Yeah that was pretty funny story (now) but must have been terrifying at the time
Just waiting for her to be one tapped by everything with ease though in WT
Yeah I was testing her on the protection viewer and the Russian ap and scharnhorst ap can detonate her at practicly any angle. God I hope the naval protection viewer is broken

Is this event getting an extension for the time the game is unavailable during the update??
Ech…It’s a nice boat but this grind is too brutal. Only three stages in and already it feels like a floor job at the amazon fulfillment plant. The F-14 grind was brutal but queued at a brisk pace. However this is just a slog. Naval events should be absolute 35K max to account for the glacial queue times.
I find battleships are not the most efficient vessels to use. Personally light and heavy cruisers around 5.7 or 6.0 seem the sweet spot and I knock the star over pretty quickly. Alternatively if your a player of coastal my mate smashes the stars out even faster in those then I do in cruisers.

With a 1.9 modifier for everything it’s pretty hard to see how this is “glacial”??

i dont get it either, naval stars are by far the easiest. with the right vehicles its a 17k (ish) ‘‘grind’’
throw your choosing of 4.7 DDs in a lineup (add tier a tier III+ plane/speedboat if necessary) and make it rain

If you don’t turn on ‘join active battles’ i think the wait times can be pretty rough but it doesn’t take me that much. I wasn’t planning on grinding this event but changed my mind because I want the profile icon more than the ship, and I realised i had done all the challenges but one without even actively having to grind.

Barham so soft…
May e it will take a few days for people to get use to seeing her but so far she’s been a beast

the crew melts like ice cream in the summer heat
I’ll keep an eye on it but so far it’s been quite tanky. Have you got the crew protection upgrades yet?
not yet, i’ve only played three fights
Shrapnel protection might help as well as the firefighting etc.
Is there any news on when we will get the more effective HMS Barham with it’s 1930’s refit with the torpedo protection addition (loss of some torps). I am specifically referencing the Anti-Torp Bulge Armour plating?

We’ve been told that a new top tier ship is coming at some point for us. Good chance it will be a WW2 refit of the QE- Class as they can just modifiy Barham

So far they have never added the same ship in multiple refits. However Smin confirmed the UK and others are due to receive new rank IV ships in the coming two updates.
For the UK this would likely include another QE class or an R class. However they could also add something less likely such as KGV 1911, KGV 1938 or Nelson/Rodney, however the last two would be a big step up.

i would love that to be added as the 2 torps i have taken have killed all of the secondarys on each side of the ship which i feel is kinda bs
