Best plane gunner perk?

+30% angle of focused and peripheral vision or +50% enemy aircraft detection range?

I had the first one and i noticed that my ju188 gunners would engage quite frequently but only if the enemy was at a closer range, changed the perks to +50 range thinking that it would be better for long range and it seems like the gunners engage less frequent and i get shot down more like they don’t see the enemy planes as often as they did with the first perk.

What do you guys use?

Pilot visibility
Tail gunner visibility

Peripheral vision is a cheaper version imho

Well the ju188 has 4 gunners, i know the first one you get is the front gunner (dunno why) but the last 3? i don’t know which one mans which gun… This mean that i don’t know if one of the gunners with 50% range is on the belly turret and doesn’t get to see much action

You can only find out with one gunner equiped and guess where the enemy airplane is coming from. Once you do that you change them names into the position they have.

I don’t think those perks work for bots.

I put detection for everyone. It’s more easy for a player to scan the sky.

I think there is a bug on some planes, they used to work on all gunners / bot, my A20 and ju188 were lethal pre Pacific update.

I tested d3a1 on cust and he doesn’t fire… but incr vis worked before.

Get a Attacker Pilot 2 and give him increased range. The default perk for Attacker 2 is peripheral vision and giving him increased range gives both perks.

It’s currently impossible to apply both perks because they are expensive.

Keofox said they affect bots
