Just unlocked the 105 sherman , and do not know whether it is good or not. Love the 75 and 76, so is it worth the better he to ditch ap and stabiliser?
Only if you plan to stay BR III
He can be used against all tanks below Tiger E (tank destroyers seem to have difficulty)
and all Japanese tanks except Coffin
Its a beast
Good to hear. I already have a high br vehicle set up. I only plan to use it in br 3.
It is much more useful than normal sherman in my opinion. Especially if you get uptiered as you can frontally kill panthers. In low br it will oneshot any tank and it is very reliable against infantry and apcs. Only problem is the slow turret rotation, lack of stabilizer and quite long reload. Normal sherman is easier to use but in the right hands m4a3 105 will be more effective
I like to use this tank - and I hate using tanks
Big cannon, no need to change shells, just blast away.
But uptier is a bit of a problem, if you face BR 4 or 5 tanks, you’re dead.
I love it but you have to know how to use it and accept that the turret is incredibly slow
It is absolutely devastating against infantry especially grouped but sometimes it doesn’t seem to hit because the HE tend to bug in game
Against tanks however it’s another story you have to hit precisely the various weak points of the armor (especially the Commander Cupola of the panzers) to be sure to destroy them otherwise you do nothing to them
105 is incredible fun and can reliably kill up to the Pz IV. Highly recommend
Not really, now with recent addition of APHE you can do much more with 75
The Sherman 105 primary role is anti infantry. In that it excels. I also 1 shotted 2 consecutive tiger E with it in the front. You shouldn’t normally see Tigers while in your BR3 tank.
