Have HE Shells in tanks been nerfed?

Noticed that the HE shells on many of my tanks are no longer as effective as they used to be. Have they been nerfed?

Nah, all impact explosives are wonky. Impacts, rifle nades, HE, all wonky

Haven’t noticed anything unusual.

And HE effectiveness is heavily impact dependant - most of the time people complain (when it is possible to check) they simply landed the round in a bad spot.

There wasn’t any intentional changes to HE, and I haven’t noticed any difference when using tanks.

Nope HE always been crap when not hitting bodies, actually with shell pen update it got a bit better but it still feels glitched when you shoot at the ground and at the walls or certain objects they don’t spread the dmg around radius they just render explosion and deal zero dmg to near enemies i also feel they bounce way too often (also shouldn’t the explode after bouncing and landing somewhere else?)

ah yes “landing the round in a bad spot”
me: shoot it literally at their feet and they didnt take a single damage 3 time btw 3 grenade directly at them and not behind them

for best effectiveness aim for enemy soldiers. ground tends to eat the HE, while wall gets you damage but it is reduced. not to mention other debris on the map.

have you been using grenade launcher? it very obvious when it happen with grenade launcher

it make me sad cause it wasnt always like this but nowadays grenade launcher are just explosive round now
