Made it as a solo player thru insane mode last night. You need 2 BB's to alternate shields and shoot HE for fires. You need 2 DD's to stay concealed and spam torps only. The cruiser needs to burn everything down once several ships catch fire. Everyone needs to save all the blessings for the Behemoth's final push. And for Gods sake, block the damn prisoner from YOLO'ing.
Insane really is beyond insane. Teammates focus all their attention on the AI ships that never stop spawning in, then the boss is 100% health within 5m of the prisoner ship
Whenever a dev fixes something they fuq up something else 😢 the boss will dev strike the prisoner if he’s spotted and for some reason the prisoner spotted and deleted by a single secondary salvo. It’s just broken mode 😂
Battleship stays with prisoner to protect from torps etc use HE bow in to increase fires for cruisers switch to AP for close combat. 2 destroyers flood the gaps with torps. Cruisers burn everything big guys 1st but most importantly is to set X4 perma fire on boss and keep it burning. Cruisers also focus destroyers that spawn. Boss should be about 60-70% by the time he does his loop. Focus mobs until boss gets close. Everyone stacks on boss for kill and final waves. Easier in coms so I also try and encourage others in chat to turn their mics on. Save your blessings for rapid reload they stack! Cruisers explode mod + fire chance. Destroyers torp DMG and Battleship shield on cool down. Good luck 😅
Its best to have 2 cruisers bc the fire bomb ability the more of that fire spam the faster you kill the boss and never have your battleship in front bc its the most important bc the shield
Interesting video. My own general approach with ship builds and so forth is that, if in doubt, always go with the Rate Of Fire (ie. always shoot faster).
I ran from easy through hard in about 30 minutes with the cruiser. The DPM is absurd. Build-wise, I went full on glass cannon fire spammer. I chose that firebomb consumable, too. Shoot red, set fire, shoot next red, set fire, shoot next red, set fire... keep doing that until the firebomb is off cooldown, then trigger it. Rinse and repeat. The heal yourself buff is also nice. You don't get the DPM boost from the firebomb, but if you're taking fire, it's sure nice to be able to absorb punishment. Even so, I found myself going back to the firebomb and using the "you can't see me" buff to mitigate the incoming fire. If you've got a good BB, they'll be popping shield for you, too. With the DD, I went full torp damage build. Stay unspotted and just spam torps. If I've got another DD on the team, I'll typically go and chase down the boss. Stay outside spotting range and just torp spam it so that by the time it finally does finish its loop and heads towards the prisoner it's basically dead. If I'm the only DD, then I just torp spam gaps. The BB, funny enough, I found to be the most difficult to get a good rhythm going. The shells just don't seem to hit hard enough for how long the guns take to reload. It's not until you get a bunch of blessings stacked that the ship really comes alive. Trigger those and watch the reds melt. Keep an eye on your team and pop shields when you notice them coming under fire. Use that other buff to take out torps and disable the ships. Mostly you want to hang out by the prisoner ship and eat all the damage meant for it. The biggest pain is that once you do sink the boss, the prisoner just becomes suicidal. Not terrible if it's the BB, but if you get the DD, sigh. Can't tell you how many battles I lost because of that imbecile.
Found is easy to take down the first two waves and then block the prisoner with a battleship and focus on the main ship. That is if you have good teammates that can actually play and use their abilities. Or not ram the ship and insta die.
Hit insane last night and we were SO CLOSE! But i was last alive and got overwhelmed. Didnt save the blessings but now that i know this im for sure finishing this up tonight. Thank you for the guide
took a while but completed insane mode. need a cc or bb to sit in front of the prisoner while rest of team does damage without dying. then when behemoth makes its final push, use those blessings and kill it.
I have been doing it as a DD and it is just as painful. I had one game where my only battleship decided to ram some random battleship and killed him self in like the first wave
I use a strat where I put the battleship commander on the destroyer and use the 95 percent ram resistance and u can go invisible and drop a battleship in 2 seconds but behemoth has ram resistance so if you have a division you can have 2 ramming destroyers and then have everything else focus on the behemoth
This Halloween event is fun, but until the hard mode… the insane is too much for everyone. Idk… for an achievement is necessary to win 25 times insane… THAT’S INSANE if you think that win once is scary too.
Agree. I doubt anyone has more than 1 or 2 wins in insane if any so getting even 10 seems out of reach for now. Maybe with the nerf, it will be more reachable. I only have 1 insane win and it was tough getting it.
@@JohnSmith-ys1wr absolutely true. consider that I almost won 3 days ago with almost 800k damage with the destroyer, but for a few seconds before the last 120 seconds expired, the last wave after the boss they sunk our prisoner (a battleship). I didn't think there would be a nerf
Yeah they nerfed it, tried umteen times yesterday, and today got it at the second try (only 500K damage). DD focus on spamming heavy torps, and set things on fire, cruisers firebomb as much as possible, set everything on fire. BS focus on DPM and citadelshots. Fight bloodlust, stay with the prisoner. Invisible (dd), untouchable (cs) and shields (BS) are key imho. oh yeah stack the blessings !!!
Haha love how you said to use the Shield consumable back to back with another battle ship timing it half way makes sense right 😂😂😂 omg the amount of people I've seen hit the shield consumable about 10 seconds after I've used mine for no reason at all followed directly by the shockwave FML 🤦🏻 why or we get past the initial cruiser start spawn begin the actual main part and either three out of five ships flies themselves to the prisoner while a rouge destroyer or cruiser rush forward flat out get surrounded and bang dead it's like guys what's your main battery, secondary battery and torp range oh that's right you can't even attack being that far back not to mention when the behemoth clicks into murder mode shes already in way to close to even start to defend she just steam rolls flat out like you said move up just enough that the first line of enemies are just coming into range from while best case scenario having two destroyers position themselves on either side slight angle just funneling two constant walls of demon fish crushing the enemy
@@KorbinX i should of been more specific when i said “because my teammate rammed it” i ment that when that happened it stopped the ai from getting to the cover it was going after so it ended up destroyed.
I know you had good intentions but, you did everything wrong except by the stack the bonuses, so whats the point to make a tutorial if you dont know the right thing to do? You had to put a BB in front of the prisoner and block him from moving and block the dmg for him, thats it, simple like that, dds focus bbs and 2 cruizer are essential for killing the enemy dds also the radar is crucial to see where is the next wave , thats all you need , your video reach a lot of views spread bad info at most
Daniel you my friend are what the cool kids refer to as an idiot you are clearly watching tutorials to complete these harder waves when you just stated that you know the correct way to do this so why not making your own tutorial rather then watch other people's content and slamming them this might not be the perfect strategy but theres a good base to build off I'm assuming you don't see things like this being god tier completing the entire event in a single run 🤔🤫🤕
@@rhysjohnson5444 i finish on the first day without watch any yt, just by having the experience from others events, im not blaming the youtuber, but the ammount of views he had ill be better to at least finish the mode first, look theres 3k views, 3k pp still dont know how to win that freaking mode

Well done mate. Took me about 35 tries to get the first insane win
Insane really is beyond insane. Teammates focus all their attention on the AI ships that never stop spawning in, then the boss is 100% health within 5m of the prisoner ship
Apparently they are going to make it 'easier' by guaranteeing it being a BB and the prisoner doesn't go on a suicide mission at the end
Whenever a dev fixes something they fuq up something else 😢 the boss will dev strike the prisoner if he’s spotted and for some reason the prisoner spotted and deleted by a single secondary salvo. It’s just broken mode 😂
Won 4 times on release day and 2 more after they adjusted something. Suicidal team mates give it an interesting spin cycle 😂
My mistake was using blessing right away. That was a good tip m thanks . I beat hard mode solo with random after 3 trys

Great vid mate

As long as the dds put in work you’ll win
I think a good strategy is to put both bb on the prisoner to prevent him from going on suicide run
You sir are a scholar and a gentalman
took a while but completed insane mode. need a cc or bb to sit in front of the prisoner while rest of team does damage without dying. then when behemoth makes its final push, use those blessings and kill it.
I was the bb and did exactly that and finally won. Literally the only way to win while the dds mainly focus on the behemoth
You can assign any commander in the special event if you want to
Cruiser citadels are located underneath the rear two turrets. Figured it out last night. I averaged five citadels per
I have been doing it as a DD and it is just as painful. I had one game where my only battleship decided to ram some random battleship and killed him self in like the first wave
I use a strat where I put the battleship commander on the destroyer and use the 95 percent ram resistance and u can go invisible and drop a battleship in 2 seconds but behemoth has ram resistance so if you have a division you can have 2 ramming destroyers and then have everything else focus on the behemoth
Save the blessings. Double 50% reload on battleship guns spits a salvo a second.
You can save the blessings🤯
The DD torpedo damage is so freaking low

Of course when I gave up on it, a guide comes up. Typical me
The hardest part for me is insane only because I always get 2 destroyers, 1 of which ALWAYS suicides himself 1st wave.
The time frame for insane is survive for 240 seconds at least on the American server not 120 seconds
Team mates are the biggest problem lmao
Thanks for the info I got to hard mode and hit a wall of losing
The insane difficulty of the behemoth has 420milion health

I was 3 seconds away from winning then the prisoner ship died because my teammate rammed it 😑
Probably was shot by a bot. I've pushed the DD to the back of the map with the battleship. Prisoner ship takes no friendly fire
