![]() ![]() ![]() USN 203 mm AP will start to ricochet at 60 degrees and are guaranteed to ricochet at 67.5 degrees. Otherwise, shell shatters on the armor.įor calculating whether an AP shell bounces, AP shells (other than USN 203 mm AP and UK 152 mm AP minus the Belfast and Perth) will start to ricochet at 45 degrees impact angle and are guaranteed to ricochet at 60 degrees. If penetration of AP shell is greater than effective armor, then shell penetrates and does either penetrating damage or citadel damage depending on location of impact. If not, take the impact angle (example: 45 degrees) and subtract the normalization value (example: 5 degrees) to determine the normalized impact angle (40 degrees)Ĭalculate the effective armor at the normalized impact angle (40 degrees) If not, Does the shell Bounce off the Armor? (This will be explained below) The basic process process for determining damage from an AP is the following (assuming no over-penetration):ĭoes the shell overmatch the Armor? (Is the shell diameter >14.3 times the thickness of the impacted armor?) Auto-Bounce is also referred to as Auto-ricochet. A couple of patches ago, normalization was reworked so that it corresponds to the shell caliber, and is not specified to each ship.Īuto-Bounce is not normalization. ![]()
