Most of the bad torpedoes for me are premature detonations due to the magnetic trigger. I have encountered a few duds, but not very often. If I set impact trigger, 3m depth, and have 80-100deg AOB, I assume it must be a dud when the torpedo just clangs off the side of the target. That's an 'oh crap' moment. You didn't score any damage and now the target knows you're there and they're gonna start an evasive pattern. I suppose it might be wiser to fire a salvo of 2 torpedoes to be safe.
