the best way to sink a destroyer

ECAaxel · 04-04-08, 02:44 PM

the only time i have sunk destroyers is in multiplayer usually when we have agreed to keep the homing torpedos reserved for the DDs especially when we have unlimitted torpedos and then only if the DD is attacking another player.
My tactic is wait for the DD to be clear of other ships and point and shoot the homer it will hit eventually .

Sank a whole load of escorting destroyers juast by this tactic before attacking the convoy. This was in GWX2 aswell.

Well done

Use your offensive capabilities to maximum effect

Funny, some like to take them on others stay away.
Me I like to take them every chance I get. In one convoy attack with my IXB I took down 4 dd's and two Flowers, then ate the the convoy.
Overall I thing my best kill count against dd's was 16 in one campaign.
The dd I hate the most is the Hunt class. I will not go after them in rought water.
