WoWS ST 0.9.10, changes to test ships

~ Sebastianul

Changes to Italian battleships and Mysore

We adjusted the parameters of the following ships based on testing results.

Commonwealth cruiser Mysore, Tier VI:

  • Added the Repair Party consumable;
  • Changed AP shells parameters:
    • Maximum damage increased from 3,100 to 3,300;
    • Initial velocity increased from 841 to 870 m/s;
    • Increased armor penetration.
  • Main battery reload time increased from 7.5 to 9.5 s.

Andrea Doria, Francesco Caracciolo, Vittorio Veneto, Cristoforo Colombo, Tiers VI – VIII, X:

  • Accuracy of secondary caliber guns lowered to the standard values.

Italian battleships’ secondary guns had a rather small caliber and high accuracy. Such a combination of parameters lead to frequent hits on the same part of the ship without penetration and with a low number of fires. Changes to their accuracy will allow them to hit different parts of ships at close range and cause more fires.

Please note that all information in the development blog is preliminary and subject to change during testing. Any showcased features may or may not end up on the main server. Source: WoWS Devblog.

They differ from last year’s only with a glowing spotlight.

“I don’t remember who came up with this great idea, but it wasn’t until the end of the operation that we began to remake our vehicles to resemble those of the enemy.” We used everything at hand: barbed wire, chains, paint … No one could tell our vehicles from the bad ones, even from a short distance. And now we want everyone to see where we fought and how we survived.
This unique 3D style for German vehicles was developed by Masahiro Ito, character designer and background creator best known for his contributions to the Silent Hill franchise.
