Why not to buy Outcast Dreadnought? (Ranseur)

[Crazyr0m]

I suggest, don't buy or fly dreadnoughts they are super easy target against anything
Ranseur is very useless against Cruisers,Battlecruisers,Light BS and Medium BS but effective against Heavy Battleships well not really though
Weapon arcs matter in Heavy BS vs Heavy BS fights

Your main oppenents are Tokugawa,Legate and Valor
Tokugawa is one of the best Heavy Battleship in the game.Best thing to do is stay away from Tokugawa and try to do some damage from far, close range combat is very diffucult to win with Ranseur
Legate is better than Tokugawa at close range combat in my opinion because of its very fast turn speed and very good arcs It can fire 4 heavies,2 primary to broadside it is very hard to takeout a skilled legate with ranseur
Valor is still best heavy battleship, it can dodge better than any heavy bs and can fight at close range better than ranseur it also have main cannon that deals nearly 1m damage, can hit heavy battlesihps very often with it

Ranseur
Broadside: 2 Heavy 2 Primary
Rear: 2 Heavy 2 Primary

Legate
Broadside: 4 Heavy 2 Primary
Rear: 2 Heavy 4 Primary

Valor
Broadside: 4 Heavy 3 Primary
Rear: 2 Heavy 4 Primary

Tokugawa
Broadside: 3 Heavy 2 Primary
Rear: 4 Heavy 4 Primary <- Can't fire 4 Heavies to rear if you move around too much

If you want to win battles, use sarissa instead of ranseur
Sarissa biggest medium battleship and tanky but can't take out Light BS and Medium BS at 1v1 because of its size they can hit you very often
Also Heavy BS have more chance to kill the sarissa

Outcast Capital Ships very underpowered, they look better than other battleships tho but definetly needs buff

Dreadnoughts very weak against everything in this game but good at sieging bases
Cruiser vs Heavy BS = No chance doesnt matter how skilled you are
BC vs Heavy BS = No chance ^
Light BS vs Heavy BS = You can't win at long range combat, you have to cruise and stop when your within 1k range, you need cd support too
Med BS vs Heavy BS = ^same as light bs also don't stop your cruise at 2k range, med and light bs can dodge even at 1.4k
Heavy BS VS Heavy BS = Armor and Weapon loadout matters and also weapon arcs

So it's like useless against any ship, that' what I understand from your post. Just good to bring bases down.
Other people said its only good at close range and you say its no good at close >.<
The developers themselves said Sarissa is one of the weakest but you say it can win battles.
Anyway thanks for the info, I must take it all into account.
