This tank forces you to play with garbage 105mm HEAT rounds while mostly facing 10.7-11.0s.
To add insult to the injury, it lacks MGs to take down fences and stuff. Then you have a considerably high visibility multiplier for some reason when compared to similar tanks, so it’s hard to be sneaky/flank with it.
The 1st APFSDS round should be stock, and even then, it’s an 8.7 level sabot at high tier. No reason to punish people more by forcing them to use HEAT in an MGless MBT at 10.3.
TTD aka the technology demonstrator: demonstrating the need for a damn machine gun.
I’ve never GE’d an APFSDS round.
I just learned weakspots on tanks instead.
You don’t have much time for weak spots with a stock tank that doesn’t even hit where you aim, and with a 115% visibility, you get spotted very fast.
I just shot a 2a4 in the manlet right now, 0 damage done, and then got OHK right back. This is a recurring theme with 105mm heat.
And the number of times I get hit and can’t hit back because I have a fence and I just stare helplessly at the enemy is laughable.
It was planned to have an MG, both coax and on its roof, but sadly remained on paper
Even then, it could benefit a lot from that. Also including its spall liner which is even mentioned in its brochure.
A good buff for it would be a higher reload rate icl
Yeah, i feel like it needs something. It’s way too close to Chall Mk.3 and Vickers Mk.7 (in BR) to be worth bothering with right now.
its the only british tree MBT i havent spaded because its so damn awful
I thought the visibility stat was for how easily your crew spots enemy vehicles in arcade battles?
I tagged this post for arcade, but the mod decided to change tags to “stock”
It faces universal issues regardless of mode. Better this way.
Sure, but the part I talked about visibility multiplier, is only relevant for arcade
Yea it was reset after changing the channel. Should be arcade now too
I don’t really enjoy it either. Maybe if it had it’s spall liner it wouldn’t be too bad but right now it just seems like a slower leopard 2av. It gets dm63 but after the buff to dm33 there’s barely any difference in pen.
