M1296 Fuse Round

Interesting question to the folks of this forum, does this Dragoons MK310 not work or am I just completely ass at this game? I’ve played for a long time and I finally got the Dragoon to recomplete my US Ground Tier but I noticed the proxy fuse MK310 round doesn’t seem to work on drones? I have my proxy fuse setting in-game to “radius” and this round just doesn’t react to being even next to a drone.

Just curious to see if this is a genuine skill issue, keep in mind I also went into test drive and shot at helicopters and planes and still like zero radius fuse.

It only has HE-TF, you have to aquire a lock to set the detonation distance?

Did not play it, just a rough guess

it will only proxy if you have irs-t lock on the air target you are shooting at

Or by setting the distance manually

like laser range finder/manual range setting? i didt know u can do that

kinda unrelated but the dragoon is hella overtiered and is pretty ass, im impressed that u manage to spade it

LR 100%, not sure about the manual setting though.

Gaijin seems to be suprised that the community doesn’t like a bushmaster only vehicle for the 100th time

all shitmaster IFV can go down 0.3 - 0.7 in BR to make them a little more usable. Fire Rate >>>>> Penetration but gaijin doesnt care

I chose XM246 over every single shitmaster above 9.0 cuz the XM246 is way, way better at killing tanks than the shitmaster gun

my own stat to show (i know the Dragoon stat is super low, I couldnt bring myself to play more than 2 game in it cuz it sucks):

No point doing that against anything, just let the tracker set the fuse automatically. Wouldn’t be surprised if the fuse doesn’t work as intended though

yea i think the irs-t lock is still the easiest way to use to fuze shell, i just didt know the laser range finder also works

I didn’t even know it could lock

I’m retarded, sorry guys

how do u play the dragoon? u got 1 k/d in it which is meh but still better than me

Two thing, get a lock with the irst (you will need to research the lrf for that), and make sure that youre on the correct mode for the fuze, depending from your key binds you could switch to impact mode by mistake

Compared to the 9.3 bushmasters it’s undertiered lol, compression is a wonderful thing

The slow firerate is made up for with high accuracy in real life, would be a good compromise if they reflected that in game

seem to work differently for the m247. these will proxy even without a lock.

Because the M247 has the M822 HE-VT rounds (proximity fuze) and the M1296 has the MK310 HE-TF rounds (time fuze). The fact that so many of you can’t read something so simple on the stat cards is baffling.

EDIT: Just so everybody is clear on the difference, a proxy fuze detonates when it gets close to a surface, a time fuze detonates after a set time. I didn’t think people would need this explained to them, but here we are.

They could replace it with proper HE-VT M1211 rounds.

Isnt the m1211 30x113?

Im sorry, but in game mechanic terms, it hardly matter at all. You lock something, shoot ur rounds, they explode. Vt simply has the added bonus that you can eye ball it.
