[FLAN] BlitzkreigDeutschland Players 1 post 2,129 battles Report post #1 Posted May 11, 2017 I have a Yugumo with F3 Torps (76 knots). If I add the Aiming systems modification 1 I will get 20% extra torp traverse speed. If my math is correct, an extra 20% makes it at 91 knots. Can this be correct? It sounds unreasonably high! And also, what would the highest torpedo speed in the game be with all the modifications and command perks added together? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[KLUNJ] bushwacker001 [KLUNJ] Players 2,870 posts Report post #5 Posted May 11, 2017 If you fire your torps, say, from the port side and then turn your ship hard to starboard and hit full speed, your torps will reach well over 100 knots away from your ship. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BLOBS] Spellfire40 Beta Tester 5,330 posts 13,776 battles Report post #6 Posted May 11, 2017 No module increases the speed of torps only reload(gets reduced ). The only skill is Torp Acelleration as some allready mentioned gives 5 kn at the cost of range. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azalgor Beta Tester 1,046 posts 20,418 battles Report post #7 Posted May 11, 2017 And i often wonder, how do BOTS on my team manage to survive the daily chores without getting killed by a toilet seat... Now i see, they cant even read, nor even as a person with some common sence,''...torpedo tubes traverce speed...'', altering what they just read and then asking how fast will my torpedoes go if i install this, asking something you didnt even read correctly shows how mature and uneducated WG playerbase is. What makes me sad, is that WG tends to listen to them and alters the game to please them. Pretty much the same if you drink a pill from a headache, you ask how big will your d*ck grow?

Aiming Systems Modification 1 - +20% to torpedo tubes traverse speed. Although it is possible to traverse a lake in this case it means 'rotate horizontally'.

Cosseria Players 1,064 posts 4,944 battles Report post #9 Posted May 11, 2017 OP, as it has been said, the ASM1 module won't provide any real advantage to your ship; I suggest you install the Target Acquisition System Modification 1 instead, which gives you +50 percent gunnery accuracy (that's what "range of assured acquisition" really means), and the Secondary Battery Modification 3 which shaves 20% off your guns loading time (as the main battery is, on an IJN destroyer, the torpedo battery). Then you may engage Russian destroyers at will, expecially Tashkents and Khabarovsks played by forumites: we're granted to run scared now that we know you've got such a deadly gunnery setup on you ship Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[LEGIO] darkstar73 Players 648 posts 10,329 battles Report post #12 Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) Hello mate. You get 81knots torpedoes with arange of 6.4km. Have tried them a few times on the Shimakaze. Hillarious to see. But very hard to use. Great for anti destroyer duty Use your Mod2 torpedoes instead, you´ll get 71kn fishes with a range of 8km with torpedo acceleration. Much better IMO. Fastest torpedoes are those 81knot torpedoes Edited May 11, 2017 by darkstar73 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only skill is Torp Acelleration as some allready mentioned gives 5 kn at the cost of range. He's talking about Aiming system modification 1. +20% torpedo tubes traverse speed.

[V888] Shagulon Beta Tester 413 posts 32,694 battles Report post #20 Posted May 11, 2017 To be fair traverse speed isn't 100% clear, it would be better if it were rotation speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[SCRUB] Aotearas Players 8,460 posts 13,076 battles Report post #21 Posted May 11, 2017 To be fair traverse speed isn't 100% clear, it would be better if it were rotation speed. Eh, it says torpedo tubes traverse speed. For anyone who knows what a torpedo tube is the meaning is obvious, though I suppose non-native speakers who aren't quite up to par on those terms can misinterprete. In that regard well done to the OP for asking if he's actually correct or not, he's on the right course to learning the game. Keep asking if stuff is unclear or if you want tips! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tenacious_torps ∞ Players 1,373 posts Report post #22 Posted May 12, 2017 Come to think of it... has anybody run the numbers on the highest possible torpedo dpm over the course of a game? Not taking into account range of speed, stealth or not, just the raw damage output possible with some optimized builds? Given WGs idea of balancing launchers I suspect there could be some surprises, but I'm way too lazy to actually calculate this. So... surely somebody has already done that, yes?

[BLOBS] Spellfire40 Beta Tester 5,330 posts 13,776 battles Report post #23 Posted May 12, 2017 If you include flooding potential probably the T 2 about 16 sek ones. Pure dps probably one of the low tir RU or USS Or perhaps a shima at 1% with relevant skills? Hard to gues on the fly thogh. Not that it really matter on paper Shima is a monster Torp DD in reality even a Fletcher and Z46 are much better ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
