“Look at me Hector!”
Last chance to look at me Hector
Hectorrr.... Hectorrrrrrrr
"eyyyyy Hector, look at me mang"
Now the English CL will die with you！
I said exactly this when I first saw this ship🤣
Keep in mind that Hector is going to be running 3 spoon engines. And on top of that, 3 T66 turbos, with NOS, and a Motec system exhaust.

For sure going to race wars
This was the best possible comment on this video.
I like this ship. It looks and feels (so far) very similar to tier 6 Perth. Fast shooting guns that can penetrate/set couple of fires, decent armor (for a British/Commonwealth cruiser), torpedos have great firing angles and decent speed, crawling smoke, hyddro and heal are great combos. Doesn't get spotter, fighter or airplane depth charges though.
The wide torpedo spread would appear to be ideal for drive-by YOLO charges in co-op. This seems like an ideal bot-basher. Roll on, the next reset!
"HECTOOOOOOORRR!!!"
Is that a Troy reference? >:)
@@TaskForce-ql3bx you got it! 😆
She is interesting for sure, and if someone likes light cruisers will probably love her. She seems like she would be easier to play then most other light cruisers at the tier just by having that smoke, and being able to at least set fires for damage but still require high skills to not get deleted by enemies. The downside is still her tier... it won't take much for a super ship to focus her down very quickly, even in smoke.
I won't be getting another research bureau ship for some time, but I will have to watch how she performs in games and maybe pick her up.
As a huge fan of Dido, I’m looking forward to this ship
I'm not too high on Hector, but seeing the ship in action does make me a little more interested in it. I might just pick it up once I'm done regrinding lines and have my pick of RB ships before I do it all again.
"Hector. How nice to see a fellow pirate make good of himself."
Looks good to me - plan to get tht
When are you doing a video on the YOLO?
I like it. Actually might get this.
Light cruiser main who loves my Plymouth/jinan/Neptune. Also, tho different in practice, love my vampire w crawling smoke. Combined with the fact I am down to the Slava and Ohio as RB ships I haven't got(and aren't too interested in), this'll resolve what I do next with my rb points. o7
Just in time for the next x2 RB point!
This is really fun ship and it’s got nice tools
Me the ship I've been waiting for, it's the Brisbane, I think you'll like it too
Hmm… thought I was done for a bit after getting Colbert last month. I am a sucker for he spammers. I’ll probably get her over Yolo for my next rb ship. Great review, thanks!
unlike coal ships, with research ships I recommend going for the most expensive first. I just got the Slava, I'm working towards the Gibraltar, after that I think its the British dd that only shoots ap.
LOOK AT ME HECTOR
I think you missed discussing how this ship compares to the Sejong, that would probably be the closest ship in stats and play style. Otherwise good vid!
I'm interested, but will wait to see her final form
You could use the smoke upgrade for coal.
“Last chance to look at me Hector”
T9 Perth with a heal. Not sure I would spend RB points on it though, unless you already have everything else.
I'll be picking her up for sure. Given my options are her, Druid, Vampire II, or Sevastapol, she's easily the most fun out of the bunch, especially given the others have TT counterparts.
I have Ohio, Vampire II, and Colbert. I'll probably be getting this as well, I really enjoy the light cruisers.
Don't downplay how amazing the vampire is either! Imo the best dd hunting dd in game with only a well played smaland or kleber being the only dds I've had any trouble with(and not too often at that).
But I am a light cruiser main and ill definitely be getting this myself. o7
I got the Slava, Ohio, Colbert, sevastapol, Gibraltar, and my favorite is Gibraltar.... Don't listen to people, listen to your feelings, I'm having a blast with Gibraltar even if everyone say it's a crap ship.
This one has a tech tree counterparts too, the pan-asian cruisers
I love her. She will be a great river ferry
Looks good, king size Haida :D detection and firing penalty will/have been nerfed.
Honestly looks pretty cracked. I already have Oh, Colbert and Sieg, guess this one will be next as the others don't really interest me.
I will get her on patch day, because it makes the most sense for me to pick her over the other option (Gibraltar)
1. I do have a 21pt Commonwealth captain and I do like to play the other crawling smoke ships
2. Gibraltar imho offers less in her own tier to me than Hector, due to the fact that there are not a lot of premium cruisers on T9 who aren't of the superheavy kind
3. My backlog of FB ships consist of only Gibraltar and Hector and my stockpile is big enough that I can afford spending it on a fun t9 cruiser and still be back to 60k whenever WG announces whatever t10 ship comes next.
But yeah, if I were a Beginner I wouldn't pick her over Ohio, even if someone isn't too much into BBs.
Considering the price, it may be more interesting then the Emilio.
"yeah man i definitely know what Dido looks like i can totally make you one!!"
I always fight in ships that either have powerful guns or secondary galore
me and my satsuma: hmmm *interesting*
Shed be great for ranked battles I bet. T8/T9
Since smoke, radar and HE is such a strong combo (said it yourself), would you mind revisiting the Belfast 43? Got it from one of the free containers and I think its much better than expected.
my "purple" friend says this ship is heavily relied on your hands, your ability to understand the game and map.
so even though i got it too, i don't think i will be able to play it to the fullest of its capabilities.
Belfast 43 in comparison to Edinburgh does have more going for it. The problem is that the original Belfast also exists, and when you name something the same (with a number) but with a higher tier, you get some pretty big expectations that, in all honesty, B43 was never going to deliver. What Belfast 43 gains over Belfast OG it still loses dimply due to the nerfs to what Belfast did the best and T8 matchmaking (which, granted, is much better now than it was when Belfast 43 released, but it's still not the greatest compared to T7 matchmaking that Belfast OG has).
@@teama4352 Who is your purple friend?
@@burt591 [ERROR] lkik
Looking at RB ships I honestly have to ask what besides Ohio would I take instead? Siegfried maybe? Well I guess... I do like my Agir but Captain's skill reworked nerfed both of those ships heavily and RB ships are some of the most resource intense, grind intense ships in the game. To me this looks like another good option once you've grabbed Ohio...
Ohio ain't that special imho.
She's a sidegrade Montana with an emphasis on pushing/brawling, which isn't exactly "meta" these days. She's slightly slower, has worse DPM, better secondaries (which still only pen superstructures and DD hulls), better rudder, much better turret traverse, faster heals (that heal less), much worse ASW. Is she better than the Monty? Probably, but there are other RB options that are just more fun imho, especially the Colbert.
Salamanca did, salamanca money, salamanca blood! That hacienda i paid for it! and you treat us like dogs! - Hector Salamanca
i gonna buy this ship :)
It's funny that for most players their reference for crawling smoke is Haida or Vamp2, but for PQ it's Perth lol
For me its Perth too, I mean she is the OG Commonwealth ship... she just isn't as broken at t6 as Haida is on t7
I suspect that's because the Perth is also a cruiser.
"Smoke + HE + radar, probably pretty good"
Tell that to the Belfast '43.
I'll never understand why they don't make this a t10 with just better dpm
Just wait....
@@KalenvS T9 is the sweet spot
@@johnbubla1479 umm, why are you replying to me...? Lol
So its a tier 9 perth basicly
idk how i feel about ships like this where it follows the lots of guns high fire % doctrine. These ships is what makes battleships not fun. It makes pushing in all the more harder, especially with torpedos.
Now we need an Achilles…
I see what you did there!
Really looks like a London, but slightly better shells per minute but much worse than the ships you are going to face in X/Super tiers.
Going to get demolished in anything with radar or DD/Sub close enough to spot you due to firing penalty.
Hector will be an instant pick-up for my friends and I. We absolutely love playing multiple Perths in a div thus allowing for near or continuous smoke screen uptime with the coal module. Odds are because of the nonexistence of the spotter plane, the Hector divs will be best played with 1 ship to provide spotting like a DD, SS, or CV. Either way, crawling smoke provides massive div utility and can easily create game winning impact.
oh hello
Crawling smoke,rapid fire guns and high odds of fire,an HE and Smoke and a decent heal
That does sound....a bit strong for T9
sounds like it would be fine as a t10 tbh
Lol nope. It can't spot anything and can't alpha damage. It's not a Smolensk with absurd rate of fire and DD-level armour, and going up against radar ships will be a hard nope. Put all that together and it will be impossible to carry with.
@@waverleyjournalise5757 Light cruiser that is weak against radars and heavier guns
It still is pretty impressive and has it's own set of gimmicks,one being the special crawling smoke which does change things a bit because you are no longer a massive torp magnet
Or just get a Perth, with it's own spotter plane and hydro?
😃
Give it smoke, give it lots of guns, give it okay range and reload, give it HE. Whilst stocks last..... *Laughs in WeeGee*
Thanks for showing, I will stick with the Ohio.
The waffel house has been chosen
seams overnerved
Yamato: Ahh! Hector! It’s been a while was it?
Hector: Aye, you still remember that? You 1 salvoed me
Yamato: No I didn’t *Smiles*
Why does WG tell you to advertise a ship which is not even in it's final state yet?
It's like hey look at this Ferrari, right now it can go up to 320km/h but when you buy it, it's only gonna be able to get to 220km/h
so this is a Tier 9 perth
Crawling smoke for like 2 minutes? Jesus, WTF?!
Don't know why this ship exists when Gibraltar completely covers " RB smoke cruiser with heal" and the soon-to-be-released Brisbane is just straight up better.
its a t9 dido class
makes te DIdo look even worse than it is, i like the look of this Hector
another CL with high skill floor. good luck to those who want to spend their precious RP for her
Yeah, thats what WoWs needs, another Smolensk/Minotaur like ship hiding in smoke and spamming the battlefield. Applause WG, applause applause applause
Slow reload HE Minotaur with better torps.
And a much worse heal: only 10% of citadel damage, compared to 50% on the Mino.
@@landochabod7 dont know details yet. But yep thnks. So far tier X will be interesting. I`m Mino/Edgar player so i may try it. Meta is fucked now. Hybrid bb`s and more HE spammers, subs etc. They ruin classic gameplay. dd`s will be extremely hard to play.
Pass
This ship doesn't need a DPM buff, unlike the Tier VI Dido, you can mount a Reload mod, and with AR on your Captain, you're hitting something in the ballpark of 5.5sec for a light cruiser with 10% fire chance that can fire 12 shells (14 if the target is far enough away) which pretty much guarantee you a fire every two salvos. Not to mention the torps, which allow you to stealth torp. A lot of people are going to look at that 7.5sec reload and pretend like it's going to gimp this ship, when in reality it's going to be another fire starting, DPM monster that has just enough utility added on to slide it into A-tier. Players who will know how to use it, like an oversized DD, are going to have an amazing time with it. I personally love sailing Dalian, and see people who like a similar playstyle as loving Hector.
T9 is just food for the t11 ships nowadays. Until that changes, I am not interested.
Research bureau ship?
I don't bother. Too expensive.
Worse Sejong. Not to mention is a light cruiser so you play on masochistic difficulty already, I mean 34k HP and having a citadel and eating pens from 283+ .Gotta love getting citadeled by some 20km BB while in smoke or simply getting deleted no matter what I do, haha thats you get for playing a dd with a citadel..
you know you can use cover or look around for bb muzzle flashes right
thats more brain power than most of the player base has unfortunately imo
Just picked this up from the RB, gotta say its very underwhelming so far.
Great, more anti-DD ship...
Looks like a fun ship. Sadly its part of the Regrind Bureau and that is of the same game cancer WG put into the game along with Carrier, gambling and Sub. So it has to be boycotted.
The waffle house has found it’s new host
The Waffle house has found its new host.
*Sees T9*
T9 is dogshit tier anyways, thanks to superships ...
Something I notice about your gameplay. You always talk about "helping" your team yet you leave them hanging, a lot, just so you can farm damage. I've seen you get ships close to destroyed and instead of finishing the boat off you switch to another target for farming. That ship you could have destroyed and decided to NOT help your team (so you can farm damage) ends up destroying a team mate of yours. I'm still a noob but for me farming damage is secondary to helping my team by destroying enemy ships.
Had an Indomitable (the carrier known for damage farming) game recently where I came top of the winning team with only 7k damage. Top xp from pretty much just spotting lol (I was going for the spot missions as part of the Dockyard)
The game mechanics are broken. I have played the NC for 2 days and the guns are shit now. German dispersion. Something has changed!
To be fair to the hector, it definitely seems like your teammates subsist on a steady diet of crayons in that showcased match. Some of the worst positioning I've ever seen not in co-op.
