I am fitting my Baltimore out to play like I played my NO, using concealment and obstructions to get as close as possible to CAs and DDs and then opening fire with a well aimed AP salvo at an opportune time looking to get crippling damage as quickly as possible. Not that it makes Baltimore any less awful, but it helps. I'm using this same playstyle with Des Moines with a significant degree of success (well, that and invisi fire on occasion). Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes. Spec for concealment and look for soft accessible targets at mid-to-close range. I derped most of my way through Baltimore playing her as an underpowered version of Ibuki until I realized the advantages of camo build for Balti, and my last 10-15 battles with her showed a definite improvement. It seems to play just like a NO either as an escort or a camo build CA and DD hunter just now you have to specialize even harder. It has better penning super heavy AP that deal more damage, with slower shells, it has stronger AA, and frontally is very strong vs other CAs but still has all the weaknesses the NO already had like no torps, meh HE, low ROF, poor performance at range, weak TDS, etc. It has the same strengths and weaknesses as the NO only with weaker weaknesses and stronger strengths. I dont have a lot of experience in the Baltimore yet in the current iteration but it feels like a NO that doubled down on the strengths and weaknesses.
