    I went through the Montana line at the very beginning...Comming from the pre-buff Colorado, the NC was such breath of fresh air...It was amazing! Still one of my favorites.

      I feel you, Montana was my first Line too. I'm currently grinding through the Vermont line and it's absolutely miserable. The Kansas feels like such a downgrade compared to the absolutely amazing NC. I'm straight up not having a good time right now...

    • @sacatomatos41

      @ Kansas was bad. The Vermont, though slow, is worth it. (Those guns!!) And the Minnesota is a decent improvement over Kansas. Hang in there!

    I comment because you mentioned Colorado. Tier V New York was the battleship that made me fall in love with playing BB, enough to get through Colorado... and eventually get X Vermont as my first BB. I have never regretted getting that BB as my first.
    I did get NC with the free ship this christmas season, great advice PQ, as you usually give. Thanks for the content.

      Some fun people do still play this game. My usual comment is "may the torps be with you".

      Iowa is kinda bad honestly, just a longer North Carolina that is faster. But at t8 NC is one of the best BBs.

    • @vladimirye547
      @vladimirye547 5 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      What? Did you slot dispersion mod on slot 6? It's day and night difference. Telling 27 mm plating cruisers to sod off, flanking and catching broadsides, etc. While still have the speed to go in and out, and the concealment to do so? Yes, the hull eats pens from strange angles, but the consistency of the guns are much better.

    • @paddington1670
      @paddington1670 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      if youre good at aiming in long range high tier games, Iowa slaps. If youre used to 16km range t6 BB gameplay, NC is better

      What makes it hard are the uptiers and slow velocity of the guns, other than that she has a lot going for her.

    I ran the American BB line as my first BB line. I didn't have a great experience .. but years later I realize it was me not the ships. Going back through the line really helped me learn positioning and angling to enemy fire. Its a great starting line to learn BBs .. if you can do well in the American line you can apply that knowledge to every Nation and be a far better player. Cheers PQ

    I got the CLR version thinking it would be good to have one with the bonuses. Didn't realize I already put the bonus package on the tech line NC. At least I have one as a captain trainer!

    • @Anldiot69
      @Anldiot69 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Also got the CLR as it was cheap and as much as i hated the NC grind, i thought it couldn't be as bad as i remembered it.
      Turns out i really dislike this ship today. After years of playing, having grinded every line and got far better at the game, i still hate this ship.
      My main issue is the accuracy. For some reason i get the most frustrating/trolling salvos with that thing. It seems the dice rolls the worst thing on every roll. Super slow shells aren't that great too. I have the Roma/Littorio, which are known for their terrible dispersion, but i find it fairly consistent, which makes no sense, considering NC should be similar or better.
      Iowa and Missouri are a tier higher with similar play styles, but okay ships for me. Montana is a bit sluggish, but of my favorite T10 ships.

  • @tangofan4u
    @tangofan4u 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

    To expand on the dispersion benefit of range mod: My understanding is that it improves vertical dispersion, because the same vertical dispersion is now applied at a higher distance, so at the same distance as before the vertical dispersion is smaller.

  • @erikdellabianca700
    @erikdellabianca700 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

    I’m re grinding the Montana line and oh boy I missed the NC. It’s not my favourite ship, not even my favourite battleship but it’s the only ship that doesn’t frustrate me. Sure you can have trolling dispersion but 90% of the time if you aim correctly you get rewarded for it.
    I understand why we need dispersion and RNG but sometimes I wish we could have more ships like this.
    And this comes from a 50% WR player, not a super unicum that can aim with blindfolds on.

  • @tsuaririndoku
    @tsuaririndoku 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

    Tbh, I choose Schlieffen because I hate to grind as Ziten. BUT, NC is not a bad T8 pic, hence Mexi is horrible. If WG make Mexi a little bit durable like Citadel deck atleast 35mm, I would say the grind is quite solid. Yes, only thing I hate about USN grind is Mexi. Not NY or Colo. Mexi is the worst ship I’ve ever experienced so far. Second close is Ziten. No, I already tried IJN line and I don’t have any issue with it. Nagato is close to my fustration but not as extreme Mexi. British BB line also fine, so does BC. Soviet? I’m not even bother. Too plain for me. French BBs seems solid. Yes, of all BBs I experienced so far. Mexi is the worst of them all. Colorado sounds bad but I don’t struggle with it. Actually I found her being more enjoyable than Mexi.

    • @ljessecusterl
      @ljessecusterl 6 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I FXPed past the Zieten because it's just blah. Schlieffen with Gunther Lutjens with a full secondary/concealment build is HILARIOUS.

    Hard agree on the American BB line being really good for beginners - while I've personally had a bit of a hard time in Montana, NC and Iowa are both incredibly fun and powerful ships if you put them in the right place!

    NC is where the american line finally goes from ok or outright bad to being incredible. She's a very well balanced ship that hits like a truck. Easily one of my favorite tech tree ships.

    @ksl4044 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

    i received montana alongside tallin through combat missions available a couple or a few years ago and idk i had a hell of a time with NC, I'm sure my skill level at the time had a huge impact but i ended up using free xp to skip probably half? of the grind to iowa, which was 100% worth it, i think iowa is an awesome ship, i have more fun in iowa than i do in montana. I should probably give NC a revisit soon though

    Either way it's either picking something you don't have yet or picking something you don't want...or sometimes you can just free-exp through

    Just as an idea, but could you compare Hoffmann to Z-42? Since both are for steel, and have the hydro smoke combo with the better AP over the HE, and are somewhat hybrid with stronger guns. Maybe wrong video, but the Hoffmann review was a week ago so idk if you'll see the comment there :)
