Oh gawd here we go again… last time they were like cockroaches.
Should be?
Ehhhh…
Like I said, complete lack of armor hurts it. Speaking only from AB, this thing would not survive a minute at 4.7, especially if it got uptiered.
RB I dunno, to be honest. I would rather give it a high pen APDS/HEAT round and move it up to 7.0/6.7, would pair well with the Bkan and give us two godly SPAA since it also gets a HE-VT round.
AB is a different story due to the inability to really utilize it’s speed… in RB however where everyone is driving sluggish WW2 tanks you can easily get halfway across the map and decimate multiple vehicles before they can even respond with a 1.2s reload.
The same pen as a Jumbo with faster reload speed and high mobility but minus the armor, so it’s a side-grade type vehicle.
Complete lack of armor means it makes zero difference if it’s at BR 2 or BR 10 in terms of survivability.
Unironically not a high bar tbf…
Also lack of turret. Honestly I would just bump it to 4.0 (Along with the swedish sherman), and wait and see- then bump it it 7.0 if it gets its proper toys.
Turret isn’t really that important when you have an agile chassis, and the Jumbo is not a high bar in terms of pen, but complaining about having the same pen 2 full BRs lower as not being good enough is a bit much.
Not true, but the chassis does help somewhat.
Tbf it is one of the lowest bars you can have lol
Sacrifices everything for armor, lacks heavily on firepower. Best option anyways is giving it HEAT, APDS, and HE-VT and moving it to 7.0/7.3/whatever
1.2s reload is going to be a menace anywhere, without APDS it should still sit at 4.3 at the lowest and realistically at 4.7 without the premium bias.
Eh, id say 4.0 but whatever
AB it should definitely only go up to 4.0
I would agree with 4.7 if they had a lineup at that br. It goes to 4.7 then only people who know how to play it will play it then it goes up again until nobody plays it. Thats how these things work. Look at the french 7.7 very strong vehicles but their main money maker wont go up to 8.0 dont get me wrong its an annoying vehicle to fight with very good armor but the other two that went to 8.0 went up because they have high win rates amd stats and not good money making for gaijin. The whole argument of the sav going up will either kill most people who play it or leave it where it dominates. Kinda like my 5.7 jumbo which at 5.3 was busted and at 5.7 is still very strong. People forget most of the 5.7 vehicles went to 6.0 meaning more food for my jumbo in those ontier or downtier matches. I personally think the Sav should go to 4.3 and that should cause a bunch of players to stop playing it because of the armor being more of a problem. People will have to play more rat like and learn all the weak spots. If it doesnt pen its just volumetric or poor aiming.
Even less of a lineup then 4.7. 4.0 actually has a lineup, though.
Whats on 4.7 cause i cant remember a single ground vehicle. Im playing realistic not arcade
In RB? Nothing.
AB has the Pvkv m/43 (1963), but between 4.0 and 5.0 in RB there is zilch.
Theres way more 4.0 then 4.7 so 4.3 would be best since 4.0 is still very strong. Tbf i can bring m22 up to 11.7 and still get 3+ kills but my skill doesmt mean anything when talking majority and differing play style
They wouldnt do that, because it has no lineup at 4.3- especially since its a premium. Its similar to the VIDAR and why they wont put it at 8.3, only 8.0 or 8.7. It should go to 4.0, same with the Sherman III/IV.
Honestly expected as soon as mass SAV’s were coming into rb, that kv-1e’s would soon follow to eat shells and annihilate people who just bought and are learning the vehicle.Needless to say I was correct.
The Sherman also has armor. The SAV will die to a .50 cal in a matter of seconds
It has 30mm of sloped front armor I think so that might not be a guarantee, and .50s are an advantage only the US gets who sometimes seem to forget just what a crazy advantage they have with it over everyone else.
Fair enough. If a .50 cal won’t kill it, and APHE or HE will nuke it.
Did something happened, or why is it no longer available?, its supposed to end in June 12, not June 5
