Germany needs a stronger AT launcher at BR2 - add Faustpatrone 30

I did see Cougar and N3 destroy KV1
But their requirements for distance seem to be relatively high?

look at him aiming at the only pixel that hits the ammo rack, you are so wise wow, now hit the turret, hit the ā€œwrongā€ side and see how many shots it will take to kill the crew.

From personal experience
Hitting the side of the turret can kill the gunner
and a chance to detonate ammo racks

both ā€œcanā€ take them out, I do alot, but I rather quit the game then needing to pen 10 times while my own tank blows up in just one hit always.

This is not what I am complaining about, however it is simply a fact that KV1 completely dominates low BR, its on the same level of insanity as Tiger II H - with the exception that Soviets have Panzerfaust 100.

When I drove the No. 4 against American and Soviet level 5 tanks, they exploded in one shot.
I havenā€™t seen them complain either.
Everyone exploded with one shot
If you are afraid of not being able to beat
Please destroy the cannon barrel first

thatā€™s not the point, also IS2 deals massively more post pen than Panzer IV and IS is still supperior.

Panzer IV CAN fight those BR5 tanks, but that doesnt make it equal or ideal at all.

The same reason
Cougars and N3 can fight against KV
But this does not mean that their performance is equally ideal

used to
After the minor update it was changed to be the same as other rocket launchers

Thatā€™s nice.

tried it out, didnā€™t change much for KV1 - however I believe that has nothing to do with actual post pen damage - rather I believe its 75mm of armor is artificially increased

It might be bugged.
KV-1 is one of the most resilient tanks.

no no, KV1 used to be useless when Stalingrad came first out, because Stalingrad Panzer III HEAT would always one hit kill it - since it has 80 mm of pen.
After they buffed the KV 1 armor, even Panzer IV couldnt reliably fight it anymore.

Right now Panzer IV seems okay enough, since it actually has decent post pen damage, but still KV 1 in the game has something done to it that makes it have more than 75mm of effective armor - and no Stalinium fans I am aware that KV1 is slightly sloped, thatā€™s not my point.

Itā€™s definitely not a problem of KV. HEATs just became extremely unreliable for whatever reason.

54

I mean historically speaking those early HEATs were actually know to have issues, but I donā€™t think that it should make them as bad as they are.
