at medium to long distance they are somewhat fixed (> 7 km) at close range there's still something wrong as I still can't get a decent hit when my AP shells hit the water first and the underwater hull of the ship second ; I used to get a lot of damage this way but now it almost never hits (or it's an overpen)

They should buff short range accuracy. I've started the US BBs and the SC is just plainly awful at short range. At a distance of 4-6 km the guns are just useless. Ridiculous high dispersion and laughable low accuracy.

South Carolina is utterly useless battleship. The short range accuracy is non existent. A Phoenix came behind an island, broadside, at about 6km, I was able to fire two full salvos (each 8 AP rounds), only 1 (!!!!) round hit and it was an overpen (and I was aiming and leading good.. the dispersion on these guns is just [edited]awful). And this is not the first time this happened, nearly every round I've played in this floating pile of garbage I had the same problem. At a distance of 4-6 km these guns are [edited]horrible. The dispersion is so huge an entire fleet could fit between.

I used to aim at the waterline (at medium/close range) against CL/CAs, so the AP round would hit the water first, arm and then penetrate the armor and explode (so it wouldn't overpenetrate). This was very useful to get citadels at close range vs CL/CAs; while now they just overpenetrate or don't do any damage at all. At close range I simply cannot get citadel hits anymore in my BB (in a CL/CA I can still get them.. got 11 in one round yesterday). At long range I can still get some citadel hits but less than before. It also seems to overpenetrate more than it used to (i.e. 10% dmg). And DesmoASD is right, because AP rounds are so ineffective now I'm using more HE in my BB.. Which now effectively results in more damage done per salvo than if I were to use AP (especially with burn damage). So yes, I also understand why I am on fire more and why more ships are spamming HE. I just think it was better as it was before the patch...

Most of the time I'm actually playing the 3-1-1 configuration on the Ryujo. Except when I have the "first win of the day bonus", then I'll play the 1-2-2. Happened to me in my Farragut a week ago

I just feel to be burning more than I used to. Also about the AP rounds, at close range they just don't seem to hit the citadel anymore.

spend free XP on the first hull upgrade

what bothers me most about the Fuso is the (none-existing) accuracy of its main batteries and the utter pile of crap the stock Fuso is

indeed, I'm just playing my DDs now (or low tier fast CAs) BBs is just ... burning all round

so I got rushed by a DD in my Fuso today .. it turned broadside at about 4 km (when it had only 2k health left) ; I fired a full salvo (12 rounds), the dispersion was so horrible only 2 shells hit, only doing 1k dmg and knocking out a gun turret. I turned away as he would've fired torps (which he did and I dodged them). While retreating I fired my rear guns on him (he was still broadside), no hit. I turned in to fire to 4 other turrets, only 1 hit, knocking out a gun turret (no dmg). His second salvo of torps destroyed me. Please tell me how it possible that these guns have SUCH HORRIBLE ACCURACY at close range.

> they're more accurate no; imo Fuso's guns are the most inaccurate I've met so far

the stock Fuso is so bad it made me laugh

6x2 barrels is nice but the dispersion / accuracy is horrible. When I shoot at a ship 4 km away I expect to hit at least half of the rounds and not only 1 or 2.
