Will the A-20 be receiving a penetration nerf?

#

I prefer T57 Heavy because you can HE pen the side of an AMX 50 B pretty easily with a TD

unique scaffold
#

@summer mortar. Yes

twilit crystal
#

t57 heavy is just a glorified 183.

#

indeed. it is the 183 of heavies in tier X

supple jolt

but it needs 5 seconds or longer depending on if you need to aim to dump out all it's damage while the 183 only needs a few seconds to aim

@summer mortar down to 50 iirc

@supple thistle but t44 have more armor on turret? Is it?

The T44 has the worst turret of the three, the only thing it has that the other 2 don't is more gun depression

@humble spear yep. The autoreloading mechanic will break the game

no no no, I mean the UDES and Pantera being premium tanks.

deft willow
#

@humble spear yep their corresponding tech tree tanks will be added aswell. Just like the 30 B

humble spear
#

I seriously doubt Wargaming will put both the progetto mod 46 and P44 pantera as premium tanks, same case for the UDES and Strv S1.

sullen vault
#

I highly doubt that too because the solution they can create by making those premuims is have them be from the wg nation like dracula.however if we actually put it into thought.Making whole new provisions,camos,and mechanic for just making them premuim is pretty dumb

dusky oxide
#

Type 59 was the only chinese tank for a long time and it had its own nation, just no filter for it in garage. Then the same for type 62. Im surprised the strv 7-something wasnt made swedish.

sullen vault
#

Tanks like progetto and strv s1 maybe,but not the other two

empty copper
#

Just putting it out there - the presence of multiple WZ-120-1 G FT in about half of games is really spoiling enjoyment. When there's one or more on both sides it renders the other 8-10 tanks almost irrelevant as most of the damage and kills will end up with the WZs and tree other tanks are just there to feed them.

#

WarGaming Can't Nerf Premiums, they could get sued for it so they dont!

quick lichen
#

They 100% can nerf premiums

twilit crystal

thats what they say in their contract but EU legal law overrides that

It is strange that 121B is on the bottom when it comes to WR🤔. I mean like the tank feels better than the regular 121 IMO. 🤷

quick lichen
#

What happens if blitz stops?

#

Do I get a virtual copy of a premium tank?

summer mortar
#

@quick lichen they cant, when they nerfed the type 59 it didn't end well. If they could nerf premiums, they would because an overwhelming amount of people call for nerfs on prems nowadays, but nothing happens, but when a few people call for a nerf on a tech tree tank, WG dosent even hesitate.

quick lichen
#

They have the ability to do so

#

They choose not to

atomic hound
#

The day wg nerfs premiums will be the day their sales plummet. If they ever want to re-balance the game, they'll just have to buff everything up to the level of the most powerful premium at that tier... The issue is that this in of itself would break the game, so it's never gonna happen.

Premium -> collector tank

Nerf the collector tank

i miss old wot but its not coming back, but it sickens me that so many people have accepted the game for what it is.

wet quail
#

I don’t know why, what else can you do?

atomic hound
#

@quick lichen or so we thought. If wg was planning to do that to premiums to rebalance their game, they'd have done it already. Instead, they just sold their most overpowered tank again.

True, but look at the outrage that sparked from that tiny change to the t34. Nobody's calling that tank crazy overpowered.

quick lichen
#

Clearly it’s a balance

#

They pick the wrong tank and it’s an outrage

deft owl
#

no need to nerf premiums. Buff tech tree tanks.

quick lichen
#

Way more work

#

Wayyyyyy more work

atomic hound
#

Wouldn't work, just think about it. For example, the wz 120 1g ft does literally everything you ask of it. Buffing everything up to that level would ruin the variety completely.

orchid grove
#

They already tried that approach with tier VII. And tier VII is still a balance cesspool @deft owl

deft owl
#

@orchid grove That happened because they only tried to buff only tier 7. Op premiums are not only in tier 7.

violet sonnet
#

well tier6 thru 8 are affected by the problem of OP tier7

sullen vault
#

Especially t6

shut depot
#

Wz120 ft is way too op armour is troll as heck way too much camo and excellent gun it's impossible to win against it 1 vs 1 I really playing tier 8 now there is like wz 120 platoons and it ends up with the platoon doing 6k damage completely destroying the opponent team tier 7 tanks are useless against it is completely broken and they just decided to sell it again 😑😕

wet quail
#

Too bad

dusky oxide
#

Nothing new, nothing surprising

indigo knot
#

Well most the new premium tanks like wz120ft scorpion g wz112-2 252u....all of them are way better than the tech tree as well as better than the previous premiums ....so simply play Isu152 ....blast them with bl10....or Lowe ....its also Op....can go up against those new hts....bar wzft td.....it is tier 9 tank

violet sonnet
#

take durp guns for example ... starts with kv2 at tier6 affects tier 5 to 7. ... smasher then takes the baton and then affects to tier6-8
and tier7 gets both of these durp tanks that are then combined with SU-152 ..to make paper tanks like t20 which doesnt really have speed to run away. mediums like this (panther 1 from bushkas video) and couple more like these are pain to get thru for a climbing player

deft owl
#

Still however by nerfing op premiums balance can be done better. Since nerfing premium is not an possible option buffing tech tree is the only way.

@indigo knot I could use them but I was talking about grinding through tier 7 to 9 those tanks don't stand a chance

#

@charred bobcat Nothing wrong? So are you telling me angling in is-4 that makes you impenetrable which is okay? Is spamming prammo is okay?

ivory fractal
#

@unique scaffold English only here

charred bobcat
#

I never said that. You're implying that mediums should be able to butter angled heavy tanks FRONTALLY with AP rounds at leveled ground (town). Is the Leo using any of it's strengths to fight the IS4? No, it's not. There's nothiing wrong with that armor highlight. @deft owl
Also, I don't care if people spam premium ammo. They can choose to have damage drop off for some extra pen. Credits aren't an issue for me and all I play is tier 10. 🤷

deft owl
#

Is4 isnt suppose to bounce just by angling. Maus is.

wet quail
#

No one?

charred bobcat
#

Given the conditions that the Leo 1 is in town facing an angled IS4 head on, then yes it is. And for the record, I don't care that the IS4 has armor, but in my opinion, it should get a bit of a mobility nerf.

Obj 252u upper plate is stronger then is7. nominal armor thickness is 20mm less but efective armor is more due to better angle.

The only way the IS-7 can beat the 252U in a hug is by shooting cupola

But they’ll never meet each other 🤦🏼‍♂️

elfin heath

Don't hug the 252U. It had a rough childhood and may shank you. When will people figure out that there is more than one place to shoot a tank? The sides, rear, and the lower front plate are all vulnerable on the 252U. Don't rush head long at it.

Or use a tank that isn’t total crap. Bushka is right though. It’s pretty embarrassing when all of these real life tanks that brought people into the game are just demolished by fantasy tanks like helsings, Dracula’s, and smashers. It’s downright ridiculous and wargaming will never stop this nonsense. I realize that they need to make money, I really do understand. However, there must be a way to make a good profit without killing your game. They’ll stop making a profit in the long term if they don’t fix some things.

@wheat ferry >wanting to nerf grille 15
also you do realize other 15cm guns also do the same ammo rack damage (if not more) as the grille 15? why do you want to even nerf it in the first place. the grille is sad enough already
and also cent action x isnt even in the game yet so i have no clue what are you talking about

Talking about the grille, one thing i want to know is why the 75mm HE pen. Every single other 15cm gun gets better HE pen. KV2 with 86, waffle with 85, borsig with 85, Foch, 268, e3,e4 90mm of HE pen. the 263 with a 130mm gets 75mm of HE pen too. dont WG think that its a little sad that grille HE pen is so little? (#buffgrille)

lunar ruin

agreed

One doesn't need to play war thunder to get realistic gameplay there is nothing wrong with asking a little more realism in this game

Does anyone think that the STB1 deserves a buff of some kind. I played a few games in it and I think it’s mediocre in every aspect.

Buff the armour of the turret or maybe the mobility or the gun, I really don’t know. Just seems somewhat underpowered in its current state.

The T62a needs another buff? Buff number 4? 5? 😂

I’d like to see the STB get a little turret buff

STB could maybe (?) Use a little touch just to put it on par with the patton (or give the Patton a tiny nerf?)
The fv and Leo are both fine
I'd like to see the STB with the best view range, rather than joint best with the patton tbh. The Patton already has the turret, I don't see why it should have top view range too

The frontal armour is flat out better than the is3, for some reason it gets 7° of gun depression to better allow it to hide the hull anyway, and you're asking for a buff to it?

#

@noble chasm

queen mason
#

@civic halo The IS-3D isn’t meant for long range really. It’s a russian heavy tank with an autoloading gun so it’s obvious the aim wouldn’t be as good but if you were to buff it’s aim, that would completely unbalance the tank as it would have good decent or mid accuracy and good armor, also the armor on the is-3d is supposed to be like that so you can’t do anything about it unless wg does something.

civic halo
#

@queen mason hmmm. When’s last time you played it? Not asking for it to be buffed till broken. Looking for some parity. By slightly reducing dispersion, aim or load time — any of those, not all. Seriously there are some truly baffling misses and bounces. Anyway we’re in the realm of differing opinions, and I appreciate your thoughts. I’d like WG to take a look at its gun handling and front armor config.

queen mason
#

@civic halo I’ve never played the IS-3D but I can imagine in my head if I play it with a play style of passive, aggressive and a heavy. I can do some really good work in it, i’ve the IS-3 for example and it has no autoloader but shares the same traits and I can say it’s a little power creeped in terms of the gun but if you know how to play heavy tanks like me. I found it easy to play the IS-3D even without a real game in it.

Actually its just russion troll gun.. its perfectly balanced. No need to buff. (I have it and know what im talking about)

Very true that @quick lichen

These consumables should never have existed has been my position since I first heard about it months ago.

Nickace is known to be one of the best players in the game.

deft owl
#

Charioteer has crappy camo ratings.

haughty narwhal
#

@charred bobcat actually, that's not entirely true. If you looked at his stats in tier 8, even in the broken/OP Chinese TD (wz120), he only have 3k avg dmg. Then if you dive deeper and look around some more, you will notice that no other tank has a WR as close to that tank (98%). Closest one is (88% with 2.3k avg dmg) on Panther 2. So I just proved it from a "best player" comparing these stats to the rest of his tier 8s. Now if you watched the stream (and understand Russian), you would hear how much joy he gets from the OPness of the tank and he admits, "it's not broken /s"

So the picture actually has a point @clever void, but you fail you see it.

@teal olive Last time he played "crappy" T44 was in 2017... things were a bit different. But that still doesn't discredit how "great" of a tank that is.

And finally, don't get me wrong... I'm loving this new tier 8 machine. At least it gives me some satisfaction spanking all the pay to win WZ120 nubs and other tier 8/7 premium juke. It increased their butthurt that their $50 smasher or WZ is having difficulty keeping up with my free tank. So my verdict, leave it to keep the other OP trash in line. As more nubs figure out how to play against this tank, stats will even out. But no doubt the nerf hammer is brewing.

charred bobcat
#

Blaze WZ op too with his 98% win rate? I'm not saying Charioteer isn't OP, but your argument just isn't valid.

I fully agree with ur last point. I’m worried that they will nerf it by next update

Blaze WZ with 2.3k (slightly higher than avg unicum). If it was 98% WR with 2.9k dmg, then yeah it would be op. WR isn't too difficult to maintain at tier 7, esp with a toon.

Him, soloing tier 8 tank with highest wr and dmg for his tier 8s. Not sure what you're arguing then @charred bobcat

charred bobcat
#

Ufpnjh can 4k average in the AMX 30 B, is that tank OP? No it's not. He just knows how to exploit the tank in a way that regular unicums can't. You can't use the highest tier player to determine if a tank is "OP". That is why WG uses data from 55-65% players, not the 70%+ players.

really!? ARe u sure ur not just seeing the -+ 5 change now? With this in mind Im finding that The IS-5 has much better armour on its front upper plate then usual

haughty narwhal
#

Sure I can. Ufpnjh, or Ivan, averages 4k in many tier X tanks, even higher in some. So the fact that he has 4k in the 30B means that that tank is on par for the tier. If he avg 4.5k with stupid high WR, I would say it's broken. But when Nickace, can't avg 3.5k with 98% in any other tank in tier 8, esp the WZ120, that just goes to show how OP it is.

Compare apples to apples, not apples to oranges. Then you'll catch the point my friend.

charred bobcat
#

I don't think you understand my point. Ufpnjh can do 4k in the AMX 30 B, but a regular unicum could hardly get 2.8k in it. A regular unicum can do 3.2k in an Obj.268 while Ufpnjh can do 4k in it. You're using the top 0.0001% of the playerbase to determine if a tank is "balanced" or not.

The Charioteer is madly Overpowered. The gun is just taken from a T10 derp tank, it can have .12 accuracy the DPM is 3.2k with APCR which is damn fast, teh HESH is brutal, over 3.8k dpm, you can be protected vs HE in a lightly armored tank, its fairly mobile, it has 70% camo value... in the few games i have played, i got two masterys and im over 3.5k avg. i would normally have that on t9s or T10s.

@twilit crystal yeah the thing counters everything. It makes all other tier 8 tds irrelevant. The whole idea with these British turreted tds is that they have HE pennable armor: the spall liner just counters HE which makes them extremely hard to counter effectively. @iron lynx apparently it has bad camo but it is just too good. Unlike the grille, it can take HE shells better with the spall liner and has a 360 degree turret

What in the World.. WHy is the charioteer so Broke. Not only does it have powers That give It a Literal advantage over other Tanks. But on top of all that it's got a crazy HE pen, rate of Fire, and traverse speed, that you can't circle it. It's more like a medium tank than a turreted Td. And with The mad game's level powers it has it's more op that anything. I think it should be Modeled more of the t-25/2, it's quick but it's turret traverse is.'t to good. A much lower rate of fire and Decreased HE pen Should be the way to go. There shouldn't be a tank that can pen Heavies Frontally with HE, with that rate of fire, It's just Ridicules.

You don't need 2 repair kits on anything really, except some Chinese tanks that lose a module every other hit (like the t34-3)

“Decrease the traverse speed by -6” so +6? Also are there other attributions that make it better than the other? After seeing that it increases terrain resistance, reduces aiming time, they just seem to be design related for better speed and stability but worse traverse

@unique scaffold Charioteer shreds mediums with its 210 hesh pen, not the WZ and IS tanks. The only thing about it that counters those tanks are its insane camo.

I suggest the Panther I should receive the following changes:

Aim time:
Buff to 2.01 seconds, same as the Sherman Firefly

Gun depression:
Buff to -8 degrees, same as the Panther II with the same gun and very similar stock turret

Terrain resistance:
Buff to 0.9 / 1.2 / 1.5, same as the Panther mit 8,8 cm L/71

Hull traverse:
Buff to 45 degrees / second

(Note: All values are without any provisions.)

This would solve the Panther I's problems, IMO. More gun depression is a big improvement.

Charioteer needs nerf, should be slower, less penetration on hesh, lower traverse speed. Conway hesh to 550 dmg, is shooting too fast. Consumables makes them op.

Bushka is okay though, it's just the majority of pro's aren't Youtubers too

Panther just doesn’t fit the meta- armor isn’t reliable, gun dep isn’t superb, and alpha is too low. The pen is better than most tier 8 mediums and the APCR is tier X med level AP/APCR so no issue there. DPM is pretty solid and outpaces tier 8 meds again (though not hard to do). We just need bigger maps where its dispersion could be a real advantage. 🤷‍♂️ It chafes me a bit that it has to have the silly L/100 vaulting pole for a gun too, but obviously cosmetic

After this channel has stopped ranting about charioteer being op(which honestly, it is), can we also agree that grille 15 needs some love? Like literally supposedly the most campy tank has crap camo for TDs to begin with, worst AP pen for tier X TDs, and a holyshititsbad 75mm of HE pen. Like why. Every single other 15cm gun gets better HE pen. KV2 with 86, waffle with 85, borsig with 85, Foch, 268, e3,e4 90mm of HE pen. the 263 with a 130mm gets 75mm of HE pen too. dont WG think that its a little sad that grille HE pen is so little?

Most tds dont need that high of precision though.

@mild kindle maybe a Cano buff, but it's fine

what about HE pen? just give it 85mm of HE pen. all other 15cm guns get higher pen. plus the precision is only to make you feel better about that 279 pen of yours, which is bad

The charioteer hesh pen should have been around 185-190mm while the ap pen should have been around 260mm.....many tier 8 lights and meds have around 180-190 pen on there standard rounds.....and dpm should be nerfed to around 3150 while keeping the same mobility accuracy and camo rating.....the problem with the WG is they over do the nerfs on tanks and the tank becomes trash

I mean like, the playstyle is just so different than the most of turreted TD's, i think imo its just better than Hellcat (or maybe Helsing, but who knows). Only obvious minuses are just armor (thin=HE magnet) and slow hull/turret traverse (means hit & run when brawling, not circling a target)

Wg overdid the spall liner on everything but the tier 10 (which I can somewhat accept because it's so huge).
The German turreted TDs are even more paper than the British ones, but no spall liner for them, and nor should they have one, otherwise what's the point in having no armour at all as a weakness?

young vault
#

Didnt they say that the new consumables might be added to other tanks later on?

twilit crystal
#

i mean i dont really shoot HE at the grille except at close. Without spall lienr you could snapshot 4005

atomic hound
#

The spall liner is a provision, not a consumable, and these new consumables are an utterly stupid idea that wg should never have implemented. Why not give the most experienced players (with more credits) an even bigger advantage (like myself, but I see the issue). Great idea.
It also means that every 75s you can tip any 1v1 encounter massively in your favour just by pressing a button, e.g. the charioteer out-accelerates the German bulldog when it uses its speed boost, or the fv4005 can unload 1380 alpha in 4.2s, quick enough that any non-autoloader can't even reload in time for a second shot, even with adrenaline. I fail to see how this makes the fv4005 much different to the 183 that wg deliberately tried to avoid by not giving it a 183mm gun, but it actually unloads more in a single clip than the average HESH shell, so if one of these things rushes you (with that stupid speed boost, good luck escaping) you take more than if a 183 had rushed you (and the 183 is slow enough to easily avoid)
If wg has to 'balance' these tanks without additional stupid advantages that it gives them (the charioteer would be broken anyway though) then they aren't doing their job right.

If they're making these consumables, limit them to mad games, where they belong, and where nobody cares about winning or losing. Get rid of the spall liner entirely on all but the fv4005, or even better, nerf it to 10% HE reduction, and replace the extra armour equipment option with it on all tanks that have no armour at all.

twilit crystal
#

whats wrong with an autoloader dumping dmg faster than a non autoloader?. The autoloader adrenaline is perfectly fine.Again I fail to see why regular tanks get adrenaline but autoloaders cant have their own version. My only problem is t57 and amx not getting it. The Top speed consumable is pretty op I admit. I dont mind the accuracy consumable tho. I also have a massive problem with the spall liner which is p2w

hollow horizon
#

😂 so i take it some of u dont like the new tds

atomic hound
#

How about the fact that it can also move like a medium when you press a button. Wg designed this tank to have a 3s interclip time so as not to unload too quickly, this was a balance point if I remember correctly. Then they ruined it with an idiot consumable. @twilit crystal

Autoloaders already have very high damage over a short period of time, they don't need the adrenaline. A consumable to reduce the clip reload I could accept. Not something that makes a tank deal 1380 damage before an adrenalined t62a can fire twice.

@sweet remnant don't talk about irl when discussing wot. If you wanna think about that, tell me how autoloader adrenaline makes any sense at all.

The dispersion consumable is the least objectionable of the 3 new ones, but still seems somewhat overcooked on the fv4005 due to it recieving the boost over all 3 shells, compared to over one or two on the others.

sweet remnant
#

@atomic hound don't get me wrong, but Borsig is not tank where you'll install spall liner irl. It makes sense for closed up tanks where crew is not exposed. However, I will accept new modifications if are for all tanks, not just one branch. If you have reload boost, give it to all autoloaders. Same with dispersion boost. Give it to all TDs, some of them are bad for long distances and it will make them much better and worthy.

Either give it to all tanks or non of them. That IMHO will be fair... apart of being in consumable which doesn't make sense.

charred bobcat
#

Disperion boost consumble to all tds? Lol what? Yeah why not have tds that can snapshot right?

atomic hound
#

The fact that it isn't on any huge alpha TDs is the only reason it isn't utterly broken at the moment (I'm looking at you 183). Luckily nobody bothers with it on most things because the speed boost is so ridiculous.

sweet remnant
#

@charred bobcat correct... so rather don't put it in game at all...

If you look at normal consumables and modifications they seems like a little boost to something... the new ones are just like too good to be true... actually they feel like something straight out of Mad Games

twilit crystal
#

Id nerf dispersion to 20%. REmove speed boost but autoloader adrenaline is fine. Autoloaders are generally weaker anyway than most normal tanks. See t57 heavy

charred bobcat
#

I assume they only added the consumables to the next Brit tds because they're huge and have no armor (the tier 9 and 10). They want to even the playing field by adding the consumables but not making it last the duration of the battle. I think they need to make it not cost anything and tone down the buffs of the consumables.

atomic hound
#

They're buffing the t57 and 50b, and preceding tanks. They don't need the adrenaline in that form. Make it reduce clip reload time if you need it at all. Autoloaders deal damage fast enough already, any faster is ridiculous. Hell, the fv4005 can unload faster than a lot of tanks can aim at it (and it's huge)

@charred bobcat I agree. (Charioteer needs an urgent nerf though)

@void mortar nothing to do with balance 🤔 hmm true patchnotes state: edit

IMHO everyone should 😃 ... So let's balance that mechanics. But I think they should work on this as well. Take dmg when you get hit by something but if it's on top it should depend on your load limit. If you can support that weight, you shouldn't get any dmg...

I dont know which i dislike the most; one line of tanks having ridiculous consumables/provisions or every tank having them so it becomes mad games and wg dev team can have an even bigger problem in balancing the game.

@dusky oxide I see clearly a solution... remove them 😃

dusky oxide
#

Probably the second one. I dont think "dynamic" aspects should be forced into the game like that. They should come from map desings and tech trees that allow players to experiment with stuff. Most importantly for something to be dynamic it needs to be fair and not make a tank that is supposed to be situational less vulnerable when it should be vulnerable.
The simpler the core gameplay elements of a game are, the more fluently strategy and skill translate to results and noticeable improvement of a player.
This just feels glued/taped on and a team thought it would be a good idea because of the popularity of mad games.

I just don’t get how they gave these new tds spall liner without thinking of the grille. The grille is almost just as big height wise as the fv4005. Idk it seems like it’s making the other auto loaders irrelevant in the sense that if u want unload time, clip reload, and alpha then u would just drive the fv4005. It makes the other auto loaders just not as good. Which is probably y they r buffing those lines tiers 8-10

Even on paper it was clearly obscenely broken just looking at the gun stats. The mobility is just the final nail in the coffin. Well done wg on proving that you can't balance tanks.

@visual nimbus believe me, T28 is ineffective vs tier VII, VIII and IX : no armor, no HP, no, durability, no accuracy, can be put on fire easely, the engine can be destroy in one shot, very slow, BIG weakspots and especially... This tank is literally CURSED by the RNG

#

@summer mist it’s in need of a buff to be relevant I’d agree. Front armor is not bad. But sides and back are nonexistent along with the nonexistent mobility means its generally an entirely irrelevant tank to the battle.

flat zephyr

T28 is a decent sniper. Good accuracy, great DPM and quite well armored and tough to pen at long ranges but the tank overall might be underpowered

Type needs better gun stats to be the perfect blend of medium. Too bad its already at the top of the charts in terms of t8 meds.

flat maple

all it need is a dpm and desperation buff

summer mist
#

@flat zephyr, i'm sorry, but NO.
the T28 has absolutly no accuracy, and i know what i'm saying : 50m, 100m, 200m + full aim = touched nothing
And the armor is useless for tier VIII, the LĂśwe can penetrate without gold and all TDs too and they dont need to aim.
This is a real pain to play it.
The only factor that can be counted as an advantage is LUCK and nothing else.
To be more clear, WG should take exemple on the T28 in WoT PC because it's very more efficient than the Blitz version

nimble zodiac
#

T28 is good, T28 Proto is good if you use cover and dance a bit. You don’t have to spend time sitting there aiming if you don’t wanna be hit, just try and make players miss your weak spot. Löwe also has high-end penetration at 234mm and a very accurate gun, which makes it one of the worst head-on threats to armored TDs

I’ve played for 4 yrs 9000 games. Today I found my first live chat. Today I learned tank shadows aren’t shadows, they show weak spots. I finally found the right YouTube videos to watch. Suggestion: I’m sure others are experiencing the lonely grind I have. Lots of money in the game. About $2,000. Keep finding ways to easily show people how to find resources to help them, and people to ask questions with. I assume this chat is brand new. I would have done anything to know this stuff. Really, tanks highlight weak spots ? Who would have known. I’ve offered several players real money over the years to teach me. I’d have paid hundreds! Nobody believed me I guess. So, one question? Can you actually talk to anyone about this game? Not text, but talk? I’d love to help those people who don’t know this stuff!

Will the chieftain T95 ever get a buff to that HUGE cupola on top? It is autopen for even HE, and kind of negates rhe whole point of the tank, which is playing hull down... It is too reliable right now IMHO. At least it would do better with a cupola that was easier to pen on flat terrain but stronger or hidden when hull down. Like, a cupola the size of the one on the Tiger P would be more balanced. With it being so huge, today I snapshot it 2 times in a row even driving the Obj252u, which has horrible gun handling, and T49s can pen it with HE across the map lol 😂

@bleak mason it would become very unbalanced if they did that

The 'premium consumables/provision' makes it actually a very deadly tank.

No it wouldn't. You choose between the top gun with terrible DPM and gun handling Vs the stock gun, which is better, with still poor dpm and bad pen (at least it's accurate).
The tank itself is huge and has zero armour, so the question of why you'd ever play the challenger over a comet springs to mind, since the comet is better in every way that matters.

Why on the game the aim time of the T-34-2 and T-34-3 is not 1 like it is said on Blitz hangar but is like, 2.3, even with all the dedicated provisions? If I am not mistaken, those tanks for WG boasted unique and shortest aim time of their peers, caliber-wise. Well, where is that 1 aim time?

they do its just not shown

i think its the worst possible scenario that the in game stats are showing

@atomic hound to grind the tank 😹

unique scaffold
#

In the game the aim time parameter is shown, but the value is, with all the provisions and equipments I put, 2.3. Can someone report this to be fixed? I picked the T-34-3 because I tried it on a friend's account and it's very fun after all, but I expected the aim time circle to be much smaller if the value was 1. Turns out it isn't, and that is the characteristics WG claimed to be so good in that tank, since it sports a 122 mm gun, and the reason i picked it, since I watched it's characteristics on several sites. So, WG will acknowledge this and fix it?

humble spear
#

the aim time of the T-34-3 is already excellent

unique scaffold
#

But every site reports the value to be one not corresponding. So, either every site corrects this mistake or WG has to fix the tank aim time to that value, because it's misinformation, and aim time it's a selling point for that tank. It's not even balance, just misinformation, to be fixed from one or the other side

121b Chinese med needs a HE buff. In WoT it has HEP 110 penetration due to having the British gun. In blitz it has HEP shells with only 60 pen and worse Alpha than the 100mm T62a line. The HEP pen should be 80-100mm pen and the alpha 440

rigid chasm
#

Yeah, currently the credit coefficient is 90%. It's just painful to go in a battle...I constantly lose 10.000 to 26.000 credits. It's kind of frustrating, but eh. 121B is fun nonetheless, and it's one good tank if you know how to use it.

And, yes, the gun is kinda weak

vague pine
#

@hardy heron this tank is well balanced so why you are complaining

hearty hawk
#

I think they need just a little faster fire rate

humble spear
#

The 121b has a good turret and pretty decent hull protection. Aim time is also really short, so exposure when attempting to peek to take a shot is really low. It shouldn't get a HE buff and basically toss the 4202 into the garbage bin

hardy heron
#

@vague pine because the t62a HE has higher alpha? The whole point of the 121b is the l7c British gun known for HEP and Hesh so if it has lower alpha and only 53pen then its HE isn't right. Look at the l7b gun on the fv4202 why does it have 440 / 105 mm. @humble spear why should the HE alpha be lower than the t62a? Remember the 121b has a 105mm gun.

vague pine
#

Ok maybe it’s credit coefficient needs a buff because it’s a premium. Now to you@hardy heron look at the leopard 1 gun it’s the improved version of the British royal ordnance l7 gun but it has 400 alpha and also 53 HE pen exactly like the 121b and both tanks are very good and competitive tanks which I definitely recommend so don’t cry just because you can’t play tanks

humble spear
#

Because it's a balancing factor? I already told you why the 121b is already good as it is. It shouldn't just be buffed for absolutely no reason other than an inconsistency in gun calibers. Doing so will literally just make the FV4202 less competitive than it already is, since it is the only Tier X MT with 105 basic HESH pen. Even tanks like the M48, M60, Leopard 1, and even the STB-1 have 400 HE dmg and 53 pen. They all used licensed versions of the 105mm Royal Ordnance gun.

vague pine
#

@humble spear just my words yo don’t copy me 😁 but the FV 4202 isn’t less competitive too other mediums in fact it is a great tank which marks a very unique playstyle with its hesh ammo under the medium tanks

humble spear
#

Eh copy? What?
The reason why the leo 1 has more dpm is because it has no armour to speak of, and the aimtime is still less than the amazing 1.36s of the 121b

hardy heron

Buff the dam panther 2 it’s a pathetic excuse for a tier 8

I personally would never like Charioteer to get camo nerf though hesh pen nerf to around 180mm and rate of fire nerf (dpm almost on equal levels to scorpion with AP rounds) is needed ....while its standard AP pen should be buffed to 260 afterall many will be using calibrated shells to buff its hesh pen and these will not create any pen problems at tier 9 as most tds have there premium rounds....turreted tds in blitz always have had less dpm than the non turreted ones

They can always do silence nerf. Like rng for dmg and pen. That's what happened with is3d.. cheiftan, and even some tech tree tanks that always low roll below their average dmg (183, grille, e5, 113)

again EU law> some medium sized company EULA. Eu consumer protection rights are stronk

Even if you bought a smasher, drac, Helsing, Keni Otsu etc, you have gotten plenty of value out of your purchase if you use them regularly. You paid for an op af tank and you got exactly that. At some point, WG has to think about game balance

#

They could come out with a policy for premiums to be converted into collector tanks one year after their initial launch

Well with the outcome of this new realistic battle I think they could have came out with something a lot better concept. My grandmother could have made a better concept in this but know what are we got a concept that came from a two year old that doesn't even know how to play the game great work work even more boring to add to this game well this is either going to bring you weigh down or keep you in the middle.

Hi guys. I have one problem, and I would like to hear some developers or just to hear some different thoughts. So, it's mostly about tier 8. Right now it's slightly out of balance. Problem is, after introduction of new tanks, older premium tanks become obsolete. Mainly is5, is6. Don't trust me? Jump in is6 and try to carry your team. Hidden stats for gun is just bad (compared to 252u for example) not to mention armor. So, my question is, will we see some rebalance in tier 8? Or this is just a new way for wg to force us to buy new tanks. Also about Chatioteer, I got it, it's done with purpose, so people will trow money at game just to get this tank as fast as possible. But don't you think that this is... A little bit too much?

@tropic radish I dragged my IS-6 out during the VK 100.01(P) heyday- I use the DPM gun, I didn’t have a problem winning with over 2k AVG Damage in it - it is a fantastic tank if you play it’s strengths.

#

@somber mauve right now Blitzstars only has 604 players listed for the Charioteer. Sure Unicums are going to dominate in it - not much difference than any tank - but since it is paper it’s going to get plastered when mistakes are made. Also If you don’t know how to use HESH it’s not a very good tank. Plus personally I like the fact it can wail on WZ-120-1G-FT’s so from that perspective alone I don’t want it nerfed.

WZ 120 TD tank is like Ke Ni Otsu, never nerfed even being so troll. I don't like this WG policy. I agree on balance the tanks in the game, some are better and some are meh, but when a tank is so blatantly OP it deserves a rebalance

I hate you wargaming. For nerfing the Luchs like taking my little baby tank of the tree wasn't good enough. They even nerfed the traverse worse than it was already

@unique scaffold I don't know about 2k dmg but I have seen many who are 40%er but have 55-60% WR in it and have over 1000 games in it

Charioteer is a high ceiling tank not a noob proof tank like wzft or 252u .....I have played both Charioteer and wzft and I would still say wzft is more OP than it

unique scaffold
#

That demonstrates two things: WZ is OP indeed, noobproof to the extreme, so troll bouncing, impossible to flank even with lights and meds, and that judging players for wr is not always correct. I am almost 47% but because I lost many battles 3 years ago when I had 40% and no clue of how to play properly. Now I can define myself a good player but the victories I get can only balance my previous defeats, even having some skill. On the other hand I see often total monkeys having 50 or 60% wr

If you see a 60%er being stupid it's either they seal clubbed hard or just had a crappy game

Ur right. I already posted to the right thread.
Regarding the vehicle balance I have to note that the T15 (tier 3) needs to be buffed. Pen and damage. It has the lowest pen in its tier. Moreover, if you need apcr the damage is 20hp per shot while all other vehicles have at least 30. Try to face 2 Matilda’s and one M7 in a battle

grizzled sleet
#

20HP? A shot? That is absolutely worthless

drowsy plaza
#

It’s an auto loader

#

In tier 3...

#

@lean shard you won’t find a lot of sympathy from many of us here about folks complaining about low tier issues. The goal isn’t to make OP tanks at low tier so new players can be repeatedly Clubbed by experienced players stat padding by Seal Clubbing

#

The T-15 APCR is 74 Pen. At tier 3...

#

The 2J has 45mm of Pen on APCR for 7 dmg.

Does anyone find the maps are getting stale? I’d like to see a shakeup of the bases. Make in encounter the base closer to one team. In supremacy move around the a b c (d) bases. Would this make the teams more aggressive more defensive. Different tactics or just some more down right craziness 🤪

Something i would very much like to see added (not really a balance thing but a suggestion) would be the ability to see the directional arrows of ally tanks.

There have been alot of cases where people seem to get clogged up and then proceed to just repeatedly run into each other as their intents arent clear.

All of the necessary textures are in game so i dont think it would be TOO difficult to add and while it is a minor thing i think it could make a MASSIVE difference.

RE: Balancing of German tanks - Suggestion for WG

Several German tanks in Blitz have had their gun depression ‘nerfed’ compared to their PC WoT counterparts.

Gun Depression:

Panther I : WoT -8 / Blitz -6
VK 45.02 A : WoT -8 / Blitz -6
Tiger II : WoT -8 / Blitz -7
Lowe : WoT -10 / Blitz -8
Leopard PTA : WoT -8 / Blitz -6

(This issue does not affect any Russian tanks, of course.)

In Blitz:
the Kuro Mori Mini is the closest thing to the historical Tiger I
the VK 30.02 (M) is the closest thing to the historical Panther
the VK 45.03 is the closest thing to the historical Tiger II

I would like to see:

the VK 30.02 (M) get the Panther I's hull armour - but also get the Panther I's stock engine, and 3 tons more weight
the VK 45.03 get the Tiger II's hull armour - but also get the Tiger II's stock engine, and 3 tons more weight
the above gun depression inconsistencies fixed

I think Jgpz E100 is already balanced as it is. If you need the HE buff so much then your only choice is to run calibrated shells. It will give you 94 HE pen but this of course will sacrifice your reload time.

So basically u guys are saying its logical to give 15cm equal HE pent to 17cm ..... it's a bit off for me and personally HE buff wudnt impact a lot ... just easier to use gun and more logical shots as big caliber = greater pen ..... it wudnt hv been a big buff but ofc some players wud complain but #opinions so..... this is mine ......
E100 = HE =85mm (15cm)
Jg.pze100= HE= 85mm (17CM)

Grille is way bad now ...some good players can make it work but the tank is big has no armour traverse is bad and if you make a bad play even a little you get harshly punished for it ....though the gun is one of the best but why play Grille when you can snipe better with Obj268 which has 25mm better pen on AP and around 50mm on heat with best camo value at tier 10 and has troll armour with gun dep and is versatile and .299 are not bad dispersion nos when fully equipped....(even E3 has better camo rating than Grille)....the turret turning and traverse bloom is way big in grille (many times one need to snapshot in it)

However, I believe bringing more consumables such as the ones you recently implemented could be a big mistake, not just from a gameplay standpoint but from a balancing standpoint. Blitz standard battles wouldn’t just start to play like a second mad games mode, these consumables would also be difficult to deal with from a balancing perspective. Each nation and line would likely have their own consumables in time, and they’d all have to be balanced accordingly. I understand that these consumables and the new provision were brought in to give these new TDs an edge in battle, but what happens when every single tank/line has a different consumable(s) in the game? It’d be chaotic, not just for us players in battle. But it’d be chaotic and messy to balance out.

I dont understand why wacky consumables cant be kept in mad games mode where they belong. Why risk the integrity of the most played mode when you can have access to the chaotic but fun environment once in a while.

I agree with @teal olive but I also think that the new consumables dont bring much in terms of variety to the game, they just allow a situational tank to be less vulnerable and more effective in situations where it shouldnt be those things.
Furthermore the game seems to be complicated enough when half the players i see dont even know what role their tank should fulfill. Keep the core game mechanics as they are since they need to be simple. Simple enough for player skill to translate to effective results and fun gameplay and simple enough to be easy to balance. If a wider range of the new consumables become the new norm it will be a nightmare to balance.

Or is the point to push things so far that the game is so chaotic that balancing wont be something to worry about?

To me, the new consumables dont add anything dynamic either. They seem forced and superglued on. They skew the line between knowing how hard to push your tank near the line where it almost falls apart and you die and just having a pre-installed advantage for certain situations.

The thing I'd most dislike would be for these kind of arcade elements to be available for other lines as well. Just because Mad games are popular doesnt mean these things would work as an addition in the main random battle mode. There's a reason stats arent affected by mad games.

#

I do appreciate making a survey about it very much though. As long as the fact that what players see as interesting might not be the smartest thing to add is kept in mind. For example the request to add japanese heavies remains a popular comment in most WotB social media posts but we all know they dont fit in the game.

I kind of agree with you but I would still like if spaw liner was added as a provision.....would help low armoured tanks like Sp1c rhm Grille WtPz4 Ru

New british td line is OP because of these consumables. The only way to balance this line is to give these special consumables to tanks like Grille Wt auf Pz IV rhm ru and etc, or remove these consumables. Fv can literally carry the game on its own without team help.

@noble siren then HE may aswell not exist, lol. But I think it is fair for something like the new FV, considering it has grille armor with less mobility and a muuuuuch larger profile... and I definitely don’t think it should be included for fast little light tanks.

hearty cliff
#

Would it be reasonable to expect a Chieftain/T95 buff in the near future? The big weak spot on the turret makes hulldown tactics impossible, the low alpha+low pen combo isn't great either

noble siren

Instead to make 1300 damage with jgE100 i make 800 what's the point of the HE. Then give it to Grille too.

dusky oxide
#

@indigo knot I get the sp1c but I think thats the last thing the WTPz4 needs. That tank can and is played so statically that when it gets caught out it should get punished. Also I think a high alpha tank should either be very slow or have no armor just because high alpha allows for less time exposing. There shouldnt be a consumable to change those vulnerabilities when TDs already benefit so much from equipment and the high amount of them in teams.

#

@dusky oxide I don't agree with you on this high alpha also means low rate of fire and can be punished when on reload ....most of them are Tds and can be circled easily....most of the tanks in Grille lines and a few in Leo1 line are made to be bullied if the provision line spawliner is added to just increase that little bit of HE resistance then it is not that wrong to be added...after all it is not the case that they will bounce but just they are not punished massively by the HE shells ....while I am talking about the tank lines not just a single tank and I know WtPz4 is OP but rest of the line bad compared to its counterparts and if you are giving spawliner to others in line you can't not do like let not give Wtpz4 spawliner coz it is OP

dusky oxide
#

@indigo knot Well is 183 balanced because of its low rof? Tanks dont just stare at each other on flat ground like on armor inspector. They hide during reloads and stay at a distance in a real game environment.

And just because one tank gets an advantage that in this case makes the better than their counterparts doesnt mean some certain tanks should also get it. Imagine if is7 was buffed to match the is4 just because the other was better. Is it fair for a more armored med that doesnt benefit from the HE resistence perk to do less HE dmg to a TD like the WTpz4?

Even if a tank is easily circled doesnt it mean it gets countered easily. Theres many TDs that can be circled easily but not many meds/lights can get close enough in real battles when theres 3 high alpha TDs sitting in cover together. A lot of high tier med players dont even realize to flank in their meds/lights.

How exactly is the Conway's 120mm gun balanced? Or the whole tank in general?

For me it is just a bit more sluggish Charioteer but it has 515 alfa HESH and 400 alfa AP. Oh and it reloads 6.7 seconds👀. It is extremely accurate with great pen which are the two things I most adore this thing for. It feels crazy good but I don't mean to appear that I'd moan about it, I just question the balancing for this line.

Loved each and everyone of these tanks so far and I hope that the T10 won't be an exception.

I believe there should be a turret buff for the AMX-50 B (Obviously not like E3 impenetrable). Most of the turret front is around 85-90mm so maybe a buff to make it around 120mm would be nice.

quick violet
#

That wouldn't make a difference its already 150 mm thick. It does get some troll bounces the way it is now too. Plus it would be really OP if it had a reliable turret with 10° gun depression and an autoloader.

indigo ice
#

Ah I was expecting someone to mention about that "150mm." Please check on armor inspector, that the top part (20ish% of turret front) of the armor is 150mm, it's an extremely small part of the front, below that though is around 85-95mm, which can be HE penned in some cases. And like I said before, I don't want "E3 hull impenetrable" turret armor, or something like the chieftan mk. 6. I just want all the turret armor, to actually have a somewhat near amount of the stated turret armor values (says 150mm but really means 90mm)And no, it will not be OP, I'd say effective armor of turret with full 10 degrees of gun dep. should be 200-220mm (tier 9-10 pen will still most likely go through) I'm not asking for a kranvanh (or whatever the tier 9-10 swedish heavies on PC), just armor good enough to not get HE penned from the front. And maybe some more bounces. (Also "troll bounces" argument can literally be used on every tank unless RHM-Grille15, that would be absorption from track/gun)

nimble zodiac
#

What about T57 Heavy tho

orchid grove
#

@indigo ice not everything needs to have armor. A 50 B shouldn’t need to have armor, and actually, the 50 B on Blitz has decent enough armor already, enough to troll a couple bounces with the mantlet. What 50 B really needs is more mobility to properly differentiate itself.

Also, I’ve never been frontally HE penned in the 50 B, except by premium HESH shells

thick rover
#

Well I think 57 heavy and 50B are differentiated by speed and armour, one has more speed for less armour one has less speed but sort of good turert armour?

@dense walrus caveat 1) I don’t have it. 2) Everyone I saw play it was a fantastic player already. It’s got no turret - so it’s going to be limited to your team to a point - even though it’s a monster when hulldown - it’s pretty soft if flanked.

Not all that relating to balance but after playing the badger it is evident to me it performs like a better tortoise and WG really should have made it a tech tree tank to replace the 183 or at least sit alongside it.

Only thing which I don’t like about the badger is the slow traverse, a buff to that would be nice but it would probably make the tank unbalanced.

@fiery flame what are your thoughts about Badger.... better E3 and OP or a well balanced ....you have played it so wanted to ask you
I have heard mixed opinion about this tank but personally I feel in pub battles it is gonna be OP as many don't know how to aim

fiery flame
#

@indigo knot The armour is pretty much impenetrable if you are using gun depression and hiding the lower plate, but the armour is quite easy to pen on flat ground.

The gun is very nice, 8 sec reload for 460 alpha with decent pen, 10 degrees of gun depression and also very accurate, no complaints here.

The speed is what ultimately balances the tank, the traverse is awful, less than tortoise I think, and the top speed is only 30. If mediums or heavies or anything which isn’t a T95 decided to circle you u dead.

I think it’s a very nice tank and when comparing it to the E3 I wouldn’t say it’s much better, I have played both and they are both just as strong.

My best game in it so far was a 1 vs 3 (IS7, Waffle and JgE100) I was hull down and there was nothing they could do to me while I shredded them with the dpm on this thing

viscid elk
#

how did u get that

teal olive

I believe the badger will entirely replace the T110E3 in terms of competitiveness... it is so much better in just about every way. And I have no problem with tier ten premiums because I figured WG would sell them at one point, but I feel like the badger is just too good compared to the others. This tank could be a gateway for pay to win meta from tier eight entering tier ten.

121b > 121 in its usefulness now im hearing Badger > e3 we can argue Chieftain is more useful than Fv-215b all these tanks are "enriched" so fear of balance is out there. Honestly things might get silent (soft stats nerf) but all in all no hard number adjustments will be made to a tank that you BUY

no complaining here, just noting what I see. obv. not a 100% truth .... would be much much better for the game if these pay-to-play tanks did NOT compete directly with the roles of tech tree variants.

E3 is definitely better than the Badger, E3 has much better alpha, pen, gun handling, armor, and more mobility. All Badger has is more DPM and gun depression. Honestly, even the test version of Badger was worse than E3, let alone the severely nerfed release version

@safe canopy Badger has a speed limit of 30 compared to E3’s 35, has worse traverse, and does not nearly have enough p/w ratio to compensate. Also, Badger has .26/.26 gun handling compared with E3’s .2/.2. .26/.26 is HORRIFIC. That’s literally IS-5 levels of gun handling. Only KV-2 and Grille have worse. Also, @fringe summit the Badger only has up to 370mm effective armor, down to ~340 in the cheeks. It doesn’t matter that the E3 has a hatch that can be penned by heavy/TD gold when the entire front of the Badger can be penned by the same shells. On top of this, Badger’s upper hull can be spammed with HE which will splash into the thin roof armor causing significant damage. Moreover, the Badger’s gun sits really low, barely above its lower plate weakspot. This makes hiding the lower plate difficult, since the slightest mistake will expose the lower plate to the enemy, whereas E3’s gun sits comfortably higher making going hulldown much easier

safe canopy
#

facts. E3 doesnt reach it top speed, while badger may have way worse dispersion on the move it still has the better overall dispersion and aim time and as u see better hp/t and just 1 degree less traverse while having way way better armor in the sides (101mm) behind the tracks which is so much more comfortable than the e3's 44mm, Im just glad its not a flat out replacement for the e3 they both have their usage

I snapped a shot in 268 with heat on badger ... though I use calibrated shells on 268

imo e3 is better than badger. e3 has more armor, badger can still be penned if not in depression, plus if someone is above you can go trough ezly, E3 is closely totally HE proof in hulldown, badger is not.

im just happy th ebadger was nerfed from test. We didn't need a niche tank required for some maps in t10 tourneys

#

Having played the Badger. I can tell you that the dispersion and aim time don’t mean squat because Badger needs to constantly take shots after moving. Poor gun arc means you have to traverse a lot, and low speed/low alpha means you need to constantly move into new positions to take shots. Also, the 30km/h speed limit is incredibly limiting, whereas E3 can and will hit its top speed on flat ground and downhill. And the armor just doesn’t work as well as E3’s armor. Hiding the lower plate is much harder, and Badger can be penned even when hull down; also the lower plate won’t get the same kind of bounces E3’s will. I won’t deny Badger is a good tank, but it’s just not as good as E3 in the slow fortress TD role

@grave bear the Badger’s armor wasn’t touched at all; they just nerfed the DPM by like 400, the p/w, and the gun handling

grave bear
#

Pre nerf badger was horribly OP, badger in -10 degrees now has same armor values as Badger pre nerf in flat ground, but badger pre nerf also had 300mm lower plate and better bloom
pretty sure badger will be totally useless in tours, Just put IS-4 in his stead... done.... if you want better gun depression take e3 and you also have more alpha.,
