  • Record of my 16th last game

Well, since of the folks was wondering how many experts earned for a particular game.
I had made a record of my 16 last game played.
Note, that I had social life mode and other stuff this time. So any of you can do this.

16th games for 600 experts. Considering games usually last 15 minutes max. This would
actually equal to 4 hours of pure gaming.
But as you know, we are playing Waiting Field, Resurrection of the Boredom, let's add 10
minutes for waiting .
Total in short? 3 hours if we round up.
7 hours for 600 experts quite fair, when you actually do something else during the waiting.

Pure Freebie player. If I were to run with premium. This would actually not be twice time
higher. But expect over than twice time. I am telling you this because I am the masoschist
who loves burning and aaing from scratch lot of time and had familiarize myself with.

So the trick is quite simple, for those of you who does not know this.
If you are AAing for experts, make sure the crew have even lvl and rookies proportion is
relatively the same.
Then all you need to do is get some AA ship.

Or if you can become "Attack BB", i.e. scoutless BB with pure AA it will also work as
fast. But beware, this setup will get you flamed or people will troll at you.
Personnal tip from my experience ;)

Note, with UK furious I get as much or even more.


The setup.

YES, my crew are a bunch of failure.

Restore as seaman, AA gunner as scout.... I am just too EMO to get ridd of them.

I think AA expert gain is largely, perhaps entirely based on number of rookies in the crew.

With a BB3-4 crew with 250+ rookies in most positions - so ~2500 rookies in the total crew
- the AA crit message would usually pop up with several experts gained. 4+ was not
uncommon and sometimes as many as 8.

As the crew improved to about ~800 rookies total onboard the AA message is almost always
only 1 expert and very rarely 2. Haven't seen 3 or more for a long time.

The lesson to be drawn there is that if you are going to AA for a better crew then roll
experts for vets after every game to keep the largest possible rookie pool.

So is there any difference as far as ship lvl and sailor lvl or is it pretty much the same
experts gain across the board?

I guess my question was pretty bizarre now that I read it again.

This also takes into account actually hitting planes with your AA, and not being a
useless, non-aiming, friendly plane zapper nub.
I was running a BB the other night w/ AA (which is kinda rare for me) and I hit 3 planes
in a row for 8 experts, 4 experts, then 8 experts again, all in about 15 seconds.
AA is definitely your friend if you need experts.

Technically, you can have tons of planes from AA and get no experts at all, while you
can shoot down one scout and get 30 experts for one game with premium.

It is random, but if you look it on a very large scale, the more you shoot, the higher
chance you get, I can confirm this.

Also, it is function to the number of slot on the ship and lot of fother factors.

That being said, I don't know how answer your question exactly. Let's say, the best time
to experts is when the crew is still filled with a bunch of rookies.



As for the one shooting at golden angle, I can't confirm it. Since I happen to get godlike
amount of experts some time from shooting down planes else than default height.


EDIT: Oh you mean credits.
Well, it isn't related to credits. Just planes on general. You can still get bunch of
experts from shooting few planes and rewarding much of experts, as well as having a great
amount of
credits and get fewer. It is still random, and that can be weird to notice sometime.

Did you correlate expert gain to ingame credits? It seems obvious that the more planes you
shoot down the more experts you get, but sometimes I have noticed some random experts
gained when I've only shot down a few scouts and no gains when I get like 8000 credits.
It also seems that plane height and distance can play a part. Like one-shotting scouts at
max range will make the pop-up box appear more often than killing scouts at golden angle.

No premium at all.

Richard, are you saying you did or did not have premium?
