Buff Vindicaror from 2 to 6 Degree's of gun depression. Give's it 250 pen on the prem Heat and 88 on the HE. then It would be just perfect

It needs no buff

It’s really bad, big box with -2 of gun depression and no side armor. Only good part about it is the nice dpm and the fact that it has protection against HEAT frontally. But that’s it. Not to mention HEAT is it’s standard ammo so can’t shoot through a fence 🤡🤡🤡

Buff wz 120 gun dep to 4-6 and buff charioteer dpm by a little and buff challengers alpha and traverse and aim time please all those really need improvements also buff amx 30 1er HE dmg avrg to 350-400 i always do less dmg with HE on that tank then ap might be a bug or something?...

no buffing already buffed tanks nor bufffing ok performing tanks

#

Charioteer needs an aim time buff, not some expensive crp consumable that makes 2 shots aim fast for like 6k credits. Wz-120 should have 5 degrees of gun depression.

coarse harness
#

The Challanger needs dpm and/or gun handlig buff
On the WZ-120 4° gun dep would be enough with it's current stats

austere bone
#

I was thinking 5 the smallest bump and the gun flys up

austere moat
#

5 would make it broken tbh. 4 is probably optimal, as its gun and turret is so bloody strong

austere bone
#

Obj 140 has 6° with 240 turret armor wz 120 has 220 t 54 has better hull armor with 200 turret armor and 6° too i think

austere moat
#

but the 120 has a 400 alpha gun with nuts aim time
Besides, artificial gun depression is a thing

round sundial
#

WZ120 needs no buff, it already has an excellent gun. Poor T54 already only has better hull armour and gun depression over it

indigo knot
#

Wz120 need gun depression buff
Still it is in the bottom of the charts even after it has better everything than T54 according to u

There is lot of difference still....you can't snap shot in Chinese meds and in case of meds in general moving accuracy is more important which most of the 121 line has bad

round sundial
#

Like I said, it already is better in about everything than T54, yet you want more buffs for it? Can't believe this E: How come ? It takes what makes T-34-2 great, but gives it actual DPM too. Sure 3 degs of gun dep and stuff, but that is the only real downside @mellow cape . You can't buff the tank downsides only or you end up with pretty much the same tanks in different tech trees

mellow cape
#

Tony I think you should try it yourself first, its really not as flexible as T-34-2

Why i have to do 645 dmg with HE against a Grille 15 using my Kpfpz 70 when a T49 against WT does also 800 or 900 dmg???? They share similar guns, at least buff the HE alpha in Kpfpz, damn it, there's no point in switching from APCR to HE

#

@unique scaffold you got different gun caliber from these tanks

It should at least be 780 like the t49, hopefully they implement it in the future @unique scaffold

@unique scaffold no difference in caliber, T49 and Kpfpz 70 share models of the XM conventional 152 mm american gun

vestal linden
#

kpz needs no buffs.in fact,i'd rather remove the useless HE from it.it has 2 great ammo types.but it would be better if they bumped it up to tier 10 where the tank belongs and buffed it accordingly to 640-560-960

Now they can’t because they just sold it cheap in the shop. The lower damage probably results in having it balanced as 640 damage with such a dynamic role in the battlefield might be a bit too annoying to deal with

If the FV215b gets a massive health nerf wouldnt it get a bit more of front hall armor buff "on the higher plate mostly" (despise the consumables) ?

mellow cape
#

Where is WZ-120 rework? That tank has had some of the lowest stats in tier 9 for a while and its still not doing better even after the buffs. Its a weird tank to balance but I think it should get a DPM nerf and gun depression buff along with alpha buff to 420/370 to make it more similar to WZ-121.

unique scaffold
#

@mellow cape wz 120 does not need a buff, not at all, in the current state it is a great tank, i played it after the latest buff, give it 2 more degrees of gun depr and you got yourself a new OP t9 med and you might aswell say bye to the t54. @unique scaffold before commenting take a good look again, realize that you are wrong. @summer hornet the number of T22s is too little

honest urchin
#

@quick dock I am referring to when the tank faces t7
If Tiger 2 turns turret the sides become easier to pen whilst still being very difficult for t7s and it represents the E100 line more
and also the the tank is slow and has low alpha so I dont think it needs a nerf

good to see the 121B rof buff now add an extra degree of gun depression and do something about the weak ammo rack and fuel tanks ! also the amx 30B fuel tanks are weak as feck !

true relic
#

@lusty silo I believe that these aren’t good changes, the progetto will still be overpowering the meta, as it will keep the most broken part of it the same, the gun. It will also dominate with the nerf of the foch, which isn’t good because the gun is the only thing that really makes it great, and it is balanced with the terrible turning speed and aim time, which the progetto will benefit from. The Foch’s gun and armor are balanced with the weak ammo rack, and bad side/rear armor which decent players can easily use to kill it

unique scaffold
#

@true relic please, please read the changes again before writing a paragraph. Also all you talked about the foch is just funny.

unreal spear
#

According to me KpfPz 70 needs to increase throughput because it will not break the T10 armor at all so Buff needs at least a smaller Buff for Throughput

@true relic the vital thing about progetto is autoreloader. We don't touch that. Also all the changes i mentioned before won't be significant.

Makes sense figured they would just nerf the auto loader reload to make it so that the tank couldn't just 1200 dmg a Target in like 5 seconds but a damage need would also change that. so I just don't know why wg went with the dmg nerf instead of reload nerf. Maybe make the clip reload a little longer idk

Cmon WG. The Fv215B was before the consumables an absolutely fine fine tank which could perform very well. And now you nerfing it?

Why fv215b getting an hp nerf?! It should get a consumable nerf

coarse harness

Well the IS-8 is in one of the three worst tanks in the charts for 9 months
The tank is definitely not bad just hard to play but I would like to have 1° more gun depression (5° atm) instead of some stupid armor buff
It would be more flexible an easier to go hull down

Nerfing fv215b hp really?it has good hp for the armor it has

Too OwerPowered the Foch.. Why again will got buffs?

distant river
#

WG seem to be about to make some smart decisions, hopefully they won't go to far (and ofc they will be implemented much later than they should have been) but it seems like a very good step forward. I would prefer a gun traverse nerf and a hull traverse buff for the grille but camo buff is alright, other than that good job WG for actually listening

Also the lack of the tiger 2 nerf isn't great but it isn't as important as the higher tiers so it's not terrible and could still happen

true relic
#

but everybody’s complaining about the foch being op and the tiger 2 is around the same level imo. It’s got a good gun, and amazing armor+decent speed, looks like to me that wg is just kinda ignoring it

@true relic oh yes bro my twin, I feel the same about this broken tank

who cares about the tiger 2 tbh or any other tier tier 8 , the only tiers that matter are tier 9-10

unique scaffold
#

If the lower tiers don't matter how would new players get to the High Tier?

distant river
#

Higher tier balance is much more important than lower tiers, that's why the Kenny is still how it is.
The tiger isn't as broken as the Foch imo, it's got less weak spots but its gun doesn't completely outclass anything that it can come against. It's still way too good but not as stupid as the Foch is

true relic
#

i mean the foch's armor is about as good as the tiger's gun tier for tier, and tier for tier the foch's gun is as broken as the tiger's armor imo, but tier 8 is also pretty close to high tier and where a lot of players play and grind

Still hoping on positives 4*400 autoloader that would take skill to use but it seems unlikely

river portal
orchid grove
#

I bet that the Foch nerf will turn out a lot like the T54E1 nerf.

Foch autoloader will probably be nerfed down to 560 alpha, and the reload time will just be buffed to maintain a similar amount of DPM compared to what it has now, since a straight alpha nerf without DPM compensation would be absolutely massive

craggy dust
#

So useless nerf thats what's you mean?

hot sun
#

I think they are trying to get it to where it cant 2 shot a grille (and other tanks) in 7 secs lol. If dpm stays the same, might still be okie for yoloing and brawling. I hope

tawny sail
#

The Foch change will mean that it won't be a massive burst damage machine. It'll be more dpm focused

round sundial
#

It can't be a DPM machine, it already is a speed demon and a great armour @tawny sail E: @hot sun Sure they may do it, but they absolutely shouldn't

hot sun
#

The nerf and corresponding buff might say other wise. I can see it becoming more dpm oriented

tawny sail
#

Lol it's armour is only good against standard rounds, once you load premium it's paper thin, not to talk about you can easily pen the drivewheel with apcr.
The speed is only effective when moving, when it's up close it relies on its decent traverse and the gun traverse is poor. Stop crying about everything about the Foch when the gun is the main thing about the whole tank.

You don't even have to load gold for the drive wheel

I would love to see Foch nerfed to the ground
It is the second tank that I feel so much hate for after pre nerfed 183

@tawny sail since when a tank have to be balanced on pramo ? The Foch armor is really effective, if pp Switch to pramo they Lost a lot of dpm, so Foch armor is usefull+it has great mobility+Amazing gun

tawny sail
#

Oh so when the fochs armour can only be reliably penned by premium it's not okay, but when the maus's armour can only be penned by premium it's fine. Cool cool.
Like I said, shoot it in the drive wheel from any angle and it's the easiest pen.

round sundial
#

Did you just say that? "Speed is only effective when moving"??? Amd did you just compare it to a Maus? Which is million times slower and with a million times worse gun? Agent bond, you're speaking nonsense, Foch has crazy everything about it, it needs a massive nerf, anything else is a terrible balancing by WG. The foch should ideally be something like AMX AC 48. Strong frontal armour and good speed, at the expense of a somewhat lackluster gun for a TD. Right now, that's just not true and that is unacceptable

tawny sail
#

Oh so if I have 100kmp top speed, but I'm not moving or just holding a position, my speed is effective? And yes I compared it to the maus. And no, after these changes to the Foch it'll be fine as it won't be a massive burst of damage, it'll be dpm

hot sun
#

yolo noises intensify

indigo knot
#

That straight line speed is what allows Foch to take important positions in the map while Maus can't reach such advantageous positions....Foch has everything armour speed and gun basically WZ120gft of its tier but slightly worse

560(480)700 would be ideal alpha for it...and yes 150mm guns have this alpha

I hope for 600 alpha on the foch 155. Anything less and its not accurate alpha for the guns caliber

So foch won't have a 155mm with the new auto loader?

versed gate
#

For 183, WG can remove AP all together, with 303 mm HEAT as premmo and 140 mm HESH as standard round(no change to alpha).

This will insure that some skill is required to work with heat round( IMO AP is just too easy to use with high pen and encourages camping).

Same for the HESH, 140mm is good enough to pen sides of lot of tanks and its not an automatic 1300 slap on the face.

Then buff the tank around that to playable level.

foch 155 with 560 alpha dmg and more dpm... mhmmm but how much he rounds will deal dmg? I think that about 640 should be good for balance idk, and that reload between shells, it will be far far decreased from 7s to idk, propably 3s when it must be dpm machine, from that news about nerf i didn't see it at all, is see rather completly foch's gun rework

coarse harness

560 alpha with something like 4 or 5 sec intraclip and about 15 sec clip reload would be good imo

naive ibex

but... that magazine will be far more effective in some cases, u will deal 1120 burst dmg in about that 4-5s than 1280 in 7s right now... (results: foch will not hide in that reload between shells at all) far far more effective, the only think that will be worse in that reworked gun is less HE rounds dmg that won't kill grille from that full magazine

naive ibex

@ember basin we all know that progetto is really good tank but the only reason that this med is propably the best in tier X meds is that have this special magazine, THIS makes progetto super effective, but other thinks right now: accuracy? very good but one of worst in tier X meds, speed? in some cases quite good in acceleration, turret travese speed good, about 58 km/h max speed, gun? 350 alpha, 1050 burst dmg in 9 seconds, armor? very trollish and paperish, this tank right now is more like light tank with quite small turret and -9 gun depression that allows to do tatcics from leopard 1 - high risk, high reward, it has magazine and good speed to spot - tactics from batchat, this tank right now is like leopard 1 and bc 25t in one, +it has that SPECIAL MAGAZINE... far more effective and annoying than both of these tanks

ember basin
#

With a nerf it won't even be worth playing. Just like everything else that gets nerfed.

naive ibex
#

Yeah... this is tank that required some skill to play it well, but... right now this is like in foch 155: when it will be in your team, u will get more chances to win battle in that cases, these tanks right now are real gamechangers, the worst think in nerfing these gamechanging tanks is that this is very hard to do that, to make them more balanced, AND to not kill them (like in charioteer, real legend, but only in one update... and then rip, nobody plays it)

yeah... grille will get finnally very very useful buff, normally it is somewhat balanced.. but that bad camo destroying it completly... that only think... c a m o, last key for grille to success, but how much, this will decide about grille statistics

ember basin
#

Not void of logic at all. If something is made broken, then there's no use trying to make it work. I'll go play something like T22, AMX 30b, or STB. Which is sad, because none of those are near as fun as Progetto. This is really the only nerf I'm not happy about, because Progetto is already hanging in only by a thread. Oh, and saying if you have a Foch on your team increases your chance to win, then obviously you've never played on Asia server. NOTHING increases your chance of winning if the player doesn't know how to use their tank, which is like 90% of cases right now (with any tank). I've seen Foch get destroyed by a t9 light more times than I can count. It's all about the player, not the tank.

remote oriole
#

I was talking about it in a general fashion for an undefined nerf that is unknown for any given tank, and from that you cannot conclude that a tank will be broken and especially not that one shouldn’t play it anymore

teal frigate

I think that the FV215B183 should be brought back to its former glory when it had 152mm front hull and turret armor, better accuracy, better concealment and mobility like it had before, but they should replace HESH with APCR or HEAT with around 380 pen and decrease AP pen to 300.

@coarse harness Numbers... but i know how they propably rework that foch's gun (idk just minding), foch... with 2 shells magazine dealing 560 dmg... they said that it will get better reload, propably beetween shells... when they do that, foch will be a lot easier and even a lot more dangerous than foch before rework of this gun... right now, foch deals 640 dmg, 2 times cuz magazine... but... it has somewhat blockade to be more broken and agressive... yes... this reload beetwen shells (7 sec) when they reduce it too much, this will be far more agressive and sneaky at gamestyle, soo, the only think that can not making foch more op is only full reload magazine buff (with that 560 alpha dmg)(but... it propably needs that very very slighty better reload beetween shells, i think that 5-6 sec would be enough, nothing below)

@mellow cape WG does have a habit of messing up and when things get out of hand then come to realisation
Spare parts saga and timers was also a mess up which they understood later on and reverted it
They should listen to veterans .....it not like we want to destroy the game
They did the survey and voting was done I personally think that many players who voted are not in a habit of using provisions regularly....they cost much credits if you don't have premium account....I remember trying to use them when I started the game and used too much silver back when I didn't have any premium tank or premium time...instead of doing a discord survey they should conduct in game survey of players having 5k or more battles and ask their opinions on this matter

Asking any survey here is never going to get decent info. @indigo knot to me consumables should be tested and validated the same way new tanks are. Of course it would not work in ‘normal’ tanks on live server, so WG would need to create variants of all the tech tree tanks for testers to test new consumables. Have each tester run 100 games in the tech tree tank and then 100 games in the tech tree* tank with consumables and see how they affect results. Right now the vast majority of the 55-65% ‘balance’ players use high end consumables - including a number of the ‘super consumables’ so it skews results - and as we see from the 215b nerf that tanks are being hit due to those consumables.

KV-2’s RNG is fcked up, it can now ammorack easy and i think it’s a problem cause it can also hit targets easier when moving now.

night grail
#

KV-2 is a completely balanced tank. @fierce lantern
The KV-2 RNG is no different to other tanks.
It is a big target with virtually any tank it encounters it will be penetrated by.
Long time to reload. + Long aiming time.

I would get why you would assume it is OP. It has high potential but it is only when it’s in the right hands, but then again you can say the same with other tanks.

Yes 640 alpha at tier 6 is completely balanced, not forgetting the 960 HE alpha with good pen especially at that tier. It's not like it has a better gun than tier 8s and 9s at all and it should definitely stay in the game and not be removed and all memory of that failure removed from existence 🤦‍♀️

mellow cape
#

KV-2 is not balanced, its unbalanced and underpowered at the same time.

Derp guns are impossible to balance in a 7v7, the ability to instantly take away one person from a 7v7 by just luck alone is unbalanced and the tanks other poor stats (long reload, poor accuracy, long aim time, not great pen) can't balance it out.

KV-2 is a tank balanced by focus fire at most, and not by the tank stats

wraith lance

@distant river The only good thing about the KV2 is the alpha, literally everything else is garbage

nimble zodiac

The pen is okay, and the HE still works wonders

distant river
#

@remote oriole If it is balanced by something as "reliable" as teams then it is unbalancable

@wraith lance It has dpm as well, and it is still played by way too many people. For some people it's op and for some it's awful. This is because you cannot balance 640 alpha at tier 6 let alone 960 alpha

wraith lance
#

So it has good alpha and good dpm, but still, every other aspect is horrible. It's literally a hit or miss tank

And that's what makes it unbalancable 🤦‍♀️

KV2 is a joke. It doesn't matter if it has a ridiculous reload or has a big bloom. The fact that it can one shot over half the tanks at that tier pretty often makes it unbalanced.
Imagine that concept being at tier 10 in the form of a 183. With 2000 HESH alpha, would you consider it balanced even if it had say a 40-60 second reload?

distant river
#

^ it is impossible to balance, that's why half the playerbase is complaining about how op it is and the other half is complaining about how bad it is. It just needa the 152 removed and then swapping out of the tech tree for the T-150

round sundial
#

Yeah, idk why it hasn't been made collector instead of T150 in the first place. T150 fits the line theme so much better and KV2 fits the collector theme better. But the truth is, the tank is quite garbage rn but still annoying to play against. One of the mods here calls it the WoTB slot machine, and it is quite fitting indeed

wraith lance

IIRC WG said they didn't remove the KV2 because it was 'sUcH a pOpUlAr tAnk', which IMO is a pretty lame reason

No it make's perfect sense. All the other
tech tree collectors were tanks that that no one really played in the first place like the t150. Or the kv-13.

About the KV 2 discussion I will say, that if it is nerfed/buffed in any way, shape, or form, it will anger half of the community. As a KV 2 lover myself, I spend my time and effort to make my kv 2 as deadly as possible (gold rounds, gun enhancements, crew etc.) and to see that beauty being nerfed to the ground or removed will make me want to quit this game. I played as other tanks against it, it’s biggest weakness is that it is an enormous target that can be penetrated and also hunted down easily if it exposes himself too much. This is why the KV 2 shouldn’t be touched as to make the community happy and not in open hatred to this discussion.

distant river
#

If you are a lover of the KV2 then you leaving the game will make tier 6 better 🤷‍♀️
If it removes the part of the playerbase that like camping, doing one shot of damage and dying while depending on rng to do well then the playerbase will improve...

wraith lance
#

People would just switch to the next highest alpha tank, you are very naive if you think removing the KV2 would do something significant @distant river

distant river
#

@night grail You think I play tier 6 or that I can't easily take out a KV2? 🤦‍♀️

@wraith lance The SU100Y is much more balanced than the KV2 and it would make a pretty big difference, especially at tier 6 seeing as it's a prem. After that it's the KV-1S which is also much more balanced and can't 1 shot tanks and actually needs skill

drowsy plaza
#

Any large alpha gun has balancing issues in Blitz, the KV-2, the 183, the T49, the old T82 😉 The KV-2 and SU-100Y are unique however as they can one shot (no ammo rack) tanks in tier -- the 183 can't - nor can any of the others. I mean look what happened to the 183 now. I mean the Smasher is OPAF - but it is somewhat balanced by it doesn't see tier 5, and often sees tier 8. The biggest issue I see with the KV-2 now, is it is really the first tech tree DERP that new players run into.

night grail
#

KV-1S : 390 Alpha = Balanced
KV 2 : 545/640 AP Alpha + Longer aim, reload etc. = Balanced
HE rounds can be used but then again it’s HE rounds. It’s only for paper thin targets.
Where is the anomaly? @distant river

wraith lance
#

The KV2 has a lot of HE pen for what it is, the whole 'only for thin targets' thing doesnt really apply. For instance, it can pen the front of a KV1S with HE @night grail

celest pewter
#

Reference

distant river
#

@night grail KV-1S has 400 alpha so nice job, and 640 alpha is more than 50% extra on top, and 960 is almost 150% more. 76mm of pen at tier 6 is more than enough for meds and the sides of quite a few heavies and TDs.

@wraith lance Removing the 152mm gun when making it a collector would solve the problem. The SU152 is much more balanced because it is a tier 7 but I still think that the alpha is too high and I would like to see it nerfed to the kpfs alpha

night grail
#

Then again, what’s the disadvantage of a big lumpy gun? Everything except the high alpha. Take British FV215b 183 for e.g. It can take away 60-70% of health from a normal T10 vehicle. KV 2 is mostly the same as with AP you can take away atleast 70%. I can say the same thing for both tanks with HE shells. @distant river

distant river
#

Lmao so you are trying to say the KV2 is balancable because the 183 is balancable 😂
Both of them don't belong in blitz and the sooner they are removed the better tier 6 and 10 will be (and tier 5, 7 and 9)

charred bobcat
#

@night grail Lol no, you're completely stretching the truth. The 183's AP has 930 alpha, which is ~40-50% of a tier 10, while the HESH has 1300 alpha, ~55-70%. Generally the players at tier 10 are more aware and play better, but yet it was one of the most complained about tank prior to the nerf.
Meanwhile the KV-2 eliminates 50-70% of a tier 6 with AP and 100% with HE. Oh gotta mention that tier 6 is filled with lightly armored tanks and way less skilled players that are new to the game.
And it's the RNG factor that's the most annoying. You roll a dice for a chance to one shot a new player. Yeah, sure. Balanced.

Everyone is complaining about the kv2 being able to one shot BUT remember the rng part? Yeeeee it basically means that unless you fight it on reeeaaally close range it would have to be just as lucky as any other tank to hit you, it is somewhat balanced imo, why? Well the only good thing it has goin for it is the high alpha and the one shot factor, then you have the most unreliable gun in the entire game low shell velocity bad pen even the he shell pen was nerfed the longest reload in the entire game and so on ._. The armor isn't as reliable as with the kv1 either, for a heavy that's quite low unless you don't aim and keep hitting places like the mantlet it shouldn't bounce

KV-2 is a RNG slot machine and that is the problem with it. It doesn't take any skill at all to mash the fire button and hope that RNGesus lands a one shot kill on some more medium across the map. That is the problem with the tank. It appeals to players who can't do damage in a normal tank so they have to depend on lady luck landing a one shot kill to some poor schmuck. It is a bad mechanic to have in the game. It creates bad habits in both the players who use it and the players who fight against it. Even worse it does this at a tier where players are at their most impressionable. I get why it appeals to players but any unbiased observer should be able to see why it is bad for the game as a whole.

If the kv2 is balanced then what is smasher? They ddint remove the KV2 cause it would be very controversial because it's such a icon.

War gaming needs a specified tutorial on how to counter the kv2 and maybe it would be less influential in a battle.

I find kv2 actually very well balanced.and extremely fun to play.like everytime I feel game get boring,I play the kv2.this tank is very powerfull and in the same time very horrible.somtime it more like RNG tank.but I can admit that HE shell are way to damaging.even heavy tanks are not safe from it

Its funny how players try to justify kv2s one shot ability, "they shud be punished" lmao yea getting punished by being destoyed in one shot from a long distance (prolly from a corner ) so that these players will also now sit in spawn with a big gun

But it does happen doesnt it? One shotting tanks shudnt be thing anyways, like a jag or 183 r better in this respect as they atleast leave u with some hp left after the so called "punishment"
And i m not talking abt how good the tank is, i m just talking abt the one shot ability and how it shudnt be present in the game no matter how rare these shots hit @unique scaffold

@cunning kindle it happens way too seldom to even be taken in consideration, let's be real here, KV2 is not that big of a threat like it used to be, an ARL or a M6 are far far better in every situation if we r talking strong heavies. That is sooooo stereotypical i really can't trust a thing u are saying.

cunning kindle

And it doesn't happen rarely, i remember playing tier 6, quite a while ago and the kv2 platoons r the most toxic ones, they'll one shot tanks from spawn and just spam global chat with "ez" etc, they'll yolo one tank if their team is losing and they r in a 2v7 or 2v6 and just one shot a tank each and its really annoying
They ruin the newer players experience is what i m trying to say coz most new players dont know abt HE and that they can be one shotted
Well i havent played tier 6 for quite some time so i mite be wrong now abt the platoon thing coz wg did introduce some equipment (??) @unique scaffold

my only tier 6 tank is kv2,and tbh is not that good as you thing, yesterday I only win 1 game of 5 game. because of the horrible aiming of this tank and also the new equipment make tanks get harder to pen with HE shell.
I dont understand why people's complaints about this tank.a skilled players will easily outplayed the kv2 with other tank. but tbh camp with kv2 is the most toxic thing I ever heard 😂 also new player will learn they lesson to not come infront of this tank and yolo around anymore.the only problem I found with kv2 is the HE damage. it so stupid to even be able to kill heavy tank in shooting infront of it.( but It get really harder because of the new equipment)
maybe they should make some changes in MM and make kv2 only face tier 6 and 7. because tier5 are so dead infront of this massive gun kv2 got

but nobody gonna use kv2 as tournaments tank.so it defenlty not great tank otherwise serious team would use it
also new player should learn how to deal with this and other tank in future they gonna see.

@unique scaffold Why should a tank not be removed if it's unbalancable?

New players will learn to not be aggressive at all and camp all game because they are afraid if some standard KV2 driver camping spawn and waiting for someone to try and make the game interesting. This makes them overly cautious at higher tiers which leads to the campfest that is tier 10 which isn't what this game should be. @still kelp

#

The only issue with the kv2 is mostly its HE shell. If WG doesnt nerf that, the only alternatives I see is increasing percentage of the module that reduces HE damage from 130mm and higher guns. (Or add a provision that adds to the current 10% HE reduction). Cause if they did that, players who refuse to use HE reduction equipment deserve to get derped

nimble zodiac

Actually I commonly destroy enemies in tournaments with KV-2 when we “meme” them... it’s... kind of scary...

distant river
#

There shouldn't have to be different equipment for 2 entire tiers just because of 1 broken tank, all it needs is for the KV-2 to be taken out of the tech tree, the 152 removed and then the T-150 put in its place. It's not a hard fix and if it gets rid of people who teach bad habits to new players then the game is going to benefit a lot

drifting depot
#

You know, to begin with the 152 is literally the main gun of a real life kv2, and if you remove it it's kinda like tearing away your own leg and trying to walk so removing it it's quite a dumb argument, and putting the t-150 in........ we all know why it was removed to begin with, it's basically a tier 6 kv4 that can't even be penned..... noobs would just STORM it and same would be for seal clubbers, if the kv2 gets removed from the tech tree then I don't think it's a good idea to put in the 150 there

T-150 never had godlike armor, it’s good but not exploitable. It could replace KV-2 and get armor nerfs, just part of the playerbase would wanna stick with the KV-2.

The announced Foch 155 Nerf is absolutely stupid. They will not target the problem once again. The problem is the dpm of the autoloader. They just have to nerf the clip reload. Why do they have to do retarded stuff like nerfing the alpha and actually buffing the rof?! Another nerf that doesnt nerf anything but just makes things weird

hot sun
#

The kv2 has been around for a long long while. Players learn to deal with it. Imo, yes the kv2 is like the 183, it can take huge amounts of hp from tanks with one shot. But the kv2 is vastly popular among the player base, taking out the kv2 could lead to consequences that are negative for wg. The kv2 does teach players to not poke and conserve hp. And after awhile players learn that once a kv2 fires, it's free damage. If players cant learn to deal with a kv after a couple hundred mid tier battles(such as baiting shots, cod, or just outspotting them) they deserve to get derped when they sit idly in front of it. RNG shots do happen, but they happen literally with every tank. Take chinese mediums who have awful on the move bloom, they can still snap shot and hit targets across the map here and there, same as kv, and 183 and every other tank.

@distant river because kv2 is actually balanced.ik there is thing that this tank need some luck to work and do wonder,but the fact that the only good thing about this tank is the alpha damage and that it,nothing else. tbh for me kv2 is the last thing I will be worry about it. because it just not good tank at all,not to mention how horrible is it in term of aiming. you got the point that this tank is do to much damage. but it only can do that to light and some medium tank. if it was for all tank.then sure it should be nerf.but with new nerf and equipment,I not worry about enemy kv2 anymore.as long as I play like real light or medium,I should be fine and manage to kill the kv2 with out problems.also I dont really see to many kv2 in battle. I mostly see the new buffed vk and kv1s or vk28 or su100
but!if I want be honest. they should nerf the damage on he shell.it way to much specially in tier 5 is way to broken.other then that.it balanced tank,although I dont think it be possible to really balance a derpy tank

I'm curious about what the alpha damage nerf for the Foch 155 would entail. Would it just keep the 155mm gun and just have 560 alpha like the Kpz-70 and T49? Or would it be receiving a 120mm gun with 400 average damage per shot? Either seems interesting to me, but the 120mm option seems the most interesting. Seeing a TD with a 3 or 4 shot 120mm auto-loader would be very cool indeed.

For me it is sad that people dont get that when u play derp tanks players become more situationaly aware as they know they are playing high risk high reward tank and kv 2 in my eyes is the best example as having about 22 seconds can easily get u rushed and killed but no people are bad/dump/braindead and drive their tanks carelessly in the opend where kv 2 can get nice shots and how is camping in corner a problem as u can outspot the best refrigerator unit.

The KPz probably won't get ATGMs, at least its Shilelaghs, which is slightly disheartening for a fan of the actual tank in WG Rd where the thing is the most fun to field due to its dual type of shot dynamic, considering if they add the Shilelaghs to the KPz, that would mean adding the AT-8 Sagger to the T-62A, meaning that you have an already good tank get a nice advantage over literally almost every tier X med, unless ofc Weegee decides to add the M60 Starship (slightly better 152 on it than the T49's and can launched ATGMs), plus I think ATGMs should have a hefty price per use

@tulip imp I see KV-2's sniping in most matches where a KV-2 is present. Generally speaking the KV-2 appeals the the worst type of players. Players who don't want to put any thought into how they play. They just want to mash the fire button and do damage. No thought, no tactics, just dErP. As I've said before, I can see why players like the KV-2. I cannot see how any objective thinker can defend it or think it is good for the overall health of the game.

I see where you're coming from, but I don't think the KV-2 deserves another HE nerf other players think it needs, but rather a dispersion nerf. In the frontline, the kv2 requires much more skill than simply using two fingers to aim and shoot.

Kv 2 used to be a fun sidetank to get befour 5.5 and it is funny to see that there are individuals who dont want it in the game and thoes same individuals pribably just go out in the open and get close to the thing (like kv2 weaknesses are range and hard cover learn to use them)

unique scaffold
#

The other Russian guns don't even come close to the 152mm on KV-2 for being RNG dependent. You may like the tank but I don't see how anyone can defend its existence in the game. It is there because it appeals to a certain type of player. This is one of those instances where WG went with making a certain subsect of player happy over the health of the game. They have said just as much when asked why the T-150 was removed in 5.5 instead of the KV-2. The KV-2 teaches bad habits to those who play it and those who play against it. A tank that can one shot a same tier tank creates a stagnant gameplay environment and honestly has no place in a game called Blitz.

WG shouldn't have given the Jagdtiger 8,8 the 10.5 cm gun - big mistake. Took away the character of the tank as well as making its name silly.

All the Jagdtiger 8,8 needed was an extra 3 rounds per minute on the 8,8 cm gun. That would have made its DPM on AP almost as high as the Tier 9 Jagdtiger's! Even shooting prammo (to make up for the weak 203 mm AP pen) its DPM would still have been higher than the AT 15's on AP! That would have been awesome!

Then WG should have given the 10.5 cm gun only to the Snowstorm Jagdtiger, thereby making it different and special from the Jagdtiger 8,8.

That would have been OP, though

Yeah, it'd be so much fun to fire 203mm pen AP shots in such a slow tank. Maybe, just maybe if the standart ammo was the APCR, and it had a higher pen pramo, but the 8.8 is very much useless no matter the DPM

@unique scaffold sorry bout that, didn't know, anyway, I think tbh that the KV-2 is literally just sit still and don't worry about anything by hiding in a bush is what turned it off for me, I decided I wanted the IS and not the big bad box with a 152 is cause the IS offers more dynamic gameplay than any of the KV-2's line until the IS-4 which from your complacency, you're forced to actually do something other than wait in a corner, the other 152 tanks, such as the ISU-152, SU-152, T49 and KPz feel better to use since you have to get up and do something, the ISU and SU are TDs so it's understandable for the sit still and snipe gameplay, the KPz feels at home as support tank since you have slow reload butt compensate for the really, really comfortable turret armor, the T49 is that tank that lives on motion, and is the most dynamic to play, since its a light, you have to keep moving or your dead, the KV-2 is just a big turnoff to me since half the ppl that play it get their enjoyment from blapping unsuspecting ppl that come out into the open

@karmic steeple the SU-152 is meant for the 152mm, its literly in the name, it would mean replacing the SU-122-44 as the one on the tree and the 152 as a premium, which nobody would want considering that the 122-44 even with all the nerfs has a nerve wracking 2.9k DPM, higher then the 152's 2.5k DPM at the expense of lower HE Damage but more powerful normal shot pen

the accuracy of the gun is superior too. i have both tanks and i definetely prefer the skorp over the wz , i would say the skorp in the hands of a good player can do some really crazy stuff , the wz is more of a noob proof tank

orchid grove
#

@dull stone You don’t understand what the turret is for then. The turret gives the Skorpion all kinds of flexibility that the WZ doesn’t have. You can peek bushes much quicker, you can fire on the move, you can play hulldown, you can circle other TDs, you can angle the hull down over one side to get gun depression, etc..

And the alpha difference is huge. Firstly, the DPM difference is pretty marginal. And the alpha difference means that the Skorpion only has to expose once every 9.7s as opposed to 7.27s on the WZ. This is important because camo will reset for the Skorpion basically the moment it’s ready to fire whereas it doesn’t on the WZ. Also, higher alpha means that the Skorpion will punish careless peeks far harder than the wz.

In Blitz, when it comes to sniping, the alpha on the Skorpion is just more important than the camo on the WZ. The Skorpion can peek after its camo has reset, snap off the shot before the enemy can notice, and duck back far faster than the WZ

@orchid grove I mean I won't deny that su 101 needs some fixes here and there that would improve the tank. tho WG cheated with the gun depression as it slightly clips through the tank and with the armor not being historically accurate which I don't mind that they did that.

So im wondering why crew skills are affecting the reload between shells (fire 1 shell and loading 2nd) on the p44 pantera when the reloading function would be handled by mechanisms inside the turret... and NOT the crew?

@hot snow The crew is actually the ones loading shells into the magazine; the autoloading mechanism is responsible for slamming the shells into the breech. So the 3.0s interclip isn't affected by the crew mastery level, but the 3.1/3.55/6.65s reloads are

Black prince is a “Heavy Tank” it’s not supposed to be penned up front by a light tank, the fact that an MT-25 can’t pen it is normal, because it’s a tier 6 light. I think the Black prince is great and needs to stay the same.

AMX AC 48 needs either a buff on this:
Cupola armor reinforcements
Or a 9.5-9.8 second reload

T62A needs a small Reload nerf, tbh.

Standard B and Progretto need fixing as well.

STB1 is still better than T62A change my mind. Also, with the buffs to the tanks, Foch, T62A, STB1, and some tanks being broken by default like T22, at this point it may be more realistic to simply buff the others to the level of the current tanks.. It's a bad way but it seems to be the way WG is going unfortunately

It needed a small buff but not 7° of depression, especially seeing at the 140 wasn't changed at all

i mean the 140 is like almost halfway on the mediums, and the 62a is dead last, and the 140 still has the better mobility and better angled hull so its not entirely bad with the 62a buff

distant river
#

140 only has 5kmph better top speed but worse acceleration so that cancels itself out, and the 140s much worse turret balances it's better hull armour. The only real difference before was the depression that favoured the 140 and made up for it not being able to hold hull down positions as well but that's changed now 🤷‍♀️

Buff STA 1. It's gun is okay but the armour and speed makes it a very bad tank overall, would better if it had a armour or mobility buff to STA 1 in addition to the Chi To and the Chi Ri.

KV-2 splashes more if you can aim well...
E5 only really has strong front armor, the turret roof is quite weak and takes a lot of damage from HE (this applies to pretty much all tanks btw, not just E5)

rhm is turreted TD. Charioteer has weak armor too. Only turreted td in tier VIII with good armor is T28 Proto but it's speed eh. But about E5. They did 400 damage to me with every HE hit that was not in barrel in front of the turret from 50m away or more. that's not turrets roof top hits. I was hull down. No chance of hitting it.

E5 sides are also quite weak, and you can splash into the side/turret roof even without direct hits because of how HE works

Slightly Buff the T-25 Turret traverse speed.
It takes forever for the turret to make a full rotation and I always have to turn the entire tank body to face the direction of the enemy rather than waiting for the turret, even at a 60 degrees angle. Medium tanks shouldn’t have super slow turret traverse speed, it makes the tank very underwhelming.

E5 is pretty easy to splash when hulldown, 300-350 splash (allowing for the normal over-exaggeration that everyone does) isn't something odd @candid steeple

would you prefer if WG swapped the thickness of the LFP and the UFP so it now has a proper "weakspot"? It's literally better that the tiger 2's UFP is it's weakspot, that just makes it a whole lot easier to shoot and pen

lunar niche
#

@quasi tiger So, its 160mm and is stronger than E100's LFP. Why did you shoot there?

The UFP is much bigger target with the same thickness but less effective armour. Shoot there.

Not much different than people shooting HEAT on Vk100's spaced armor.

We need much better balance in match making. Too many battles are landslides with teams winning 7-0 or 6-1. As I understand it, this is because the current match making algorithm doesn’t take into account anything about the players skill. The algorithm only looks at the tiers and types of tanks and attempts for make a match so the teams have similar numbers of tank tiers and types. The algorithm is completely player agnostic, so it’s completely a random event whether or not the teams are balanced or unbalanced in terms of player win rates, damage per battle, etc,

So due to the completely random distribution of players, one team could have an average win rate of 55% with 5 players over 50% and 2 over 60% and the other team can have an average win rate of only 45% with no player over 50%. I’ve seen many battles just like this and the outcome is decided before the battle begins.

Why not add a second stage to the match making algorithm. The first stage would apply the current algorithm to find 14 players such that there are balanced numbers of tanks from each tier and type. Then the second stage of the algorithm would simply divide up the players into teams attempting to keep the average win rates for each team as close as possible. A software program could do this second stage in milliseconds because it’s not searching for more players. It’s just dividing them up into balanced teams as best as possible while still keeping balanced in tank tiers and types for each team.

Of course you probably wouldn’t want to use win rates alone since a player’s win rate doesn’t tell the whole story about their skill level. It would be better to use a composite score that takes into account win rate, average tier played, and damage per battle.

karmic steeple

Man 7-0 and 6-1 matches happen sometimes. If you watched the recent twister cup even in the championship match I’m pretty sure the two teams went back and forth a couple games sweeping each other. It just happens sometimes and it’s a part of the game nothing you can really do to fix it

Oh yes, unnecessary nerfs on some vehicles like the FV215b and the Progetto, even the stats show Progetto is falling behind WZ-121, no reason to see it nerf, Instead of Nerfing the FV215b the 2nd time, why don't you just nerf the consumables instead

@wet quail and why

@dense yoke the KV can be OP in the hands of a very good player, but I rarely see KV2’s lead teams in damage. Most of the time after a KV2 shoots once or twice, it gets focus fired and killed fairly early in battles. The KV2 definitely has a derp gun with really high alpha for tier 6, but I think it’s balanced by the super long reload, low DPM, poor pen, slow speed and mobility, and pretty crappy armor for a heavy. Now the Smasher is a different story entirely. Now that tank is completely OP for tier 7. It has a derp gun, plus really high DPM for its tier and it has pretty good speed for such a large heavy. War Gaming always balances heavies and mediums that have high alpha by giving them lower than average DPM compared to tanks with lower alpha guns that typically have higher DPM. The only exception to this is many of the TD’s that have high alpha and high DPM. But the Smasher not is not balanced like other heavies. It has super high alpha and really high DPM which makes is the most OP tank in the game relative to its tier.

Why does the Foch 155 retain 545 alpha on Heat shells.....it should be around 460 or 480 alpha .......

formal vale
#

The 183 fills a niche for people who like big alpha damage guns. The price they have to pay for that damage is the fact that the platform is garbage. Where else do we see this? The KV-2, SU-152, etc. The price you have to pay for high damage output is either a poor platform, poor accuracy, or often times both.

The 183 is exactly where it needs to be. Nerfing it more would mean you might as well remove it from the game. Buffing it in any way would make it stand out above its peers. It's a bad idea to change anything on the 183 at the moment until some sort of major balancing patch comes for tier 10.

Why is Panther 1 now objectively better than Panther 2 ? Excuse me wtf? Also some of the buffs are ridiculous, what is WG even thinking ? Tiger 1 165mm front ? What are T7 meds gonna do ? At best they can go cry in a corner! T29 ? Yeah SURE, give the best hulldown tank at T7 a good hull armour to go with it. Big smart time.
TDs armour buffs ? 200mm eff frontally is a lot, again, what are meds gonna do ? They can't pen them frontally anymore unless they spend a lot of time aiming for weakspots, even with pramo. Not even speaking about the obviously bugged showing of JP side 165mm. Standart B nerf ? Not even close to enough..

WG, can we do something about people below 45% platooning? It makes it nearly impossible for that team to win. I just had a 38% and 39% platooning together in my game. Of course we lose because of them. It’s becoming a huge problem

The panther kinda needed some sort of armor buff but this is a bit too extreme

The tiger kinda makes sense because the vk36 has more armor than it.

The American tanks really don’t need buffs ( especially t29 )

So about the changes.. Grille 15 not noticeable
FV215B - I don't think it deserved it, it's very good but not that good imo
121B - Don't have problem with it
Foch 155 - I think they could have scaled the cupolas back to what they were, like it's a big problem for meds to even pen, and eventhough the alpha is lower, the DPM stays the same so I think it should get nerfed further by the cupolas nerf.
Standart B - Not even close to enough, what is the point in Leopard PT righ now???
Progetto 65 - It did probably need a slight nerf, it's just nuts right now, but this may be a bit too much
T29 - WTF ? The best hulldown tank in the tier and it gets a very good hull to go with it ? Needs to stay where its now..
T25 AT - This TD may be meh, but giving it eff 200mm frontally, 250 when using gun depression ? Way too much
IS - Can't load the model, but it looks like 160mm on the UFP. Not a place anyone aims at anyways, I don't think it'll change too much.
KV3 - Massive buff, the mantlet is no longer pennable, so the tank is now super menacing in hulldown
Panther - WTF ???? Already one of the best meds now gets 180mm wdd ufp armour, as much as KV3. One of the worst buffs this patch
Tiger 1 - Also, crazy. No med can now pen it with AP, what can they do when tiger rushes them ? Needs to stay where it is.
JP - I assume the side armour is a bug in blitzhangar, but the front may not be., And it's just. Just like T25AT, way too much.
BP ? No comment. I mean it won't change too much, but still no even close to needed.
AT tanks - Probably needed it, but will it change much ? Probably not
IS-2 chinese - the only tank which did really need the buff outta all those tanks. What is it, like 10% of their buffs are on point ? Nice stats wg..

buff the 140 62a completley outclasses it now

kindred jungle
#

personally, I agree with that but the 140 has a greater slope on its frontal armour and better mobility. I think only the gun needs a buff.

formal vale
#

The 140 barely has better frontal armor. It's not reliably in the slightest, it just gets some troll bounces sometimes. The mobility is almost negligible; you can only really tell the difference when it comes to straight line dashes to certain spots. The 140 is truly outclassed now and I don't see why.

If WG were to return its pre-nerf turret armor and maybe just buff the gun handling, it would be much more competitive than it is now and it would pretty much equal the 62A in strength (ie gun depression sacrificed for speed and hull armor).

I love the novelty of it all, but can we agree that ammo racks are a little too broken for Blitz?

Balance out the 140 and the T62A again, I got the 140 for the extra gun depression and I have less turret armor and less gun depression now wtf this is stupid

The 140 is still a good tank, higher top speed, better hull armour and best in class standard round pen. It's still better at brawling than a 62a

mellow cape
#

Yes, Obj 140 hull is significantly better than 62a, not slightly and its also easier to generate bounces from it. The sides are also much harder to hit with HE from TDs and other high pen HE (except high pen HESH) as it forms a curved shape and can even generate some troll bounces.

the drac is not worth more than 10k gold lol people. Its been power nerfed for years. Look at the 6.7 open test with panther 1 armor buff or tiger 1 armor buff or other heavies armor buffs, the drac can't pen any of those from the front

@twilit crystal Yes,u said its the price of last year,can be different this year. Back then the drac was op af

twilit crystal
#

but its Highly demanded, literally everyone wants it in the acution because everyone thinks its super OP like the t54mod1, its a decent tank but its by no means OP. When it first came out heavy tanks had much worse traverse at tier 7, the didnt have the 10% mobility provision and they also had horrible gun handling so you couldnt even hit a drac. Against mediums the drac generally has worse dpm or armor or both so its not that hard to outplay one. Now heavies get much better gun handling, they also got armor buffs and massively better traverse which makes it impossible for many meds to COD heavies, the Drac still can but it can't just rush from the front anymore and has to come from a different angle

The thing is just fun to play, it’s not necessarily good.

The tank is kinda like a t49, it CAN do a lot on damage but it is limited due to its low pen. Also the tank is a HE piñata, at least from my experience.

I have to say that, I can’t hold on anymore. What are the fxxk wg thinking about? They think they put noobs and pro together and everything will be fine? I’m really sure that the worst match making I’ve seen in my short life. Why me(pro)(75wr at30 days) need to carry those noobs? I fight to help team, a normal team. Everyone knows what’s they need to do. Not a team with brainless and who even doesn’t know how to shoot and drive well. No one is happy with the match making at moment. So why wg doesn’t change it? Ah they said: we are lazy, if u don’t like, go play rank. Of course. No difference in rank. High win rate doesn’t mean he’s pro, but low win rate I’m really sure that he’s noob. Pls
a Wg, make new match making.
Noob doesn’t happy if they fight with pro. Pro doesn’t improve them skill fighting with noob.
Best way is noob fight each other, pro too.
How to difference pro and noob? We can get idea of blitz star, make wotb official’s wn8. Or something like wn8.
Higher than 3k, pro2k -3k normal lower than 2k noob.
Normal players could fight with pro and noob, pro could fight with pro and normals , noob could fight with noobs and normals.
Match making is the most important part of the game. I hope wg can do it well. Stop think about how to take more our money, just thinking about how to make better. Players will pay for it.
Thanks everyone. Hope the Wg can read it all.

So I said, make a difference with wn8. Each person is different, No one is some.
Someone is better so why we put everyone in the same match making?
Im happy if I fight with 70 wr. Im 65, we are close no much difference into 65 and 70. But 70 and 50? There is a lot of difference. 70wr feels so easy and 50 wr feels so difficult. Now, this case is often to happen. This is a reason why we need to change it, to make it better
May 70 and 50 is so much different. But im really sure that 50wr can't win against with 60wr. Usually

tawny sail

So basically you want it to be 60% vs 60%. And this has been said every time. If this were to happen, EVERYONE would be 50% as they would be facing their skill level and there’s just no point. Suck it up

And u know the eu serve’s tournament has been closed for 2 weeks? I want to know how many times I need to wait for tournament back?
It won't be everyone 50% cause into the pros there is person more pro and not really pro. But there isn't so many difference. U can improve u skills while fighting with person who is more pro than u. Winrate will be just a number. Who cares? It seems like rank at moment but more specifically.

karmic steeple
#

The point James is making is that the metric you are using to judge people is directly related to winrate. So if you are matched against a bunch of ppl of the same wr you’re wr is going to tank and regress to 50% Bc you don’t have a bunch of noobs to beat up on. So you’ll end up with the same problem in MM
Noobs are a part of every game

tough talon
#

Of course every game has noobs. But it doesn't mean noob needs fight with pro. New players fight with new players, pro fight with pro. Isn't something logic? Join the game, find out opponent has raid, eg, loca or 7 star mercy something else and u team has 3 guys without clan. Everyone despair at this moment.
Think about it, think hard. U want to fight with pro, with a good team, try hard to win. Or a battle of 7-0 or 0-7.
If u can choose, which one u will pick up

karmic steeple

That’s just lopsided MM not anything to do with pros and noobs fighting in different matches

tough talon
#

Everyone knows match making isn't fair. It won't be fair, never. But I hope, at least we can make it better.
Now, noobs did nothing into battle. Just looking pro dominate the game. Maybe block some dmg for pro to help he survives. I use my teammate blocks some dmg for me cause I know he do anything also I see how does he play. So I know
I never think that I'm pro. I can't improve my skill against noobs. I win easy, doesn't mean I'm happy with it.
Actually u guys don't want to fight against pro ha? Aren't u?
Rank isn't fair too. Do u guys think rank is somewhere with good match making? No way, I was 5200 points, I saw 3 guys with 3k in my team. And I promise, diamond is easy to get just if u want to. Gold rank is same like random maybe worse.

B is a better side scraper thanks to rear mounted turret, smaller lower plate and has better frontal armor but weaker sides

Better sidescrapper? Not a chance with the extremely weak sides

Isn’t the point of sidescraping making those weak sides stronger? The tank is long, and with the rear mounted turret a less aggressive angle is achievable compared to other heavies

When did I ever claim the contrary? 😉

cloud crypt

i think 8~10 tiers of German Vk 72 01 line need all buff...

nimble zodiac

I mean both the E75 and the VK B can pull a nice sidescrape, B caps out at around 240 (with a very small weakspot) and E75 goes further, but both suffer through their turret, mainly the cupola. If either sidescrape to their right then they’d both be very good

cloud crypt
#

i think Vk b is not good sidescrape, because in both angle. E 75 is 360mm armor but Vk B is just 310. you can see in armor inspector apps. Therefore, Thought Vk B is long and back turret, but its strong point sidescrape is worse than E 75.

310 is overdoing it in tier 9 anyways, other than that they might as well shoot the turret front, or the cupola if they can

yup. 310 penned by any Heat. thats point. E 75 is 360 so, cant pen side. but Vk B's strongpoint, sidescrape is penned by Heat.

nimble zodiac
#

Always thought prammo would get pulled into this, then if you can meme pen the side on 310, then both of their turrets are a weakspot anyways. Ok, so if they use HEAT then VK can still do a good sidecrape regardless of the weakspot above the tracks, since HEAT dies when trying to go through tracks, a longer scale to sidescrape with is a better angle availability

Except the side is so much larger and easier to hit?

lol the e75 turrets and vk turrets will easily block most heat shells if aimed directly the odds of hitting the gun or the cheeks are pretty decent, I guess maybe some tier X td pen with CS might be able to pen the cheek if it isn't directly at you but the turret overall is nto a super easy auto pen

I've been playing VK 45.02 B in awhile, its really a good tank for sidescraping, as long as you not over-angle them over 15+ degrees (or even 30 degrees i guess)

Because HEAT rounds is always been an issue for this tank.. i had to go micro, than macro (sidescrape mostly defeats some AP/APCR rounds, but not HEAT imo)

atomic hound
#

VK B is awful, it's just an objectively worse e75. The side armour is a joke, it's a worse sidescraper, it's less mobile, it has less gun depression, it sucks at chasing tanks round corners, etc.

I reckon it needs side armour of 130mm, make it a much better sidescraper than the e75. When they've just introduced the VK 90 with 140mm of side armour with a better angle on it, a great gun, a better turret, and amazing gun depression over the sides I don't see why we can't have 130mm on the VK B a tier down since it has none of those other advantages.

main coral
#

Buff Obj. 140
A) bigger gun depression
B) more damage per shot (for ex. 320)
C) better mobility (for ex. max speed increased to 60km/h)
D) lower dispension ( from 0.336 to 0.310)

Share your opinion in comments.

@atomic hound That's why VK 45.02 B should be earning the title "The Poor Man's VK 90.01 P"

Or maybe not, because its fine as it is?

Idk- maybe Obj. 140 fans kinda annoyed over T-62A buffs, with that -7 depression

nimble zodiac
#

@tribal lodge Ferdinand is supposed to be the armored one, the JPan II makes up so much with a workable superstructure, great speed, high damages per shot, but a faster reload than the 152mm helps prevent a trade and allows a one way fire. Try to hide your hull as much as possible, and it’ll get quite annoying to get penetrated.

The Leopard is already fine. The Batchat is also already fine (if not very slightly underpowered). The Leopard is basically the Batchat without the clip and light tank camo but added DPM, pen, and gun handling (it's also much bigger in size). Both are balanced and both can be highly effective tanks when used correctly.

Cupola his weakspot isn't a real weakspot, make it bigger oder less armor.
Tiger II has God like armor for his tier, even in tier 9. It need a drawback with his mobility to compensate for this.

Mediums are strong, even the Panther II, it's just a complex playstyle which doesn't fit to 80% the player. Give it the sniper role, with good accuracy.

Amx 30b is completely balanced.

I rather Nerf the STB 1, it doesn't have any drawback, it is fast, agile, okish gun,

E50M, Nerf the turret armor from 250 to 240 or 235 to give the enemy meds a chance.

WZ 121 has dpm, armor, Big gun, mobility and everything you need, Nerf the gun depression to give him a drawback. Form his - 5° to -3.5°

Honestly the tiger 2 is ridiculous, because you can say what you want but this is the only tank atm that has armor that cannot be panned by prem-ammo by many heavy tanks or medium tanks of the same tier. And I'm not even mentioning lower tiers..
So tell me how can you justify something like that.
Even super heavies like Maus or tier 8 VK have a weak spots on the lower plate....

@mellow cape I do agree with you on that but I think those advantages are very minor, like it has 240mm of AP pen versus the 245mm of APCR however even with better AP normalisation they are pretty much identical in the vast majority of circumstances, or the top speed of the 140 is 55 versus the 50 of the t62a but due to better terrain resistance stats the t62a accelerates faster

Ferdinand is useless compared to other Heavily Armoured TDs at it's tier. It's armour is crap.....

mellow cape
#

@wind flower Pretty much all 4 of the 'heavily armored' tier 8 TDs are mediocre at best and downright bad in most cases
Ferdinand - pretty much no armor against pramo, and its very slow. Worse effective armor than Jpanther II which is much faster and carries the same gun.
T28 - way too slow and way too little armor for its speed, also sides can be penned with HE quite easily.
T28 prot - same problem as T28, way too slow and way too little armor for its speed, but the gun is great. I'd say both of them are worse than ferdinand but this is at least better than T28 because it has a turret.
AT 15 - hated the T28? Lower alpha to 190, and add an easy to hit hatch so that anyone can pen you. The gun is ok at best if you can keep firing it but otherwise not that good and the pen (especially gold pen) is pathetic for a tier 8 TD. You could choose to use the 250 alpha gun but that drops the already bad pen even more.

The T28 is easily the worst tank in the game for its tier. There is not a single good quality of the t28. The armor, which is supposed to be it’s strength like it’s tier 9 counterpart, is easily pennable with AP. Terrible traverse, terrible speed, ok gun, no angle tho, and the side armor is HE-able.
I’d say the gun of the T28 Prot makes up for a lot of it’s bad qualities. That gun is just so good

Why did Foch even get a autoloader? The shit is broken
Have the highest wr and they are buffing it again by giving it faster reload 🤦‍♂️

@exotic sparrow should of just changed the alpha damage and made it slower no need for rof buff

exotic sparrow
#

@lost mesa stop crying please, it is not a buff, is it a nerf you moron.

latent snow
#

Yeah they made it so it cant clip out tanks like the grille with HE.

lost mesa
#

That's not gonna change the fact the tank will still be over powered, as it has a front armor similar to E3 and and is just as fast as mediums... Where's the balance in that?

exotic sparrow
#

@lost mesa armor similar to E3, what are talking about?? Have you ever seen these 2 tanks...? You can pen foch fronatally with HEAT from tier X heavies, but you have hit a tiny cupola on E3 that is nowhere near "similar", but yeah tell more bullshit things like this... 😆

Can they fix shit like this, I couldn't pen the sides of Is7 3 times in row from 90° shot with my Wz121 I know it's a Russian bias but still it cost my carry of the game and Master class

Yes, its really good once you get the hang of it
It basically is peek a boom, you wait for someone to shoot or pull out around a corner when you are unspotted, use your superb aim time to quickly put in a shot and then go back into hiding

indigo knot
#

Actually Foch needs the nerf to armour....
They should have had kept the clip reload same after the alpha nerf but they didn't do that and Heat alpha is similar (545) no nerf was seen on the open test...Foch deserved more nerf
In pub games where less gold is fired you can yolo on a medium or some heavy and win the engagement unscathed

formal vale
#

I'd say that the Foch needs its weakspots nerfed back to what they were previously. I'm entirely fine with it having a good frontal plate so long as it isn't braindead easy to play. Removing weakspots is just a bad idea and idk why WG thought it would help the game in any way to buff the Foch's weakspots.

solemn dagger
#

I want the reload of the t67 to be normal again. It used to be like 3.6 seconds

lost mesa
#

@exotic sparrow a experienced player will load gold and pen the front armor, however don't forget that 95% are not 60%+ or even experienced and will struggle against it hence the reason it has such high win rate, it got speed, armor + the autoloader which can easily put a tier 10 heavy tank on low hp and even clip off some tier 9s and tier 10 tanks like grille. All of that with no trade off.
This is just like fv back when it when was new, anyone could hide behind a bush deal 4k game every game until it got nerfed..

And if you call this balanced then you are living under a rock or just doesn't want it nerfed because you're playing it every single game

orchid grove
#

They should just strip the 155mm autoloader from the Foch, and replace it with a 4 shell version of the 50 B gun, and also remove all the armor buffs they gave it too

exotic sparrow
#

@lost mesa
Look you don't understand what you are talking about. I'm not saying that foch isnt strong, I just don't think it is OP. And the last thing I wasn't saying that foch isnt strong, I was just saying that you are dumb as hell, because you are seeing the issue only black and white, plus you said he would get Buffed, but WG is taking the alpha away, exactly because of the reason that you are crying here about. So after the NERF (not BUFF), it will have some armor, bc nobody has problem loading prem these days (ofc you will find people who don't...), but it will not be able to clip any tanks anymore. So why are crying here????

If they can make the rangefinder easily pennable again I’ll have no problem with it

Whenever I see a Foch I just switch to prammo, Foch has a nice flat frontal plate that prammo can eat

@exotic sparrow they are nerfing the alpha damage but at the same time, buffing the rof which brings the dpm back to about where it is right now. That isn't enough, it will still out perform almost every tds while being fast as a medium in terms of top speed and acceleration, and on top of that, it also has one of the best camo ratings out of all tier 10 tds.

You don't think the tank is OP? Then explain the jump in wr from update 6.1 where it was sitting at 58% similar to other tds, to update 6.2 where it all of sudden was sitting at almost 63% wr, above all of tanks in tier 10.
Did everyone suddenly get really good or what?

unique scaffold
#

@exotic sparrow have some respect before cursing a person, not everyone is as 'good' as you. Actually no, you're not even good after i checked ur stats so you might aswell even shut up lol, are you actually saying that the foch is not OP? Man you are a living under a rock. Having amazing armor, gun, and speed, and an autoloader that can two shot a lot of tanks with HE, is extremely stupid. Have a bit of respect for others. <@&481447501690568709>

it's not necessarily a nerf to the gun when the alpha goes down but the DPM compensates

Just nerf the armor on Fochs because it's broken it doesn't have weak spots and the lower plate is like 20/80 to hit

The armor is literally useless if your enemy fires gold...
Even when I angle they just pen me.

round sundial
#

@proven ocean You are wrong.

mellow cape
#

@proven ocean You can angle the foch against meds in a way that they cant pen your front anywhere (except the rangefinder and hatch) even with gold

coarse harness

If you angle they will pen you behind the tracks
I played yesterday and more and more people shoot there

Let's see how the reworked gun perform first

tawny sail
#

For the millionth time. The foch's armour isn't the problem, that's actually farm from it. It's the burst damage that is. And that will change with the alpha rework, making the tank focused on dpm and not masive amounts of burst damage.

Im really just surprised how many people had never heard of the 2 key

WZ120 FT is also pennable by pramo, does it make it any less OP?

@tawny sail thank you, finally somebody who understand how the tank works...

@round sundial u forgot Tiger2 .....pennable by premium rounds
And Foch155 and Tiger2 ....they are OP...
Stats by WG prove that ....

exotic sparrow
#

@round sundial
That's a bit different... You have to have some perspective..

@tawny sail you could argue the other problem is that the single shot gun is just worse in almost every way and should never be used

I'm honestly dying to know, I know this isn't about balance but, do people still have the old tier ones after update 5.5, seriously, I mean I can't access my old account that I think has them on there, so can I get a little bit of information on this topic, pls?

@copper vapor no, they were completely removed from the game, no one has them now

Oh ok, thank you for the information, now I'm not gonna go crazy

My suggestion is nerf foch 155 magazine reload to about 30 second without changing the alpha, small alpha is ridiculos for such a big gun TANK DESTROYER, this one isnt a light tank, also nerf the cupola, that is it. Thanks WG !

@near warren such a hilariously True statement on one of the most important part of the game. Me I’d rather die than miss my hit rate would be higher if it wasn’t for the occasional bouts of ghost shots and rng which I consider to be just part of the mechanics of the the game any way

#

I recommend instead of posting constant nerfs here, put some buffs in. Such as improving the tiger 1 armour.

minor olive
#

Tiger 2 sort of makes up for that doesn’t it? @night grail

night grail
#

So it should have more armour @minor olive It’s a tier 8 tank you numpty.

Every time I try to side scrape, heavily angle my tiger 1 tank, it always seems the enemies penetrate, I would slightly buff that plate where the radio operator sits. It’s a big weak point, 100mm won’t cut it at tier 7. Don’t bother to buff lower plate/engine area as it will make it too strong. Rest is ok at best.

minor olive
#

Honestly, I don’t know if it really can be buffed. At tier 7 most if not all people switch to use all ammo types. The way I see it is higher pen ammo will pretty much nullify any benefit

unique scaffold
#

@night grail u know that it is getting buffed next update right? do your research before writing paragraphs

queen mason
#

The 30 b could use a gun handling buff, it’s already amazing and I love it but the gun is a little problem for it.

distant river
#

@night grail It's almost as if the tiger is a heavium that had good speed and a great gun to make up for it's armour...

night grail
#

If it’s a heavium then it fails at being as a heavy to be able to reliably bounce shots, and trades, as a medium it fails as it lacks speed it can’t go with the mediums. @distant river

So it just fails at both aspects

distant river
#

So 15hp/t and 44km/h isn't fast enough for you? Stop expecting it to be a heavy or a medium, it's a mix of both, and it does well at both but not the best in class

night grail
#

@distant river That is top speed. It doesn’t run with the medium tanks, that is top speed, the highest it can get. Medium tanks are way higher than this. It is not fast

gray heath
#

do crew exp booster decrease the time it takes for tank mastery?

distant river
#

It's not as fast as a med but it has a much much better gun to make up for it, and if you angle right it will get more bounce. That is what a heavium is @night grail

opal mist
#

Medium tanks dont really go fast like a light tank and the tiger 1 Is fine the way it is.
