Why is the 2s38 still at 10.3 while other similar vehicles that play the same role have gone up? The RDF/LT has gone to 12.0 whilst having worse stats on every front minus gun depression, penetration, and size of vehicle.
2s38
Cons:
•big
•less vertical guidance
•52 less pen than rdf
Pros:
•advanced thermals
•smoke grenade
•ess
•lws
•.5 second reload
•aphe
•more ammo stowage
•can’t be penned frontally by .50
•self entrenching
Also too powerful in a full down-tier, which is ironic since I’ve seen arguments about the kvt not getting moved because it would be too powerful in a downtier. (Opinion)
RDF/LT
Pros:
•276 pen
•small
•gun depression
Cons:
•gen 1 thermals
•same speed as 2s38
•less ammo stowage
•no smoke
•no lws
•no ess
•can be .50 frontally
•slower fire rate
My proposal would be to move 2s38 to 11.0 - 11.7 and move rdf to same br (even though it’s worse in my opinion and based on the stats)
Please only post if you have something valuable to add or have a solid, well thought out counter argument.
Ad hominem attacks are against the rules so please be mindful. Using my stats in an attempt to discredit and side rail the discussion is a very poor show of character… I’m average at best, and I’m well aware of that. So attacking me personally by sharing my stats isn’t useful and is considered ad hominem fallacy.
Please take note of the following
Spoiler
• To avoid a weak argument: Attackers may have a weak or unsupported argument, and resort to a personal attack as an easier way
to undermine their opponent. • To distract the audience: By shifting the focus to the person, the attacker can divert attention from their own lack of evidence or
logical reasoning. • To provoke an emotional reaction: Personal attacks can be emotionally charged and more persuasive to some audiences than a logical
argument.
• Insecurity and ego protection: Name-calling and other personal attacks can be a primitive defense mechanism to protect a fragile ego.
By tearing down someone else, the person doing the attacking attempts to elevate their own status. This can also be a result of deep-seated insecurities or low self-esteem.
• Playing a different game: In some cases, a person is not trying to win a logical argument but is instead trying to “win” a competition of reputation. By undermining their opponent’s character, they seek to have their audience disregard what the opponent is saying. This tactic is common in political discourse.
• Learned behavior: For some, resorting to insults is a learned, maladaptive pattern, stemming from observing others engage in the behavior during childhood. It can become a habitual, rather than a thoughtful, response to conflict.
• Distraction: It can be a way to distract from the core topic, especially if the subject matter is complex and the person lacks the skills to discuss it effectively.
