i never played a asama at level, but i'd assume it'd suck horribly...

but with my lv 120 crew, the asama is a fun ship...i use it for FL once or twice, with
good results.

you have to use asama like your playing km.

NO armor, buldge nothing, take speed and the 14'', rush then run.

Notes ;)

- Asarma is not worth the money or level, b65 is better then that.

- The AA spread on Asarma is all not that great, I use lvl 80 DP gunners and even
then I struggle to bring down some of the more sturdier planes. However I continue
on and I am starting to get better at it.

- The Emden and Moltke make the Asarma look like an AA Frigate, all other PCA's
beat the Asarma hands down.

- Needs something worthwhile to make it something worth having.

even before, Furious dual 15" (of UK shell :P) overpowered it.

Its nice to be ran without main guns and an AA battery to kill planes with the 4,7.

Thing is, you need good AA gunner to really pull efficiency from them. So 80+. At asama
level, they shouldn't be classed yet.

So its ONLY purpose is leveling mid-level crew quickly if you dont have KM or fleet war
where BB are limited if you normally arent taking a BB spot due to various reason. I have
one of my acc since i had the 5$ it cost, but i used it a grand total of 3-4 times.
Mainly, if my fleet needs a PCA and someone wants an Asama with 100+ AA gunners, they can
jump on my acc.

Now that I got KM and moltke its a bit useless. altough a Molkte with 3,46 and an Asama
with 4,7 teaming up must be murder for AA coverage :)

^^
is there a suggestions thread somewhere with that asama in it? cos it looks at least 5
times better than the current crap bucket.

Well since someone already necro'd this thread I might as well re-post this:



What the Asama should be like(credit goes to scottyuk)

With Furious now capable of mounting an unique 15" triple Asama is now officially the
weakest PCA in firepower.

it's a really lame ship...

You know what's ironic? People who tell other people to search when they haven't even
searched for it themselves..

i love asama

Now the flames come out

"wondering if i could get some input on the IJN PCA is it worth it? How does it match up?
good bad or ugly? etc "

You should'nt ask such a vague question when you do that, you get the answer
on what is already about, enough information is on these fourms to answer your
question(s)

Hence why we don't need another pointless thread
Also droping a "GTFO" could easily get you banned.
