IOW.there are worse T8s but their T7s were also bad so it wasn't such a shock going to the T8 What is your opinion of this ship today?Īgree 100% on Fiji to Edinburg NERF.worst T7 - T8 shock in the game.not that Ed is the worst T8.just as a comparison to it's T7. The game has changed since the Neptune was released. Should I add the Neptune? Does it offer anything for a T-9 cruiser? IMO the T-8 Edinburgh was more of a T-7.5 rather than a T-8 ship & disappointing when compared to the T-7 Fiji. If you can surprise someone, your torps, and high rate of fire with AP at short range, can be brutal. Positioning, and being sneaky, are everything in the Neptune.
You are an AP magnet, because citadels are fun, and you give them to everyone who asks. Also, due to how incredibly squishy you are, expect everyone to shoot at you if they can see you. You can be, easily.ĭo not be surprised to be first to die in many battles, if a CV spots you and then several BBs open up in your general direction. DDs tend not to be deleted in one volley. Ironically, it takes far fewer volleys than a DD to be deleted, if you are detected and outside smoke. In many respects, the Neptune is like a very weak DD.
They have good range, good angles, reasonably low detection, and they punch fairly hard.
It has reasonable concealment, so games without CVs are interesting. On the plus side, it is a very sneaky ship.
Certainly you want to be careful about sitting in it too long. There is a lot of radar at your tier, and many ships have long range and very fast torps, so smoke is of questionable benefit. There is not much point angling, you will eat citadels if anything shoot AP at you. You cannot light fires, you have only AP ammo, and the ballistics on your guns are so bad that range upgrades are a waste of time. You can be deleted very easily with one volley from most ships at your tier.
