      why would you need to buff those? they perform excellently. the T14 especially has quite a troll armor, and is practically immune to t4 tanks

  1. SMGJohn says:

    -10 depression in a Sherman tank with a 105mm gun, very historical eyeyeyyeyeyeyeyeyeyyeye
    Historical depression = -3, WG gives it -10, EYEYEYYEYEYEYEYYEYE

    EYEYYEYEYYEYEYEYYEYEYEYE

  2. Rombat says:

    The Murazor…you know the new retard dude who is in charghe with balance department in wg said there are no super pershing buffs because it is a cheap premium tank and a cheap premium tank should not be as good as an expensive premium tank as lowe.

  3. Nighty says:

    Löwe lacks on speed and dpm actually, now it gets armor and more gun depression. Is it supposed to be played like a stubborn emil next time or what? Oh man……

  4. To be fair. I do like most of these changes…

    Except this overmatch change. I reserve opinion until I see the full formula but why do I have the feeling that it’s going to be a buff for the angled soviet vehicles and tanks from Germany etc will lose out once again.

  5. FeralGangrel says:

    Wonder what the “reinforced” hull on the Lowe will amount to. Not gonna complain at all, any buff to a vehicle I drive is a welcome addition. Espically that -10 depression. Look forward to that.

  6. AHELPFULSOUL says:

    That Panther 88 buff must be a joke.
    They sold this tank as an sniper on an mediocre mobile platform. Now they buff the engine and hull traverse – but not the real drawback, the low top speed of 45 km/h.
    They dont fix the horrible forward gundepression (hello @ Panther II) or buff some other stats, like the DPM. A DPM buff would bring some real flavour to that tank -> not the best tank overall but at least one stat where it can excel at.

    But no, it has to be a stupid mobility buff that most of the time wont matter, because it had really low ground resistance in the beginning already, like in russian hover med low.

    1. I sense a little personal hate here 😛 oh well, supertest is subject to change, but being a lot more mobile in short distances is good enough for snipping, no need to be a hellcat. Plus, they’re going to nerf the Panther II’s mobility and probably gun depression as well when they give it the E50’s 88 gun.

      Now for the hard facts:
      I think the Panther 88 has second best dpm for a tier 8 mediums, best accuracy of the tier 8 mediums at .32 and second best view range at 390. It’s pretty much the epitemy of a support tank/sniper that can soak up quite a bit of damage with its best in class 1500 hit points without getting auto penned by artillery. Check out tanks.gg and read up on tanks before you say something silly like buff the dpm of one of the highest dpm tanks in its tier 🙂

      1. AHELPFULSOUL says:

        I know and still its drawbacks are not by a bit touched by this buff (gundepression not confirmed yet).
        So, it is argueably one of the worst T8 prems by now. The buffs didnt change a thing.

        Conclusion? Buff something substantial or sth. else.

  7. M4A1 Revalorisé

    -Spread of 105mm D1504 L/51 reduced from .36 to .35m

    don’t forget to add into that accuracy ‘buff’ the 25% RNG that makes a tiny 0.1 improvement just about meaningless
    at 0.35 it will still at times (when you really don’t need it to) miss and not hit a barn door, or even close to target at medium to long range

    But at brawling peek-a-boo under 100mtrs it will be fine and all working as intended
    oops, its not a Heavy its a Medium with zero armour, oh well never mind.
