Torpedo EXP wasn't nerfed. The way it is factored into personal or team experience has been changed.

Also, what have these 'dinosaur' BB drivers received again? PHHs have the range of regular HHs which have the range of a 6" cruiser. PHH were already set for the game, the sprite had existed before subs were introduced. That was your only argument.

Now allow me to retort; the sub experience is roughly HALF of that of a BB. I am currently leveling my sub crew and a BB3 crew on an EBB3. Both are level 85-89 and the sub get ~22,000 EXP for a win with ~100,000 attack and the EBB3 gets ~40,000-45,000 EXP for the same attack.

Now, if that was all, please back up your claims for now on.

I'm pretty sure both falcon and monarch been here a lot longer than you, besides, the time argument is pointless, considering half of the still active player base have played since 2004-6, and have seen almost all of the major changes this game has had.

HH and PHH are considered 7.2" guns, they have around USN 6" range and travel about halve the speed of normal shells, leaving plenty of time to dodge them outside of being 6"s from the ship firing them. Try playing zoomed out. They are noticeably slower shells.


As stated, the HH sprite was made before the SS1 sprites.

Torp EXP was changed from Personal to Shared EXP when GBIIs were reintroduced. When they revived GBIs, they transferred the Shared EXP for Torps over, Shared EXP is lower than Personal in most cases. HH and DCs also use torp EXP and lower the EXP earned by players using them. Including BBs using them. Also TBs using the same torp exp. Shared Torp EXP effects all classes and tiers, not just subs.


When hunting ships when using torp weapons, aim for faster ships, the ships doing less than speed-cap that are BB3+ tend to have large amounts of bulge, most CVs carry large amounts as well.

I'm sorry to say, but I think sir, you are misinformed.

As a BB player i have not had anything given to me that I have wanted in regards to SS and SS ballance. HH did not help solve any of the underlying ballance issues.

It sounds to me like you are just trying to get your ship buffed so that it is supper easy to kill 3-6 BB on every attack run like when subs first came out.

I have no intention of saying that HH is well done at this point. But frankly until other things like speed of SS, air time of SS, torp dmg of SS, Torp and PHH splash dmg, and PHH dmg is looked at as a whole you will have to live with it. Just like the BB's have to live with 40knot subs that can outrun us and 1 shot us. Oh did I forget to mention the ammount of dmg a SS can take from BB shells on surface of water ... how did i forget that one.

So from what i can see you have only 1 issue that only helps the SS players. Hmm this BB player (not true i play all ships) wants to ballance all the porblems so that its not an auto win for any of the ships.

Its just kinda funny that you think the BB's got what they wanted.

Btw exp is based on ships you play and it is a shame you get less then a BB but well... so does everything else in the game. Frankly I don't care that much about the exp anyway so you can have that one. Shame it takes longer and you actualy have to learn your ship... wait, if your a old player you should know learning a ship isn't a bad thing.

one final thing, xxStrahdxx you should know better then calling people like monarch new players it uh ... how can i put this.....

If you want to get technical, BBs & ASW recieved a weapon to strike a sub at two to three times the subs torp range.

Subs had their ability to be rewarded for a good game removed: they get the base basic XP if they do well or poorly, which does not encourage sub players to do anything in a game.

I'd love to know how you're getting 22k xp for 100k attack in a GB1. Oh, that's right, you're using a prem account. Without that, you get 10k to 12k for that. Oh, and don't forget the XP penalty you get for the variance in levels between your ship and your crew. Being 5 levels away from the IJN SS5 my XP per 150k attack has dropped to 19k at best, more typically slightly lower. Since I'm not playing my BBs right now, I have to go by games my fleetmates post up, and they're getting in the range of 50 to 60k XP per 80 - 100k attack or so (those are both averages, so take them with a grain of salt).

As a guy that drives a sub, all we're really asking for is to be rewarded for a good game. Is that so much to ask for?

So you say that I can feel differently on my subs than feeling like a martyr? NO WAY!

Well after grinding though the km bb lines till bb5 and getting my km ss4, IMO there's a sorta stable balance in the game now between bbs and ss's,

Comparison between bbs and ss ONLY

(+ve pointsfor bbs)
More exp gain
access to anti ss weapons
Faster Rate of leveling
Access to scouts

(-ve point for bbs)
Forever on the surface & unable to submerge
Forever Vulnerable to DBs ( can be countered)
Limited Bulge if you're following guides ( max bulge until speed is lowered)
Even with 255 bulge it would not hold up well against ss torps


(+ve Points for ss's)
Able to submerge
High torp damage (in most cases)
Able to defend against anti ss weapons ( roughly 50% of the time against phh and hh)
Able to reach enemy BB lines and (depending on playstyle)

(-ve Points for ss's)
Less Exp Gain
Slower Leveling Rate
No access to scouts ( with the exception of IJN SS5 but then again its has a massive speed nerf )
When forced to surface its pretty much the end unless they enemy is incompetent.
PHHs HURT ALOT
Almost all ships have access to anti SS weapons ( HHs and Dcs)
Limited Air Supply and Critical Dive times ( until your DP gives way)

-And although it kinda irks me that the exp gain is lower than compared to in a bb doing the same damage i've grown used to it and accepted it as a trade off for the positive points of playing SSes


Well the above might sound crude and to some, might be utter bull in your opinions. But i'd say it is balanced at this point. Any further tweeking to exp rates and the subtile balance might be. Screwed

-Note If you have any disagreements to the above mentioned please do not hesitate to clarify and mention.

Have a good Day

Err I said it was a rough ratio...Premium gives a straight 40% + 1000 EXP... so the ratio would still hold mostly true. ~22,0000 : ~43,000 or ~15,000 : ~30,000 are both, roughly, the same ratio. That being said if a BB5-6 gets more attack than 100K attack, of course the ratio will get bigger.

Sub and Carrier EXP is based off of Team Attack with a bonus for winning. So, if it makes you feel better, the same advice they get is 'play to win'.

Or just level your SS crew on a PBB or EBB.

But then you are going to have to get your attack in rooms filled with BB5s and BB6s, CVs and enemy subs. All of which can mostly be ignored when you are in a sub.
