Same for me, I liked kawachi a lot, but that cannot be said for myogi. She got really good range on her tier, but its no use, over 12 km perfectly aimed shots splash all around enemy ship... And biggest drawback is that she is undergunned, only 6 guns is laughable armanent when compared to wyomings 12.

when you divide: dispersion/range you get dispersion on 1 km as I did in my post, this shouldnt be too hard to imagine (lower numbers are better) when you divide: range/dispersion you get range per 1 dispersion meter, which is quite... impractical and quite confusing to comprehend for most people (higher numbers are better) dispersion/range=dispersion on 1 km example for kongo: 223m/19.3km=11.55m 11.55 is value of max dispersion on 1km, which means: when you are shooting at target 1 km away, your shell can only go 11.55m left, right, up or down from point you are aiming at. So lower number, higher accuracy.

I think that it is much easier to comprehend when you divide dispersion with max range range. Then you get dispersion/1 km which means when firing at 1 km, your shells can travel only that much off the point you are aiming at. Stock Kongo: 223/19.3= 11.55 max dispersion on 1 km Upgraded Kongo: 237/21.2= 11.18 max dispersion on 1 km So yeah, on max range it gets a bit less accurate as range prolonges 2 km, but in general accuracy improves. Hope I helped a bit edit: too slow

Yup thats right, I compared their accuracy on same range. That means in close combat Kongos guns are more precise. Added range is just bonus, you dont have to (or maybe shouldnt?) stay on max range and shoot from 20 km away, because from that distance you will hit nothing

Nice post! But regarding the accuracy in comparison with kongo, your statement is common mistake. By logic you stated, t10 BBs should be less accurate with max dispersion around 300 and t3 BBs should be most accurate BBs with max disp. around 150, but it is quite other way around. Let me explain: It is MAXIMAL dispersion, which means it is dispersion on maximal possible range (you can check this when you upgrade fire control, max. dispersion will increase appropriately to range change). Lets look, New York got in stock 14.2 range and 202 dispersion. Kongo got 19.3 range and 223 dispersion. So it is true that Kongo is less accurate on max range. But lets look at unit which can be used to calculate accuracy with max range differneces in mind. Lets use Dispersion / 1 km (maximal dispersion / firing range) and then it looks like this: New york: 202/14.2= 14.2 max dispersion on 1 km Kongo: 223/19.3= 11.5 max dispersion on 1 km That means: when shooting at ship 1 km away, your shots will disperse 14.2m and 11.5m respectively. So, when both shooting at New Yorks max range, New York got its max dispersion which is 202, but Kongo should have something around 164. Which means Kongo is far more accurate then New York, not the opposite. Hope it helped and good hunting captains! PS: I know it is more complicated then my calculation and they are far from exact, as shell trajectory is not linear but parabolic. Nevermind, I suppose that as example it is sufficient.
