Seems like the “well it’s a heavy tank so I frontline” mindset
Use it as a medium killer and support tank
@indigo knot Don't be so quick to judge. Many people don't use the tanks as they should be used. That's why we jumpto the conclusion that certain tanks are bad.
Well it doesn't have that good dpm and most use calibrated shells on it
@quick lichen Maybe. Then again, I pick up a few things from the videos on YouTube.
It has good dpm and it’s pen wasn’t an issue
It’s a German gun so it shoots where you aim. Don’t be afraid to aim
@indigo knot Play it like a panther 2 but bigger and heavier. It doesn't have good armour but is mobile enough to get to flanks. However late you are, you can get damage in.
Will Vk 100.01p be OP ? or good?
Pretty op in WoT
I’m going to love the 128 mm I think
Like the maus it’s weak on the sides
Lol. Explain Russian light line.
Germans are never OP, because all russian mediums on Tier 8 plus are already OP execpt T-44
So many mobile tier 8s
But in right hands?
Very good
Not op
Armor from the front would be nearly impenetrable except a hatch you can’t hide
@narrow terrace T44 is workable and very good in the right hands. It's flexible i armour and mobility. Gun is pretty good too.
T54 Mod.1 = Good mobility and frontal armor like a heavy tank and there no weakspots which you can hit
Actually have tiny cupolas and lfp can be penetrated easily enough if it’s not moving too much
T54mod1 is a 1vs1 monster. Nothing to win against this tank!
@limpid elmYaa I played it like a slow medium but truth be told I didn't like this tank ...gun depression was also one of the issue I felt
Heavy tanks and TDs can beat it down @narrow terrace
@indigo knot Then play the panther. It has the same gun depression angle.
@limpid elm played that one too...loved it
Yes but Light tanks not 😦 not even with 250mm pen on HEAT Because HEAT just succs
Panther 2 needs a buff
Cupola will be nasty, but the turret cheeks are small on Vk
@narrow terrace my bet is on Indien panzer... ignore spelling
@indigo knot Hmm...
@modest prairie Panther 2 is workable. Just not very flexible in many situations. It's huge and has ok DPM.
@limpid elm yeah needs a buff it can't compete with 0 armour and low dmp in comparison to the other meds
@narrow terrace add cent1 to the list too
@modest prairie A buff to what?
what bet?
Dpm and speed @limpid elm
These two can beat mod1 1v1
@modest prairie That's it?
Buffing Panther II's dpm will make it quite broken
yes indien panzer has enough pen i think
@little crest nrly it's still massive with no armour
Still slow and has not enough dmp
I like how in this chat room, Black Prince is hardly ever mentioned. 🤔
I think panter 2 is quite good and can bully Russian meds which have low pen gun
@limpid elm I love the BP my WR is 64% with 500 battles
@limpid elm everyone mostly play tier8 and at tier 8 even hellsing and drac are balanced out
@indigo knot what about when they face tier 6?
@modest prairie Eh, don't ya mean tier 9?
Hey now I am getting used to tiger 2
HURRAY
@limpid elm the drac and helsing
@ember thunder And how is the tank? As bad as you had expected?
A little better
"not enough dpm" @modest prairie
Cent 1 has less dpm than panther2😮
@little crest what about armour?
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
It is fine
Indien panzer is such an underrated tank...no one mentioned it😢
@indigo knot Feels bad man. Just like the VK30.02M.
who needs armor when you get penned?
@limpid elm yaa that one good too ....awesome gun and dmp....and vk3001p is an awesome tank too
@little crest If you are talking about mediums, fair point.
@indigo knot has 23 mm more pen
I love the Indian Panzer, on paper it is just an average medium but the package is very good.
Make Panther II faster and it will make sense for E50 fat ram ranch line
Yes Panther II is to slow
i think ru251 needs a mobility buff too slow
Nerf the GC ???
There are some serious problem with you...
Yeah. The GC is highly immobile and the armor and gun is what make up for the horrid mobility. You want them to be nerfed?
Armor? Hast thou been inhaling the serum of the degenerate?
Nerf bp ('-')
Gc has armor??
yeah it actually has 130mm on the front
But its completely flat, so...
@burnt lava so when you angle it is becomes slightly decent
And the gun is godly @burnt lava
*Slightly decent. Players with any intelligence will just cod you
Yeah, the gun is great, its one of the guns on the AT15, tier 8 British td
@burnt lava it has decent traverse and it's very long so not as easy as you would think, you also should never play it out in the open, you should play it near cover, also stopping cod
Yeah, well tbh I haven't played it yet, I've just heard that its really bad. Seen some gameplay as well
People think it's really bad because it takes so much XP to get the top gun and it's horrible when it's stock but after then I love it, that's why I free xpd the guns. And if you have the at15 gun then you save 20000 or so xp
I'm just hoping that I can grind to it before the update
What are you on now?
Its still flat, it stops nothing
literally has the raw armor to just eat shells from tier 5 tanks
@gentle gorge I'm halfway through the Matilda
@jovial kernel @unique scaffold I do get bounces occasionally
don't need to bounce then the sheer thickness of the plate is more than their penetration lol
Why is the caevron so bad
coz BP has more dpm a tier lower
Before buff Caern was still obviously better but now that BP did Caern also needs a buff
Caernarvon has dpm penetration mobility and armor, it's not bad just not as good
Dpm lol y not pick medium, pen lol no, mobility lol soviets mucho fast, armor lol y is that a thing
The upper plate is pretty strong and so is the turret for the most part, it has 2600 dpm, it's mobile among heavy tanks, and the penetration beats every tier 8 medium other than the cent 1
why is the M4 49 the only good french premium
@jovial kernel cdc, amx fcm. Two great premiums
eh they're okay
coz WG doesnt want players to play high skill medum or lights or autoloaders and wants eveyrone to play heavies
@jovial kernel m4 49 is like tiger 2
Why does the type 61 feel like it has the same camo values as a MAUS ??????
cause it doesn't have russian bias
AMX 12t needs improvements imo. It has terrible depression angles, terrible accuracy and gun stabilization
it will not help you how to remove tanks because noobs will not learn so, so how to remove tanks will not solve the problem with new players who can not play it I would leave as it was in patch 5.4 when it comes to tanks
@random anvil amx 12t is so good tank!!!!!! I will screenshoot my wr..so you will see
@random anvil just look!! One of the greatest tier 6!!!
Yeah but that doesn’t remove it’s bad sides I mentioned
It sucks
Oigan alguien de aqui abla español
Only skill you need!
Ik. But I want more comfort
@shut roost. Spamming the same thing in multiple channels isn't going to change anything. It's just annoying.
Warning logged for Damian Bychu Bystrzycki#4838. They were not warned.
12 is a good tank
@random anvil 12 t has bad gun depression because it is French and has an oscillating turret, it also doesn't have terrible accuracy and gun stabilisation, wait till you reach the 13 75, to me that felt worse other than dpm
I’m not gonna play on 13 75
Gonna jump to tier VIII with free exp @gentle gorge
The only tank I want from that branch is BC25t and I want it ASAP
nerf the drac
im sure it wont get nerfed
@random anvil dude I just got rid of 13 90. It really makes you cancer. But 13 75 is a bit more better than 13 90. I recommend you to play on 13 75 and skip 13 90 to tier IX
🤔
@random anvil play all tanks amx!! Dont jump tree!! All tanks are good!!
Nice! 😄 @copper heath rip my amx 12 stats though
Yeah especially 12t. Don’t make me laugh @copper heath
@quick lichen @toxic tapir Maybe you should look at this nick.
Already did
So where is the punishment? Insult + sexual content.
If its handled why he still has same nick?
AMINA-KOYAM#7990 was muted
The AMX 12t is good, the AMX 13 75 is almost the same tank, 1 tier higher
13 75 has almost the same stats as the 12t, but much worse depression/elevation
1375 is just a bad tank
Any tank can be good if you use it correctly
I have used it correctly bit it usually underperforms when compared to other tier 7 lights
dude, the 13 75 is an excellent tank
laughs in Type 62
Never played it, and never will
Type 62 is op for a light
Yes
HEAT pen
Fire rate & DPM
HP + manœuverability
HEAT spamming Type 62s arent fun
Unless they hit your tracks
Or spaced armor
HE should get like 5 extra pen for tier V - X
laughs in kv2
cries in leopard
@solar flicker HE doesn’t need more pen. People just need to learn how to aim
HE should have more pen than AP
Yeahhhh nope
BT-7 Arty gotta wipe its brow
Wondering how the BT-7 Art is gonna be after 5.5
agreed
BT-7 art remains basically untouched in 5.5 according to the test server, only alpha on the AP that no one uses and HE module damage get nerfed
@copper heath ko te sta pito
Rip BT-7 Art.
dude the BT-7 art is basically untouched because the only things that change are you can't ammo rack with HE anymore and the AP gets an alpha nerf
Thats the WG doing the job correctly 😀
@jovial kernel u do know the module dmg nerf might be quite significant, meaning ur less likely to dmg modules as often as u wud previously
so basically its currently just hp dmg were looking at. rarely be seeing engine dmg, ammo dmg or even ammorekt moments from tht tank
@unique scaffold moram malo ljudima srat. Steta kaj se ne mogu tu svađati..da me ne banaju 😂 😂 😂 😂
Ahaahhah
Needs nerf asap
sry mate ur results alone aint gonna convince wg to nerf XD
how do you not suck at the game plz thanks
he got dem skillz @jovial kernel 😎
@unique scaffold vidi ovog busha..misli da cim ima wr malo bolji odmah treba nerfat tenka..bas je egoisticno govno hahahah
Stavi ti stats tigera P pa napisi da treba buff 😂 😂
@copper heath this is the English server.
@unique scaffold i kaj sad?? Mozda ne znam engleski. A tebi bi bilo vrijeme da naucis konacno hrvatski jer neces nikad u zivotu napredovati, a ni zajednica oko tebe nazalost... 😕
That isn't English.
@unique fulcrum the Foch is most definitely very strong, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was nerfed eventually
@scenic gate it is godly
Its an SU122 On roids LOL can out turn meds, goes fast dpm, pen
Put the extended consumables equipment on it, pop adrenaline for 20 seconds and rip anyone
@scenic gate i go unlock that slot...
I forgot about that... here I come 2800 avg dmg
Yeah it’s nice, got me to 3k
Showoff's
#502009251787440139 thumbsup /thumbsdown
@copper heath ahahahaha koja budala misli da moze protiv yoko onoa 😂😂
@unique scaffold @copper heath English only please.
I've mentioned this before but I think the Bulldog is the hidden gem of tier VII and perhaps just a smidge OP.
2,5k dpm and mobility, i love the bulldog
I disagree
And a laser of a gun when you run the single shot. That thing lands shots on the move like nobody's business. If you can stay alive towards the end game it is a game changing tank. I killed three low health tanks just as fast as I could reload this AM. Raced into their group, boom, boom, boom, and that's game.
I ♥️ the Bulldog
Definitely the best of the tier VII tech tree lights.
Bulldog is amazing. It's like if the Americans got a Maybach engine
The M41 Bulldog has such low damage though which I think is ridiculous for a tier VII light tank, in my opinion it should have a 200 alpha instead of a 150 alpha. Comparing it to all other tier VII light tanks, it’s not a good tank.
M41 Bulldog is avg
I prefer the AMX 13 75 and T71 because of autoloaders
The M41 has an auto loader, however most people prefer the 4.3 second pea shooter barrel.
Because the autoloader has low pen, and I don’t like that bulldog because once in a while I got a good game, others just got shredded by enemy teams
Does the game seem to have lag problems for others since this last update? During the game when a match starts my ping seems to be good but as soon as the match progresses on and I get closer to other tanks the lag begins to pick up big time. I've seen my ping go from 190 starting clear up to 1200 in just 30 seconds
The t71 is better
@unique fulcrum i get what your saying but maybe a small difference so RNG dont screw with HE lovers
Has everyone notice theres always 2 scavengers on a team
Eh, kinda
Yes always If you on a 5 or 6 tank
I'm usually one of those two
just an idea give T34-3 a dpm buff 1sec off from the reload and maybe 1° more of depresion from 5 to 6
The AMX 50 120 definitely needs a gun depression buff to like 7-8, 6 feels far too short
nah, amx50b would be totally worse then
it'd just be too depressing to play then
Why is panther 2 amor not like e50 it should fit in the line with the IX And X
Also it's a Panther, I don't think those are known for armor.
🤦🏼♂️
@jovial kernel oi
Why doesn't my T49 have the accuracy of the T-62 and the armor of the Maus? 🤣
lmoa donut has taken another form
Why doesn't my IS-6 have a CDC engine?
@jovial kernel why doesn't my CDC have IS-6 armor?
because its an IS-6
Why can't I put the KV-2's gun on my MT-25?
Lmfoa
Or the MT-25 gun on my KV-2?
not as much fun
The KV 2 Gun on AMX ELC bis 😂
No, I want a light tank that has the mobility to get behind people at tier 6 and just one shot top tier heavies 😦
no I mean T49 with better HE pen at tier 6
Do you remember the guy who draws tanks that depicts how tanks look like if they swap guns and hulls?
Wut
is that an t-34-85 in simpleplanes?
Yep, made it myself; it’s the K230
noice
@mighty plover like a Maus with loltractor turret or MS-1 with IS turret
Why can't I get a KV-2 gun on my T-54 ltwt?
I'd like the KV-2 gun on my T49.😐
nah T-54 ltwt for maximum bias
Nah, gib KV-2 light tank mobility and camo for maximum Russian Bias
Gib it rounded turret and sloped hull... wait, that’s T-54 ltwt
take the KV-2 then give it a 60 kph top speed, CDC engine, and the armor of the AT 2
That’s the Kpz 70, a German
@jovial kernel give it an e50m engine
@jovial kernel I think you missed my point. I'd like the 152mm on the T49 to have the same alpha as a 152mm gun that is two tiers lower.
I think that's asking too much from wargaming, buffing a tank to have the same gun as a russian tank two tiers lower? that's just too far man.
MBT 70 is a bad tank in the first place, no way wargaming would ever consider making a german tank competitive
@jovial kernel After that it will be balanced.
Why is keni otsu not tier x light
@versed night It will be overpowered in tier x.
True. After all it can kill e4 in 45 sec (tested)
too much dpm would out dpm batchats /s
can you buff Type59 ? his reload and penetration is pathetic
Hi what are you think about t-34-3?
@honest lynx no git gud.
Worf for 10000 gold?
@copper heath @unique scaffold banat ce vas ako ne pisete engleski 😄
ɴᴀʀᴄᴏʟᴇᴘᴛɪᴄɴᴏᴏʙ (ᴘᴢɢᴇʀ)#0107 was muted
@honest lynx why the hell do you think the type 59 needs a buff?
Spammajte im hrvatski
@unkempt lagoon English only please
I be apologize becos my emglesh be so so bed
what language you speak?
Whot you sayed me not understend
hablas espanol? O Ruski?
English only please!Or banned!
There is a reason it's called the English server.
Yes ban that guy pls
wtf. thank you @unique scaffold
It is croatian @small flame
yes thats cool. i was jjst trying to communicate with the guy who couldnt speak english very well. but now he wants me banned for that. oh well
jokoiron#5349 has been warned.
LMAO
Hahah nice joke. @jade cargo
You showed him/her/it
Rippp
Enable global emotes hellooo!?!
Isn't possible to make classes in game result worth some currency? For example Ace Tanker would be worth 100 gold or something like it and then lower amount depending on class.
No, there’d be zero incentive for WG to make the game free. You could just farm aces in one of the niche tanks no one plays and never have to spend another dime again
For a while, I had a 20% ace rate in the IS-8.
you could farm ace tanks in T-34-3 since no one will ever play it since is so underpowered like most chinese meds xd
meh, I think it could be Ace gives you 10 gold times the top tier tank in that match, so if you're top tier in a tier 9 and ace you get 90 gold but if it's a tier 10 match you get 100 gold
WG would never give out gold like that
Yea
Why do you guys dislike the t-34-3? It’s a very good tank
3.91 rpm
dpm is over rated
my is6 has a faster rpm than it at 4.81, which is 12.5 sec reload
Yes we’ll dpm. Isn’t everything. And it has 400 alpha as a med
I mean mine reloads in 10.3 but still dpm is over rated
dpm is what you want, like the su-122-44, or both of the Chinese tier X
lol what no 121 has crap dpm
The is6 is built to take fire so it can take advantage of that firerate, the t34-3 is built to dip in and out of combat so a high firerate wpuld be pointless.
400 dpm reload in 8.7 sec on my su 122-44, haven't gotten the Chinese tier x yet, and the Su-122-44 has amazing dpm, 400 alpha at 8.7 sec reload, its a tier 7 perm tank
I might get that one but the SU-152 gets like 3.3k dpm
the su 122-44 gets 3.480 dpm
In my opinion, T34-3 is a very nice tank, however it's reload time is a bit too much (13secs) and the pen isn't good at all (175mm in AP, I guess). Well, so I think WG should buff the reload time and maybe the pen.
Reload should be something around 11secs and the AP pen 185/190mm...
T34-3 has one of the worst T8 dpm
The 122-44 gets 2800 dpm...
Yes, T7 tanks has better dpm then it lol
@tight cedar
@lament vessel If you buff t-34-3 you have to buff some other medium tanks too.
Pen yes
^^ Yes ^^
I mean it's balanced to just not take damage when it's hull down basically
the gun handling and pen is bad
Up close it’s op
If you think the pen is bad drive a stock gun IS-6.
175 pen
Sure but the IS-6 gets to upgrade to the 122.
Very true
If you have to compare a stock IS-6 to a fully upgraded T32 heavy then it seems like a problem right?
The T32 has a better gun compared to majority of stock tanks at its tier
Hello
Anyone else think the AT series beyond the AT-2 needs a cupola armor buff? Or is it just me
oh yeah it absolutely needs that
T32 is so good tank! And the gun is good!! No buff
Yes T32 is balanced as is
how do people think 198mm pen at tier 8 is bad lmao
You just need to aim tons of tanks have weak points with lower armor
laughs in WZ-120-1 FT with lower plate hidden behind terrain
So true
I Play rather aggressively in it often going front line with heavies blocking their hull to protect them
Got 540 battles and 57 masteries
@versed lark it's just you.
@jovial kernel well than you not have enough skill for t32
That thinks AT7 AT8 and AT 15 needs cupola Buff?
no
honestly what's with people complaining about 198mm pen in the T32, I'd love that in my IS-6
Sure. Every tank needs a weakspot and having that one there is your punishment for grinding to the 183.
At1 buff to 350mm armour 60km sperd
No not complaining of 183 I think it’s rather balanced
at 7 and at 8 have too much weakspots and weak frontal armor
@jovial kernel you have in equpment better pen if you want
@dark pike once again, that is what you get for grinding the 183. That whole process should be as painful as possible.
fair enough
Don’t even have Death Star stopped at tortoise and gave up on the line
@copper heath If I use that, I lose the DPM advantage over same tier mediums.
Excellent. Then it is working as intended.
Just the lack of how slow and how weak the armor is it just isn’t enjoyable
give the t28 the pc armor and model
@jovial kernel yes. But you have always option. What do you need more?!
For me, t32 is so op tank. I use faster reload.
Because if I want 2400 dpm I need to put up with 175mm pen
at least they could buff the pen
No pen is fine for t8
nah the T32 does not need a pen buff at all guys wtf
since it carries a "heavy tank" gun or at least that dpm since i just checked and it gets outnumbered by almost every tier 6 ingame except for kv1s i guess
Can pen weak points on frontal armor of most heavies already
go play the Caernarvon if you want penetration and dpm
ups mb was meaning about the T-34-3 lol ..
caernarvon should have a stronger turret than the centurion
@unique scaffold still at least pen would help more since i ain't getting a tank just to spam HEAT after lol , i ain't a good player , not a really bad one either , and i liked the T-34-2 but this one just feels more "clumsy " than the techtree version of it lol
yeah that's a bit annoying, but the dpm and penetration in the same bundle more than make up for it
well if you do not have pen at least some dpm could cope for the shot's you missed and there is alot of troll armor in tier 8 lol
@unique scaffold hahahah 😂 😂 😂 😍 👌
@unique scaffold. What's the common thing in all those matches?
Trash teammates most likely
@versed lark. Nope. Try again
Blaze relies somewhat heavily on teamwork
I sometimes do 3k damage and only get 300-340xp on losses
@versed lark. I'll give you a clue... It's him. He was the common thing in all of those matches.
Ok kinda rude but there surely other factors 270xp on a loss is rather decent
200 where it gets rather worrying
Not meaning to be rude. I just don't sugar coat things. He is the common theme. When is he getting that damage? Is it important damage or is it end of the match damage when the game is already lost?
^ I need to work on this a lot, getting damage early in the game when it matters is an extremely important skill
@unique scaffold To be fair, the replays wasn't sent so we don't know anything. Saying something like that is not the nicest thing to say.
have you considered playing a tank you aren't terrible in
If you lose 10 in a row you are doing something wrong. It's not nice but it's the truth.
I can't even remember the last time I lost ten in a row.
12 battles 0 win !! LOL 😂
I stop playing after 4 losses in a row
@quick lichen Lol same.
after 3 in a row I swap off tanks, also I finally climbed out of the hole to 50% so that's pretty nifty I'd say
Just lost in a AT-2 over 5k damage blocked 635 damage done
I stop to play l'm 😡
I think my 13 win streak from when I got the Tankenstein helped a lot with getting to 50% lol
Bye
they cant aim
They kept using HE
Told them mid match my cupola was weak point they kept hitting hull with HE don’t know why
lmao
They probably don't know what you mean.
That what I assumed till a enemy leapord flanked me and kept hitting cupola
Got him eventually after went back onto a rock wall and kept traversing
@hybrid spoke what are your thoughts on the armor of the cupolas on the AT-7, AT-8, and AT-15?
t6 and t7 are both garbage
@versed lark Bushka never speaks.
Could always be a first you never know
Bushka(mp) likes the AT 7 a lot if I'm not mistaken
no he actually likes the tank with the 20 pdr which is easily actually one of the best guns in the tier
@versed lark how many people do you think @ him a day on this server?
yes
Roughly 60-70
Do you think he has time to respond to all of those? @versed lark
Nope I’ld assume he might check a few now and then though
Pm me please. I’ll share a secret
🤔
I got a question, why are soooo many other premium tanks getting nerfed like crazy but the one 5$ Keni Otsu isnt.
Lol cuz its useless anyhow
Hardly anyone has the tank anyway
So unused that it not a big problem
Haha it will be used a lot after update 5.5. Also pz 2j is nearly unused but its getting a nerf too.
Idk the people that have it have higher tier tanks by now that are premium only reason they would go back is for W/L ratio
Most are I believe satisfied with their W/L ratio but there will be the few people trying to still get them easy wins
Heres the thing
The tank now has a higher advantage. There arent many tanks to compete it. It will ruin low tier mm. Just nerf it ASAP
If wg does not nerf kenny with update all kenny owners will start sealclub so hard. Kenny will have 4x more dpm then others while having not a disadvantage to cover its massive advantage.
@unique scaffold We will see it. If wg doesnt touch kenny in update 5.5 it will going to be a mess.
@cedar fulcrum yeah kenny needs a major nerf in 5.5
@cedar fulcrum @naive fjord well given the rage people are having over the nerf of other premium seal clubbing tanks, im not sure if wg will dare to do it again
@remote valley good point
I hate the stupid tanks WG are selling now. Sell the Chieftain MK.6, not a bunch of useless overpriced underpowered tanks!
its a good tank
@unique scaffold 40%ers are not the problem. The problem is those newbies with less that 10 battles on record buying their way into Tier X and ruining the fun for those who spent months and years grinding to reach tier x
@unique scaffold i thought it said Fort Despacito hahahaha 😂 👌
Better underpowered than overpowered like the WZ-120-1 FT @gentle isle
200+mm of effective front armor
@jovial kernel I don’t support broken tanks either looks at glorious pink WZ-120-1 FT in garage . It’s just the current batch of tanks are boring and overpriced. At least something like the Lorraine 40t is fun.
Ke ni otsu is the hill WG is choosing to die on. Rather than nerf the most OP tank possibly ever released, they are choosing not to alienate roughly 200 total players who have spent collectively about $1000, in order to massively hit the entirety of tier 1-6 and leave the ke ni otsu even more OP. Rip that things balls off already. Please. I’ve seen about 6 of them in 100 or so low tier battles this week and clubbed the crap out of them in retaliation (which is not hard since the average otsu driver is a 48-56%er). I’ve had it up to here with WG’s schizophrenic and ill considered buffs and nerfs while low hanging fruit like the otsu remains untouched. What are they going to? Go to apple and demand a refund for a $5 purchase 3 years ago just so you can ban them for charge backs? Get real. What WG DEV loves the otsu? The same one with love for the drac and Helsing?
It’s interesting that the line is drawn over the otsu
My guess is it’s the number of players who owns it
yeah it’s tier 3 so who cares. And that’s why nothing is done 😦
1 day sale only = small number in comparison
At least the almost equally broken t46 and cruiser 4 are being dealt with
Here’s my thoughts. I have one. I’ve had it for two years. I’ve gotten my $5 out of it. Idc if it’s nerfed because I don’t feel hosed by any means. I think compensation should be there if they nerf it. Maybe like 500 gold but I’m really not upset. It surprises me to no end how angry so many people are over this. Most don’t even have one but it’s the idea that you can’t nerf premiums. That nerfing a tank that was a mistake means that every premium can be nerfed. And yes. Premium tanks can get nerfed, but they never have. The Keni otsu is such a ridiculous exception to this unwritten rule
WG claims they are offering compensation for premium tanks that are being changed. Where is the compensation for my Churchill III which will be nerfed to the ground?
@gentle isle all of tier 5 is getting nerfed into the ground
@quick lichen I thought the KV1 was not getting much of a nerf
Seems like it’s not being touched
It’s rather odd
Hold on
It’s the 85 mm guns
They’re being lowered to 140 from 200 alpha
I feel like the Ke Ni Otsu should be nerfed to the point that it’s comparable to the tech tree ke ni but offering higher DPM for less mobility and gun depression. Fair. Still unique and abusable but not quite so much. Offer 1500 in gold to anybody who wants out. Fair.
woah KV-1 nerf is a red letter day 😮
I still don't think it is right to change premium tank stats without turning them into collectors
@obsidian osprey I back that
@gentle isle I agree too. The thing is if you don’t like it you sell them for gold. The fun debate is the “not the full gold amount” debate. Technically the tanks still have some value, which is why you don’t get full gold value back
I have no problems whatsoever with WG turning premium tanks into collectors. The gold amount that is offered is worth the value of the tank IMO. I would be totally fine with WG removing some underpowered tier 8 premiums and turning them into collectors. In fact I would rather have them do that instead of letting them get powercreeped into obsolescence.
cough is-6 cough cough
@quick lichen Whats wrong with the IS-6?
10/10 penetration and armor. Legend has it that IS-6 platoons were the most broken thing ever
Uh what
Is-6 has 175 pen with the dpm gun
That’s awful
Use the heat gun and it’s the worst dpm of any 400 alpha heavy
Is-6 platoon was broken in 2016
The higher pen gun only has 221mm of pen, and I don’t feel like it is enough
I wish I can sell my IS-6 for gold. Like around 5000 gold. Hated it so much
I’ve thought about how to balance autoloaders and howitzers and it is quite tough. For autoloaders/autocannons, the cruiser 2 is instructive. It was released with a 4 second clip reload, which is ridiculously broken. I aced it in the first game with nearly 2k damage. Barf. BUT even with a 9.5s reload, it’s still abusable because low tier players have no idea how to push on a long reload tank, obviously including the KV-2 (which is a really really bad tank except for the playerbase that sees it and the hand of Stalin one shot RNG kills on 1000+ hp lights). Howitzers are already horribly underpowered against 50%+ players at low tiers, but against new players who sit still on top of the hill on mines, they do 183 level HP damage or more (T18, or T82 abusers). The answer is either to make everything a 37mm single shot with identical reload at tier 😴 or to attempt some balance and split the queues so sub 1000 battle players don’t see each other at tiers 1-4 (and risk new players walking away after a 2 minute+ wait). There’s no true win for WG :/
IS-6 is really easy to pick off now
IS-6 was always boring, but now the IS-5 has hax armor and better reload with the same bad gun and Soviet RNG. I would gladly trade my IS-6 for 7500 gold :/
I heard that the IS-5 has even better armor than the IS-8
I don't really remember but i think is-5 was bulkier and slower is-3, while is-6 was lighter armor but faster is-3
Yep. Is-8 requires effort. IS-5 will bounce well aimed shots from guns that should pen it. I don’t even bother with AP anymore. APCR and bait them so Stalin’s dispersion misses anyway.
IS-3 has the best gun out of the three that’s for sure.
So many tier 8 IS
Is-3
Is-3 defender
Is-5
Is-6
Do we count the glacial as an Is?
I know, it just seems so similar to an Is-3 i joke about it.
Good gosh you are right
And the IS-3 Bear @dim field
I thought that was just a camo
it is just a camo
I feel like there are a lot of IS-X counters now though with good pen,. The problem is poor power crept tier 7s like the T71 and SPIC. Thank god the bulldog got a buff.
Remember the time when PC M41 has a 10-round drum?
Well SP I C needs to have buffs otherwise it's rare to be seen in battle
SPIC was good before the nerf. PC Bulldog sounds dominant 😱
Nah it’s gone now, think it’s also a 3-round drum
Yeah 10 round sounds broken
Yeah SP I C needs buffs
More speed and traverse to compete with Russian LTTB
More HEAT penetration to be able to fight tier 8 instead of being a paper shell magnet
Reduced shell reload time in autoloader (2.5 seconds is balanced I'd say for tier 7) since the DPM isn't good as Dracula
I'm open to any opinion on what buffs SP I C needs
I feel like it was fine before nerf. If anything in that line, VK 28, Leo, and Luchs needed nerf
Luchs needs to be buffed back since I love playing in it in CnR lol
I'm keeping it but I'll still keep asking for traverse speed buff
Why not? It's no longer attainable but I'm still keeping a robber legend tank lol
Luchs is being removed anyways so... 🤷♂️
Leo escaped a nerf for no apparent reason lol
Does Wargaming listen to what players say here???
Not sure tbh
Leo and kv-1 were/are probably the biggest boss tanks in tier 5.
I won't be surprised if WG opened discord server just to make players more patient
Maybe
I think wg does listen, but remember that listening and doing what the players tell them are not the same thing.
Hmm well for sure SP I C badly needs a buff
Luchs also since less players would be using it
Leopard? It already got nerfed and less shells tbh. What's there to be nerfed? @dim field @obsidian osprey
I wasn't really saying it needs or doesn't need a buff. Was more of refering to kv-1 and leo being amoung the best tier 5 tanks. Every tier seems to have their own "boss" tanks. Boss tanks that tend to be a large difficulty spike that aren't usually handled the same as other tanks of that tier. Boss tanks are the ones that usually give less experienced players the most trouble, especially when those players are tier 4 and go up against a leo or kv-1 for the first time.
Did Leo get nerfed? I haven’t kept track. It’s still crazy good even in mediocre hands so I feel like it could use a light touch of nerf (a few more second of reload and slight pen nerf but preserve the mobility and clip size/characteristics). WG only listens to prammo and a few other clans as play testers for balance decisions. RU server 90% determines balance decisions anyway so why bother. They do seem to be responsive to massive player outrage when it comes to monetarily relevant things like crates though 🤷♀️
@dim field well SU152 is a boss tank for tier 7
Not sure about tiers 6,8,9,10
Agreed, I would consider su152 to be a boss tank. Used to be scared to death of them. Especially when i couldn't pen em from the front and they always seemed to be backed into a corner ready to one shot me.
For tier 6 Id wager kv-2 is a boss tank given how it is infamous for one shotting.
For tier 8 maybe rhm is a boss tank. It gets to a point though that there are less boss tanks as you go
Lol the accuracy meh.....Su100 seems to be my boss tank
Kv-2 is the best tank in the game especially for snapshots wdym ?
I don't do snapshots,I do very few snapshots
Only unskilled players would do it and sometimes they get dumb luck lol
Snapshots I do only with accurate guns like Lowe(full equipment) and E50M
16 K games and 55,38% WR have been playing since patch 1.2 and trust me the kv2 is awesome for snapshots
Nah I wouldn't take the risk of snapshots,see the gun specs. Kv2 is balanced despite the HE alpha nerf
I know how derpy it can be I have over 1 K games in that thing
Ammo price for the centurion should be lower when using the max cannon
Same lol @unique scaffold
There can be more than one boss tank per tier. It's not so much a one per tier kinda deal.
I fear the kv-2 platoon.
Leo toon, kv-2 toon, drac toon are the platoons that scare me the most. I've been in so many games where that those toons just slaughter every man woman and child in sight. Especially given how mm balances my teams.
It'll give me one stock kv-2 and then have us go against 3 fully stocked kv-2s
T6 Dracula ismt even so strong. Amx cdc is same and ru251 has better dpm
Yeah I love being in Dracula platoon
It's like a wolf pack with high win rate and super fast mobility
Dracula is balanced
AP is normal
But apcr is high pen
But it's paper armour and has less traverse than LTTB
I only do snapshots if I know I have time to reload, it pays off when I'm in my IS-6 travelling full speed and hit a 50 120 turret
Drac is tier 7, CDC and Ru are tier 8.
A drac toon can verse tier 6
Don't think so I recall beating a tier 7 enemy platoon types of TD and HT
I love playing against kv2 platoons means it's already 2 tanks in their team that I can one shot
I am scared of helsing xd
Hellsing is slower than Dracula and less penetration
Wouldn't mind taking on two helsings at same time with an IS-5
But mobility is way to high in amx cdc and t6 drac. They have better mobility than ru251 but ru251 is a light tank!
Yeah but Dracula has a nuclear powered engine called Redcell which delivers 1200 horses,same power as my 65 ton E50M while Dracula is only 30 tons(the armour is paper,why not 20 tons???)
I'm not scared of hellsing to be honest.
I've got a hellsijg though, so I'm more used to knowing howto mess with them.
Like when their second shot misses. Or that my Blaze can bounce em point blank.
What? Helsing has less pen than Drac? it has 15mm more pen than drac lmao
Probably why i fear dracs is most my tier 7's and even tier 8 are turretless tds and dracs can push and circle me easily
@jovial kernel LMAO
Hellsing shells
AP:140-150mm
APCR:196mm
HE: IDK
Dracula
AP:155mm CLAW
APCR:243mm FANG
HE:60-70mm SWARM
As a result the vampire wins
Dracs and cdc have still better mobility than ru251
Tbh Dracula should be a flying tank since it's a vampire LMAO XD
What? The Helsing has 170mm pen on standard.
I was surprised when i saw Drac didn't have vampire in mad games.
Imagine how unbalanced that would be.
Both are OP and only statspadders play these tanks.
I don't remember helsings stats now,last time I saw the pen it was below 150mm @jovial kernel
That was in Halloween 2016
actually, it's always been 170mm pen
I play since release wot blitz c:
No it wasn't always 170, I'm sure it was below that when it came out,my memory is mostly correct
It's literally always been 170
Seems like my memory got mixed up with the Rudy tank penetration lol
Happens to us all.
And happens the more you age
I only just turned 18 lol @dim field
Happy Birthday
Thanks,just to tell u,it was today lol @dim field
@dim field what tank is that? Helsing?
@void patrol yep Abraham Helsing,the legendary Vampire Hunter
Yeah that was for helsing
Abraham Helsing 
😂
lets keep on topic as well guys
Well buff VK 45.02 A
Agreed,it feels like a very slow medium tank with less armour than a tiger II,seems to be too weak
I love toaster btw such a good tank
45.02 A could use a gun depression buff to 8 degrees but other than that eh
The paper TDs ain't my type duh,even I suck at Stug III
The only true love I have is for Stalinium TDs
Su100,Su152,Su101
Currently grinding ISU-152 and SU-122-54
Eh?! Eh?! Read again what you said @jovial kernel 😡
pretty sure the 45.02 A only has 6 degrees atm
Well it needs to have same armour thickness as Kingtiger and also turret armour
I find vk45A easy to kill
@jovial kernel i just wanted to say it needs a big buff because it is so underpowered
It's not a proper heavy tank, playing it like a proper heavy is just asking to be rekt in it
okay, here's a real suggestion: buff the AMX CDC's gun bloom while traversing turret and hull to .12, instead of .16
its super hard to hit anything on the move in the CDC because the gun blooms a lot
It out-DPMs all the other mediums and out-flanks them too. It has to have some sort of weakness. Like gun bloom and armor
its also as massive as a house and gets a poor camo rating
CDC isn't a good tank in general oof
What do you mean?!
and the DPM on the CDC is not better than all other meds. or even most of them
CDC is a great tank. Good DPS and mobility to flank around.
okay never mind, it has more DPM than most tier 8 meds
but not all of them
and the Ru gets more DPM by 400
the CDC is basically a worse Ru
less DPM, less mobility, less chance to get hit or HE penned
I call CDC a better version of Dracula.
Dracula has a higher top speed, a tighter bloom, better side armor, and a cooler sounding gun lol
🤔
also the RU has HESH/HEP
CDC has slightly better gun stats: better aim time and better dispersion by a bit more
Rip. Can't say that anymore. Seems like CDC should be worse than Dracula. I think you are right. @bold dagger
and larger HP pool, but it better because its a tier up
CDC was way worse than the Dracula when it first debuted
now, they're roughly equal. they each have their own benefits
Dracula is also smaller and gets a better camo rating, and is harder to hit because of the size
if i could trade my CDC for a Dracula, i would. for sure
Very nice. 👍
On wot pc ....amx cdc has 240 alpha ......cdc needs that small buff of 20 alpha with same rate of fire
no, on PC tanks have more hp at high tiers. CDC needs gun handling
Gravedigger needs nerf
WoT PC is almost a different game
*sorry, correction. Basically its the sane game, with the same concept. But if you look at the details you will find 2 very different games
yall are mad dumb if you think the cdc needs a buff
whoooo tf just said cdc needs buff
The buff they asked for was adjusting the bloom while on the move
Jpz E-100 needs aim time buff
@small flame @tiny cairn i did
gun bloom while traversing on the CDC is like driving a heavy tank
I did too
@bold dagger thank God it has awful gunhandling
and whys that
It already is difficult to hit if you play peek a boom with it cause the gun is mounted high on the turret + -10 gd
It's a unique tank
The buff it got was what it needed and that should stay that way, once it's buffed its unlikely to be reverted
And I don't see too many CDCs having trouble hitting me in my RU 251 whilst peek a booming, so it can't be that bad, not to forget it has really nice dpm
I agree on Panther and AT, but why the SU?
why su ?
OK so you want an overpowered tank? I can see you're a little salt lord
I have su12244 out of the 3 but it can perform well but u see the op Wz at tier8? Its nowhere close to thay
And WZ is out of question to be more like a t9 tank
I can do average 1.5k if my team is good and i can farm off their hp pools. It cant afford to tade with tier8 heavys and dame tier tanks
No tanks should be OP man, just because one is op doesn't mean they should make a few more op tanks that are locked behind paywalls
It's a t7 not a t8 omegalul
I agree on overpowered WZ it should be t9 or nerfed dpm
Im not sayin make the 12244 OP just buff its gun handling
It's fine dude
It cant afford to trade with hevys and enemies head on and u gotta snipe but the aim time and dispersion is shet like is5 shet,its suppose to be russian but not that much troll even if im fully aimed it goes nowhere near the target
Wz 120-1g FT is balanced.
Id take the WZ instead of the tier9 dpm 12254 bcs of armor
Just gun handling buff and it will never need a buff again and you'll see more of them out there and also AT15A and m/10 buff
It's a td it shouldnt trade at all, you have the lowest hp out of all classes, (except German tds), the SU can just club with its good Dpm, not to forget that heavies tend to have higher pen than lights and meds, you should reconsider how you play it maybe.
Oh sure you're gonna check out my stats cause logic, no matter what the stats are there is thing that are just the way they are you know
Being knowledgeable is something different from being a good player, and I am not a horrendous player at all if you think that now
T-44-100 need more penetration at ap
Same gun as every other soviet med in tier 8
T-44-100 needs gun handlings buff imho.Currently its just a t-44 with worse gun depression and mobility.
But T-44-100 is better at side scrap but hasn’t got armour at tower and front plate
T-44 is better than T-44-100 in my opinion
Being knowledgeable can tie into your skill because if you understand your tank you would be able to exploit it's strong sides and do better @full grove
Hi my name is jeff#6395 was muted
Honestly the t-44-100 is a proper premium. Worse than the tech tree version with better credit making. It seems like it sucks because of how op all other tier 8 premiums are
@quick lichen we all know we must balance the fantasy tanks due to them being fantastic.
Because why not?
ask Serb
Hi my name is jeff#6395 was banned
It’s only one reason why I like T-44-100 have large earning but in side scrap is good
But 175 mn penetration are you kidding me light ru 132 and lekpz m 90mn have more penetration why
Why o why is the wz 120 ft still untouched
Idk
Because WG compiles data from a number of updates before making a change. That's why.
This video is banned in our country for some copyright issues
This is the msg i get when i open this link
But its a video about the game balance not about gameplay
I’m sure this has been asked and answered a million times, but...
How, exactly, does the 4% buff for improved armor work?
I’ve seen posts on this in various places, but they never seem consistent or definitive. So, does anyone know the WG sanctioned answer?
Damn. Not balance related. Sorry.
It’s honestly very confusing
All armor thicknesses are supposed to be 4% thicker but I don’t think it has that effect
If that effect takes place, the Tiger I will have 104mm frontal armor; doesn’t really change anything.
@shy wren not true. A extra 4mm of armor angled is a huge increase.
the armor buff is much better on tanks like the IS-3 than box tanks
Frontally, not really.
Hi everybody, can we continue to use skin mod ( hd skin no ammo position or anything)
Yes. @shy wren
An extra 4mm of armor when angled at 45 degrees turns into a extra 6mm of thickness.
Superheavies however, will benefit greatly from the 4% buff to armor
At a tier which the minimum pen for mediums is around the 140s, it’s not really worth it; as it can just go through, and you’re exposing your side armor
@shy wren. Not worth it? The numbers just went from pen to not pen. It's totally worth it.
Feel free to message around with the numbers yourself. https://panzerworld.com/relative-armor-calculator?armor_thickness=100&angle_type=sine&angle_1=45&angle_2=90
Calculate the relative armor thickness of a sloped armor plate. Specify either one or two slope dimensions.
Also, take in account for the 5° of normalization
But has WG ever confirmed that it really is a 4% boost to thickness? Too many people out there claim it isn’t a straight increase in the armor mm.
@crimson cosmos. They haven't... And that is a whole different issue.
That’s what I thought. Why on earth wouldn’t they just say?
@crimson cosmos ha, where's the fun in that!
Twisted man. I knew there was a reason I liked you.
At a 45° slope, regular AP will normalize by 5°, making the slope 40°. Using Tank Inspector, shooting a Tiger I with a Comet that has 148mm armor gives a guaranteed pen.
Some tier VIs will struggle against that armor at that angle, namely the Shermans, but most of the tanks can pen the Tiger like that
@crimson cosmos. Why introduce a clear well described change when you can introduce a poorly described change that creates confusion and generally clouds the water?
@shy wren not necessarily once you take into account the +15/-15% variance that the great RNGEsus gives us.
Armor Inspector has already taken that to account, hence the percentage chance of it penetrating its shots. The Comet with 148 has a 100% chance of penning, the T37 at 50% chance of penning with 135mm of pen and the Shermans at 0% percent with their 76mm guns producing 128mm of pen
Anyways, it’s been nice discussing with you, I’ve gotta sleep now.
Good night!
Last thing to note; the tier Vs will really struggle with the armor of the Kuro. They don’t even have the pen to deal with an angled Kuro.
@coral echo I meant being knowledgable in in that manner, you can be knowledgable, but still bad at the game because you are not good at executing your knowledge under "stress"
Lol there is no stress in playing wotb. It's not like every game is the finals for the twister cup
You are entitled to your own opinion, no matter how wrong it is
^^^
I'm married. I'm always wrong.
ooft
@bold zephyr Drac needs 152mm gun and 3000hp engine.
@cedar fulcrum Yeeesssss and 300mm front plate and turret
and 600mm penetration
An 183mm auto loader
6 sec reload for the clip
6 shots 6 seconds right
Let's not for get make it heavier so it can ram nicely
.7 reload per shell and 6 for the clip
Lol am chilling in German class talking about tanks lol
prob pay attention then
Who needs .7 interclip for 6 shells when you could just ditch the autoloader and have a .7 reload time
laughs in Black Prince
On adrenaline it fires as fast as the t37 unloads...
yeah basically
I think t44-100 needs a better engine
and gun depresion
T44-100 at least needs the 560 hp engine that’s on the t44
Vk 45A is so terrible
It's not a proper heavy tank
I agree @quick lichen
T-44-100 is what premiums are supposed to be. Slightly inferior to a fully upgraded comparable tech tree tank that earn additional credits
Looks at Löwe’s stats
@unique scaffold 🤦🏼♂️I said the same thing hours ago and people still don’t understand what premiums originally were
Everyone knows certain premiums are way too good. That’s not the debate here
@quick lichen🤷
I’m aware and would agree with diablo that’s how it should be
@quick lichen premium tanks should be slightly weaker than tech tree tanks because they earn a lot of credits
@wind cape. He literally just said that.
Why are you telling me exactly what I said earlier and literally just agreed with?
🤦🏼♂️
Premiums should be slightly worse than the top tech tree tanks with something interesting added to make the playstyle slightly different
I just joined the discussion
So instead of reading what’s been said you just jump in and make assumptions?
Pray for rng and yolo basically?
I have to pray to rngesus. And I agree that vk 45 a is wonderful
Well it got quiet
@jovial kernel Exactly! Premium tanks are made to be unique, not to be OP.
They are made to reward those who spent the money on them
Yup
Blitz in America we have day light savings time tournaments are an hour off please fix
I mean the Tankenstein is slow and has terrible DPM but it's special because it has a whopping big gun and a special play style. That means I like the tank and do pretty well in it.
Does it have a peekaboo play style? @jovial kernel
It's a peek a boom tank with armor and the second highest alpha in the tier
Hey guys, do u think wg will nerf the black prince?
Eh..
idk if they will tbh
imo SU-122-54 should lose 250 dpm and then Tortoise and Jagtiger should be buffed to have maybe 100 more dpm than it
@mighty spear Well they eventually nerfed the Tiger so it's somewhat likely but they probs won't touch the FV201
5.5 test server only shows a small traverse nerf for the BP
lets be real here tho. the vk45a is a super fun tank to play
Hello people
The Leo needs a gun nerf
i would say the leo needs improvments
not getting nerfed , it has a good gun , and good gun handling , nothing else barely any gun deppresion no armour mobilitty is bad for a tank with no armour
needs bit more mobility , or something that can make it decent
More mobility? It's. faster then a lot of the lights at tier 5
well , ok not mobility but something that will improve it
It does not need a buff
it is way behind the competition
It does over 300 damage a clip and has super good accuracy
yeah but that is the only good things about it , just has good dpm and a accurate gun thats all
What tank is it "way behind" it also has good mobility
well the e50 m outplays 90% of the time
The e50 is a tier 9 what Leo do u think I'm talking about
the e 50m the tier 10
I'm talking about the tier V Leo
oh i thought you were talking about leo 1 at tier 10 , sorry
No they are fine not OP at all
btw quicky question , it the m48 patton good ?
I don't have it yet I'm on the pershing
i have the sherman jumbo
Don t sell it
im also grinding the heavies , also do you know when update 5.5 is coming out ??
Lol
the Leopard is literally getting nerfed it's so good
How much do you know, also what heavy line?
I mean it's being overnerfed and will need a buff after it but still it's getting a nerf
the 1 to the t110e5
@warped mesa I hated the E5 till I got it to 95% crew but now I love it
right now i have the t29 and im still trying to figure out some good hold down positions so right now im not doing too well in the t29 .
Do you have another tier Xs?
my only tier 10 is the fv 215b 183
Just find any spot that makes it so the bottom third of your screen in sniper mode is blocked by the ground and you have a good spot generally for the T29
Well that's not going to help you with the E5
oh ok thx , yeah i dont have alot of high tier tanks , i generally play tier 7-9 because i love some of those tanks and they re arent as many derps at those tiers
If you want a proper meme tank the ISU-152 has a ridiculous gun if you want to just completely wreck everything
but i cant say much about derps when i have the fv
i had the isu 152 but not the top gun i sold it though
You should have seen the t29 before it got its buff it was way harder then it is now
i have saw some replays about the t29 before its buff , the thing i dont like about the t29 is the 13 sec reload can do about 250 -300dmg in 1 shot
it can be annoying but the pen is wonderful
Well now most of the time it does over 300 damage also the turret speed was buffed
it just struggles against russian heavies and german frontal armour
And they all struggle vs it's turret
when its in a bad matchup against tier 8 , but its so satasfiying to bounce big tds guns and let your allies storm through while they reload
Ya but some times they hit your weak spot right above the mantlet then you will be mad
the only tank im not looking forward too in that line is the t32 , it looks good but if caught out in open you will be in the garage pretty quickly with all the guns getting bigger and bigger
Ya the only thing bad about it is it has almost no pen
i try and wiggle my turret to try minimize that happening
thats not good for me then i will have to load alot of gold rounds which i really dont like doing
Well you can pen most tanks lower glades. Cya
You too cya
So it's on the bottom and people can see it the leopard needs a gun nerf (I'm talking about the tier V leopard)
@hidden solstice M6a2e1 EXP wants to join this discussion.
Lowe's lower plate is a meme
What about the m6a2e1 exp @cedar fulcrum?
@hidden solstice Uhm its lower plate is around 260mm efective.
Lowe would like to have a word
So not all tanks lower plate is weakspot. Mutants, t28htc, t95, Super pershing, Fochs, all british at tanks, is3 and is3d lower plates are not the weakspot.
IS-3 and IS-3D's lower plates are weak spots because they're less angled
also Jackson's strongest armor is that transmission bit, and the VK 45.02 A's upper and lower plates are the same strength
The jumbo's lower plate is not its weak spot either
@jovial kernel Is3 lower plate is only 5mm less efective then its upper plate and is3 d lower plate is same efective as upper plate. I wouldnt call them weakspots.
Also @cedar fulcrum if you read what I said I said it can pen MOST tanks lower plate
@hidden solstice I wasnt talking about most pen can it. Im saying its lower plate is not weakspot compared to lower plate.
@cedar fulcrum I know but I was telling @warped mesa that the t32 has bad pen but it can pen MOST tanks in the lower plate, how often do you see the m6 exp
T32 load 60% prem rounds click battle and your good
That thing really could do with a DPM buff
I did fine in mine and I had vary little prem
Aim time buff l
T32 turret is annoyingly impenetrable tho
@regal grove Yeah, it'ss the only good part about the entire tank.
The hull doesn’t get enough credit
Hull is ok, good enough for American tank
The hull is kinda bouncy unlike the t29
Ffs T32 only has a 0.5 second faster reload at most compared to the T29 and the only gets minors buffs to hull and turret
Bring reload down by 1.5s at least vs T29
But the t29 is better tier for tier
By far
@inner goblet T32 has better mobility then t29 and t34.
@cedar fulcrum Doesn't make up for the bad pen and medicore DPM. All it needs is a DPM buff imo.
@inner goblet T32 has better dpm then t34.
Aim time
@cedar fulcrum Obviously, but compared to the T29 it only reloads half a second faster, a tier higher in T8 which is filled with crazy good tanks
@inner goblet T32 is more mobile and its armor is better in every single way. It has enough advantages to be a tier 8 tank. A tank with higher tier doesnt always means better dpm.
@cedar fulcrum The armour profile is basically equal tier-for-tier (hull is noticably more trollish, I will admit), and it's power to wieght ratio is only 1.5 hp/t better (using WoTB Assistant Tankopedia)
T32 hull armor is much better then t29 hull armor tier-for-tier. Also T32 has much better gun handlings then t29. It aims faster, more accurate on the move and better base accuracy.
For the love of god only buff that t32 can use is the cuppola armor buff. Yes its small but its easy to penetrate when you hit it.
Effective armor for the cuppola is around 200mm which it should be much more imho. It should be 230mm at least. I mean the god of hulldowning shouldnt be penned that easy when hulldowing.
40mm more effective thickness is not that much better at tier 8. Better gun handling is true I will admit. I agree the cupola could do with a buff.
@inner goblet T29 is generally slightly better then t32 tier-for-tier because they buffed all tier 7 heavies to oblivion to balance out the drac and helsing mess. T32 is balanced except the cuppola armor imho.
(Tiger 1, Tiger P and Black Prince intensify)
Of course only buff the heavies tho
I do badly in the BP WR%-wise because I get too overconfident in it lol
@jovial kernel Yeah its so stupid they didnt buffed the light tanks with them.
also, my KV-13 is basically outclassed in every single way by the Helsing
@jovial kernel Every td is outclassed by helsing lmao. 😂 😂 😂
Nah, SU-152 ain't
@jovial kernel helsing is actually better then su-152. Helsing has better armor better mobility and much better gun handlings. And oh it has a damn turret. What su152 have? Only a 152mm gun.
yes but at least the SU-152 has something it does better. The SU-152 can also just out dpm the Helsing if it wants to use a 122mm.
Very true^
@jovial kernel Having better dpm does not make the tank better immidiately. Helsing has way more advantages to cover up its worse dpm.
He didn’t say it made it overall better he said it is something it does better than the helsing
@versed lark Being better at something doesnt make overally better.
I never said it was overall better, are you high?
Never said that I’m stating that it is better in one statistic
Dear lord please nerf that digusting thing. Who the hell thought having a tank that has amazing dpm, good mobility, and heavium armour was a good idea?
You said su-152 is not outclassed by helsing which means su-152 is equally as good as helsing.
I'm saying the advantages it has can be leveraged. I never said they were equally good.
Is this SU-152 v Helsing?
@cedar fulcrum It's like the ISU-152 vs the WZ-120-1 FT. The 120-1 is the better tank, but the advantages the ISU has can be leveraged to win.
Yes
Helsing is better IMO. It has fully rotatable turret.
well no shit
Sounds like someone didn’t read what we were saying
Well duh. I just got here.
I said that the SU-152 wasn't completely outclassed by the Helsing because it either has crazy alpha or ludicrous amounts of DPM and German Bias took that as me saying "the SU-152 is better than the Helsing" which is outright false.
^
Ok ok. Look.
I said the SU-152 has some things that it does better. He took that as "it does everything better lolololol"
Helsing and SU 152 has their advantages and disadvantages. For example, SU 152 running the 152 mm has more DPS tha the helsing. If you are able to exploit these advantages, then you'll find that said tank is better.
Exactly. I said the SU-152 has some advantages that the driver can leverage to win against a Helsing, and he read that as "SU-152 is better than Helsing lmao"
If you can't find these advantages due to your gameplay style, then you'll think said tank is weak.
This is why people will debate which tank is better.
Maus is better than MS-1. fight me
lol
Plus, whether a tank is better comes down to the versitility of the tank. If you have a turret, then the tank is more versitile.
Rear mounted vs front mounted and central also impact gameplay significantly
Full traverse or partial traverse turret also makes a difference
You're just repeating what I said at this point. I said the Helsing was better but it's possible for an SU-152 to win if it uses it's advantages.
@versed lark Exactly! I'm glad you are beginning to realise this.
Anyone care to debate against me? My claim is the Maus is better than the MS-1
The MS-1 is Russian. I win.
Lmao a ms-1 could beat a maus
Maus is tier 10 but MS-1 is tier 1. Hence MS is worse. 🙃
Oof think I just lost
Lol. And I thought I will be the loser. Says so in the name. 🤣
Russian bias transcends tiers. Just look, the KV-2 at tier 6 has a better gun than the T49 at tier 8.
Yep
Oof
UE 57 vs KV-2
UE-57 because it's more fun.
UE 57 because it literally won't be hit
KV-2 Dispersion it cant hit if you far enough away
Assuming Hasty shot doesn’t happen
I wonder if u hit close enough to the ue57 if the he splash could kill it without an impact.
Or is it lucky shot...... I don’t know my skills
Wonder how a P. 1000 Ratte or a P. 1500 Monster would be balanced
@jovial kernel any ideas?
It can be balanced by having the map actually be the inside of a Ratte or Monster with ramps for getting around the different levels.
Very in the box idea XD looking for a more out of the box approach though
@proven helm the smash can kill it i once got a double kill with the KV-2 splash
5.5 won’t help anything if they don’t find away to fix there match making system
I fully agree
Just plz don’t remove the 5cm from the Leo
rip they are lol
@acoustic schooner
@shy wren Y tho, the 5 cm is garbo
no
meadsy likes it tho I mean he doesn't play tier 5 often but he does like the 5 cm
:(
I like that gun at tier V
I even suggested that gun to Meadsy in the first place in a YT comment.
Nerf the most overpowerd tank in the game the helsing ho, it has great dpm, great alpha (400) after both bullets, great armor great speed theres pretty much no flaws.
The IS-5 is kinda underwhelming, that fat triangle of death on the top of the hull basically makes the armour useless
@gilded pulsar You can't nerf Premiums. It is an unspoken rule. WG is a business model, not some charity that can do whatever they want with their content.
Plus, the roof of the turret is only 35mm
And the gun has accuracy to be ashamed of
The gun's Russian. What did you expect? British gun handling?
I expected a gun that could hit the target from ~20m+; guess I expected too much from Russian engineering.
Thats derp for you. It misses when it should hit and hits when it should miss
No wonder why the Russians got slaughtered by the Germans
Nah, Actually, that is only true at the start. The Russians did turn the war around.
Guess they had better RNG late in the war
The German Bois just over engineered their tanks
The IS-5 just seems like a Chinese knockoff of the IS-8, except that the Chinese one is the WZ tri. 1
Flaws with hellsing, turret turning speed sucks, you can avoid that by turning your hull with the turret but that gives up your armor. The double barrel also can miss if you try shooting a target that's moving too fast. Also pretty sure it's got bad camo, not sure though.
in response to person saying the helsing has no flaws
@modern fern tf is that
Those are WOT halloween tanks
@unique scaffold
Am i right @modern fern?
Ik
@dim field Helsing sealclubber just found.
Huh?
@dim field What huh? Slow turret traverse is common for all tds with turrets so its not a disadvantage at all.
Helsing has only one disadvatage and its gun depression. Other than it has no disadvantage.
And double barrel xD
I have seen many players miss me when I am backing up or going fast
If the team is gud..not best but gud ...then it is extremely op
-
I'm saying huh to the "Helsing sealclubber just found"
-
I'd definitely say a slow turret traverse is a possible disadvantage. Even if it's common among Turreted TDs, it's still a disadvantage.
Not when there are 2 chances to hit a target or pen a target rather than the one that every other tank gets
I mean what other tier 7 turretted tds are there?
@ember thunder Thats because second shot comes 0.25 later.This is not tank fault if driver didnt lead his shot.
@dim field It has much more advantages to cover up its weakness. There is literally no point to defend helsing here.
@proven helm T25/2
Is 4 more OP XDDDDD
WHAT WILL U SAY NOW
@ember thunder This has nothing to do with our topic.
They said the helsing has no flaws.
So i pointed out some of it's flaws.
If the helsing was truely flawless, it would have the best armor all around and nothing could pen it. It'd do more damage than any other tank while also being faster than any tank while having zero cost to use. Does it have strengths? Yes. However it's not some mass miracle tank that cannot be killed. It's got it's weaknesses so therefore it's not perfect.
Also I'm still confused by your "Helsing sealclubber just found" remark
Helsing sealclubbers usually defend their tank.
Btw being flawless doesnt mean it has to be best in every kind of situtation. It has enough advantages to be flawless.
@cedar fulcrum you clearly need to update your definition of flawless...
So I'm a helsing seal clubber (didn't know a tier 7/8 was seal clubbing) because I said the helsing isn't flawless?
@cedar fulcrum look up the definition of flawless🤦🏼♂️
@dim field no. You’re not
Flawless in a tank would mean perfect for every situation
@dim field Using a known overpowered to beat your enemies is counts as seal clubbing.If you use helsing then you are one of the worst person in this community.
Nope
@cedar fulcrum that is such nonsense.
Tier 7 first and foremost is not a seal clubbing tier
Why does using a tank automatically makes you become the worst people
German bias#8740 was muted
@wary holly it doesn’t.
yea
This user has a lot of “interesting” ideas about blitz
The funny thing is while I do play helsing from time to time (mainly for credits) the tanks with the most battles are my tier 8/9
Raik, why are you wasting brain cells mate
Dude I don’t know
Probably because I’ve banned that kid 7 times and he keeps making new email accounts
Who
Go drink some water, calm down and chill. If you’re needed I’ll give you a tag, there’s no point in arguing with people like these…never argue with a noob, he will bring you down to his level and beat you with experience
Wait really? 7 times.
true dedication is making 7 email accounts and get this discord for all of them
(0_0)/
Just waiting for the 8th
Yeah but uk that kids probly not gonna stop 4 a while
Helsing OP? It’s quite good, but defeatable with the right gun. It’s armor is easily overmatched by 122mm and is susceptible to HE due to 40mm of side armor.
Although it has quite good mobility, it doesn’t really traverse well. 47°s of combined hull and turret traverse is not that good for a tank that can be circled
what do you think about the insertion of the projectile helmet 152 m in the back hellsing
Mmm, juicy
100mm and 122mm guns can do that too
Yep but better gun 152 mn or vindicator gun
One-shot wonders. It’s engine deck at the rear is only 25mm too
Kv2 does kv2 lol. And the big TDs at that tier bacicly 1 wrong move and no hps left. And that changes play style. Also if u try to brawl an is or even a t29 and tanks like that frontally which I've seen numbers of times u can be penetrated on your frontal top plate 4 some and the turret ring. Also its hull Is kinda like a minny grave digger and it's easy to slot 1 on that lower plate if u can get in a good distance. U can bully little tanks all day but when u get flanked it's all over
New players being able to buy any premium they want irrespective of battle count and experience, good thing or bad thing? Does it actually help WG with gaining customers or is it likely to result in new players being put off the game? Should there be a restriction on what level of premium tank can be purchased depending on battle count and experience? I think there should. It completely messes the balance of teams when you end up with a totally inexperienced player trying to play higher tiers, as in tier 8/9 particularly. Perfect example....
197 battles
IS-6
lol
embraced hellsing can do a lot but you also need to know the place for him or how to angulate and how bad you go and in the opposite team is troll np Rhm or isu-152 to one shoot
Admitted has no map knowledge so just followed the player next to him!
@fossil marten lmfao
He’s not too bad; at least he knows how to shoot
Sory for my english
imagine having löwe but dont know how to use provisions and consumeables
Imagine having Lowe or IS6 and having no idea how your armour works!
Or even how to angle
Omg why
Exactly @wind sandal
But it’s not his fault. He’s been allowed to do this. Why is there a delay on sending on this channel?
It’s set like that, even on all channels
You still can edit comments tho
Like what I’m doing
The slow mode
Because people spam... And hopefully having to think about a topic before posting will cut down on the stupidity... It hasn't worked so far but I'm an optimist.
Question on perspective, what if it has worked and this is nothing compared to what may have been?
Like ok. U start the game u buy the t14 in my opinion like a little American is6 kts life Is around angling. And using the little bit of gun depression. Cus I can take nearly ever tank and pen it with ap but a few angles and boom. 200 to 300 armour and nothing at that tier can pen. And with the is6 u get more armour but a flat side is weak tier 8 lights and mids still have trouble but that's the point. But u try to fight an is3 or thr t34 not knowing angles and to get the most armour and hiding the weak top u will lose that battle every time
Touche @dim field
Another alt. Really?
@midnight gulch. Can't you take a hint?
@unique scaffold didn’t you ask him not to ping you?
Um, you’re comparing tanks from different tiers. How’s that an argument?
Lol
Why Object 263 Have the most strong armor in game? 250 mm
I’ve faced quite a few Helsings when I played Blitz on the Asia Server. Yes, they can be OP when they are played correctly. Yes, they are powerful. But the tank is not that OP when you consider that the tank is riddled with weakspots
@tired sorrel it’s not in reality
