You said you cant kill Tigers with PIAT/ useless.

Yet reality is different. It can kill and testing range is not necessary the best way to test as @gastanofrizzi explained in terms of lack of crew members.

So the tiger have the ammo near the engine? LoL this is engineering

Maybe it’s the same problem when a panther can’t destroy a jumbo head-on? (I’m talking about the practice mode)

This is the same as shooting at tanks with an anti-tank rifle boys, no fun, too low efficiency.

24

How is this related to the issue of shooting range with no crew?

25

Oh no! now we ask the dev to give a health bar to all tank in game so you can have fun

We can at least say we don’t agree with it. Not say that we want it.
(Maybe they’ll give us anti-air rifle granades instead, who knows)

I just tested it with the Bazooka and PIAT on the practice grounds from very close range. PIAT went through a few times but it was like 30/70 of penetrations vs non-penetrations (also couldn’t achieve a single penetration from the rear) while I couldn’t achieve a penetration with the Bazooka at all.

Now considering that the first Bazooka version had a penetration of around 76mm and the Tiger armor protection of 82mm on the sides and even the back it gets pretty clear while you wont achieve any penetration. The only place where it should be possible is the part is the lower side armor between the tracks and upper side armor (62mm armor) which is rather tricky to hit. So tricky that I didn’t managed it so far in my single testing attempt as I ran out of ammo.

The (campaign order wise) supposed to be inferior PIAT had a theoretical penetration of 100mm. Not sure which value the devs use but apparently its sometimes possible to penetrate with a PIAT which seems to be your current go-to anti tank weapon of choice against tigers apart from the good old detonation pack.
