You overall want to go back to tier 5 (or even lower) and learn to play before playing anything higher

@G_Bg_82 may I draw your interest on this new thread from our beloved TO?

Oh... I have been in that battle too. I am already dead at this point.

 

Once more (three times the charm), @USS_Malevolence:

The NC is a good ship. You simply have no idea how to play it. With this account or your other one with supposedly 4k battles. If you are surprised by 20k+ damage torps I assume that your former account never reached the high tier gameplay despite all its battles. Please take a look at the IJN DD tree and what their torps are able to dish out. It might teach you how important it is to learn to avoid them.

This time there is no rule violation in it, so I see no reason to call in a moderator.

IJN torps need a nerf? Apart from damage, they already are among the worst non-Russian ones.

He didn`t say IJN torps, but considering the screenshot I can only assume he got himself some Shima torps.

And since the NC isn`t that well know for its torpedobelt, she dies rather quick to torps.

Not a lot of nations can delete a BB with 3 torps. Doubt even Shima can kill a full health NC with 3 on the belt, but these are the ones where it is most likely that they killed OP in good health.

Well we don`t know how much healt he had left tho. Maybe he even detonated without realizing it.

NC's torp belt gives a 19% reduction, so three from a Shima, Yuu or Asashio might be enough, especially if there's pre-existing damage from other sources.

Malevolence - you might want to consider the following:

1) Sail like you're drunk.  No, seriously.  A semi-random course with frequent course and speed changes - nothing dramatic, just the occasional run at 3/4 power and course changes of about 10-15 degrees - makes you much harder to predict.  That forces destroyer captains to close the range (if they weren't redlining it already to get tight torpedo spreads) and brings us on to - 

2) Make friends with allied cruisers.  Especially the American and Russian lines, because those guys have radar and there's very little that beats the threat of radar to make a destroyer captain back off and look for easier prey.  Aim to stay...oh about 5km from the cruisers.  They'll keep the little ships off your back, you can provide the big guns and heavy armour they need to deal with bigger ships and overlapped flak bubbles tend to make CV bombers very, very miserable.  And dead.

lemme see ... what was it that Jingles always said in his videos .... DON'T SAIL IN STRAIGHT LINES ....
