I played the Vanguard maybe a week or two ago the sinking did happen sometimes, but it wasnt too bad, i guess they’ve changed it again.

I just played the Rodney.
It was painful. Constantly having my turrets taken out by shells that really shouldn’t have, constant sinking and I got ammoracked several times. It felt as if I had literally no armour, every shot did damage to me.
I have no idea what they’ve done to it…
with rodney you are really dependent on angeling, if you show too much front you get ammo racked immediatly.
It also suffers from the increased fire elevator mechanic with the shell room often blowing up when the magazine elevators are hit and set on fire
Honestly, getting fire crews was literally game changing in Rodney. Ammo wetting too almost makes it an entirely different ship. Just stick with it. I will say I normally play RB EC so perhaps give that a go on the Friday or Sunday.
