I've seen reviews and watch a lot of videos on youtube depicting how amazing this ship is. If I aim at the waterline, the shells would more than often plunge into the water in front or fly over and miss the ship completely. The guns feel extremely inconsistent at long range and for some reason, it just does not want to hit the citadel even at 6KM range. So I got the North Carolina a few weeks ago and fully modded it. To this day, I am still having trouble landing shots with its high arcing guns. 10-15km is where the NC really shines - ideally with a teammate or two near you that can profit from your AA. Overall, NC is firmly a midrange ship - use your concealment where possible, avoid long-range duels with Amagis (they're more accurate and have better ballistics) and bow-in Richelieus (you arent gonna do much to him as long as he doesnt mess up), avoid brawls with Germans and the upcoming Russians (the former have much better armour + secondaries than you, the latter will be very very accurate at short ranges). It just does not want to hit the citadel even at 6KM range.ĭepends entirely on what you're shooting, really - if you're too close, two "new" things can happen that arent common at longer ranges: Either you overpen a cruiser, meaning the shells dont have sufficient time and resistance to arm before going out the other side (relatively rare with the NC's mediocre velocity), or your shells come in too flat and thus dont manage to hit a submerged citadel (again, NC isnt affected as badly as ships with flatter trajectories, but it does happen quite a bit at minimal ranges).
