Maus must be lowered to 7.3

Maus is a terrible tank to maneuver since it is obviously the heaviest tank in the game and the current BR it is in right now adds more to the frustration
at 7.7 it still could destroy most of the tanks but it’s reload speed combined with its mobility makes this tank more like a target practise for most of the tanks and CAS since it doesn’t have a turret mg too!!!
I strongly suggest moving the maus to 7.3!!!
while it could be still be flanked ,bombed, immobilised and frontally penetrated by some tanks and also could be overpressured by some tanks easily, it is not gonna be much of a threat to the balance of the game in any way!!
hence the maus could be balanced perfectly at 7.3 and should be moved to 7.3!!!
i suggest…

The Maus at 7.7 is perfectly fine. I’ve always enjoyed my time in it.

Its the tradeoffs for the armor and the gun. The pros and cons are balanced based on its br. Lowering it will only be a hassle for other players.

They could probably lower the reload a bit of the main gun but moving it down would be really bad. It already is incredible in a downtier

Would make the 12,8/8,8 more useful with a bit shorter reload

Guns, in fact. The coax is incredibly important. Usually you can tell if someone knows how to use a Maus or not by their use of the coax (or lack thereof).

Aye, sure. Provided we also get the IS4 at 7.3

no neither should be lowered the whole br range needs decompression

Wow, it’s almost like that was the argument being made by highlighting a second unsound example. Shocking, that.

Not happening.
You move the Maus, ->It’s sure gonna have a slow reload.
However, nearly nothing will be able to effectively pen the damn thing.
Add more than 1 Maus and it becomes a 1 sided battle. Especially if Ho-Ri’s and whatever Italy has start supporting them.

Both IS4 and Maus at lower BR would make them overperform
Both of them at a higher BR would make underperform

its always the same story all over again

Is rhetoric not taught to you people?

This is a very simple approach of demonstrating the absurdity of a proposition by suggesting an equally absurd proposition that clearly demonstrates why the idea is a bad one. Really making it sound like you lot would take A Modest Proposal on face value.

i havent suggested anything

All i said was that the Maus would be too good at lower BR and if you put it at a higher BR would do too bad

Its gonna be a never ending thread posts about MAUS

they should just vault that stupid thing to stop people from crying. you cant move it down. period.

i dont think they should vault it,its that one type of tank which its insanely hard to balance in a BR bracket and thats it to be honest

People see armor and expect to be a fortress when its really not

+1, I want to face it in my T20

I’m not good with sarcasm

The Maus at 7.3 would be funny but a bit much. It should be moved down to 7.7 in AB, though. It’s currently 8.0 in AB and it really should not be any higher than 7.7 in any mode.

It’s not going to happen for balance reasons.

We already have our OP vehicle at 7.0 (Flakpanzer 341). Maus is fine where it is.

No maus is in the best place for it
Its amazing at downtiers but bad in uptiers dues to strong cold war ammunitiond

It can be changed only with decompression
Against 6.3 it will be op
