Hi,
So recently I got the Challenger 2 after a few months of grinding, and, well, I keep dying. I know its hull armor isn’t the best, so I try to only expose my turret. But even when I get in a decent H-down position my breech gets sniped whenever I pop up to take a shot.
Am I playing it wrong? Any tips or anything for the Chally 2? Any advice would be appreciated
You are not playing it wrong. You are either rushing points alone, have bad situational awareness or cant react quickly enough.
What @viski253 said. If your breach goes instantly try shot baiting or start relying on binocs/command optic before peaking. Remember that your gun view is lower than the top of the turret.
So the idea for hte CR2s is try do a support role until you get a proper feel for the tank.
As it stand right now they arent that great for their Respective BRs, but it does have some merits, great optics fast reload for the first 4 reloads also has pretty respectable turret traverse, not extreme but good enough.
Try get people to shoot at your breach, and wiggle your turret so they hit the turret cheeks, the breach spot rather exaggerated though so take care.
It can be really good in hull down positions but the issue is getting to them reliably.
Overall, ? try keep people at arms length, once folks close the gap unless you’re extremely aware of where people are (good headset and experience of where folks usually go) you’re kinda at the whim of the enemy.
Basically for its BR play it as if you’re always in a full uptier and with caution.
