TBF the KT has turret bustle ammo whereas the KV-220 is stored on the floor. But I agree that the KV-220 should have a better reload (5.9s or something along those lines) and be moved up to 6.3.
I wouldn’t really want to move the IS-4/6
It would be better to:
Make the E100, and Somua 8.0
And possibly move up some mediums…
Or in a perfect world, those mediums carrying heat-FS get put at a different br than those not carrying it.
nahh they are not 8.0 material specially the E-100 its just a 3km faster maus and how many you have seen? i have seen like 2-3
KV-220 has a bussel. To the sides, and under the rear hatch. Gaijin just puts it on the floor, so when you get driver ported, or lower plated like usual, the ammo gets ever so slightly damaged then:
The T20 is just better in the most significant aspects (mobility, reload, gun depression), so I don’t see how they should both be the same BR.
I’d be fine with the T25 moving down to 6.0 too since its extremely sluggish.
its almost the same the t34 has good acceleration too not a huge difference
better reload but worse round,
It’s like a trade-off. The KT is very easy to detonate its ammo with lol-penning rounds like T34’s gun, but I wouldn’t say the same when KV-220 is hull-down.
But yes, if the enemy does managed to go through the KV-220’s hull armour, it often explodes 😅

It’s the highest KDr vehicle in the game…
The Maus is very good too, honestly the E100 is more equal to the IS-7 at 8.3 than anything…
But, I know nobody would ever agree to that.
And the Maus can live quite a lot of stuff, despite how common it is, maybe it’s some German voodoo magic, but a lot of things struggle to kill it.
Not as good as the T20’s. And you’re forgetting the much more usable -19km/h reverse speed instead of the mediocre -8km/h for the STP.
Yes.
So the T20 gets better mobility, gun handling, 50.cal… and the STP gets slightly better armour… and smoke barrels?

I’ve played the game since 2016. What does that have to do with tank balance?
Those experienced 400 people are carrying the E100’s K/D

smoke barrels , better round and armor vs better reverse speed, depression and a reload, i would say they are on the same level
Tbf I am carrying the T58’s KDr lol. Still like a 4.18~ or something
if 400 expririanse players play a tank it will have way better stats than a tank that is getting played by 100k people, the same thing with the Kv220 if it was a TT tank it would have way worse stats

Is the better armour and smoke barrels really worth sacrificing the 50.cal, reverse speed, and gun depression?
I don’t think the armour is good enough to make them equal.
It’s partially why French vehicles and Italian vehicles keep getting moved up despite most of them being mediocre / good (but not OP).
the 0.50cal doesn’t make a huge difference in 6.3, so yea i thing a better round and smoke to cover your retreat makes up for the depression and reverse ( the T20 is better but not way better than the t34 if one moves the other must move too =)
my mistake better kd than the kv220 sorrry
