Well, based on my personal experience, 7.7 heavies are mostly dogshit, aside from Maus! I respect anyone who can play them well because it’s the only br where I didn’t find my 6.7 was struggling against in an uptier, most of my heavies at 7.7 are struggle except for the fatboi Maus, I don’t even want to play them in an uptier because they are just carrying dead weight with no real advantage.

Conqueror is pretty good, only downside is its cupola tumour
Meh. Any Brit 20lber (APDS) can one or two shot a Maus, HEAT is also available, and 155mm HE slingers can OHK them fairly easily as well.
I feel bad for all heavies in WT. Too squishy if you know the weak spots even at tier, but too strong if you don’t need to care about weak spots. I am looking at you APHE, you make killing things that require precision much fun for incompetents who need to learn to aim or use a different shells for once.
.
Also. Yeah. FV4202 is superior to the Conq unfortunately. Slightly less armour (better angle for protection though most of the time), but still has a cannon that says F you significantly more often and has the same or less chance for shell shatter/nonpen. If the Conq had no shell shatter… Then it would actually be worth using.
All parts of a vehicle have to be considered if it is worth it. Not just firepower. Unfortunately too many peeps look at the firepower and armour only. Not all the effects that go into it.
My only issues with heavies is CAS spam, no issues with how other players kill me with any ground vehicles lol
Centy Mk. 10 is pretty good in my experience since it gets the 105mm L7, with a full stab too. Honestly one of my favorite guns ingame.
My gripes with it are mainly the BR compression though that’s not a fault of the tank itself.
It’s just slower at moving and reloading than the Vickers too, large silhouette, the armour plate is redundant at this BR which makes it unnecessarily overweight.

Confirmation bias (Arguably also survivorship)
Not really, even my buddies were questioning it, because if I played Italy, USSR, or France we got an uptier immediately
-3 gun depression, and every enemy has HEAT FS or HEAT kinda makes that hard to do. For pretty much any of those Soviet tanks. Same with the French. Pretty much the maus is the only HEAT survivor.
It does? I get hit with a pebble and the whole thing explodes 😂 Tbf I’ve seen that happen to UK tanks too.
That really shouldn’t have penned at that high angle, with a 6.0’s stock round vs an 8.3 t-55, but I have seen crazier things happen.
A long time ago, I .50 cal’d a Leo 2 to death in my M1 abrams
Amazing bias, I dropped my cup of tea in fright

So we’re just gonna ignore the exceptional cannons on all of these. Soviet heavies at 7.7 are still pretty survivable if you engage from range. Hell, you can even brawl with them if you’re careful. French heavies at 7.7 also have exceptional guns, and decent reloads.
I play both of these pretty frequently, uptiers are only really an inconvenience with the French line and that’s only because you’re facing things that can effectively engage out to the same range as you.
You literally say you are heavily biased towards the fox

Doesn’t mean he’s wrong.

Idc if the fox goes to 8.0 or 7.3 but saying stuff like that means he is most likely exaggerating or stretching the truth to try to make the fox stay as it is or be better

Overmatch can be wacky at times.
Funno how thin the side playes are but it is the same idea behind how tiger 88 pens the centurio forehead
I’m pretty sure IRL there’s so much stuff between the commander and gunner/loader areas of the turret that even without the proposed APHE fixes, no fragmentation would be able to go into the cupola and kill everyone in the tank. But as always, conveniently not modeled.

I’ll have to say, the more I play 7.7, the more I hate the marders. They can’t seem to do anything to my mk3 without their MILANs, but they always take out my gun before I get a shot off and my mg is useless. So we’re both just sitting there spraying the other without end.

So am I, it’s why I am trying to maintain it’s realistic status in game by arguing with Gopniks and preventing the devs from taking their wails of misery seriously, because it’s happened in the past and I do not want my favourite vehicle ruined due to some whining about it when it’s completely accurate so far.
