British RB Ground BR’s:
- Falcon: 8.3 down to 7.7. It’s terrible compared to the Chieftain Marksman. Worse firepower, worse radar, worse armour, and it’s not even more mobile. The only thing it has over the Marksman is its smaller size. After removing the APDS it’s dropped massively in win rate and KD. Why are you moving it up to 8.7 with the Marksman and the ZA-35? Two SPAA’s that make it completely redundant.
British RB Ground BR’s:
- Vijayanta: 8.3 down to 8.0. This thing really is just a worse Vickers MBT Mk 1. Without the LRF there’s no reason for a slower vehicle with a worse reload to be 0.3 higher than the TT counterpart even with the HEATFS. We are paying for a worse tank at a higher BR.
USA RB Ground BR’s:
- M4A3 (105): 3.0 up to 3.3. This thing is a low tier menace. Along with the StuH 42 G and SU-122. This isn’t just about balance, this change is also about new player retention. As a low tier enjoyer I can tell you squads love this tank and if new players are constantly being crushed by seal clubbers, then they will stop playing the game. There’s plenty of things you can do here too, as there’s several potential ammo types missing that can justify the BR increase.
Vehicle: Scimitar mk.2
Mode: Ground Realistic Battles
Change: 8.3 → 8.0
Reason: APFSDS and removing the slat armour has still not made it worth taking over the original scimitar. It is a worse warrior at the same BR as warrior. MOVE IT DOWN
USA RB Ground BR’s:
- T18E2: 3.3 up to 3.7. Just the increase to 3.3 was not enough. This thing is equivalent to the Ram II or Cromwell I.
German RB Ground BR’s:
- StuH 42 G: 3.0 up to 3.3. This thing is a low tier menace. Along with the M4A3 105 and SU-122. This isn’t just about balance, this change is also about new player retention. If new players are constantly getting wrecked by overpowered tanks they’re going to drop the game. You could also give it the missing ammo, see spoiler below.
Vehicle: TURM 3
Mode: Ground Realistic Battles
Change: 8.7 → 9.0
Reason: There is no reason why it is escaping the decompression moveup. it is fast and oppressive with unmatched practicality from its L7 and falcon gun combo.
Vehicle: AS90
Mode: Ground Realistic Battles
Change: Give it L15a2 proximity fuse
Reason: That is its correct service ammunition. It shouldnt be using m107
Vehicle: GBT155/SP155
Mode: Ground Realistic Battles
Change: Give it L15a2 Proxy Fuse
Reason: A more realistic shell for what such a vehicle would have served with if it had entered service instead of evolving into AS90 and pzh2000
A-5C going to 11.0??! Absolutely not! needs to be 10.3 its slow and only has rear ir missiles
German RB Ground BR’s:
- Sd.Kfz.234/3: 2.0 up to 2.3. If the StuG IIIA is 2.3 then this machine absolutely needs to be 2.3, it has the exact same gun and fantastic mobility. It had a 56.1% winrate last month and a KD of 2.01.
German RB Ground BR’s:
- Sd.Kfz.234/2: 3.7 up to 4.0, and make it Rank III. This vehicle is effectively the German Chaffee equivalent, it’s incredibly uptier resistant and I’ve seen many players take/recommend taking it up to 6.3.
German RB Ground BR’s:
- VK 3002 (M): 5.0 up to 5.3. This vehicle is basically a side-grade to the Panther D. It trades a small amount of armour for speed. If the VK goes up then you can ignore my earlier Comet I and AC IV posts.
QN506 going to a higher BR than the ZBD04A is certainly one of the choices of all time
Sweden RB Ground BR’s:
- Sherman III/IV: No change, just fix the historical bug reports. This is a very strong premium, instead of knocking it up to 4.0 you can try fixing it first. This is not a Sherman IV (M4A3) hull but a Sherman IB (M4 105) which has the same 400hp engine and transmission of the M4 & M4A1. The hull is also modelled incorrectly, as the armour has been made to represent a single continuous piece. The MG weakspot is still there, it has just had a bit of metal welded over it.
German RB Ground BR’s:
- Turm III: 8.7 up to 9.0. Surely this is a mistake that this was missed during decompression.
Vehicle: Hunter F.6
Mode: Air Realistic Battles
Change: 10.0 → 9.3
Reason: It makes zero sense for a flareless subsonic with very close quarters missile plane to be the same BR as a mirage with magic 1 or higher than a fishbed with R3R. SRAAM is not the most reliable because of how jittery TVC is in game. It is at most a sidegrade to the FGA.9 Hunter premium from its worse hardpoint config, the BR should reflect that
Sweden RB Ground BR’s:
- Comet I: 5.3 down to 5.0. If the British one goes down, so should the Swedish/Finnish one. Again, if the VK goes up this is not required.
Italian RB Ground BR’s:
- M15/42: 2.7 down to 2.3. This is a very sad medium tank, and barely an improvement over the M14/41.
Italian RB Ground BR’s:
- Sherman I Composito: 3.7 up to 4.0. This is effectively a cast hull M4A2. Last month it had a 61.6% winrate and a KD of 2.43, people complain about the Sherman III/IV but this is the real seal clubbing Sherman premium.
