im just wondering if anyone else is getting the same issue as me

Ever since i had Pallada and now ive got Rurik

i havent even been able to see my shells land.
shooting north i can see where they land, can spot the shells land 4-5" inches
passed the end of my guildlines. shooting east-west [vice-versa] i lose them around
angle 33 out of 40.

my BO has 60 Vets, 180 experts, rest rookies [Elite]
i have 2 [elite acc] gunners 80 vets, around 200 experts, rest rookies

i am only lvl 46. other nations i dont have this problem till i reach bb1, is it just my
setup ?

am using 2x10" guns on the Rurik seeing as i play in GB [ only way i can get some
attack otherwise ill be leaching which is boring sitting there for 5mins doing nothing ]

I have a BO with +14 base. max experts, 60 vets and its boosted. level 71.
I still cant see my shells land when I slingshot in sevas.

so its not that bad.
I would say. just get yourself a +15 potential BO. boost it. max expert it. and give it
some vets. that should do the trick. when the lines get too long, get rid of your rookies
(if you have rookies). they are just a waste of space anyway. If the lines are still to
long just burn some experts.

easy

Do yourself a favor and don't boost your BO, its a waste after you need to start
trimming his guidelines at like level 85-95.

Vets and experts wouldn't be a bad idea though.

Buffing spotting shells will require a FCS adjustment, and since I think only 1 person in
NFNA knows the formula for the FCS-guide line length relation, I doubt that it will be
changed.

i survived just fine, and it helps you learn the angles

early soviet ships dd/cl/ca have pretty much range if you use light shells.. even with +15
bo boosted cant spot shells... that was the reason... it has 60 vets and around 300
exps..

and dont expect a tashkent user to have bo with extreme vets inside... that guy has a
point... the bo in the beginning is insufficient for sn

actually this makes soviet range in early game somehow a bit useless... or not very
effective

Your BO sux (only now), if u have some dollars, make him premium and get 100 vets/
rest exp and problem solved... I,had same problem, when i had CA. But later u must trim
ur BO. So, if u r rich, spend some $$$

It's the same for every nation. At first (FF --> DD) the thing is okay. You spot all/most
shells. Then it's the CL--->BB3 basin where you fail to see all/most shells. After that,
during the BB3--->BB4 phase, the BO's lines grow back to "normal", allowing you to
spot all/most shells. And finally the lines grow so insanely long you wish you could kill
some vets to shorten them.

Perfectly normal, pal. Learn to shoot over your visual range. Practice in the "Retired BB"
scenario.

it could be
A. your BO sucks and needs more vets/experts/lvls
or
B. (the more likely option) our testers and testing leaders suck and are making soviets
way too OP in the range department
