It was 5.7 back in 2015, and ALOT more tank’s have been added that can just obliterate it since.
Could it perhaps go back down to 5.7?

The tank is with its kind at 6.0.
On top of a number of 7.0s going to 7.3 last year, it’s more than healthy where it is currently.

From what i remember when playing it, it is not in a bad spot rn. The gun is pretty good and the armor is not bad. The mobility is what will get you killed in most cases.

The main problems the black prince suffer from won’t change regardless of BR (mobility and CAS).
It can do well if you don’t get bombed. Which is quite often unfortunately.

APDS wasn’t turned into APCR 2.0.
It was buffed prior to 2019 and buffed again in 2023. APDS has not been nerfed since I started playing War Thunder.
Over 2:1 KDR, which is my average for all heavy tanks.
Its gun is also seen at 3.3 on superior platforms of tanks.

Thats why it could go down to 5.7
Other than penetration (that is wonky and bad damage after pen) it has nothing to offer
No… that’s why it has to stay 6.0.
Otherwise you might as well make Tiger E 5.7 again along with down-tiering other heavies.
Black Prince has a lol-pen round easily capable of one-shotting most tanks it comes across.
Except that lol pen round likes to bounce off or do no damage after pen
Vehicles like dicker max and waffentrager lolpen too (with great post pen) so what?

It actually is at “5.7” now. Remember when Gaijin in one of the decompression waves moved a lot of vehicles one BR step up, from 5.7 to 6.0, 5.3 to 5.7, etc? :)
Its 6.0
That logic sucks.
Bounces are aim issues.
No damage is also an aim issue.
Weird of your post to imply that Dicker Max is a 6.0 heavy tank.
If you’re one step ahead and everything below you moves one step up, are you still one step ahead?
I didnt make such a claim?
Not everything moved.
Meant to type imply.
Pretty much all the “bad boys” did. The rest are not much of an concern to the BP. There’s no reason to move it down. It’s OK where it is now…
