Could be an option for BR 4. I don’t see it at BR3 because of the Tiger II’s gun, but at the same time this kind of open TD are usually not good in Enlisted.
As a quick comment : the second picture is a Hummel SPG with 15cm gun and not a Nashorn. Notice the absence of muzzle break at the barrel’s end.
it’s not like germany really needs one,
but i guess it is suitable to be an event vehicle.
so, why not.
Considering that SU-100 is BR5, I think it will come out as BR5.
SU-100 got some armor though. And I don’t think it should be at BR5 anyway, I don’t even know how many I have seen in game, If I have seen any at all.
Any BR3 (or even many BR2) tanks would be able to Kill the Nashorn with a single HE Shell… Even .50 cal and other HMG would turn the Nashorn into a wreck.
Anyway, it’s not like I would play this one at all even though it was at BR4.
Only 3 BR on par with Dicker max, Marder and 8.8 cm flak 37 Sfl
The reason why these tanks have low BR is that they have low penetration. (153mm, 155mm)
However, this tank has the same penetration at 237mm.
Here are the reasons why he should be on the third BR:
Opentop design, very weak armor.
Easy to destroy by planes, Guns, and artillery.
Big silhouette = easy target.
Slow reload and poor mobility.
Balanced by high gun power.
The Germans need a tank that can penetrate the KV-1 and KV-2 frontally.
I doubt it.
Even considering all that, it shouldn’t be on BR3.
This is because the very high penetration power is very strong.
Therefore, I think it will be possible down to 4.
I think you’re not aware of how unlikely it is to see a tank destroyer in matches and why people don’t use them, the gun power doesn’t justify its BR in the slightest.
I know why anyone don’t use it.
However, the power of the main gun is a natural condition for justifying BR.
It’s rather strange why you don’t justify it.
Anyway, I don’t use it because it doesn’t have the right BR or performance like Marder 3.
Or not having OP performance like Ho-Ri.
These two tanks are either uniquely correct in BR, or too OP case.
What is certain is that this tank should never be same or below BR3.
Oh by the way, Marder 3 is being used as a Joker pick for BR2 (to take on KV-1), and Ho-Ri is the most OP tank out of all tanks. (It’s only BR6 THING)
id just say make it a event vehicle
Unfortunately devs balance tanks based on cannon which why Chi-Nu II was put in BR4.
So I wouldn’t expect Nashorn to be put lower then BR4 even though realistically it would fit in BR3.
Because the same thing would happen to it as with the SIG 15. While I rarely saw it in BR2 games before, now it doesn’t even appear in BR3 games.
Many people are badly accustomed to seeing a large gun, and that’s enough to make them think about putting it in a BR where it would be useless, and because of this, I no longer see tank destroyers like I used to. Even if the Nashorn were a BR1 tank destroyer without HE capability, no one would use it either. The HO-RI improves its survivability due to its high armor, very good mobility, and devastating HE, making it ideal to justify its BR. However, I have destroyed several with 50kg bombs.
It’s a matter of perspective, at the end of the day the player base doesn’t really know how to use tank destroyers.
Honestly, that tank is also Joker Pick.
I honestly think it was problematic to be in BR2.
In the case of Ho-Ri… because of the synergy of too high front armor and too strong main guns, it’s performance enough to move to BR6 rather than BR5.
It’s the only tank that’s more OP than KTH.
Of course, the reason why this tank came out is because the problem is that there is not a tank to give to BR5 except for this.
The reason Ho-Ri should be in BR6 is because for infantry and tanks it’s kind of big to have invincible armor that can’t destroy this from the front.
Plus firing at a fast reload speed with an incredibly powerful main gun…
Honestly I don’t think there’s any reason why they should in BR4.
It’s not that high of penetration, and Chi-Nu is currently unable to penetrate even Sherman, who is the same BR3, from the front.
That’s why I want Chi-Nu 2 and Chi-To to be lowered to BR3.
They didn’t even have enough penetration to be in the real BR4.
To be in BR4, you need to have a penetration over 170mm or armor are incredibly good, but both tanks are not eligible for either condition.
Both should be BR4
Which needs to change
I think they are BR4 too.
But now it’s BR5, so this is also likely to be BR5.
