B Tier

The Submarine-mounted Mark 16 Torpedo is a transitional equipment option until players can get A or S tier torpedoes. Players can obtain it by defeating boss nodes in X-5 maps (Anti-Submarine Warfare), Supply Line Disruption, or 13-4. The Submarine-mounted Type 95 Oxygen Torpedo is another transitional option, obtainable by defeating boss nodes in X-5 maps.

C Tier

The Submarine-mounted Mark 12 Torpedo is a good stat option but is crafted from the same source material as the Bidder. The Submarine-mounted Type 95 Kai Pure Oxygen Torpedo is costly and uses up many resources, making it the least favorable option.

Overall, the Submarine-mounted Mark 20S “Bidder” Torpedo is the best option, but it is hard to craft in research. If players cannot obtain the Bidder, they should stick with the G7e, which has blueprints that can be found in research or daily. The other torpedoes are usable but not optimal and resource-intensive to craft, especially the tier B and C ones. Players can use the purple versions of these torpedoes as transitional weapons.
