Free XP ships?

[Tommygun]

Am I wrong but are there no ships available for Free XP any longer? When did that happen?

[UnrepentantSinner]

They were removed when Update 12.4 went live, which i think was at the end of May, you can get those that were still available at the time, for coal in the Armory now.

Those would be IX Azuma, X Hayate, IX Ägir, IX Groningen, by the way. Which were the only free xp ships left before said update.

You have to buy everything now. Everything in this game is going to drain either your life, by grinding to get the ships, or your wallet because everything about this game is behind a paywall. Stay casual, and save both

Nearly all the Good ships are free, so you're right-ish

You can still use free XP to buy ships. Only it now takes a few clicks and a small number of games.
Resetting ship lines to access the very good boats in the Research Bureau is how it's done. What you do is reset, free xp the line, reset again, repeat as many times as you want.
You will sacrifice a lot of credits though, and the price in free xp is a lot higher than the old way used to be.

Free XP ships are still in the game but are in the research bureau. Also they cost about 4 mill Free XP now after you have done all the line resets with Free xp.

Bit of an increase over the 750k and 1 mill Free xp they were originally. Must be the inflation that WG keep talking about. That they are the cause of BTW.

And yet the ships in question are available for coal. Which you get for free. And unless you start using the good boosters, you'll likely earn the coal for them faster than you did the free xp before. Definitely the case for Hayate.
So your argument makes no sense whatsoever in this context. And "everything about this game is behind a paywall" is a straight out lie.

Complain about WG's pricing strategies all you want, there's ample reason for it. But at least stick to the truth. There's more than enough of that going around to make use of.

Yes, Wargaming are the ones who have printed more US dollars in the past 2 years that had been printed in the entire 200 years prior to that point. Or are you just another Russophobe ignorant of the fact that Wargaming severed all ties with the country about a year ago?

He might just mean an inflation of prices in the Armoury and Premium Shop.

Though considering that he seems to think the research bureau ships were at the same price than the tech tree free xp ships, at least that's how his text reads, I am honestly not sure.

And I could add that I already have one RB ship, am about a third to my second. And I have yet to reset a single line. That's just from what I got playing the game without earning any points through resets.
