I wonder, why torpedo hits from torpedo bombers dont count towards any kind of torpedo dailies, its a bug or intended?

Seems to be intended though I couldn't begin to tell you why.

 

A torpedo is a torpedo, if you ask me. Both should count, or else it's the only daily that can only be cleared by 1 class out of 4.

 

Nobody uses torpedoes on Japanese cruisers, don't even try to say otherwise. The angle is so bad using them is a deathwish.

This.

 

As for why, it's way easier to just get hits with torpedo bombers than with ship-launched torpedoes.

*SHIP* torpedo.

 

Plane torpedoes aren't ship torpedoes.

 

Why are there no missions for ship torpedoes? Leaving out dive bombers much?

Okay, fine

 

Only cruiser players who like baring broadside at under 10km use ijn cruiser torpedoes.

one is a premium exception and the other still can't fire forward more than a few degrees if memory serves

 

Either way Surprise Attack and Sniper are only reasonably completed using a destroyer.

you could strategically retreat with torps, it's not like always have your bow pointing towards the enemy.

It seems silly to me to build a cruiser like a destroyer but what do I know, I barely play my atago

Up through tier 4 where they have 6 Km torps they really are just a weapon of opportunity but once you get to the Furataka with 19 Km torps they become useful.

 

:( 10 Km torps, darn tablet.

Furutaka wishes she had 19k  torpedoes. Any cruiser and destroyer wishes for historical type 93s.

Have seen LWM 2 times in ranked joining her Atago with a DD. Quite sneaky way to play this ship. Since a IJN DD spotted ahead of her, giving her enough space for a stealth build Atago to launch the torps and turn away. And if something went wrong the DD could pop smoke.

Didn't those explode on deck due to the shock from a shell explosion?  They're great torps though, I agree with that.  Just need to make sure they're in the water and not on your deck.

They had them in Alpha and were removed for balancing reasons

I would have respected you, until you decided to shove your opinion in everyone's face and state it as fact, that's a political move, you don't do that in public unless you're trying to be hated.

He made us aware of his opinion, but he didn't shove it in someone's face.  "Shoving it" requires a more confrontational word choice.  Like what I'm doing here.

I still maintain that Sniper and Surprise Attack are most reasonably completed using destroyers. Cruiser torpedoes exist but they're far too limited in usefulness when you're trying to finish a daily, if you ask me.

 

But sure whatever if you want to turn this into some stupid political game, you're on.

 

I concede. You win.

 

Forum politics are [edited]stupid.
