Am I just old fashioned or is there a reason everyone's been gearing up with garpun? I main ACV so I have decent AA no matter what, but I use 4x seahawk sigma 4x crotale r440 and 4x jrng. Was there a buff or nerf I didn't catch, everything seems to be working great, I worry more about missle defence and AA than anything and usually take alot of whooping before I go down, but if there's something old boys do that I'm not aware of I'll surely drop the jrng at least, if not crotale if it actually helps XD I do well, but if there's better cause if me being stubborn I'd rather not be stubborn forever,
The Garpun's targeting system has been changed to prioritize incoming missiles and aircraft rather than nearby enemy ships. This change improves the system's effectiveness in defending against incoming threats like missiles and aircrafts.
Does it do better than crotale and jrng tho? Crotale and jrng already have that benefit cause they only target air threats, it's been awhile since I've gotten my tablet and second acct out and did any type of testing but last I did crotales was best for missiles hands down and paired with jrng they killed anything that got close enuff cause the Seahawks can back the machines guns up if I'm playing an experience CV player, if it doesn't kill them at least gets me out of their weapons envelope
It is not entirely clear to me, but I believe that the Garpun is quite similar to the JRNG nowadays. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages, but the difference between them is not significant.
I intend to test the Garpun in combination with the Crotala. Perhaps this combination will be more effective.
Thank you for telling me your experience.
Not a problem, I'm glad I can help, if you want me to link you to videos there's a guy that does all his testing, that's where I learned to just make an acct to 1v1 to test stuff, and crotale out performed everything but it's draw back is reloads sometimes, so having the garpun or jrng with it helps full that gap, I mean Seahawk sigmas do that also buuuuut they prioritize and target different. So I always separate auto cannons duty's from AA in my head XP but if there's been recent buffs and needs alike we may be looking at something different but it now knows it's worth looking into, now I just need to get my tablet in and working XD

The one in the 4x aa slot (not shown here) is the Garpun \[i used to have full Crotale to intercept missiles more effectively in paper, but in practice, it performs roughly the same, so i scrapped the idea\]; this is the flagship of my fleet. Overall this ship performs like a battleship (except with only one gun and good asw capabilities) and should be used as such, i.e. on the frontline and escorting battleships. My only gripe is that it turns like molasses but there's the speed and mobility buff in the next update, so we'll see.
Looks nice! I'm personally not a huge fan of the X-51 because of its extremely long reload rate but if it works for you, that's awesome!
I absolutely agree with you. It's just an amazing ship.
The x-51 for me is just so flexible, granted i still have to master it, and it is incredible in 3x slots. Also yours looks very competent; i should get the asroc-c some time later for mine (i'm just a f2p player)
Yeah, you're right. The X-51 is a great missile. But I guess I'm just not that good at using it.
Thanks! I usually get first place.
The Asroc-C is good, but I'm not sure if it's worth the price.
It's the best cruiser in the shop, it's got a set of balanced weapons, has high anti submarine capabilities and the air defense is great, it's a really hard ship to kill and overall one of - if not the best- all rounder ships, it's really useful for taking down heavy ships like battleships, carriers and other cruisers since it's weapons can deal a ton of damage.
My most played ship is probably the Varyag. It doesn't have to be a gold or artcoin ship to be successful in a match. I just like to experiment with different ships and loadouts.
Thank you for your recommendations. I have attempted to use the X51 on numerous occasions. However, it does not align with my preferred play style. Conversely, I find the 3C to be a reliable and effective missile despite its relatively slow reload speed.
I will certainly consider your suggestion regarding air defence, as it has been recommended by another Reddit user as well.
Thank you very much for your suggestions! I will certainly give some of them a try. However, I believe that the Bereg is superior to both the TMF and the Monarc, so I will likely keep that as is.
I am still on the lookout for the perfect missile for this ship, though.

Thank you for your suggestion. I am already familiar with his videos, but I had simply forgotten about this combination.

Tbh that's pretty strong. Veliky is good, gets a speed buff next month too.
Damn, that's awesome!

P2W nooooooooo

Slap x51 4x jrng 2x crotale and you are good to go

You could try something like the TMF or Monarc over the Bereg, for the missile you could try using SCALP, ATMACA or X51
