Something needs to be done about 8.3 - 9.0 SPAA [Poll]

Your reply was already refuted before you hit post.
I understood your concerns though.

Edit removed language I deemed rude.

Fair enough.
I can’t say 2 K/D is that good, though I’m not sure what your average performance is at that BR… let alone with such a small sample size.

Again, the jumbo (even when exploiting the cupola weakspots of some tanks) isn’t 6.0 because it isn’t all that great at 5.7 to begin with.

I had played the jumbo when it was 5.7 too and I can’t understand why it can face Tiger IIs, let alone in a 0.7 BR uptier if you’re implying that it should be 6.0. I had a similar K/D as you, which is quite underwhelming compared to the other tanks I have been playing around that BR.

Because certain CCs couldn’t imagine having to aim so they used their communities to skew the vote in their favor*

It would nerf all APHE slingers, which can affect some tanks more than others…
There would probably need a relatively large restructure of mid-tier and low-tier vehicles, and I’m not quite sure how Gaijin would handle it.

To fix the SPAA APHE slinger problem, I think the APHE nerf can be implemented for APHE calibers of less than 40mm, which would mostly just affect SPAAs, which is the intended target.

They could start by moving the jumbos down since they’d no longer be stabilized one shot killers

Most of the time (from my experience), you often need more than one shot (often two or three) to kill most things in front aspect (especially if you’re going for cupolas and / or front-plate shots with APCR).
For side-aspect shots, though, I agree with you.

That being said, I agree that it should be moved down to 5.3… maybe 5.0 if the change is that bad for it.

The Gepards, and especially the Za-35, have been complained about for years. It’s not like there’s some small portion of the WT community that thinks the Gepards are too strong, it’s pretty much everyone who reaches 8.3.

I dont know whats so hard to understand there is something wrong with the Shells

They used to shred things from the side and might even get a Commander view over pressure

But currently you can just spray a t55 from the Front and somehow it just blows up after a while
With the hit view showing all kind of unexplainable things

And i shot a m48super with the amx-30dca and shot it around the gun breach and it did just blow up
Like how, i was nowhere near the turret ring or Commander

That shit need to be fixed and the spaa situation should mostly fix itself

ITPSV Leopard (ultra fast 35mm APHE spammer) and now XM246 (ultra tanky 35mm APHE spammer) too.

Just the cassis should make this tank 10.0(ITPSV)

There is pretty much no spaa which isnt camplained about, the only apds rounds I understand is when the he self destroy themself at around 2km range

I think that’s a little too much 😅

Keep in mind the hull armour is effectively meaningless when you can always shoot the large, and pretty weak turret armour.

The mobility is the only benefit over the other SPAAs, which isn’t too far off the ZA-35.

Za-35 can also be 9.3/9.7 and the xm247 can be 10.0 with the proxy fuze shell and the bugged saphei shell

They’d pretty much cease being good SPAAs for those BRs.

I think they should just make <40mm APHE act like realistic APHE shells (conical fragmentation instead of spherical to stop cupola shots) and nullify their penetration when ricochets (to stop trap shots).

SPAA mains are just biased.

Its not even shot traps its also stupid angle pen…

And effectively you have a light tank with 70sp

Those type, yes after this br you have stinger and after this you have radar guided missiles

Time wise I do agree a bit. At least 12 at night my time, all the Asian cheaters hop on and you notice a complete turn of how the game is. Suddenly you get hit sniper through spots you’d never be able to see, through 17 bushes, 6 trees etc.

Funniest thing is I keep getting “thank you for your report we took action” after reporting them.
