You all asked for it, hope this is helpful! EDIT: I didn't include another Jack off all trade build in this video, but check out that build here th-cam.com/video/-nger6-mdi8/w-d-xo.html
Thanks a ton! I've really been working through the A6M5 and it shreds but i cant stand how the HMG's overheat just before you get an aerial kill. ...... Might be tempted to use the cooling fins when I get there and see how that goes.
Azura Productions hey man this is helpful i been wanting to start trying to use tanks and planes for but been working starting my gold grind for all the guns so this is good to know when u need a break from everything
This channel is underrated. I hope it grows quickly. The videos are packed with information and are short n sweet! Well done buddy you deserve have your channel grown tremendously. Keep up the good work! I appreciate all the information
I love how DICE consistently manages to get the plane variants the wrong way round. The Corsair 1C was the ground support version but in the game is the better dog fighter just like the Blenheim IF (heavy fighter) is a better bomber than the Blenheim I (bomber) variant
Glad I’m not the only one, though after needing your videos to help explain that AP rounds are sometime worse than HE against tanks I should know not to apply logic to this game anymore haha
As someone who is only able to play about 6hrs a week (and mostly infantry), your vehicle spec tree vids are immensely helpful. Picking a spec side feels like a huge commitment when you don't play much, and your vids can help prevent regrettable choices - so long as I watch them first (I'm looking at you, chi-ha secondary cannon). Thanks for making these, keep it up!!
I actually like the two big rockets, the white zero is a total beast! Maxed already, the speed boost helps out turn anybodys plane and the gunz are awesome.
Incendiary bombs and 20mm HE are the best specialisations for the A6M2 and the F4U-1A, for the other planes use the 6x lmg with manual supercharger and improved manoeuvrability. The rockets and gliding bombs are underwhelming and if you want to go to hell, there’s mines to drop on the enemy airstrip. If you use the Bikini Atoll skin you’re one hell of a pilot and want every AA, fliegerfaust, and enemy plane to see you. Great vid Azura as always 👍
Darn, I kind of went a different direction when spec-ing out my planes. I wasn't sure which one was the fighter and bomber variants, so I made the 1A and M2 into an Anti-Infantry plane while making the 1C and M5 anti-vehicle. tank and plane. But now knowing, i'll have to wait to reset my specs to go with something similar you have.
For bomber variant go 4x lmgs. Engine upgrade then middle upgrade, incendiary bombs and flares and lest but not least the better manouverability. This is by far the best loadout. See my other comment to find out why
Nice flying considering you don't usually fly! Regarding the specializations: for the tanks I agree 100% with you. On planes I went completely different rout for all of them :-)
For the bomber variant the engine upgrade is by far the best upgrade in the entire pacific. With this your plane is far far superior to planes that aren't using engine upgrade. Incendiary bombs and flares are more then enough to kill infantry and get massive scores. Your main concern will always be enemy fighters. With the 4x HE your plane is just inferior to fighter variant and people using engine upgrade. So an enemy pilot can completely shut you down. Engine upgrade is by far the best. Most experienced fighters are using it!
Since the update 6.2, we can see spots from the planes even we are far away and high altitudes, just shooting rocket canon on A6M zero 52 to the tiny spots from the outside of the range of the AA gun and fliegerfaust, we can get high kills. This morning I got 83k/0d on Wake Island with A6M zero 52!!!
Nowadays (4 years later) it is the A6M5 and 1C Corsair that are the better ground pounders because you can just snipe with the rockets from high altitude while still destroying any enemy planes
In the Japanese team I use the heavy bomby and the mines then throw the bomb and mines on a tank so he gets hit, wants to drive away and BOOM! The attackers always get many tanks so I prefer stopping them first, that makes life much easier for my teammates on the ground
So true. Though I do find a few runs with early pullups help identify the Fliegerboys, and also watching friendly planes diving while circling also helps to identify
The a6m5s 20 seems to have a pretty funny property when being used against infantry: it has a blast radius. This means that, with a great deal of skill, you can perform some pretty hilarious upside down ground attack runs.
Azura Productions i tried high alt nose dives. That gives you enough time to pull up after the attack. I mean it’s no a6m2 but it can work. Probably better off woth the bombs though
I am surprised you didn't speak about using the LMG upgrade on the bomber variant. That way it turns into a jack-of-all trades, that can deal with planes but be very effective against infantry (with incendiary bombs) or effective against both tanks and infantry (with normal bombs). Imo this is the best version since it gives you the most leverage when flying - you don't need to choose between planes to fight aircraft or infantry when loading up, you just have an all-purpose fighter that can deal with air and ground targets equally.
Yes, the angled gun for the airplane may seem bad. But I have it for my airplane n I do say it’s a very good attachment I win 85% of my dogfights. Even when they have engine boost or high altitude in their attachments. For my advice, I say it’s a must, then again everyone is different in dogfighting jus depends how good you are
1. Watching this video 2. Thinks I'm going to be a great pilot next round I play 3. Getting owned INSTANTLY when I try 4. Going back to playing Assault standing by a ammo crater with Fliegerfaust. 5. Getting glide bombed.
hey thanks for the video, would have been helpful if you had a picture of the specialisation tree on screen when you mentioned them, I don't have the game up in front of me nor do i play it enough to memorise all the names but just as some feedback
I mistakenly chose the right path opn my level 2 blue Corsair :( what do I do now? PS Azura, great content, please make a similar specs guide for German and British planes!
The 6x 50 cal animation seems bugged. You cam only see 4 mgs firing on both planes. So i wonder if its just an animation glitch or are there only 4 actually firing? Anyone see a diffetence between using the base 4 and the 6mg upgrade?
Japanese Zeroes is realisticly More manueverable than the Corsair in Low speeds,But the Corsair has the advantage in speed and climb rate,it can outrun and outclimb the Zero in any situation.The Zero sacrifices its armor for agility unfortunately
everything good and all... but those things are just bad to fly... unresponisive controls thanks to dice... and other things... same goes to Dogfighting... if someone is behind you lost....

Ah finally a good plane guide regarding the new planes

It was a bit confusing for me in the beginning too

Liked and subbed also. Been looking for a good breakdown on the new planes loadouts.
For someone who doesn't fly much you're doin pretty damn good. Nice video. Hopefully the Euro vehicles will get improved spec trees too.
It would be nice to rework the entire specialization tree for the base game.
That wil be nice 👍
you are a lifesaver just came back to this game and its really different to past iterations.
You are the most thorough bf TH-camr. You’re like my teacher. Love your videos!!
Very good video, as always Azura!
I'm almost done leveling up the 4 planes and pretty much agree with your choices in the specializations.
Incendiary bombs and 20mm HE are the best specialisations for the A6M2 and the F4U-1A, for the other planes use the 6x lmg with manual supercharger and improved manoeuvrability. The rockets and gliding bombs are underwhelming and if you want to go to hell, there’s mines to drop on the enemy airstrip.

Great vid Azura as always 👍
Engine upgrade > 4x HE
@@ricardomokveld839 agreed engine upgrade is way better
Must be trash at ground strafing. Fuckin scrubs
Watching your videos reminds me of watching Levelcap's BF3 guides back in the day. You're very informative keep up the good work! 👍
I just found your channel earlier this week, you have some great tanking guides Azura!
Great video man! After seeing this I'd also like to see a similar guide for both Spitfire and bf109 fighter variants. Just a thouhght
Darn, I kind of went a different direction when spec-ing out my planes.

That is probably the most balanced loadout and not super specialized.
WAIT WHAT. You only have 6k subscribers. I thought it was 600k. Most underrated youtuber 2019

Wenever I look at the plane specialtions I always get overwhelmed
Extremly helpfull guide, thanks to you m8 for your time and BIG THUMBS UP for this.
In the Japanese team I use the heavy bomby and the mines then throw the bomb and mines on a tank so he gets hit, wants to drive away and BOOM! The attackers always get many tanks so I prefer stopping them first, that makes life much easier for my teammates on the ground
Flying these days: how lucky do I feel?
Maybe a little to much right now xd
Can't even fly anymore constantly taking fire from infantry with there fligerfaust
So true. Though I do find a few runs with early pullups help identify the Fliegerboys, and also watching friendly planes diving while circling also helps to identify
@书中自有黄金屋 One shot kill on a junker, I was pretty high up too. Laughed and quit lol.
Well do you punk

Yep, I tried it and it didn't go very well lol
Azura Productions i tried high alt nose dives. That gives you enough time to pull up after the attack. I mean it’s no a6m2 but it can work. Probably better off woth the bombs though

great vid very helpfull
The 20 mm he and the incendiary bombs are a little op i think , i had a game 101 - 3 with only the 20 mm thats crazy xd
For levelling up use 20mm HE for both variants pacific pilots will not fight they crash in to air craft carriers
Good vid 👍
Good vid, but too bad I suck at flying planes
This is very helpful, thank you.
You are welcome but things have changed slightly since that time.
@@AzuraProductions Yes, but this gave me ideas.
1. Watching this video
2. Thinks I'm going to be a great pilot next round I play
3. Getting owned INSTANTLY when I try
4. Going back to playing Assault standing by a ammo crater with Fliegerfaust.
5. Getting glide bombed.
The glide bomb is so hard to get used to. I gave up using it as a glide bomb and just just use it as a dive bomb lol
Unless you have my luck and once you take off theirs always someone after me. Or flack just wants to mess my day up.
This video sums up why the Fliegerfaust exists
I liked the flying in BF1
i forgot how good this game is...
i'll play it today
hey thanks for the video, would have been helpful if you had a picture of the specialisation tree on screen when you mentioned them, I don't have the game up in front of me nor do i play it enough to memorise all the names but just as some feedback
Azura VS Niccaman
Very helpful!!
There is a loadout that can SHRED planes and do ALOT of damage on the ground.
You can also go the 4x lmg with engine upgrade and then bombs.
@@AzuraProductions yes this is by far the best loadout
I think the 4x lmg is better than the 6x hmg but that’s just me
书中自有黄金屋 that was probably me before I discovered them. I thought an enemy was hacking because they are so good
I mistakenly chose the right path opn my level 2 blue Corsair :( what do I do now?
PS
Azura, great content, please make a similar specs guide for German and British planes!
Actually have a video just on that coming soon
maybe they can also add air target ammo spec , so we can make a real air to air fighter
Dice should make an all Air battle only like storm raiders or War thunder
8:09 ...yeah bombers in the pacific...this is not going to happen in BF5 :-D
Nice and helpful vid, you should upgraded though since some of the planes upgrades have been nerfed :(
The a6m2 with 4LMG is a far superior dog fighter than the m5 TTK is less than a second if you land every shot on the cockpit area
Certainly feels like it
I think my problem is that can't lock on enemies and when I got locked on I couldn't get out of it...
But anyway this video is helpful!
Ahh that one annoying flieger when you doing runs
Glide bomb and rockets are pretty much a joke tbh.Hope they buff the glide bomb or add a decent crosshair for it.
Wow
Poggers for God..,
And everyone takes all the planes before I even have the chance to get into one.
Laughs in fliegerfaust
Brilliant
“WHEN THERE ARE BOMBERS IN THE PACIFIC” 😞😞😞😞
I find the LMGs FAR more effective than the HMGs by a large margin when it comes to air to air.
For air to air the lmgs are good but voor ground attack the 20 he are soooo good but dont dont do a lot pf dmg to other planes
@@nielywheely I disagree, while the 4x HE's are easy mode, the upgraded lmgs, especially on the zero are amazing at taking out infantry.
You just don’t no the 4xlmg its better at everything in dogfighting.
Please use the green variant of the Japanse with the 4Xlmg
fliegerfaust like this video
Getting smoke screen gets rid of your quick repair so don't get it
It's so hard to get this dogfighting corsair ranked up to 6
4:26 how do you mark the enemy like that?😳I use flares and it marks them on the map but not like that.😔
Man do I wish I could shoot planes down that fast....😔
I would've liked to see the unlock tree
In the end, sorry.
Spotting flares shall be for plane s vision only and not for all infant on the ground.
You are sometimes spotted all the game that is awfull
The 6x 50 cal animation seems bugged. You cam only see 4 mgs firing on both planes. So i wonder if its just an animation glitch or are there only 4 actually firing? Anyone see a diffetence between using the base 4 and the 6mg upgrade?
can you make a video for the AA zero variant that has a cannon for shooting planes above you? i forgot what thats named sorry, lol
3:20 which one button to spot people like here?
Hello, may I ask if you're using the mouse to fly your plane or the num pad? Or something else entirely
Mouse and keyboard
How can he spot enemy infantry on the ground? When i fly i never see anything marked on the groung and i not getting any kills :(
They Def nerfed splash damage
these all seemed nerfed, i’m guessing they are
Rockets and supercharger op sniping aa for ez farm
I die in 3 seconds because of AA and a lot a enemy planes.
Whats up with the big bomb (left) on the bomber variants ?
Angled 20mm HE ?
how did u level up the planes so fast, i suck
I just kept playing, the first level was especially hard 😅, it does get better though
wow thanks for replying, im on console and am not the best with planes but I love tanks and your videos have definitely helped
Why are the 1k lb bombs absolutely useless?
I dont know if its just me, but the Japanese planes feel stronger and more maneuverable than the U.S. planes.
I think the zero is also better than the corsair
Japanese Zeroes is realisticly More manueverable than the Corsair in Low speeds,But the Corsair has the advantage in speed and climb rate,it can outrun and outclimb the Zero in any situation.The Zero sacrifices its armor for agility unfortunately
how spot while attack??
Well shit, I did the opposite for the bomber variants...
2x medium bombs or 1x large bomb?
I prefer 2x, more consistent, 1000 also seem to not be able to one hit kill a tank
2x incendiary
1x is for when you want to kamikaze. Drop it just before you hit the ground
I believe the saying is “for the Emperor!”
This is why people don’t wanna play anymore fkn tired of ppl who just camp in a plane the entire game
everything good and all... but those things are just bad to fly... unresponisive controls thanks to dice... and other things... same goes to Dogfighting... if someone is behind you lost....
