It makes your guns even more accurate, which can't be bad. No questions asked. The other thing I see a lot with Iowa players is they tend to back up and not use their speed/maneuverability as an advantage. Now for the captain build! I think FP would serve you well though if you are playing like a sane American BB player. in her, and started doing research on the best builds.When it's time to lay down the "C" Hull and get her speed trails under way  I will def. I should put these all together and post them in one post some day for new or less apt players like myself. The extra deterrence and AA doesn't hurt either! She was the lead ship of her class of battleship and the fourth in the United States Navy to be named in honor of the 29th state. Iowa is a great ship, so enjoy the ride! If you have an Iowa Captain/Module/Upgrades build that you use and don't mind sharing,  I am interested to find out what folks are running so that I can put together a bit of an educated guess at what to run on mine. I build the Iowa just like I do most other BBs: PT, EM, SI, CE, FP, BoS and AR. Always. The historical counterpart of the famed battleship Exposing her flat broadside to enemies is as inadvisable in With the emergence of aircraft carriers and the need to protect them from surface threats, the concept of “fast battleships” came into prominence; ships designed with the speed and the endurance to keep pace with carrier groups and serve as a major deterrent to surface attack.

It was indeed. The last few ships I got, i came to the forums for some help on Captain and modules.

I will say that a concealment build would be a viable choice as well. Keep your AA or just ensure you dont lose your guns. On the Iowa, I used the C Hull, as the previous hulls are just slightly weaker in the AA department, and the rudder shift in the C Hull is faster. It doesnt need more. The ship was designed for escorting attack carrier forces. One thing he did hit dead on is Artillery plotting in slot 6. I took AFT because I was playing secondaries, but it helps in the AA department. Thanks a lot for the input!!! Fifth mod: Concealment. This will be a personal preference slot. I used mine quite a bit in the last ranked season. Sounds like a nice build! Slot 4: You have some choices and they are all viable imo. Running without PT has made me a better player. Also, Iowa is pretty sneaky too. Slot 3 is a tossup like he said. Besides EM, it is one of the only other valid tier 2 BB skills. They rarely will be knocked out when you dont have a DCP on deck. There are a few features of the Iowa that I see players use incorrectly. I also have the legendary mod "improved damage control" in the 5th slot, but I would get concealment mod 2 in its place. Here are a couple of pics of my Montana captains skills, as well as the upgrades I run. Jump to: To log in, select the region where your account is registeredNo boost to continuous damage in a reinforced sector.The enemy is alerted that a bearing has been taken. Basically, use the C Hull. So I guess AA if you dont like planes, but remember your AA is already amazing. AR is a good place to spend your last two skill points. Furthermore, the ship had a greater waterline length-to-beam ratio, making the ship longer than its predecessors, as well as notably faster. I wouldnt really recommend the special american mod here because the Iowa has a ton of range already.

I wouldnt really recommend the special american mod here because the Iowa has a ton of range already. I haven't even had her out into a game yet. Well, there you have it! One of the most powerful battleships of World War II. I run a hardcore brawling build on my Monty.

With the current meta my vote is for aa. Run this on Montana too. Third mod: Personally, I ran secondaries for the LOLz. 2 pointers: EM. Basically, use the C Hull. More so for the decreased cooldown then the extra (though I will never complain about one more repair party.) ( no Yammy though) This World of Warships Iowa armor guide completely breaks down the tier 9 USS Iowa’s armor complete with broadside, bulkhead, and aerial/deck views. Run this on Montana too. It is funny It's ability to survive (Montana even more so) and increased accuracy. Uss Iowa Wow S; Uss Iowa Wow S. Posted by Madeleina Desbois on January 28, 2019. 4 pointers: I ran AFT and CE.
