If you torpwhore right, being an IJN torpwhore is better than being any other national TW (which is why noobs complain about nerfing torps) and if you are a good torpwhore with good torpmen (level 38+) then torpwhoring things is very very easy.
Here is what I did with torpwhore...First I bought lvl 38+ IJN torpmen (because now I can use the M1Mod2 torps), then I leveled my BO from scratch to Kagero and then to Fubuki, put the torpmen on the ship with the BO, and chose a sailor with HIGH (+14 is what I used) potential to remain as a ghost crewmember on my Fubu. I kept torpwhoring until that neutral finally reached level 51 (initially I wanted to change the neutral to CV BO at lvl 46 but I didn't have enough credits so I kept torpwhoring until I could afford the money, which was around level 51), changed him to CV BO, and CV'ed until level 53 and then bought Ryujo. From here on in, your BO would have to train in gunships in order to get experience (or ride a CV) so having high potential helps (it helps in the beginning but now even more so since experience is harder to earn). This is when you really don't need your TW BO unless you choose to go BB route. But if that is the case, mission whore a lot so your gunners and BO have plenty of experts or you wouldn't be able to see where your shells land.
