They have the same thermals as the 2A5, 2A6 and PSO in the other trees.
And the massive increase of armor compared to the 2A5 and 2A6 is a much bigger benefit than the marginally better round (above ~580mm pen there isn’t much of a difference between different darts until you go to extremes like the Object 292 round).
@_Renzo@GALWAYLION-live could you take this to DM’s as fun as it is watching the time old classic of idc, its got nothing to do with the Eldenhet 98 which id prefer stayed on topic with the posts problem.
You’re right, last thing we need is this post getting shut down. The Elde needs a massive buff or it just needs to be gone. There is zero reason this knock-off Antelope should be higher than 10.3, especially with the fact that it spends more time in the sky than CAS players.
Eh… is should be higher than the Type 81 but the Ttpe 81 shouldn’t be 11.7 gaijin balanced it because myself and other Japanese players tend to find single celled organisms piloting at 12.0, the Type 81 should be lower in BR and the BR’s could use an extra 3-4 new BR’s to decompress some tanks and spaa. The Eldenhet is a better Type 81 but its not really hard to better than that and the Eldenhet is just powercrept to hell. We need more BR’s with SPAA being spread out much further. The Eldenhet imo shouldn’t be added as its a pointless addition whose existence will be used by gaijin to ignore giving a proper spaa when even more cancer CAS munitions are added and the Ito will still be the better option for SPAA.
Oh yeah, that Toyota truck definitely should not be 11.7, at best it should be 11.0, but God forbid we actually base things on how they are instead of how terrible other players are. Then again, maybe the game would be balanced and not based around who makes Gaijin the most money.
I seriously still don’t get why they put in a significantly weaker SPAA above the ItO. In my opinion, the ItO is the second best SPAA in game. Why would anyone want a (as I said) copy of the Antelope that has already been proven in game to be a massive flop. Ever since it was announced, it was a joke to the community, and all this Dev Server stuff is showing is that its potential is sky high.
The OTOMATIC is 11.3 cause people will continue to play it as a TD with its pen and fire rate, its just an unfortunate side effect of playing an SPAA which can multirole effectively. If the type 81 could do AT roles it would easily be 12.0 by gaijins logic where as the 2S6 will continue to go down in BR even though its a good TD and SPAA because that is their favorite SPAA lol
2S38: a light tank that is also used as a SPAA
Gaijin: “lower it to 10.3!”
OTOMATIC: considered the second worst top tier SPAA and has been the subject of multiple lower BR threads, sometimes used as a Light Tank to defend themselves since they literally have nothing.
Gaijin: “12.0 next update!”
At present, in testing, the Elde 98 cannot engage aircraft sub 6km, cannot detect aircraft at even slight elevations to slave the missile to, cannot loose a missile without slaving it to the radar, and cannot hit a target through basic maneuvers.
This thing should not have been added, we would have been better off with the RBS 23.
The dude is on some next level copium. Like yeah it shouldn’t be the same br as the SLM and new Tan Sam (I will refrain from judging the Slamraam, Spyder and CS/SA5 until they are less WIP), but 11.0 is wild.
I’m a little surprised it was accepted. Usually the ‘warhead weight’ is the explosive+frag shell, and gaijin only takes the explosive mass into account.
