Meanwhile i have worked with my 2nd account. It takes times to get the legendary japanese captain campaign done, plus captains to all Shima line ships. But it is almost completed now and totally usable for me whenever i need again to use a 2nd account.
Playing Shima line is quite different for DD Pampa players. Often you try to use torpedo reloader and then you realise that you don't have it on Shima. I use 20km torps, both in Randomz and Rankedz, i don't see any disadvantages over 12km ones.
The game is full of DD Pampa ships now. Because it had really good cheaper deal. And, the ship really is good and unique. Just compare it with a free DD Johny etc, and those are really non unique and non anything.
I am already at Silver Rank 5 with the Shima, and can obviously complete the Gold league with it, i have before done it already. So, there really is no need for fancy premium ships. But the overall experience and feeling is much better with premium DD Pampa of course. As a torpedo player you just get twice more torpedos with Pampa. Already that makes the joy bigger compared to Shima.
It is clear that the Shimas legendary mod is only for competitive modes, result oriented goals. Not for entertainment goals because it makes the ship weapons turn so slowly that it is a pain to play. Must use constantly CtrlX keys and look to wrong directions, but you get a competitive advantages of getting torps quicker.
The free DD offered 1 token a day is something i ignore, i think many veterans ignore all the free goodies offered these days. If you already have tons of ships and you clearly like only Shima type boats then collecting an additional Johnny DD is totally pointless.
In a week i get the remaining 3k steel to buy out the planes cruiser. It will enrich my cruisers fleet, i don't have any planes one. And i will try it occasionally. But any other ships in the plans, No.
For veterans i suggest buying a 10 euro account with zero Randomz/Rankedz battles on it, just 1 TectTree T10 ship or 1 premium on it. And it is a variety to do 200 first battles with it to unlock Rankedz game mode etc, kind of an entertaining Mission/Campaign. I personally am too lazy to make an empty new account and grind a line there, so i would hapoily pay 10 money to get such account with such 1 line. Just know your favourite TectTree line. For me it is obviously the Shima line. And just 10 eur for it, totally reasonable, and a 2nd account is useful anyway and can be sold at any time back for the same 10 money or even 20. Anyone interested, contact and i guide. For a veteran such 2nd 10 eur empty account is like buying a Campaign, a joy to set it up, unlock game modes, get all kind of goodies that starter accounts get, also Campaigns etc. I totally enjoyed such 2nd account, so i must thank the community who blocked my main account for 1 day.
The main account is so mature, nothing to grind nothing to obtain, choice of all ship types. In a way it is boring, in a way it is super satisfying because no worries about moving captains or obtaining anything.
My 2nd account was few days in a higher rating clan. What is different there is that they play mainly Divisions, other clans don't do it much. Partially because of rating farming, but partially to just practice team work for later Clan Battles. The latter reason is very reasonable and i welcome that.
There is a last week going on of the Summer Mood, starting from next week everything goes to more competitive mode. Both Entertainment and Competitive Moods are fine, just too long of one is little bit boring.
Nothing much new, just let's keep enjoying the last Entertainment mode week.
