GrB finally decent?

So post penetration effect of the GranatBusche got improved in the last patch. I wonder what others think about it now.

Personally I feel like it’s working quite well now. Though I shoot only a few times so I may not have a full picture. (I might have been lucky.)

The GRB was pretty good in stalingrad against kv-1

Never actually used the GrB. Always had the Sturmpistole and Panzerfaus

Tell you what though, sucker chews through my Stuart like no one’s dang business

I find that the Sturpistole is inconstent against soviet tank, one time I shoot 3 times the back of the turret of the Kv 1 and that did no damaged

It was always pretty good, if one took time to get good with it, but after checking ER, they buffed it pretty nice, post-pen damage range was .7, now is 3, along with the rest of the launchers.

I honestly wish you could set the default range on the sight. It’s fine on weapons with like 2-3 different range settings but the GrB has like 7. I normally use 50m, so I wish there was a way to set that as the default.

It basically functions like an M1 bazooka but with a jankier sight. Will go through most BR 1-2 tanks, but will struggle with BR3 tanks. You do get a hilarious amount of ammo, though.

The Granatbüchse used to be useless - then it became very good, then kinda bad, then okay and hopefully it is now indeed on paar with Bazooka.

Low BR Germany is too dependent on their vehicles to fight off enemy armor - which gets specifically nasty when dealing with KV1.

Hopefully its not immune to it.

My KV-1 got instantly penned by the GrB earlier today which rarely happened in the past, then i got finished by a tnt. Where is my Soviet bias uncle Stalin why would you abandon me when i needed you?

THE STALINIUM HAS BEEN BROKEN! THE RISE OF GERMANIUM HAS BEGUN!

Seriously though, if Russian tanks are made of Stalinium then Panther turrets are made of Germanium (yes I know it’s a real element)

Well I don’t know… effective armor and post pen damage feels every day different, I cant make my mind up anymore.

Are you certain its post-pen damage is buffed? I haven’t play German br2 for a while, so I am not sure. But the last time I played grb still had utter crap damage. It always has good pen but the damage is just too unreliable. Most of the time, it kills one guy or does nothing even if you aims for the ammo.

I hate grb so much because it always fails me under pressure. From time to time, it will give some lucky one shot kills, but I want it to be more reliable like a bazooka. I would love it to have more damage with less ammo, or just give Germany panzerfaust 30.

Is it back to how it was in stalingrad?

There was a time it was awesome

I believe the german equivalent of Stalinium is Krup Stahl but somebody more fluent with WT memes needs to confirm.

It’s still not buffed now, that comes with the minor update

Then I’m dumb and it was pure luck. Thanks for clarification.

The problem with the panther’s turret is that it’s not actually 100mm as advertised. Around half the mantlet has a 100mm backing plate, and the rest of it has a spall liner that does stop some rounds.

Nah it’s just volumetric

Enlisted doesnt have volumetric armor, nor volumetric shells

Huh. Welp, I’m off to kill some Panther’s through the face with a “high velocity” 76mm
