~7.7 heavy tanks desperately need a reload buff

[Miragen]

The Conqueror has Panzer 4 levels of armor? What?

Did you read half my comment or something? 70mm of frontal armor weakspot.

Actually less armor than a Panzer IV.

That happens to other rounds aswell. It’s not exclusive to APDS or the Conqueror.

Those other rounds are not 120mm APDS with a 20 second reload.

[AverageWehraboo]

Actually less armor than a Panzer IV.

You can’t make this up lmao.

Those other rounds are not 120mm APDS with a 20 second reload.

That’s right the other rounds are something like 122mm APCBC with a 27 second reload.

@Miragen

Except it’s 76 mm, and it’s angled at 44°, making it far more effective than a 80 mm plate at 12°.

Still not nearly strong enough to stop tank cannons at that BR, but much stronger than the armor of even the Pz.IV H with additional track armor.

[Miragen]

You can’t make this up lmao.

You’re right, I don’t need to make it up when it’s factually true,

Flakpanzer 341 full penned my conquerers turret face with his AP round yesterday, and exploded and killed all my crew. 49mm of pen against the literal strongest part of the conquerers turret btw.

@AverageWehraboo

That happens to other rounds aswell. It’s not exclusive to APDS or the Conqueror.

Also yesterday, sent my 120mm APDS round straight through the chest of a DF105s gunner (+some spall) and didnt even turn him yellow lol. Zero damage whatsoever done with that round through the center front of his tank.

You can aim properly all you like with APDS, its so unreliable that you cant help but laugh at the absurdity, plus the shell shatter mechanic being incredibly unpredictable.

At least the russian 122s immediately delete whatever they penetrate.

[AverageWehraboo]

Next time be a bit less obvious with these troll posts.

[Miragen]

Where am I trolling?

[AverageWehraboo]

Move your mouse by 1 pixel.

[AverageWehraboo]

So True! It’s totally only the Conqueror that suffers! Russian bias 122mm op!

[Miragen]

That’s called missing your shot, weakspots don’t cease to exist just because you’re not aiming at them.

Jumbo no longer has a frontal weakspot because I aimed next to it.

[AverageWehraboo]

It’s not a weakspot if it’s 1 pixel wide.

@AverageWehraboo

No offense but you do realize this thread is mainly for Realistic Battles? It seems like you’re arguing from an Arcade standpoint because you never played any 7.7 RB match.

YES! YES! Finally! Another person that can’t support his claims with evidence starts this nonsense…

So please tell me, is there any difference in ammo detonation, effective armor, shell shatter, etc between AB/RB?

Also, you say this, while you having an obvious botting record, which is against TOS btw…

@AverageWehraboo

Seems like 90% of the time when he actually aims it’s a 1 shot.

And? It is still much worse than alloy APDS, or even solidshot/HEAT. The only thing that is worse than carbide APDS is APRC.

@AverageWehraboo

Nothing happens because he’s shooting empty space like I said.

And when i point out the trash damage of carbide APDS, i am not talking about shots like this, but shots, where a direct hit makes a module/crew member orange.

@AverageWehraboo

In the very video you listed to support your argument you can even see him eat a 600mm pen atgm to the face with it doing 0 damage.

Yeah and? It could have been caught up in the barrel, or hit the endge of the mantlet.

@AverageWehraboo

The IS-6 is better in angle pen, post pen, side armor and is slightly faster. Everything else that matters is worse than on the T32E1 yet one “isn’t too bad” and the other one is “the saddest heavy tank”. At the time of the IS-6 video it was still 7.3 so that would explain why he only had downtiers in the IS-6 and mostly uptiers in the T32. Of course the IS-6 does better in a 7.7 game than the T32 does in a 8.7 game.

And yet, every one of those heavy tanks at the same/similar BR yielded him a better result, than the Conqueror, and he didn’t just leave the match because of suffering, which he did in the Conq video.

@AverageWehraboo

Ammo not exploding happens to all rounds in the game.

You mean it not exploding, or blacking out?

@AverageWehraboo

Realism doesn’t matter when it’s about balance.

And i agree with that. I was just pointing out that the guys were talking about realism there.

@AverageWehraboo

Pixel hunting with arcade aiming

LOL.

Why don’t we test it out ourselves?

It was pixelhuntuing with the Breda, but do you know why?
BECAUSE THE BREDA CAN’T LOLPEN IT UNLIKE EVERY OTHER SHELL AROUND 7.7 WITH OVERPRESSURE CAPABILITIES.

@AverageWehraboo

Irrelevant. You won’t get the second shot on someone with a full stab and a shorter reload.

What? So the Conq magically has a shorter reload than 90mm guns? In which universe?
Even if we talk about only the soviet 122mm guns, even if the Conq shoots you first, you are likely going to survive, so you can just get back to cover, and reload :)
You also get your gunner back faster than he reloads.

@AverageWehraboo

Good luck doing that when the Conqueror is hull down.

Is it always in hulldown?

@AverageWehraboo

You never tried that in a real match.

I did, that’s why i know…

@AverageWehraboo

None of the tanks in the picture can reliably pen a Jumbo at any range over 100m.

False, again.

@AverageWehraboo

Stuff like the Ikv 103 can pen it too yet I was talking about actual tank guns you will encounter not TDs or tanks like the ARL44.

And neither was i talking about those.

@AverageWehraboo

Actually funny. The Jumbo 76 is much more forgiving and easier to use than the Tiger 1 or T-34.

Easier to use for bad players. Give the other tanks and a Jumbo to a good player and he will perform well with all of them.

@AverageWehraboo

The Jagdpanther doesn’t even have a cupola

@AverageWehraboo

and the MG port is so much easier to hit than the one on a Jumbo or KT.

And the MG port is not an actual weak spot on a Jagdpanther. It is a volumetric hell with a strong cast ball with ~180mm raw thickness.

Spoiler

@AverageWehraboo

Both are unfair and one tank has the upper hand.

The second one is yes, the first one is no. A skilled Tiger player can easily deal with a Jumbo.

@AverageWehraboo

That’s just a lie the Jumbo has far better acceleration and turning ability.

They have comparable overall mobility.

@AverageWehraboo

Are you serious? Where did I say the Ikv 103 should go to 7.3? The Ikv and the Jagdpanzer 4-5 are casemates and easy to deal with. Those are balanced HEAT tanks. On the other hand vehicles like the Ikv91, M50, Fiat 6614 are way too low and outperform similar BR tanks.

Funny how the screenshot you put right after it proves my point:

The only HEAT slinger you named was the Ikv 103, you didn’t even hint that you was talking about the higher BR ones.

@AverageWehraboo

I don’t know if you’re lying on purpose or just misread that.

Okay, i misread that. You only said HEAT slingers should move up. You are right there.

@AverageWehraboo

Happened multiple times in a live game.

??

[O_HOgameplay]

That was just a trash shot. Aim better next time. There are 2 barn sized parts on both sided of the turret you could have shot, yet you shot into the barrel. Congrats!

[AverageWehraboo]

Flakpanzer 341 full penned my conquerers turret face with his AP round yesterday, and exploded and killed all my crew. 49mm of pen against the literal strongest part of the conquerers turret btw.

So? Autocannons ignoring armor is nothing new and I’ve died to it too. That’s doesn’t only happen to the Conqueror it’s a known issue.

Also yesterday, sent my 120mm APDS round straight through the chest of a DF105s gunner (+some spall) and didnt even turn him yellow lol. Zero damage whatsoever done with that round through the center front of his tank.

Random damage happens to any APDS, APCR and even APHE

APCR hits the gun directly and doesn’t even turn it yellow.

[Miragen]

It’s across the entire length left to right and easily 10-15cm in height.

[O_HOgameplay]

@AverageWehraboo

APCR hits the gun directly and doesn’t even turn it yellow.

And agai a horrible shot from your side. Of course the breech should have been damaged, but you also aimed horribly.

[AverageWehraboo]

I shot the breach directly. Where should I shot if not that spot.

[AverageWehraboo]

“Personal experience doesn’t matter”

“Personal experience does matter”

Choose one

[AverageWehraboo]

I did, that’s why i know…

You have 0 matches in any 7.7 tank in RB

“Personal experience doesn’t matter”

???
Maybe answer the questions!

@AverageWehraboo

“Personal experience does matter”

You have claimed, that he would do worse in any other similar BR heavy tanks. I just provided proof to the opposite, but of course then it does not matter.
