That will work and also bring the reserve BR to 1.0. Separate battleships and battlecruisers from coastal defensive ships.
Do you REALLY want to see Soyuz at the 6.7 bracket?
Because something tells me brackets will end up getting compressed.
And the destroyer will get decompressed to 1.0 instead of 3.3. We aren’t going to stop adding ship just because of 1 vehicle.
Ah yes, 1.0 pt boats having to deal with a destroyer.
That’ll make the puddle pirates so happy.
Edit
And I say this as a straight hater of coastal players since they generally like to ruin bluewater matches.
Them getting blown out of the water is cathartic but it’s only going to drop numbers further if coastal has to deal with bluewater at all tiers instead of 2.3+.
Gaijin might as well as just add new BRs maybe BR 15.0 for the most modern vessels.
Making EC the default naval mode would be cool. Also, giving naval players more things to do, LIKE SUBMARINE HUNTING and potentially carrier ops would be cool. Also, in the current EC meta, there’s a tendency for a team not to destroy the enemy convoy because more often than not, as the ships traverse, it brings their spawns closer to the enemy capture points which I feel is not using the convoy spawns for their intended purpose.
Edit: speaking of naval EC, Improved Naval EC as a permanently available mode for naval battles here is the suggestion about adding it as a permanent fixture.

I very much dislike the current EC. It has a lot of potential but the current version should not and could not replace the normal modes.

NAVAL is too easy mode, that is why there is no game. The worst player in the world can 1 shot you from across the map. There is no map strategy, no aim strategy, no defence strategy. It’s like putting t80bm vs leopard 1 on a flat map with zero cover. There is also extremely high levels of RNG on dmg penetration.
it’s the exact same with top tier jets. There is no game and no skill ceiling.
Therefore adding EC and bigger maps is completely pointless . Just means more travel time, more sailing, more frustration after 1 shots.

This is the only reason why I play wt mobile
Actual modern warships instead of 1910s stuff
So 6.0 to 7.3.
3.3-8.7 ships with guns as main weapons. 9.0-12.0 Ships with mix loadouts 12.3-15.0. Ships that completely relies on Missiles
Naval is boring, some games last 30 mins and all you get is 500 hits on a battleship, other games you get 3 or 4 kills.
It’s annoying to grind, it’s unfun and the ships are too expensive compared to the gains per match.
I would like Modern Naval. Like the Game Sea Power, with Tomahawk and other Anti-ship Missiles, ECM, Flares, Chaff, VLS Cells etc.
This would never work with the WT gameplay in mind, it would be literally hell if not worse.
Beside, no one would bother spending 200 hours plus to grind a ship, it’s too niche for everyone…
BTW take a look at these KDs from stat shark
USS south dakota 7.28 Kills per death
Bismarck 4.36
Roma 2.46
Richelieu 3.39
and there adding another one USS south dakota most stacked tree in game is america hands down for naval
Amiens? At 4.3? Not until the SKR-7 is bare minimum 5.7 lol
Cold War and WW2 frigates shouldn’t see each other anywhere near as often as they do IMO

SKR-7s are worthless past 4km.
As a dedicated naval player, I have to unfortunately agree. For instance, every game that I play a 7.7 Maryland, I am always up-tiered against a Sovetsky Soyuz. It is so ridiculously unfair as to be unplayable. Spare me the chiming in about “oh it’s so easy just shoot here” BS. It’s like every time you play your M4A1 Sherman you are up against a T-34-85 because of the ridiculous over compression, and the excuse of the T-34 players is “Oh just shoot it from behind”. You can NEVER play cruisers, and coastal is a joke, unless every boat you use is a Pr 206. First they completely broke bombers and made them unplayable. Then they went full throttle bias on ground. Now they are hell-bent on breaking naval. I can not understand how Snail can be so arrogant that they insist on breaking their game. The end result is so many players say screw this, stop playing WT and start playing Arma. Gaijin —> your Russian fan base playing on 10 year old computers are not your only customers. I really want to see it fixed, and not have them drive the business into the ground. What is it going to take to get you guys to wake up?

It’s a good thing there are a lot of slow, unwieldy coastal vessels from other countries that get to fight it and have way worse performance at both long and short ranges!!
Most of which don’t get ASW launchers/have theirs modeled like the SKR-7 just happens to.
