35mm SPAAs ultra deserved nerf

why

2km instead of 4km.
still exageratly OP. u say i should press WASD? well there u have, now i want to hear ur next goddamn excuse.

Spoken like someone who never experienced helis back when radar’s basically were terrible against helicopters. Friendly reminder the REAL GEPARD was effective up to 5.5km (3.5 miles) Helis need a counter AA is that.

well.dont relly on saclos atgms XD. tace big bad boy zukoss. spam it from helipad as rock arty. or just do some chuk noris stuf . works in indian movies olwys XD;go for early kils. u are big fast. looking dangerous. at last explode like start D

how can a counter to 4km capable half-useless ATGMs be the Gepard?
i could tell u the time i spent 4 Falangas in 1 Somua SM and didn’t kill it.

Author has massive skill issue and doesn’t understand how to balance vehicles.
Autocanon SPAAs need only one nerf - remove APHE belts, they should have 3-4 HE round per 1 APHE, that should be their only main belt option in terms of AP containing ones + leave 40 pieces of APDS

ejem, u forgot about AHEAD.

I think what would be nice is if APHE were to be removed from the SPAA to stop them from using weakspots :)

Doesn’t work on Chrome either.

i’m using chrome and it works for me sometimes.

I think they should get apfsds full belts and go 0.4 less br

AHEAD isnt even that good lol

I’d say 2KM. More than enough on all the maps

Not a bad idea. I’d say 3 seconds personally

Yeah SPAA is way too OP but then again its hard to balance. SPAA will always be OP against aircraft, especially missiles/radar SPAA. Yes CAS is pretty good against tanks but there are counters, like CAP and SPAA, but against SPAA the only counter is spawn camping

I can tell you’re raging. You died to a SPAA with 1.5 - 2km effective range.

Maybe you were in an aircraft that hasn’t gotten separate ground BR yet.
Either way, there’s a reason I do angled maneuvers toward SPAA at 8.3, and it’s to not be an easy target.

Most ~8.7 CAS is equal or notably better than Gepards: Alpha Jets, Saab-105, A32A, F-84Fs, Buccaneer S1, Yak-28B, B-66B.

It’s better than API-T/HE belts like the ones it already has.

I have died to a Gepard targetting me at +4km in a match, i was literally running from it in the Mi-24A, and i almost crash with a mountain cuz i was too focused looking at it’s tracers to dodge it’s bullets. The fact it can shoot over 5.5km is annoying asf, especially cuz technically Gepard was made to take down helicopters, and it does it well, really really well, so well it seriously deserves a nerf.

Why can a goddamn SPAA out-range the missiles that A LOT of people call out as the best ones due to their range (4km Falanga vs. 3.75km BGM-71C, the best AGM u can see in a non-soviet helicopter)?

Aight, helicopters are another thing.
I’ve dodged Gepards at 1.2km, and died at 3.2km.
How I maneuver, along with any luck they might have on their side, will impact their accuracy based on the maneuvers I do.

For me, I’m comfortable getting 2.5km away from player Gepards in matches, but I’m also not running my helicopters like yourself.

Minor maneuvers in hover screws up radar guidance, THIS IS NOT ADVICE; Learning this trick is something you can only see for yourself when using a Gepard against a player doing this, otherwise it’s impossible to know. And who knows, maybe they patched it and my few month old information is dated as well.

Gepards don’t need a nerf, otherwise you have to raise the BRs of almost all aircraft at their BR.
Maybe helicopters need to be looked at. Maybe there are some more tricks to learn.

Or give them their respective AHEAD belts and send them all to 9.0/10.0.
