So even the typical 305mm, 356mm BBs you see in this MM bracket will Overmatch Renown's extremities. To Overmatch Renown's 16mm extremities, all you need is 229mm or larger AP. Basically, if the AP shell is large enough against a specific armor section that it strikes, there are no Bounce Checks. Overmatch is a huge, HUGE mechanic in WoWS. Fuso and New Mexico are normal Battleships, they have 26mm extremities. Fuso superstructure is very tall, but there's also significant voids that lots of shells harmlessly pass through.Ī big defensive concern is Renown's 16mm extremities, because she's a ship from the RN Battlecruiser Line. Both ships rely on Shotgun Effect with 12 guns to get their hits.ĩ. There's really no real 'hiding' with Fuso.Ĩ. Above and beyond the worst, one of the easiest BBs to spot from far away. Solid protection scheme while Renown has weak extremities.Ħ. Not as fast as Renown but faster than New Mexico.ĥ.

Because even 'accurate' 6-8 gun BBs can still completely whiff a salvo.Ĥ. When they have to deal with Tier VIII-IX DDs with superior stealth and armament, IMO it really doesn't look good for them.Fuso is the best, most rounded Battleship of the 3 listed by the OP.ġ. The only Tier VII ships I have great concern for are Destroyers. Now imagine those said ships beating up on Tier V-VI ships. Myoko with her 'Zao Accurate' 203mm guns and strong HE. You got other HE DPM machines like Helena and her 152mm x FIFTEEN guns.

Schors despite her squishy hull can still capably engage at long ranges where many BBs struggle, and has great DPM and prowess fighting there with her 152mm x12 RU Railguns. They still have to respect Gneisenau and Scharnhorst speeds and their torpedoes.Īlgerie is still a good open water gun cruiser with her Engine Boost running and 203mm guns roaring. They still have to respect the HE prowess of KGV. High Tier BBs for example still have to respect the 16' guns of Nagato and Colorado.

It's a very strong tier against Tier V-VI, and can still put up a good fight against VIII-IX. It's where most of the ship line strengths start becoming pronounced. This is especially true for Cruisers and Battleships. Tier VII is the preferred tier, one of the Seal Clubber Tiers due to Match Maker.
