Hi all,
I know the topic about which line to choose has been discussed to death but I just want to ask a more focused question.
KM is my second nation and I don't plan to spend a huge amount of effort on it (yet, at least not until I get a BB5 on my IJN line). For this reason, I am trying to base my choice of line on which BB2 I will enjoy more, just to have fun with at level. I want it to be the ship I take out to have a fun break from my main grind.
Now, from the Speedcap Table I can see that the Genise pretty much caps at level (I am lvling 4 +11 eng and will vet/expert them to a reasonable level). The O-pro caps at roughly lvl 90 (which I am not planning to get for a long time).
However, from Panda's guide I can see the Gneise runs at 51 knots OH capped, and the O-pro at 54.
OK, apologies for the long backstory, here are my questions:
1) I think that in order to enjoy my BB2 at level, I would want to use the 3x 11"/C34 L, so I get BB3/4 range to play with. From a style point of view I think the turrets look better on the Gneisenau, but is there any reason either ship (Gnei or O-pro) would be better suited to using the 11"?
2) The O-pro is faster when capped but caps much later. Speed is very important to me as a player and I am very attracted by the KM speed/range combo. I want the fastest ship but I don't want to regret choosing O-pro if I have to grind my way to cap it. Which ship (Gneise or O-pro) is faster AT LEVEL with 4 OK but not overkill engineers?
Many thanks for future advice =)
BTW my crew is lvl 39 ATM and I am loving the M-pro =P
