if you are searching for info about the furious and tyhinking about getting it=----
dont.. unless you are bored and have level 100 crew, dont touch it with a ten foot
pole..


PCA's used to be great.. they used to be very good for what you paid for them.. they
have obviously been nerfed into oblivion..


the at level guns shoot all over the place.. you cant even use gun angle to determine
where the hell the shells are going to go.. and this is with 100vet elite/premium.. so
these are pretty good gunners.. yet those shells just go wherever they want.. you
can sit there.. fire strait down, and the shell can end 2+ inchs away from your gun
line.. mix that with multiple shells and that ='s shotgun.


This is for you on the fence about getting it.. dont.. $DE broke the PCA

ive played the furious through multiple sets of gunners.. ive leveld reload gunners acc
gunners AA gunners and also ELite accuracy gunners which im useing now!!!

now when i use the furious its always with at level crews or slightly above.. at present
im useing lvl 53 gunners on the furious with a scout pilot as my bo because all my other
sailors are past 61 and i dont have any room left for another bo-

the furious is a premium ca.. it has what no other ca has and it has it in a blitz (noob
battle) it has 15 inch tripple guns.. now thew closest thing you will get in a bb to
these monster guns are the tripple 16 inch guns at lvl 91 or the qaud 14's at lvl 78 or
something like that..

while the trip 15's dont have the range of the higher level guns they are still the third
most damageing gun the uk ships have, and you have these at lvl 48.. now im hopeing people
can see what im trying to get at here!!

your level 48 and your fire power is that of a bb4 hmm.. so surely having extremely
accurate gunners at lvl 48 would indeed make this ship unstoppable in a blitz..

i can tell you now, lvl 60 gunners 11/11 boosted with 50 vets makes this ship the send
best blitz ship in the game.. the first bets is the revenge bb. and lets not forget that
the furious is only a CA!!!! so do not expect to have super cool spread and tight fire
with this ship at level its just not practical and would ruin the game for every one else
in the blitz.

the only thing a lvl 57 furious driver is worried about is a cv. i promise you that. like
i said before ive been playing the furious for a few years through a few diffrent crews. i
used it to level multiple gunners and scout pilots and also new fighter pilots and bombers
for my cv5 and the furious is an absolute beast .. i simply cannot wait for my lvl 53
acc elite gunners to reach lvl 55-57.. ill have 3 whole levels of utter blitz bashing at
hand. a good opportunity to raise my 50% ratio to ohh maybe 53%

so yea dont mock the furious, sure it sucks ass big time at lvl 48 lol its going to like
all ships at level gunners blow big time, its the same for every ship nation upto around
lvl 75.. with uk ships your guns need to be a good 7-10 lvls higher than the guns you want
to use to get any kind of accuracy from them.

i love the furious and at lvl 53 gunners its starting to become accurate and my blitz
scrore is hovering around 50k attack at present each game.. i know when it hits 55-57 ill
be scoreing alot more. a hell of alot more.

but yes at level gunners on the furious are not fun stick with your county till your lvl
53+ and use a bo lol. this also plays a major part on your gunners accuracy.. my recon
pilot is playing havoc with my effectivness due to the lines not being long enough and not
seeing where my shells are going or how far they travel.. im having to try and remember
the angles and ranges lol makeing playing my furious a bit more fun . ive accidentaly
miscalculated a few times and took out the odd team mate.. sorry guys :)

Furious is far and away the worst PCA, lagging behind the Asama, the SN PCA, MN PCA,
Pensacola and Moltke in that order.

"Its long slenderness enables you to dodge shells efficiently, and it maintains a good speed"

It is that size and its inbuilt fragility that make it an easy kill for me. Twice the hit
area of Moltke, SN or MN PCA. And one hit cripples, second kills. Not so the other PCA.

AA is a MAJOR problem. It can be used as AA ship, but you get far better results in an
Emerald running AA, it can carry more ammo (and yes I know RN AA is not good, but at least
the T-slot space on the Furious could match the Emerald in size)

I have run Furious with level 83 Reload and 120 Acc gunners on the main guns. Spread is
STILL worse than any of my other PCA. Great with the shell damage WHEN you hit something,
but I prefer skill to luck. If I miss I can call myself an idiot. If I miss in Furious, I
call the ship "broken"

And anyone who has classed AA gunners below level 100 in RN just to use PomPoms has wasted
their crew for later levels. 10/12 Armourment crew levelled to 106 will just hit the
reload cap, AA gunners classed as any AA below level 90 will never hit the reload cap.

Furious is a good ship...

Its long slenderness enables you to dodge shells efficiently, and it maintains a good speed.

If you like, it can equip a nice AA armament as well.

not all PCAs are made for AAing. KM and US are good for AAing. anyway stop complaining
about a Prem ship since you dont HAVE TO BUY IT.

I must say that at lvl 48 50 with BVE Elite ACC Gunners and the lvl 48 3x15" all shots
above 20 degrees are all over the place.

I guess it never was any different but it's not what u expect when you buy a premium
ship. (Wich comes with lvl 52 guns btw.) It find it slightly annoying that when you buy a
premium ship it's "broken" or at least hard to use to it's full potential at level.

All PCA's are quit good with somewhat higher level crews but only at large maps. I have
the same issue with my County: it used to be a formidable opponent to my Balty about
3 years ago cause Hobbit war was not around. Now I run the County with the 8"D's
and lots of belt. Still miss the suspense of the long range duels though.

Furious is a good ship, i don't remember if there is another pca that holds 15 inch
guns. you can mount good armour on it. Don't expect too much from it. You can kill
rushing ships, ss's or rushing bb's at the end of battle. If you are expecting to kill
some bb's in the begining or in the middle of the battle. Please don't expect much
from this ship.

furious is really bad.. my opinion (at level it is even worse..) (with sailors of good level
boosts and vets every ship is better anyway)
worst CA worth only buying for extra slot perhaps...
at level it is even the worst aa ca with not enough space for decent amount of 5.25
ammo..

very good food
