@@TheGuardianofAzarath no, standard detection is your base detection so if you shoot your guns and are only spotted then deadeye is active, not when your just spotted.
@@TheGuardianofAzarath Deadeye was active when no opponent was within your standard detection range, if you were spotted because you fired it didn't matter. As long as no one was within the distance that would get you spotted by a surface vessel if you haven't shot deadeye worked, no matter if you were detected due to you firing your guns or a plane spotting you.
Us Italian mains have put up with shotgun dispersion since forever, with the Columbo only being semi decent due to volume of fire, and yet it was still one of the worst top tier bb's. And now the shoe is on the other foot with the UU mod and people are crying. No sympathy. Its our time fellow Italy Chads, make use of it while you can.
09:22 You're talking about the SAP salvo you landed on the St. Vincent...it was just over 25K damage just on straight pens. Crazy. I love SAP, especially the SAP secondaries on my Napoli. Wish my Littorio had it in some form.
Colombo with unique mod is just pure joy for the person playing it. Assymetric battles and sail down the flank, catch even a BB broadside and can pretty much delete the ship. Cruisers you will delete. Been quite a few CC videos showing just how much damage can do now, In randoms then early in one game was a Hannover that fired and had the spotter plane up to reach and was angled towards me not broadside and still took 20k off him with SAP. Played a few and first time that had to stop playing a ship as felt dirty playing it. Firepower now is superb with the 16gb a and SAP then plenty of damage. Cruisers especially feel the brunt.
For all of its power, I do not think CC is actual a top tier choice in Asyms and you rarely see it played. Big chunky salvos are great and have superb battle impact but the sustained that Schliefen and Libtard brings makes the by far the top choices for damage. And you can see that in the frequency they are played.
FYI, the stupid T5 battleship missions, I used the Derfflinger, gave me creates and one had a 10 skill Japan devil commander, and the other was a 6 skill German special commander.
Will have to look at the legendary module for the Colombo. I just got the Silica yesterday and have to say it has been a blast to play, though the guns / ammo works a bit differently and you want to try to get into the 7k-11k range to really be effective.
Good joke is that the Italian top tier BB, the Mr. Cristoforo Colombo is the best ship to dominate those OP South American BBs, as what has happened in real life in the South America continent.
It should be noted that there is currently a bug that stacks all dispersion buffs an additional time once you enter battle, so Colombo is especially broken right now. To verify the bug, just look up your dispersion value in port and after entering battle (if you put the respective module on).
You did not mention one thing. When Colombo appears on the minimap it is the primary target for all "reds". Potential damage over 3M is very easy to get. Once my friend was very surprised why nobody shoots him. So I explained him that everybody shoots me and my Colombo. Our BBs were almost side by side. My last Colombo game: 180k damage, 3.5M potential damage and it was completely lost. I find this ship useless in asymmetric battles due to the long reload time and crappy secondaries. You just need time to inflict damage. The longer a game is the better result you get. And why nobody complains about Vermont?
Deadeye + Lyon = 😂🤣😭 I did start the Italian Battleship line but, the long loading time plus cruel dispersion and hamster powered turret turn speed nah I'd sooner.have toothache 🇬🇧
The tier 8 Veneto sucks ass and the Lepanto is at best a bit worse than average, having grinded the line on my sons account. In the process of getting the unique upgrade for the Columbo though to see just how good it is (especially with the dispersion bug)
Colombo SAP deals more DMG than the AP I literally see no point in switching unless a BB is 10k away waving hi with its citadel and even at that the SAP most likely does more DMG.
@@sparty278 Also knowing your stats helps. As I said the SAP deals more damage, literally by 500 each per shell. I have played the game for 8 or 9 years.
@-sly-Critique While I agree, I've never hit above 33-35k with SAP, and I have definitely hit way higher dmg with AP (not counting citadel dmg obviously). SAP overall should be the first choice of ammo (especially since you full pen subs with it and light cruisers) they are more consistent. I'm just trying to remember people that they also have AP and they should use it. Edit. I believe AP has a better Pen angle than SAP and I can show you some ridiculous pen damage I've done with it. Yesterday alone, I smashed a Colombo that was angled for 40k in a single salvo. For thicker enemies like GERMAN and Russian BBs is generally better tu use ap if they give you the side 🙏🏻
You think... That the teacher would say, Too Long Didn't Read instead of using the lazy text. I get it's shorter to use TLDR when typing, -ya know keystrokes- but saying it saves you a whole second? Maybe two if you talk slow like some of us in the South.
I woudnt say it’s broken it’s just what the other BBs should be when it comes to consistency and even with leg mod the dispersion is still random as fuck. Occasionally you’ll get 30k salvos but most of them are 20k and if their not broadside your lucky to do 10. Had a lot of games since the update where I get 8 hits or less at 10k and 7 full pens which do 8k damage somehow. And you might as well not even shoot at DDs because of the nonsense 10% damage. Hitting a dd with 10 shells and doing 5k damage is irritating especially when you don’t have hydro because balance I guess. It’s the only bb I enjoy playing and if they nerf it back to where it was I’ll probably just quit the game being a cruiser main and watching cruisers become more and more unbalanced thanks to the constant hybrid ships and cvs and untouchable subs had made the game stale as hell. Your AA is useless and you always get hit with torps and do no damage to DDs. It’s fun to smack cruisers and BBs but if overpen wasn’t a thing all BBs would do the same kind of damage. 🤷♂️
I am grinding italian line in my Asian account and it is just as terrible as it was in my European account. Those low and mid tiers are terrible. Cant hit anything.
Colombo is just a massive tank with insane damage now. SAP is broken with this ship. More damage on average per salvo than a yamato. People use it for brawling as well cause they can hit destroyers a lot easier with 16 guns. in my opinion the ship is broken. Everytime as a t10 player and I see colombo I know im gonna get hit and I know its gonna hit hard and I got no way to deal with that besides trying to move away and that's kinda ridicules cause its hard to citadel this thing as well. They should make colombo weaker and easier to citadel or just remove sap.
Today i had a very frustrated teammate lol, named NRD, we were in a t8 battle, i play with Tennesse and him in a tallin hahaha it was on my flank... he didnt last even 5 minutes, he couldnt finish a dd with less than 1/3 of health... and start ranting againts me hahahaha that i was a terrible player and so on... the other teammate in the flank was an asashio, who put a smoke screen and left.. he also star ranting hahaha what was i supposed to do?? In front we have an Alabama, a lightning and a german premium cruiser... obviously i didnt do much... at the end, the whole enemy team survive... hahaaha there always will be a lame frustraded guy who blame others for his lack of brain cells... he only had like 60 battles in total lol...
Deadeye didn't need to be undetected for it to work, it needed no enemy ship to be within a Warships' standard detection, so if 12.7km is your surface detection, if no enemy ship is in 12.7km, you get the 10% Accuracy buff And no, its not broken, infuriating, yes, but not Borderline OP
If this isn't a reason why you should uninstall this game and find something else to spend your hard earned money on, then I don't know what to say!

Since the upgrades to this ship, I find that the AP is the way to go on anything broadside. 55k salvos are easy to get.
Bro found new love, Cristina Colombo.❤
She let him forget pain from ol luv Kurfurstina.💔
FYI, the stupid T5 battleship missions, I used the Derfflinger, gave me creates and one had a 10 skill Japan devil commander, and the other was a 6 skill German special commander.
Colombo is fun to play now. That line was painful grinding, I did it and stopped playing it. The Roma at the time was the only good Italian BB.
Lol, thats a dark time when a Roma is considered a good BB in any line. Roma is the definition of mid.
Do not sleep on the AP of colombo. Ive had some crazy hits with AP on BBs and cruisers that dare show broadside
Will have to look at the legendary module for the Colombo. I just got the Silica yesterday and have to say it has been a blast to play, though the guns / ammo works a bit differently and you want to try to get into the 7k-11k range to really be effective.

According to what I’ve read in the bug report section of the WoWs Discord, this is a “visual only” bug
How do get birds eye view with spotter plane? Mine just increase in distance..
Hit the 'c' key
I broke my normal RB plan just to get this UU and it's incredible!!

Balance Team isnt the brightest at Wargaming.
I wonder if they know what playtesting is.
I’m working my way through the tier 7 and I don’t enjoy it. Thankfully we have Asym running.
How much coal are you looking at to complete a collection? an average, or is it just completely random?
About the same as the cost of a Unique commander
@@sealordmountbatten Thank you
The line is still crap but Colombo with the UU is busted af
I SAP citadel'd/devstruck a Jinan from 30k HP in my Colombo. The UU is broken
When Libertad exists, Colombo isn't OP. It's good, but powercreep is real.

I have dev struck cruisers and hit by for 40k + dmg with AP, know your target, and where to shoot at; I promise you, AP won't disappoint you
@@sparty278 Also knowing your stats helps. As I said the SAP deals more damage, literally by 500 each per shell. I have played the game for 8 or 9 years.
@-sly-Critique Yes, I agree, the alpha damage is significantly higher, but it's situational
@@sparty278 Exactly so if you know how to aim with the SAP you will deal more damage than the AP to the exception of full citadel saying helo.
