If you're expecting to do 40 or 42, remove tons of crew.

1 more question:

AD range and dmg vs O2 range and dmg?

on paper, no O2 should lose to an AD. The O2 outspeed, outrange and outdamage the AD.

on the field, an AD can be a real pain to hit in the hand of skilled player, and will be seen in battle surviving situations no other BB would have been able to get out off.


On speeds:

to know your cap, base speed x 1,7 rounded to the lowest integer.

25*1,7=42,5=42 at your current displacement. Of course, you need to level your crew to get better ability, and by leveling you gain weight, which lower your base speed on some ship.

You can hope to hit 24/40 briefly. lvl 120 crewed AD go 23/39. lvl 120 support with 2 lower levels sailors leveling in the T slot can go 40 tough.

Thx for answers!

Anyway, my BO is lvl 79 atm, gunners 81, AA-gunners 86, and supports 70 (i made new elite supports, cos of that they r that low lvl), i think im not ready for O2. Maybe it is good idea to play whith Bismark line (and AD)? Bissy BO is only lvl 60. What lvl gunners/supports i need for O2?

ATM my AD is 25/38 without AA.
