Buffing the E75 seems like a bad idea. The rest of the changes seem pretty good, maybe with -3s to reload the Maus gun won't be awful!

McGavin posted:You're going to love this: That....cannot be right. 194mm of pen, substantially higher mobility and 45 degree/s turret traverse would make the VK better than almost every tier 8 medium. I'm not crazy right? The VK3002D is actually good right now, if difficult to play and it struggles against tier 9s because of the bad pen. I cannot imagine the tank being anything but absurd even with just that pen increase, but getting an extremely quick turret and even better speed seems nuts.

the statistic are really lovely from the very dumbest scrub retards driving it backwards while using the 7,5. buff buff buff buff the turret change is big too, the slow-rear end turret was one of its bigger drawbacks

The T-54 gets a bit more, the T-62A gets 50, the 140 gets 41.7, etc. God drat Wargaming are bad at this poo poo. The Merry Marauder posted:That'd be the new gold pen, or are you assuming all prem all the time? I already shoot 90% gold from the VK. I'll switch to the 145 pen shells when I can save money, but I'm not playing the tank to make money, I'm playing it to win games and have fun crushing the enemy tanks underfoot.

Maus gets a ROF and aimtime boost, along with a bunch of pretty massive armor buffs, E50 gets 3 extra degrees of depression...and it goes on.

buffs to german tanks are hard evidence of them being kept short earlier due to russian bias. this previous history of russian bias is hard evidence of german tanks continuing to be kept short due to russian bias. a lack of further buffs to german tanks is hard evidence of them being kept short due to russian bias.

Archenteron posted:Havent played in 6 months, click the thread, see mentions of buffs on tanks, go "Oh cool maybe that shitbox German T9 I have will be worthwhi-" Yeah, they overbuffed the VK45B a while ago; the lower glacis has been tougher than the upper (since they were the same thickness and typically the lower will present a worse angle to downward-arcing shells on level ground.) Hellsau alt account spotted. (Also, you're not supposed to actually get banned, you TK just enough to be blue in the garage 100% of the time.  )

I just noticed the duration.  Correct me if I'm wrong, though, but don't you get a 1-hour ban after like 2 TKs in a single battle or something? How the hell do you get to the point where you can even earn a month-long ban?!Also, ROFLBurger, you're "butte" in-game, right? I think a pubbie complained to me about you for some random TK a couple weeks ago.  I told him something along the lines of, "I'll have top men work on it right now. Top...men...."

wargames posted:E50 dpm buff? Not on the 105mm, but it makes the long 88 less of a loving catastrophe if someone falls for the pubbie trap. Then again, the long 88 being grindable from the Panther 2 also makes that line basically the best line to go up for a recruit account by a mile. e: yeah you can use the long 88 on the E50's stock turret, I mean the VK 3001H is kind of whatever but the tier 6-9 grinds seem easy.

This is exactly what I did like a year-and-a-half ago, except of course without the benefit of this upcoming buff. I'd still recommend it even without this change. The Douchewagen was probably the biggest turd of that line, and the 3001H is more disappointing than anything else, being neither a true HT nor anything resembling a respectable MT anymore. The 3002M is kind of boring (the 3001D is better) and the Panther 2 was a slog both because of the poor gun handling and the sheer amount of XP required to get out of it. Then you're rewarded by the glorious E50, which makes everything better! Protip: free XP the top gun AND the engine immediately.

I really liked the 3002M, I hated the Panther and Panther 2, and the E50 is fantastic but had a horrible stock grind. Now the E50's stock grind appears to be perfectly reasonable with the long 88 after the DPM buff and being unlockable on the Panther 2, the Panther gets actual good damage output, and the Panther 2 is probably going to suck still unless the long 88 turns out to be good on it. The Panther 2 had major module damage issues while being unexceptional and mostly just worse than the FCM for me - I don't know if a comically large gun will make it enjoyable enough for me to farm a T95E2. oh also: quote:VK 30.01 D German Cromwell is actually going to be a Cromwell I guess?

Warcrimes Panther is becoming a bit less poo poo too :o I think the Ausf B is getting better armour overall, right? The lower hull was insane, and the buff to upper and side hull will help, if people don't just pen your turret face. What does the E5 armour nerf mean? " Armor at side of the roller is reduced from 254 to 76.2 mm." Is that on the sides of the lower plate? Did it have a 254mm area on its side somewhere?

Currently the only spots that have 254mm armor on the E5 are a couple small areas of the turret face, and across a large area of the upper hull. e: oh wait if you shoot the front track wheel from the side there's a 254mm bit of armor directly behind it, that's probably what they mean.
