Lower the BR of the Chi-Ri 2

The Chi-Ri 2 can be penned from the front by literal BR1 vehicles due to the flat 50mm armor plate that is around the hull mounted 37mm cannon.

Here is the Daimler penetrating the Chi-Ri 2 frontally with its 40mm cannon.

The Sherman 105 is also able to overpressure the Chi-Ri 2 frontally as well

Put it in BR3 or BR4, this tank does not have the power to stand alongside the Ho-Ri or Super Pershing

Br 3, absolutely not, it’s two guns would destroy American and British tanks, especially if controlled by an expert, Br 4 is where it should go if it’s BR gets Lower

So what? It doesn’t have armor because it is not supposed to be heavy tank.
Is BR5 supposed to be reserved only for heavy tanks or what?

I really can’t comprehend how anyone could suggest this to be on BR3.

It’s anti infatry capabilities are way better than of Ho-Ri’s. It can spam shots so fast.

This tank can easily stay at BR5.

Truly a bad take.

Super pershing with its super long reload time is so bad in dealing with infantry.

Stop comparing tanks only based on tank vs tank encounters.

Literally the only thing super pershing has is good armor and ability to deal with king tiger, otherwise it’s pretty trash tank. Especially against Japanese who doesn’t rely on tanks anyway.

So should we put the Pz3n and M8 Scott at BR5 because they have great anti-infantry capabilities? What about the flamethrower tanks?

It’s anti-infantry capabilities aren’t relevant if anybody can respawn and blow it up from the front with a well placed shell from a BR1 tank.

Besides, this tank is mutually exclusive with the Ho-Ri production. You straight up cannot use both at the same time because they’re locked to the same squad. By using the Chi-Ri 2 at BR5, you’re basically submitting yourself to get destroyed by American heavy tanks (we’re assuming you’re an average player who isn’t blowing money on the ho-ri prototype)

Well 50mm of flat armor is BR1 levels of protection, but we are talking about a weakspot right?

The gun has Tiger 1 like anti tank power - well yeah also not really that impressive. Not being able to reliably penetrate Jumbos really shouldn’t make it a BR5 tank. Its basically a Tiger 1 with worse armor.

BR4 seems very reasonable, but BR3 is overkill I think.

It definitely belongs at BR4 but Br3 it would be too strong and Shermans would become endangered species. BR3 needs Chi-to to get downtiered and new late Chi-to to be added to BR4.

I think BR4 is most appropriate, even though BR4 vs’ BR5 and visa versa, I still think for consistency sake relative to other BR4 tanks it should be placed here. BR3 would be too much I think. Since there’s a chance it could be placed up against BR2 equipment which is just far too oppressive imo.

Let’s go to 1 br Why be petty?

Isnt the late chi to basicly just a copy of the early version without any noticable changes at all?
Even in WT they sit at the exact same BR and they have more BRs to reflect small diffrences in power than in enlisted.

no, at max br 4, this tank it’s meh due the armor, but the fast reload and how easy you can drive it, it’s an advantage who can make low br tanks suffer, NO, even me who it’s japan main thinks this is BAD idea, and I repeat, br 4 it’s his br

if you could make the tanker 2 squad be able to equip it, so i dont have to choose between it and the ho-ri production, that would be amazing

best case scenario, allow all japanese tanker squads to equip any tank, they have the fewest squads to use out of any nation

PLEASE discuss this with the developers

Best case they do it for all factions as there are so many tanks and planes made unusable due to that.
