If anything the dpm should be moderately higher since you won't be setting fires or breaking as many modules ( I think. The dpm against destroyers would make these the first line of cruisers which are better of ignoring shooting DD's and trying to be useful dealing damage on other targets. On the topic itself, SAP only getting 10% sounds like an error. Gunboat DD's can easilly kill a cruiser if the cruiser is not playing right and let's himself get ambushed giving broadside to say a Grozovoi or Khaba at close range for instance. Gunboats are supposed to get detected, a Khaba you don't see an entire match just as well might have been AFK that's how much use he was for his team. The only thing I can accept is that they can recieve an increased dispersion when firing against a DD.Ĭruisers can easely get oneshotted so why shouldnt DDs, they even have more defensive capabilities.īecause they are getting 'all that' and yet your win rate in battleships is substantially higher and your win rate in cruisers which you claim to be so much harder is on the same level as those hard to play destroyers? Youre not supposed to get detected and youre not supposed to engage a cruiser, they are supposed to counter you. Why do DDs get reduced everything, no full pens from BBs, reduced damage from SAP etc.

I dont understand why it needs to be reduced.
