      It is what naturally happens when you "review" a ship after 5-10 games. As a rule I don't take a CC's reviews seriously if they have less than 50 games in a ship.

    I am not a DD main in the slightest so forgive my ignorance but if you have 12 13.5 km torps that do over 16k damage at a minimum and go 72 km/h and that reload in 2 minutes, all before you even build for it, how is this boat necessarily a close range fighter? It outperforms Shima in torp dpm AND range! Yeah it's got decent guns, it is after all a hybrid, but the focus is more on the torps than the guns I think. And it's not about stealth either, 6km detection is fine considering the range of the torps and the ballistics of the guns. What am I missing here?

    • @Nick-wh4jt
      @Nick-wh4jt 23 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Definitely a hybrid, the thing is you're not supposed to get the most alpha damage out of the torpedos at all times, and building into 6km stealth is detrimental to the firepower. It takes a high skill ceiling to get the most out of a hybrid since they aren't particularly special at any one thing, and around average at most other.
      If you want to play a dedicated torpedoboat then play a torpedoboat. If you want to play a dedicated gunboat then same thing, play a gunboat.

    PQ, you do the best job editing these ship reviews of any CC I've seen and it's not even close. Your clips efficiently highlight a ship's strengths and weaknesses within the context of each battle, which makes it both informative and entertaining. Well done!
    RE: the new French line - I kinda think you're doing it a disservice by trying to decide if it's a gun or torp build. Isn't it just a hybrid? Great torp dpm and I just watched you cheeky clap a Tashkent in the Orage video for 3.7k. Looks like it's got a solid spotting advantage on any DD that can smash it. Gearing/Daring/Halland/Hayate/Zs seem to be a problem because it will struggle to disengage so... you've got to pick your engagements carefully just like every other hybrid DD. The wide range of viable strategic options on hybrids make them tough to evaluate, but I have a feeling this thing would be OP with better speed. Here's to hoping WG decides a couple knots won't hurt!

    just think of it as a French hybrid/dual purpose DD. A Jack of all trades. It has usable guns and usable torps that are both applicable in most situations. This isn't from gameplay but, I think you trying to shoehorn it into a particular role is giving you grief and overshadowing an honest review of the ship/line.

    • @nich7622

      Usable guns isn’t about this DD. Look how inaccurate they are. Torps? Dunno. Very short. For assumed tactics of skirmishing from behind the islands not that fast and has no crawling smokes. I have Le Hardi but can’t get how to play it.

    I think the torp damage being highest at "close" range is because of these ships "weakness". Because it is at risk of being caught in close range, unlike jaegers that much better chance of staying hidden, Jaeger torps are weak and may not kill target at close range yet has better chance of going silent, cassard torps are super strong to give a higher chance of going silent because damage potential of torps are enough the just 2 torps would kill most Cruisers, just 1 would kill all DD's.

    Potato Quality's opinion of a new ship entirely depends on how well he happens to do with it that day, which in this meta is reliant on luck of the draw. That is to say, his opinion given the binary nature of ship reviews is a coin flip. I've noticed that you gotta wait a couple of years for PQ to revisit a ship half a dozen times before you finally get some of that nuanced 'in that situaion it shines, in that type of game it doesn't, if your playstyle is X then it might not be for you' ..etc coverage, if at all.

Your guns is good, but it was a self-defense mechanism, they good because you don't have smoke to cover then sneak away when you get spotted, so it's good to make up for that!!! You bring a Torp boat out and seek for gun fight, THAT'S WHY YOU FEEL IT BAD!!

If you are struggling it´s probably more on you as a torp boat DD then the DD itself. You don´t have to get too close either to torp with it... Idk why you are so confused with this DD.

      Nah, that's like saying the Daring or Lightning or the British hybrid dd line are just a waste of time when they just plain aren't. It takes a high skill ceiling to get the best out of a hybrid that is average at about everything and not specialized at any one thing. The Lightning is already broken with 5.5km stealth and a full hybrid build into torpboat/gunboat/utilitydd/dd hunter/rpf it's like a swiss army knife, it does everything and does well in tier10 mm and as it gets into tier6 mm it makes it one of the most broken warships in the game. This French hybrid dd line isn't quite the smoke/farm/get out of trouble line that the British hybrid dd line is, it's more like the other French dd line of run and gun and speed is your life. I think the high alpha torps are situational, and building into full stealth is detrimental to the firepower.

      I honestly think playing style makes the difference. Maybe you’re the guy who likes fast barrel speed fast ship with usable toros. Or maybe u like the floaty shells so u can shoot over islands. Maybe u don’t like to contest caps and don’t need conceal as much. Aka. Go towards cap get spotted and kite. For example. My fav bb is the Maine. But there is very little overmatch and the reload is a bit slower. Not great secondaries either.

Rangier hybrid dd line as opposed to the British hybrid dd line which has more utility to play closer with smoke and personal hydro and then there's the shorter range torps.
