Default Is it just me, or what? JN ASW skills:

I think I can petition for the 100K club. Just ran out one patrol of 145,739 tons. 3 Fuso, 2 Takado, 1 Mogami, and a pesky merch Haruna that took one for the team.

This was in ONE task force, with (est) 12 DD's in a ring formation around it. It wasn't SIMPLE, mind you, just somewhat hard. The escorts were awake enough to make contact on me, but they seemed more eager to blow holes in the water that me. At one point I had 4 DD's in close, but they never seemed to figure it out. I got chased at least 6 times, with basic evasion I got away.

I even got snarky on the last pass- three got visual on me, I just did a "dive for 300, reverse course at 200, stay down there till they pass" and snuck back under them and took out the damaged Mog and the last Takedo.

Vanilla Install, for what it's worth.

Maybe I'm just used to more aggressive escorts from SH3?

No, the stock AI is indeed a bit retarded.

And as MM stated, yes the AI is ramped up a bit in the TM modpack.
