Hang on a minute let me get this straight
YOURE UPTIERING SOME BRITISH TANKS BUT SWAPPING THE STOCK AMMO FOR SOMETHING WITH LESS PENETRATION???
IN WHAT WORLD IS THAT FAIR
M4A3-E2 76
GRB
6.3->6.0
arguably EXETREMLY similar play style to a panther A literally no reason for it to be 6.3 with a few slight differneces such as the 76.2 being weaker than the panthers HV 75mm but it has more armor in some places than the panther while the panther has a more powerful gun and better mobility while the jumbo has short stop STAB and bit better armor no reason this thing should see the IS3 which can pen it everywhere

They have nothing in common. The Jumbo is a street brawler, precisely the environment where Panthers suck. It also removes its weak spot by going hull down, while the Panther’s weakness is the turret.
Oh my god! You mean to tell me a heavy tank +1 BR over another heavy tank stomps it into the ground? This is entirely unheard of in the history of the game!

T25
6.3->6.0
GRB
doesnt have a ton of armor doesnt have a short stop stab the only thing good about is the 90mm which can be found on a 5.3 jackson no reason for this to so stupidly high when there are many better vehicles at a lower BR

panthers turret weakspot by same logic can be heavily minimized by wiggling it while the panther can also just straight up pen the front plate of the jumbo
its almost like its a flaw of the game and people want it fixed ?
It’s just better than Panther A is the problem

ehh not really cause panther has a better gun and is more mobile top speed of jumbo is 22mph which is kinda slow and the guns pen difference is 140mm vs 175mm while the panther may have weaker armor in some areas it makes up for it in the panthers also got a better optic too making far superior in long to medium ranged combat while jumbo has a short stop stab which gives it a edge in CQC there like yin and yang two sides of a coin
T77E1
Rank II → Rank III
The T77E1 is by far the best AAA of this Rank and its already at 4.0 Br, there is no reason to keep it at rank II. It should be moved to Rank III with the rest of the M24s.

Not that heavily. It helps some, but your side turret armour is too thin to reliably bet against overmatch.
It is much easier to disable the turret of a Panther than that of a Jumbo. That’s not to say that the Panther is necessarily worse, it means that it’s absurd to say these two tanks play extremely similarly. No they do not, because they have completely opposite strengths and weaknesses.
It is not. USA 6.3 is stacked to the heavens, you have tools to handle uptiers. Spawn your heavy in a full downtier or partial uptier like everybody else does. If you think 5.3s (or in your proposal 5.0s!) have any fun facing a Jumbo 76 when fully uptiered, then I have an E-100 to sell you.

Can the B-66B go down to atleast 8.7? It’s worse in every way except slight speed.
Also, can you give it its bomber spawn? I made a bug report but it got closed down with insufficient explanation. I wasn’t making a suggestion and could not rebuke.

Absolute classic
its armor is not without weakness many guns even at 5.0 can pen it ? most TDs can and its literally a ASSAULT tank what do expect ? 5.0 tanks acutally have a better chance of penning it than a 5.7 tank against a 6.7 tank like tiger 2 H
What can the Panther pen that the Jumbo can’t? The Jumbos gun is also stabilized with a better reload. That makes the Jumbo’s gun better ironically
No. Only in forward gear in paved roads.
The Jumbo is way more mobile because traverse rates matter just as much as forward gear speed. Not to mention REVERSE SPEED or TURRET traverse speed

itself the panther can pen the front plate of jumbo while the 76mm cant its higher pen is useful in uptiers against higher tier heavys
What do you expect spawning the Jumbo 76 first when you’re gonna run into an IS-3, the literal heavy that scared the living soul out of Allied tank building in 1945?
You are doing the classic thing of just looking at this through a me me me me lens. Who cares about other players, right? If your Jumbo 76 stomps in a full downtier it’s only fair and proper because it’s an assault tank, if an IS-3 stomps you in a full uptier though? Balance issue. Right.

That’s neat, so besides this singular 1v1 where the Jumbo is equally likely to nuke the Panther, do you think the Jumbo and Panther bounce different things
