you gave an heart because you didn’t know this was an 1945 weapon so he has to stay in BR V while we have VG 2 /1-5 in BR II and III ?
The Luftfaust could be easily get down BR IV without problem not sure BR III though

Oh jeah BR 4 is big difference then BR5 , they get matched together this or that way… i dont have that thing too but a meme Gun can be in BR3 i guess… I can really imagine the usefullness of that LUFTfaust.
Meanwhile RMN50 destroys whole Squads since years…
The Luftwaffe… 
I lost all respect for them last night when I was flying a level two Dauntless dive bomber had a dog fight with a Stuka, and the Stuka lost. Well, in the Stuka’s defense, they were unaware of me circling around on their tail, and a couple gun bursts and “Down goes Stuka, down goes Stuka”. 
However, if I had to do the same encounter again, I would rather be in the Stuka. 
Well I was putting in BR 4 so even if it’s a pretty rare launcher we wouldn’t see it in BR II but could be match in BR III to V.
I have it somewhere in my depot ^^ but yeah RMN -50 is a whole other story
You attack me for DF ahistorical BR decisions? I could imagine easily german BR 5 rifleman IV (volkssturm) squad with vg 2 introduced there. Having also extra AT slot.
EDIT: They could run and jump like Jesse Owens in Berlin but have terrible weapon handling and average vitality.

In wich way I was ATTACKING you ? Before the merge it was like that , we were fighting ppsh and so on with VG and no one is dead
Don’t you see it’s formulate like a question ???
the game itself isn’t histo bear with it
well, as a proud luftfaust owner & enjoyer,
the weapon is the equivalent of a rider class in hands.
it requires somewhat of a degree of understanding, trial and error, and above all, patience.
except, that’s where it shines.
and it’s even more effective at squad wiping troopers on light armored vehicles.
such as bikes, cars, trucks and most light armored APCs ( well, only the studelbaker, and the gaz truck. which it’s what you face most of the time anyway )
too many defenders or attackers on point?
pop a salvo from the rockets and the hell rain down on them.
annoying plane?
try to line up from his straight line, aim 2cm above and let it rip.
enemy light armored vehicles approaching?
make quick work of them by aiming at the engine.
personally, i do not think it’s fitting in br III.
and as i use it, this suggestion would do nothing but “help” me.
if ends in low br, it can be a quite powerful tool.
mostly because low br planes are relatively slow ( outside the us p38s ) and that’s where most of the riders, apc and many other light armored folks lays.
one thing it’s through detpacks, tnts, and at the other is through something that would be able to cover 4 roles at once ( minus the Anti tank one ).

Hmm ok thanks for the info.
I have 3 of them and should be able to kill something, so I will give them another try.
Usually when I pull this thing out and shoot, I get killed very quickly lol
Game balance should be prioritized above all else, if the luftfaust is heavily buffed to be BR5 material then I’m fine with that solution too. Either way, it is not in a good state right now, perhaps one of the worst event weapons there is (because to use it, you’re sacrificing an actual anti-tank weapon and losing all of the utility that brings)

The biggest problem with the luftfaust is that it takes an AT secondary slot, so people will only really run it on AT squads(which like no one uses) or if they’re fine sacrificing an actual AT weapon, which not many will do. Can’t really fix that reguardless of where you put it.
Why not allow riflemen+mortar crews to take it like the RMN-50?

You want a Rifle men to replace there rifle with a rocket launcher lmao
You can do that with the RMN-50, so what? Do the soviets just get a free pass?

RMN is way different then the luffaust in many ways one is that it’s sheer size you can’t even sprint with it 2 the weight it’s weighs the same as the Ofenrohr
3 the Luftfaust needs a bigger kill radius like the RMN
Cause I would not be replacing my FG42 for that launcher
Well, the problem is, the Luftfaust sucks and what makes it suck even more is that you need to sacrifice an actual anti-tank weapon to equip it. Event rewards should not put you at a disadvantage for using them.
Either it needs to be buffed considerably, or it should be given to some other class so you are not having to sacrifice a panzerfaust

ready for a round two against my Fw 190 with the pilot high on panzerschokolade?

yes absolutely. its a very fun and cool weapon…with the power of a BR2, BR3 weapons at best.
the best comparison to understand the luftfausts power level is the jap BR1 AT rifle, which is better against tanks, structures AND planes at BR1.
on BR3 it will compete with the panzerfaust 60 which makes the luftfaust obsolete against tanks, with grenade launchers, making it obsolete against infantry and the planes at BR3 become too fast to be hit.
at BR2 it is viable against roughly half the tanks expected (including up and downtiers), it can be used against infantry for fun & it will be sometimes able to shoot down slow & low flying planes, though much rarer than killing tanks or enemy MG nests/AT guns etc.
—> reduce it to BR2 to give the luftfaust an adequate environment. reducing it to BR3 will keep it unplayable again and then DF will be to lazy for 2 more years to sit down 2 min and adjust the BR.

It’s really pathetic how people of this type pick examples of things that are grossly overperforming and then use them to justify the agenda they are trying to push.
And instead of making the game more balanced, we’ll just end up having two problems instead of one.
stop embarrassing yourself. youre making up opinions about weapons you stated yourself you dont have and never played.
and as usual you fail intellectually to produce logical understanding of what you talk about:
the example of the jap AT rifle is indeed overperforming …for BR1 
at BR2 it would be standard power. comparing it with the luftfaust its overall stronger, which is why i used it as an additional argument to place the luftfaust in BR2.
Can’t even find mine, not going to disarm reserve for it either. But from what I remember it was better against tanks and infantry than planes!
