Weird in that HE shells from my Amagi (main guns, not secondariers) were able to knock parts off of a Benson but not able to damage it. Has this happened to anyone else out there?

The splash damage can damage/destroy modules, but will not deal any HP damage to the ship itself. If you just slightly miss a shell, i.e. it lands in the water right beside an enemy ship, the splash damage will disable modules, but deal 0 damage, as you didn't actually hit the ship. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
