Fox is still overpowered

I already have my decoration slots filled though, all 4 Anime Pillows on the back, the Hussar’s helmet because I am just that Dashing, and the psycho killer mask on the lens cover hatch.

Normally I’d say skill issue, but this is really more of a taste issue.

fair enough

not fair enough, get that disgusting sight out of here

my good sir, you automatically become quite dashing indeed.

Its a tactical decision. Players see anime pillows and either don’t care (tactically neutral) or get annoyed, annoyed players play worse, tactical advantage. Besides if they aim for the pillows they aim away from my crew.

counter it with the xm800t. it works like a charm

Marder APC is also a decent counter, you just need to keep front towards him, and spray the instant he pops up. Turm 3 also counters a Fox if you have good situational awareness.

With quick reflexes, anything with okay front armor and a top mounted HMG can knock a fox rush out too. Swap to HMG and aim for his turret. The hull is super trolly, but the turret is paper and reliably penetrated by 25 to 30mm penetration ammo.

Sorry, can I get a mirror in here?

The front is bright orange no?

I think most ppl in WT look for moving targets / targets making sounds

Also isn’t it fictional?

The entire upper half of the Fox is bright orange, and the bottom is white.

He practically looked right at me.

Isn’t it fictional though?

If someone disabled fictional skins and thus got killed by a bright orange tank then they deserved it.

But it wouldn’t be bright orange for them lol

And they deserve it for giving themselves a tactical disadvantage

By using a bright orange camo I am choosing style over function, putting myself at a disadvantage to look good

if someone disables fictional camos because they can’t handle seeing unrealistic looking paint in their video game then that’s on them.

Is the camo from the marketplace, or from WTlive? You can’t see non marketplace skins.

Marketplace, its a legit camo not a user skin.

So to re-iterate does anyone have a valid point why the fox shouldn’t go up in br?

Because it’s stats alone blow every other tank out of the water.

Many people have already given you several reasons for saying no, but you keep asking until the result suits you.

So long as you ignore the fact it has;

  • No Stabiliser
  • No LRF
  • No TVD
  • NO AGMs
  • Lowest fire rate of any auto-cannon
  • No Armour (50 cal can kill it)

Then yeah, sure, if you solely look at its shell pen, its better than any other tank in game (though until you start looking at better IFVs with better guns with better shell pen)

TLDR, its a bit better in some respect that equivalent IFVs like the XM800, but barely.

Please provide a single reason it should move up other than “it can kill me when it shoots me in the back when im not looking” like every other tank in the game can.

Con:
•no stab
• (nobody has thermals at 7.7 so that’s a irrelevant point)
• slow rounds per min. (Really not a flaw, learn to aim better, I actually found it to be rather stable while driving, and continuously firing.

Pros:
•tiny
•faster than everything at its own br while being stock
•very high turret traverse
•very high pen for an auto cannon
•great armor, apparently can live 105s according to my videos, in addition to .50 cal’s.

That is a skill issue. You can kill a Fox with a 50 cal if you aim for the weakspots, but to claim a Fox can withstand a 105mm shell… Is just BS

Lower than the XM800

its slightly faster than XM-800 and AML-90 but barely.

Again, no smaller than a XM800 or AML-90 and bigger than a Wiesel.

If anything, it’ll be 8.0 at most. 7.7 is fine, it (and similar tanks) just make playing any non autocannon lightly armoured vehicle miserable (AMLs, most french things, BMPs, and anything else without armour). This is mostly due to autocannons being flat out better in any 1v1 situation with another light tank.
