I feel this guide is mostly applicable to heavy cruiser as well. With the amount of overmatch in the game even heavy cruisers don't last much longer if they get caught in a bad spot open water.

light cruisers using rudder and spamming HE shooting max range on a flank is a nightmare to deal with and will deter most pushing bbs.

Good thing we have overmatch against all the HE spam....nobody will ever start pushing if there's no detterence to cksucking he spammers....

Hey thats me in the Halland that started on the flank with you!!! Glad to play with you buddy! We tried, felt like we held the flank pretty well, not that Im a pro by any means! Keep up the amazing videos, this one is incredibly informative.

I saw myself in a video once, not on this channel, I got blown to dust bunnies in about 20 seconds.

A key to getting better at this is to play the flank you spawn on, on any map, from any spawn point, in whatever ship you bring, top tier or bottom. Immediately running from your flank is the easiest way to throw a match before the first shot is fired. Excellent topic PQ, keep it up. o7

That skin you’re using on the ship is dope! Thx for sharing

Thanks for the vid . Really helpful cause there are no guide that really show how to play light cruiser.Most vids will just tell hug island and spam he

Excellent vid PQ As you said, open-water gunboating aboard a light cruiser is one of the hardest skills to master in this game, but can be a extremely helpful trick to have in the bag, especially for cruiser mains out there. I'm definitely saving this video as one of the most important guides i would recommend to any player wishing to improve his gameplay.

Thanks for your vids, PQ. Your aiming guide in particular has been so helpful and helped me improve my aiming so much!

This was really informative, thank you potato! Always have a hard time trying to hide by islands as any type of cruiser, and I generally find myself getting into these positions

With a light cruiser no ammount of angling whill save you really, you will still die pretty fast, the most important thing imo is being in range of as few enemies as possible, playing from the flanks, not the center. I never ever thought about trying to match my concealment with other ship, really good tip, thanks !

So... th first tip is to rely on your DD... in the random battle? seems fun

Matching concealment with your DD is a really usefull skill in Zao too.

Nice video, I play the ship open water all the time. But that’s usually because i’m running for my life!😁

I watch KZread videos where people pull this stuff off, however the reality usually goes like this: Fighting a light cruiser as a battleship: Overpens and more overpens. Getting shot at by a battleship when you’re the light cruiser: Gets citadelled 4 times from 3 different salvos. 2 through the stern, 1 through the bow, and the last because a shell bounced off the conning tower and went down into the ship.

Just got the Salem and against large caliber BBs, I'll be using these tips.

I play a cruiser main and this was super helpful as I am always getting dev striked from BBs. Thanks for the great content PQ!

this is a much needed educational video to teach the community how to use the map and not lemming train.

That Thunderer might benefit from watching your aiming vid !

Honestly as someone who plays the worcester a lot, i run range mod because it is insane for farming bbs at ranges where they wont hit you.

I'm enjoying the American Lt Cruiser Tech line. The mobility and distancing isn't fool proof but it sure can help your allied team by getting one or two enemy to fixate on your LC, as you appear to be a soft target (Look weak, deception) . Turrets facing toward the LC are not aiming at allied DDs, which can torpedo tunnel visioned opponents when allied DDs are not under pressure.

Damn, I knew that guy playing Worchester was really good, didn't realize it was you!

The only thing i would change on your build is to switch "Focus fire training" ( or "Demolition expert" if really you value that AA skill ) to "Priority target". Very useful to know when you get ping by the red team and it's time to go dark. Otherwise great tips !

@RomanAmirdzhanov

For people like PQ it is not a very useful skill, it's more of a waste of points. They are mostly aware of enemies' positioning, they know who might be shooting them and when. So it's more useful to gain some fire chance than to know for sure what you know already. But for me this skill is definitely useful and i tend to use it on some of my cruisers, especially on the squishy ones

@kalh5158

@@RomanAmirdzhanov Yeah i agree but it's a guide , it's meant for people who aren't unicum players, and still i think it's useful to know when you get torps for exemple, or when they're giving up because you're dodging too well and you can be more aggressive, or to know at the start (before everyone is spotted once) how many red ships are on your side (since very likely CL are focus first). 1% fire chance is more a waste of points to me or AA skills especially with Russian CV around. my 21 pts CL captain's skills are : Incoming fire alert , Priority target , AR , SI , SE , CE , Radio location (very useful to chase dd or getting away from them if i need to go dark, especially with french CL) and with the last pts it depends of the ship but either Gun feeder/Grease the gear or Last stand.

What do you think about Pyotr Bagration? Looks decent on the paper... Great video as usual :)

I feel like austin is the best Open water light cruiser, I often prefer to play it open water actually and somehow its become my favourite ship. Especially if there are no DD's you basically become a like a super dd yourself. Between its hella trollish armor and the ability to pick short bursty fights and then drop into invisibility again, it is really quite comfortable in the open. Also I've noticed shadowing your dd's in early game as you suggested is amazing, it wins so many games by catching out a overextending dd in the beginning.

Hi PQ, out of curiosity what is your average damage in the bourgogne? you mentioned in a previous video it is your highest avg dmg ship.

Godlike content…

Hi, I am looking for battleship that is fast, strong, and destroys everything !!! For a beginner, what do you recommend ! Thanks for the channel !!!

Open water heavy cruiser next!

Awesome video, was the auto aim system always this bad? Maybe I wasn't skilled enough to notice it.

that is exciting way to play light CL, for me it always ends like this, random BB smacks salvo towards me from max range, and im goooone! Priority target would be nice to have also, so if you see like 5 ships targeting you... then its time to shutdown the light and be like you are not there.

Funny that you mention that it's been aiming short... I've traditionally had pretty good aim but aiming at waterlines is rage inducing... Now that you mention that I'm wondering if I raise my aim a little bit if that will help.

Could you, please, on a future video just give us a quick glance at your normal Wooster captain? It'd be greatly appreciated!

Surprised you didn't change to ap against the thunderer at the end.

angling in a light cruiser can sometimes work but against bb caliber guns not so much 15 and above tend to just smash them playing open water is fun but its just a matter of who kills who first

I can't count how many times the far side of the friendly team screws the pooch with this tactic, fails, and we get cross-humped. It's so important to hold the side you start on.

i am confused about the open water comments, does it mean less islands or does he mean no waves?

good game but I do think you made an error with the dd at the beginning and not popping radar on them especially after damaging them so much. Radar could have let your dd finish them off.

Where's the part where you are the only one left on your flank at the 10 minute mark ? That tends to happen to me all the time

If you want to "make" yourself learn to kite fight in open waters; Pan Euro DDs. Oland is best, Oster works too, Halland not so much but you still can. For BBs and Cruisers get no closer than 9k launch torps then play a dodgy kite fight with HE out to 12+k. Burn baby Burn! All the better if they chase you.

Alternatively, just play Jinan and be devastating in open water and using islands.
