As above. Give us some explanations and intentions on the following vehicles + any listed below by the community (I may have forgotten.)

T249. (This tank is an absolute priority it is disgusting that it has remained in the game and needed to be addressed LAST MONTH. Let alone now. I do not care what the stats say you should never be able to clip a heavy or a TD with a light in less than 2 seconds.)

ROGAL/LEMAN. (These things are simply oppressive super heavies.)

TARAN. (Oppressive the only reason it may have balanced stats (which btw is the complete wrong way to look at certain tanks) is because people will YOLO with it.)

AVRE (it's been in the game for years now and still regularly ruins matches for people unlucky enough to fight them.)

NIGHTSTALKER. (The original for this year's broken stuff. In what world is that armour with that DPM allowable.)

WIESEL MK1. (I don't do CW much but I've only seen these things shred. The only reason they aren't insanely busted now is......)

GAU 8: (another minigun AA platform in a tank game.)

MOLOT. (Front towards enemy an pray no one is smart enough to fire HESH. The Tank.)

GROM: (let's not kid ourselves. That velocity. That alpha. Not ok. But in the star studded cast recently this pales and that's TERRIFYING for what comes next.)

T110E4: (the one tech tree tanks that I consider overtuned)

I'm sure there are more but I don't want the community to forget about these at bare minimum.

Someone forgot about the AAT60, arty, and HE in general

Let them start with haste and begin with the 4 BROKEN tanks in game that worry every single player.
Mainly the T249 , Taran , Avre and the Nightstalker. The others i would not call broken they are op yes but not broken.

if you cant deal with them, thats a skill issue

#

not a balance issue

I've never found AAT60 too bad but that's mostly because I flank them or force them out of position. So I personally haven't had too much bother with them.

I don't play CW so I only put up the most notables there though I will admit a FV with true vision is oppressive and does lock down maps pretty badly until sees them and counters them.

Type 5 is a difficult one. It's a bit of a meme with the long reload and HE splasher but it's definitely oppressive for light armoured tanks and lower tier tanks if you do happen to go down the heavy flank with a light vehicle. Idk that one does feel more like a skill issue then being utterly busted but I could be wrong. Personal experience with types is that they are only an issue if you are locked in a corridor with them all other times they are an XP piñata.

Artillery: yeaaaaaaaah Inna just leave that one here as earmarked to be worked on. The rebalance a year or so ago that gave them better accuracy better reload and worse damage was just a flat out buff. And on top of that they added more health so your light tanks couldn't get rid of them and the counter battery was less effective. Arty should never be survivable. It is a support class designed to dig out entrenched enemies. That's it. That's all it should have been.

I do not agree with you on the grom same as I do not agree on type 5 e3 and aat60

Whilst people are still paying £40 a pop for these two new BS mini gun tanks and that weseal Pos they ain’t gonna address anything they’ve got they’re cash cows

Unfortunately I have to agree.

Controversial take, fv4005 is fine, super big hitbox, and the long reload allows you to get up close and personal pretty quickly.

On the other hand, the recent technical fix to autocannons has made the fv107 a monster, not at the same peak as the tanks listed in the thread, but it needs an alpha nerf

Fv cw can be fixed by it being limited to 1-2 per team and aat60 can be fixed by giving it the 390 alpha it should have wesil mk2 can be fixed by giving it a 180 degrees of turret rotation like it has irl rogal and leman can do with general nerfs and t249 needs a complete overhaul

It needs to be needed to its real life constraints which it it can only fire in 48 or the rounds start spalling in the barrel completely disabling the gun

#

I say a 48 round burst then a 7-15 second reload but that still might be to much

Also camo and view range nerf

The tank needs to be dealt with properly the first time or it’ll still be broken and WG will only nerf it once knowing their track record of either not nerfing things or just nerfing it once
