[NECRO] MementoMori_6030 [NECRO] Players 6,381 posts Report post #6 Posted March 7, 2021 1) Thunderer has a weak torpedo protection. This is not a secret. 2) Of course, there are BB players who always manage to catch every stray torpedo with a part of their ship which is not protected by the torpedo belt (basically because they do not know where this belt is located, that they do have one in the first place, or a unable to use WASD). 3) How can a camper get hit by a torpedo back there? Those 20km torps are not exactly stealthy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And no, not every torp causes flooding, not by a long shot. High tier Japanese torps have the highest chance though. And thunderer doesn't have good torpedo protection - and doesn't need it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, you don't need torpedo protection, you need to develop game sense and team play. Torpedoes already are the least reliable source of damage. The availability of premium damage con and reduced flooding duration further nerfed their potential. Unless you take full sets you should be able to deal with them. This holds true for all players, not just you. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TF] meuhbat Players 317 posts 3,636 battles Report post #12 Posted March 7, 2021 The flood chance is higher if you take a torpedo in the bow or stern = outside of the torpedo protection, only the central part is "protected", but you will be able to repair more damage from the bow and stern sections because those are not citadel.

[-AA-] Brinckie Weekend Tester 159 posts 26,806 battles Report post #13 Posted March 7, 2021 Endured flooding is so hard to do consistently with a dd. Can't remember when i had a liquidator medal, DD medal rework when?, and i play Benham and Somers allot, even in a Shimakaze or a fast torp boat like Halland, Ostergotland or Smalland it's really hard to accomplish consistently. I am glad if i get any torp hits @ all in a dd sometimes, if you happen to end up on the retreating/back line sniping flank your nothing more than a glorified observation post/cap contester @ best. And i'm not even talking about the games which left me with no torp tubes or disabled/reset counter ones since all the Thunderer/Conqueror HE spam wrecking modules. It seems you rarely play DD, my chances of ever getting a flood or a torp hit on you are way slimmer then you hitting me from range. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
