  • Delayed Gunner Classing

I know it wasn't the smartest decision, but I wanted to play with a blocking York in
blitz, so I got a EBVE Acc gunner and classed them as Acc.

I realize this means that I can't hit reload cap till early 100s, but I'm wondering if
there's a way to mitigate this a little:

Delay classing them as Acc. Huge Gunners (normally at 65) until I hit Nelly/PoW level
(around 80 with BOs, but gunners will be in 90s since I'm running both lines).

This means I'm effectively stuck in my Resolution or Dunkerque until then, might buy
a Repulse for a change to KM playstyle for awhile if I get bored, but overall that's not
too bad. There's not real reason for me to use a QE if I have a Resolution right?


So what this means is:
Essentially from 65 to 85-90 ish, my gunners will have 6 less ACC but 4 more RLD
growth than standard classed gunners. I think their max crew (Recruit) gain rate
might be worse than standard classed gunners, I don't know how much of an effect
this has though.

I rechecked the Sailor Ability guide and a base 10 UK ACC gunner with 100 vets hits
his acc cap at 63. This is before the level 65 classing to Huge Gunner, so if I leave the
classing as is, there should be theoretically no negative impact on my accuracy, only
on my crew growth rate.

Essentially, the only reason I need to class them at all is to access the Nelly/PoW tier
guns (probably skipping KGV) as Dunkerque Quads, QE Guns, Dreadnaught guns,
etc. can all be used without a Huge Gunner.

So is the Ability guide out of date? Or will this let me hit my reload cap before the
usual level 110?

Messed has been done. There is nothing much to do about it, unless you level
another pair of gunner.


You are still stucked in every way, you would NOT be able to use any thing else
than BB1 guns, by classing them late, you are struggle to use crap guns with
accuracy classed only.

You are still stucked if class now, as you will have to wait long time before
capping the reload.

One thing, some accuracy gunners do not even hit the reload cap at lvl 120
with 100 vets and max experts.


In short, either you stick with the gunners, or lvl up a new pair.
