Yeah. Like it can be helpful to have on the upper and fore sides of the turret if you ever need to snipe or go hull down. But other than that, most engagements aren’t far off unless they are spawn sniping into the enemy spawn (otherwise most players don’t want to seem to snipe).
Overall I try to rely more on surprise, and concealment than my armor as the many times I’ve played a heavily armored vehicle just to have the Drump card on the other team, or for my weakspot to be hit and nullify my armor. It’s pointless relying on it, unless it’s in the Maus, even then. I tend to focus on maximizing the chances I get the first shot, and remain undetected as possible. If I feel overwhelmed I use that amazing reverse speed…
Holy hell bud it was a figure of speech to compare 😂
There’s a difference with the crew being lower in the turret and being spaced apart brother.

In you’re second statement if you’re getting killed by Helis, CAS with laser guided/TV missiles when you have LWS, APS
[/quote] okay again these are not a problem. Read what i originally stated my guy.
[quote=“Got a choppa@live, post:122, topic:230795”]
somehow gaijin found a “bug” allegedly with the roof armor and reduced its effectiveness with explosive even though its 200 mm of composite. And also did that around the same time they added the lmur.
[/quote] aps doesn’t counter it and most of the time Lws doesn’t go through off so sounds like a gameplay problem.
Japan and Israel are two different nations with completely different pros and cons. Japan is superior.
I don’t even know what majority of your argument is pointing at really other than trying to make comparisons with two completely different armor doctrines and somehow make those comparisons adequate. Again all these things for merk being under armored have already been acknowledged by devs bro
The forum is asking for buffs that “benefit everyone” but Merkava is already GOATED. Beautiful tank doesn’t need buffs. Forum stats under performance which is far from true. Top armor of all tanks is weak against air to ground. Forum stats struggle compared to USA and Germany definitely not true. If anything Merkava needs nerfs
I can tell from your response you didn’t read the forum. The entire reason for this forum is to buff Merkava because it struggles.
No signs of explosion, so its not a HE/HEAT round. So must be a sabot round.
Also the vehicle seems to be in a firing range, so I doubt it was actually loaded with ammunition nor fuel. If a sabot pens with no inflamable material inside it will look like nothing happened from outside.
i mean i guess your right, it looks like it was a normal pen with spall but since theres basically nothing inside (im guessing) it looks like nothing really happened.
You’ve obviously never played Israel top tier my guy @Lambda_Delta when you do, then I’ll listen to your arguments on why you somehow think the merks need nerfs (I won’t actually cause it just doesn’t make sense)
Wow you really can’t read how sad. Hopefully one day you learn there pal. The cope is strong in you keep it up maybe they’ll help you find something new to whine about in the game besides addressing the stats in front of you.
tHE STats!??? oH tHE sTatS WhATevEr WiLl wE dO wItHouT uSinG tHE StAts???!?!? Again bro. Play with it before you speak for it. You don’t even know what you’re talking about. Got that quality learing center type knowledge of how it actually plays lmao
Gets presented with stats how well Merkavas perform from 2 sources (copes). Gets corrected about crew sitting lower and spread out (copes). Person says Merkava is so good it needs to get nerfed as an overstatement (copes by saying I’m asking for nerfs). Saw your stats I hope for your sake they buff it cause even the Merkava can’t help you cope harder than this thread.
