Mario wasn't sure if this Jeb guy was a good influence on Yoshi.

The 128 on the Rhoomba isn't accurate enough to avoid being frustrating in its optimal range and I remind myself of that every time I wish I had more alpha.

If it helps at all, I was on the other team and we didn't have fun either. 183s are stupid as gently caress on either side.


E: Is it worth running optics on the ISU-152? Thing is blind as a bat so I'm considering just doing vents/gld/rammer

I just go with the flow stay behind the main push and use pubbies to spot.

So what is the purpose of the Caernarvon? As being a slower Centurion doesn't really seem to be much of a benefit in exchange for mildly better gun handling.

It's way better than the Centurion 1 deal with it ross. It also has more hp and I actually bounced stuff occasionally in mine. I dunno, but my Caernarvon had a noticeably higher winrate and dpg than my other tier 8 heavies.

Can the E-50 even mount a short 75? I've seen Pattons with short 105s though, those are always a riot. Also when the IS-4 became tier 10, a few people would drive it with the D-25, not realizing they got the top gun for free.

Or they didn't get the top gun for free because they were still losing their way towards it when the conversion happened.

It can't. I'm guessing he meant the 75mm L/70 which is "short" compared to the L/100. Although I'd love to see an E50 with the stub gun.

Yes, I meant the L70. Realizing that madness took a couple of steps though:
  1. Oh he does ~100 damage, he's shooting HE
  2. No wait, there's not much deviation to the damage and he's actually bouncing some stuff, he must be using the L100
  3. After actually looking at the model, the realization hit me. I was actually quite surprised as well that the E50 can mount a T6 gun. Though I guess it's best used for the duels against the howitzer Pattons.

Same and I was in an SU-85B. Even though it's open-topped, the splash is worthless against anything. he was hitting me for 25 and less per shot.

HE talk? Just 2 hours ago I was in a T14 facing off with another T14 as we swapped gold rounds and with both of us below 100 HP he mysteriously switched to HE, dealing a massive 30 damage while I murdered him with more glod. I taunted him in chat with HE? lol etc and he came back with gold? lol! Gonna assume he ran out of gold and had nothing but HE left but who the gently caress can tell.

Tiers 5 and 6 are the most profitable if you don't have a tier 8 premium.

FV304 and SU-85 are the best non-premium tanks for making money. They have the highest net income per game as shown here.

HE talk: past a certain point, the HE mechanic literally stops working. If you don't have some arbitrary amount of base damage or pen on the shell, the shells simply stop working like HE. The 57mm HE are basically worthless even against Waffentragers and the like, and the Luch's 3cm HE shells simply will never cause partial damage even to the gun shield of a WT100.

HE is a poo poo mechanic and is part of the reason artillery is poo poo to play and play against.

Note I did 960 to the side of a T30 with my E100's HE last night, finishing the 'damage three modules' heavy mission. Good times.

Reverse-HE talk: Had a KV-2 duel with a pubbie a while back. He was shooting AP. Not even the (still kinda lovely and unreliable)premium one, just the completely worthless vanilla AP. I pointedly ignored him bouncing shells off my turret front while blowing away a poor Crusader trying to come to his rescue, the calmly reloaded and blew him up with two HE while he kept trying and failing to pen. :downs:

Ah- Smug Mode.

One of the early TD missions for the T28 HTC or whatever the gently caress it is called wants you to damage a module...HE is still the best way to do that I think. Might be why some people are shooting it out of tanks you wouldn't expect.

You know what the best derp is? WT100 with 150mm HE. Sadly that's not a heavy so I used the E100 instead.

gotta kill dem crews.
