P. Rupprecht at T8 is very good too Marlborough is also worth mentioning simply for the highest DPM at the tier, but she does require a backline playstyle.
I agree 99% with you peek. The only ship I’d add to this list is the king of secondaries and that Prinz Rupprecht. With Hyde she is a monster if played right, 11.6 km secondaries and 5 heals is great, yes the main battery accuracy isn’t the best but once you are in secondary range it’s barbecue time
Peek play style with BB's is to sit back, hide behind a rock, and bow tank. Scharnhorst is a brawler BB, with good secondaries, turtleback armor, and torps. I played 562 games with Scharnhorst and have 72% wins. It is a very good T6 BB.
@@icecool8661 yeah i can tell from this list that peak is the type of player to sit behind rocks thats why he has no battle cruisers in the list and if it doesnt have a good bow or accuracy he problably wont play it
I had a 220k game in Musashi with, among others, a clear skies medal against a Lexington. It has AA. Not the best. But it is there. ALSO! The fact that you didnt mention P. Rupprecht for T8 is a crime.
I honestly find Marco Polo pretty good. The SAP shells are really useful for cruisers or angled BBs, an the italian smoke screen lets you reposition safely.
I think Hood at tier 6 should've been mentioned, yes she's squidgy but when angled properly she's pretty tough, she's fast and her guns hit hard, her sonar catches destroyers pretty hard n HE slaps
Totally agree with you about tier 7. There are so many really good BBs in the tier, if there wasn't so much HE spam at tier 7, BBs would rule the waves at that tier. Tier 7 is my go to pick for the most well rounded gameplay between all the classes. Tier 8 can have some potential if they continue to flesh it out and add more diverse ships. Legendary tier could have been great, but unfortunately it will always be a shit show due to 90% of the bureaus being available to any potato that can pick up a controller.
Also, Lenin should be recognized. While it can't be obtained anymore, it's stupidly well armored and shrugs off HE like flies. And the guns are laser beams out to about 12km, which is just fine because nothing is going to stop Lenin from closing that gap. It's nearly as maneuverable as Alabama and has a better rudder shift. Oh and it's fast too
Tier 5...West Virginia is a sniper boat that has served me well, and the guns overmatch most of the tier....yes shes slow but turns well and at 17k range mine can crossfire well
Personal fav per tier: V Izmail - Skill based BB that rewards players who play it correctly at mid ranges. (Got 7 kills and 4 devsteikes in 1 game with this thing!) VI Sinop - The only tech tree ship that is close to being this good is NC but it's accuracy is like a sinop at far ranges, but at any range with the NC. VII Pick any VII American - all tier 7 American bbs have great armor, aa, accuracy, great AP angles on some, and secondaries. There is an American bb for every occasion. Now with the addition of the NJ ship and commander, America is at its strongest at this tier. VIII - Sov hands down. Those things just don't die sometimes!!!! Literal floating titanium bathtub with great guns. * Yamato. Enough said. Wish they would rebuff its accuracy a bit with tier 8 and legendary matchmaking now.
I’m not surprised that you left two of my favorites out because I know it isn’t your preferred play style but Odin andMarco Polo are both ships that I love. Odin is a rare BB in that it can contest caps extremely well. You can pull into an island and play it like a Hipper. It has planes to spot over islands and deal with aircraft, a good 5km sonar, high dpm and a 16 second reload with my build while still using both accuracy inspirations. Add in torps and a decent rudder and I just love it. The quick reload allows me to switch shell types often so I’m usually shooting the correct shell. I can absolutely hunt DDs in this BB which is not something I would recommend in pretty much any other BB. My most played ship with close to 2m xp. Marco Polo is a ship I like a lot. The SAP shells are incredibly consistent and do way more damage than I expected them to do. 16 inch Italian guns absolutely slap when I switch to AP on broadside targets. Italian tt ships are inaccurate but MP and Roma with Iachino and Cunningham are more accurate than they get credit for and they have great ballistics. Solid list overall. The two I mentioned are just personal favorites of mine.
I second your opinion sir on the Odin...my favorite ship in the game...with respect to Peek's list, I like the up close/brawling game play better...the Odin does that better than any other ship IMHO...low profile, good armor...small fast firing guns with torps...play her like a very heavy cruiser and she is tough to push out of those caps.
@@xTouragx I’m with you 100% on brawling BBs. I personally find them much more fun to play than long range BBs and I think they have more impact on actually winning the game. As a solo player, you just can’t count on your teammates to do things like cap and target DDs
Can someone explain what is going on with the Alabama and send me a link to some recent play? All my rounds just ricochet... Something with the alpha must be wrong.
If anyone sees this comment, i have a question: on the legendary side of things, i usually play the G. Kurfürst. However, i am not fully happy with it and want to get one more legendary battleship. My question is this: should i go for the yamato or buy myself the schlieffen project? Obviously the yamato has the best main armamanet in the game, but the schlieffen has the best secondary range of them all, plus torpedos.
Because of the last week and the premium boosters being offered, I have reunited with my affection for BBs. And more importantly, Aaron and, to a larger degree, you have given me the strategies to excel at my BB play. Many thx. Oh yeah, great video, you rager! 🤣😉🤙
@@TheT95tutel Russian cruisers have good ballistics so it’s easy to shoot and hit targets American split techtree that leads to Kansas is good because Kansas has the highest dpm out of any bb since you get 12 406mm and North Carolina is one of the best tier 6 bb Italian bb’s are pretty tanky and more brawler focused it’s a fun line Pan Europe dd’s only get good at skane and ostergotland Russian dd’s aren’t really that good nor in the current meta French dd are a blast considering from the tier 5 and up you get two main battery reload boosters base and good hp French cruisers are agile and are built to juke people to Make them overshoot or u undershoot and at charles martel you get main battery reload booster so she’s really good french bb’s are ok but that’s about it only get to 380mm so no overmatch and if you want good secondaries for bb the split German bb techtree is fun and really good for secondaries wouldn’t waster your time playing German cruisers they blow up easy and take a lot of pens and dmg
@@TheT95tutel I’d say it’s about mid pretty decent stealth above number of guns ok reload torps are slow but have good range you just don’t get many of them
Peek I don't know if you remember when NC came out its shells shot realy high like a cruser and dropped with great accuracy on decks of bbs from long range I cit a terpits from the deck
i really felt like Georgia should of been at least better then Alabama considering you get bigger guns,better,dispersion,speed boost,speedy heal while it’s more vulnerable and can get cit at weird angles but that’s a case of the pros outweighing the cons plus wile running the American plotting room you still get a reload of 26 second’s and biggest alpha of any bb with even 1k more then yammie and the only ship at tier 7 that can manhandle Edinburgh’s. considering you can overmatch 30mm and just a tiny bit better AA and with the New Jersey commander you can get her to do 19,9k per citadel
I would love to agree about the Soyuz but that ship is a citadel waiting to happen. Even if they're not flat broadside you can still do good damage against them. I personally like the Maine over the Soyuz but that's just me
Thanks for the video Peek,. Got a quick question for you, I have over 900 global XP,. I'm having a hard time picking between the Alabama and the Suzuya. Not sure which one to get already have the Massachusetts.
Go for Suzy. Fifteen rounds every ten seconds and you're almost guaranteed a fire with every salvo. Tons of long range torpedoes for kiting. Just a really fun cruiser all around if you can play at long range and have good incoming shot awareness.
Alabama is king at tier 7, but considering I just picked up the constellation and I love battle cruisers so we shall see, but your statement is false about the overmatch on the 18.1in guns the Friedrich der Große and the Sov. Soyuz can both bow tank the shells...
At you talking about? Where Alabama is more accuravy like Massachusetts. This two ships are like twins, the same main battery. The same dakotaclass battleship. Men wake up or dont tell Bull shit. Good swimming 😉
P. Rupprecht at T8 is very good too
Marlborough is also worth mentioning simply for the highest DPM at the tier, but she does require a backline playstyle.

This is the sort of video I like. I have been playing since Oct 2023 and really like the game! Playing destroyers at the moment.
I know this video is a bit old, however, I just recently looted a Warspite from a crate. Talk about love at first shot! What an amazing ship
I can't believe he didn't put scharnhorst on this list, u can basically walk in a battle taking hits and still can keep on walking.
I thought about it but it’s just not quite top shelf anymore.
If only it could dish it out as good as it takes it.
Peek play style with BB's is to sit back, hide behind a rock, and bow tank. Scharnhorst is a brawler BB, with good secondaries, turtleback armor, and torps. I played 562 games with Scharnhorst and have 72% wins. It is a very good T6 BB.

Video quality looks great Peek!. Great vid. For me, Republique is the best BB in the game at any tier. No arguments on your selections at all.
Great video! I also liked your New Jersey vs Iowa stream. 👍
My thoughts exactly 💯....
This definitely will help me deciding on the direction I am going on my battleship play....thanks for the video!
Actually surprised Ruprecht wasn’t a mention at T8, I don’t have it yet but it gives me a headache when I play against it lol
I just happened to come across This video randomly, great to see and hear peek again 😁

No love for the torpedoes
Would you change this given the new changes and what's out there now
Got a chance to tour Alabama she is a pretty ship for sure
What you think about lepanto... would put video of the ap build
You need to do this with crusaders & Dd. Very informative. There’s no deny about you & Bama. You are a citadel monster in that ship.

I can't wait till Kremlin is added to legendary teir I love my soviet BB
What is that triangle camo? I’m new…

I just finished grinding british bb tech tree. What should I do next?
What tech trees have you not finished? I’ve done them all so I can help choose one that fits your style
@@justatroll777I've only finished the british one.
@@TheT95tutel Russian cruisers have good ballistics so it’s easy to shoot and hit targets
American split techtree that leads to Kansas is good because Kansas has the highest dpm out of any bb since you get 12 406mm and North Carolina is one of the best tier 6 bb
Italian bb’s are pretty tanky and more brawler focused it’s a fun line
Pan Europe dd’s only get good at skane and ostergotland
Russian dd’s aren’t really that good nor in the current meta
French dd are a blast considering from the tier 5 and up you get two main battery reload boosters base and good hp
French cruisers are agile and are built to juke people to Make them overshoot or u undershoot and at charles martel you get main battery reload booster so she’s really good
french bb’s are ok but that’s about it only get to 380mm so no overmatch
and
if you want good secondaries for bb the split German bb techtree is fun and really good for secondaries
wouldn’t waster your time playing German cruisers they blow up easy and take a lot of pens and dmg

Would amagi still be good? I know its armour and health are bad but thing hits like a truck on steroids

Why u snuffin meh Scharnhorst 😢
I actually loved the start with the thicc girl Cali. Don’t have Warspite but always hate to see it in a game. Mass is such a balanced ship.
i really felt like Georgia should of been at least better then Alabama considering you get
bigger guns,better,dispersion,speed boost,speedy heal while it’s more vulnerable and can get cit at weird angles but that’s a case of the pros outweighing the cons plus wile running the American plotting room you still get a reload of 26 second’s and biggest alpha of any bb with even 1k more then yammie and the only ship at tier 7 that can manhandle Edinburgh’s. considering you can overmatch 30mm and just a tiny bit better AA and with the New Jersey commander you can get her to do 19,9k per citadel

Sharn and Robert for pen

What about hood and Bismarck
No JB for tier 7?

Hello, im new to the game. How do you get the tier 7 Georgia battleship?? Thank you!
Premium and global xp when it offers. Watch latest video before buying.
Also read the comments.
You can devstrike battleships with the Izmail. Use lev with Cunningham and Nikolai von Esson. And ya this at tier is the best.
I come from pc. And i used to play Sinop and liked it the most. Is the Sinop on console the same?
I think I bumped into in WoWs you last night ... I think we won 🙂

My favorite tier V is the West Virginia. Solely for the guns
no Nagato for T6?
Lyon has 16 guns, with one friend that’s 32 and with two friends it’s 48.
Am I only other gripe is the Republic on PC it's tear or legendary teir. So it's absolutely going to dominate at teir 8
Would be nice to see a tech tree Only list
T5 arizona, T6 scharnhorst, T7 Mass, T8 republique, L Yammy
You missed all of the other tier 7s that are good
Battleships - the reason I play wows legends
Se ve que no has jugado con el P. Rupprecht en el Tier VIII ni con el Burgogne en el Tier Legendario. Saludos!
