I don't have dud torp whenever I do this.
Same here.

I'm new to manual targeting so this is about all I can manage right now.


If it's farther than say 2000m, or the AOB is more than 15 degrees away from 90, my hit ratio drops to like 1 in 3 I'd wager.


I now see the value in wide salvos for tougher shots. Before I could never bring myself to fire knowing one or two torps had to miss. But sometimes it's the best play.
