Possible, if a potato player OR it could have been on cooldown at the time too. Also, I have noticed that even if hydro is on, if you have stopped and happen to be broadside towards incoming torps, it won't really help any - You will always eat one or 2. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh yes, that is always a possibility, and I have done it plenty of times myself..... I try and keep moving in my smoke and be better angled, but even that does not always work out. I only said what I said due to the nature of this specific ship.....I would try and time the hydro with the smoke as I do in the Mino for example. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They rely on others to spot the target(s) for them and since most are quite fragile, suffer tremendously, if forced to act on their own (not saying it is impossible, but it does make things much harder) or operate in the open. I accidentally even citadelled a Smolensk firing from smoke when I blind-shot into the smoke with my DM (he was just out of my radar range and anyway, it was on cooldown). Yeap, recently blindly citadelled a Leander in the smoke. Then someone else landed the torp of grace. Poor fella. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I got lucky and sent the torps when hydro was on cooldown. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wows-stats.com is not property or operated by WarGaming? I don't think there's anything we can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though WG did buy or affiliate themselves with that replay site didn't you? wowsstats.org works still fine, but doesn't offer the same functionality sadly ( I am used to wows numbers so it's easier to track my own regression there ). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
