ST, Competitive modes, balance, and other changes
Pan Asia | American | British |
After the release of the 0.8,6 update, you will be able to take part in two competitive battle types. |
The VI season of Clan battles will be held in “6 vs 6” format on tier VIII ships. All types of ships except aircraft carriers are allowed, and no more than 1 battleship per team. The reduced size of the teams is not planned as a permanent change but will make it easier to gather clanmates for the battle during summer. The change of the tier from X to VIII will diversify the familiar battle type. With the tier changed, rewards have also changed: you can get up to 8 750 of steel in the VI season.
New Ranked season will be held in “6 vs 6” format on tier IX ships.
The lightning model is updated. This is one of the steps in improving the graphics both in terms of quality and performance.
Hatsuharu, Gnevny, and Nicholas have their stock hulls updated: both visually and in armament, they are now closer to the researchable hulls. |
Now, players may encounter bot-operated aircraft carriers in Co-op battles even if no ships of this type are helmed by real players. A bot-operated aircraft carrier is also added if there is an aircraft carrier helmed by player.
The Raptor Rescue operation is brought back and the balance in it is improved: all skills, modernizations and premium consumables are removed from bots, and the composition of enemy groups is changed.
The automatic collision avoidance system is improved: it will work more reliably, and in most instances will turn the ship in an optimal way. Manual control will always have the priority.
5 new historical commanders are added: Friedrich Bonte, Horace Hood, Matsuji Ijūin, Vladimir Trubetskoy, Theodore Chandler. Though in a game they don’t have talents or improved attributes. They will be available in the Armory for doubloons.
New permanent camouflage ‘Wolf’ is added for Flint. It will be available for 3 Clan tokens and give the following bonuses:
|

New camouflage “Red heat” is added, giving the following bonuses: |
|
AA guns will now deal continuous damage several times per second. The damage values were recalculated accordingly to consider the increased frequency. This is a technical change with minimal impact in gameplay, which fixes some illogical situations.
Pan-Asian destroyer Chung Mu, tier IX: |
|
Pan-Asian destroyer Yueyang, tier X: |
|
After the changes to Yueyang in the update 0.7.11, this destroyer was balanced with classmates in terms of impacting the battle, but Chung Mu was superior to other tier IX destroyers in battle efficiency. The changes will balance these Pan-Asian ships with other destroyers considering the changes to the game after the 0.7.11 update. |
British cruiser Emerald, tier V: |
|
This change will protect the citadel deck from penetrations by attack aircraft rockets, 203 mm caliber HE shells and penetrations without ricochets with AP shells. |
IMPORTANT! Because this Ship is still being tested, the information in this Article is tentative and reflects the state of game development at the time of its publication. Changes and new features may be removed entirely or implemented differently by the time the update goes live. Screenshots, specific values of certain characteristics, and details of in-game mechanics will not necessarily be relevant after this is released. |
