[@NavGTI]

The problem isn't the Kranvagns performance. Well, in the long run it is. The problem is that this style of vehicle signifies the current meta. Corridor maps, tank turrets without weakspots and armor models inviting to fire premium ammo. A good Kranvagn nerf is a nerf where they add good weakspots to it, same goes for literally any tier 10 tank at the moment. Gameplay is too boring when you know a 15v15 tier X game is gonna end up in some way with sitting in a single location firing at literal pixels on your screen for weakpoints.

I dont know what ya'll can't understand. 54 is the perfect example on how to do a heavy tank. Not op yet capable. Has armor yet not impenetrable. Good if you're good, bad if you're bad.

[@michaelashton8754]

Think we ALL agree that strategically placed weakpoints make for better gameplay. It shouldn't always just be lower plate or commander cupola as your only options to pen. Knowledge of a tanks distinct weakpoints should be a big part of gameplay Super heavies should have a weak point on the rear too - so that even stock tier 8s can pen if they flank correctly

[@Teknokraatti]

Most T10 superheavies have fairly weak rear. The only tanks that really have a decently armored hull rear plate are Maus, Type 5 and E100 which range from 150-190 effective. IS-7, AMX M4 54, 279, Chieftain, 60TP, 705A and 277 range from 100 to 40mm effective on the hull rear plate. If the flanking maneuver really manages to catch the ass of the T10 heavies, even most stock guns penetrate the weak areas easily. T10 tanks can utilize this knowledge by doing straight up revolting things to their behinds with HE, especially if they have HESH.

[@franklitzenberger4236]

Super heavies haven't been overpowered in awhile because people just spam gold meaning you are just playing a slow, low-penning heavy in a meta where that just doesn't work

[@michaelashton8754]

Yes. This.

[@zanwrightmfwr756]

@@Teknokraatti We meant frontal weakpoints. T10 super heavies imo is still well balanced, even in city maps. Their weakpoints are very obvious, usually in the front of the turret. They can hide the front weakpoint for most premium shells, but unlike kran, they can't shoot back.

[@Direwolf13PS3]

Add a cupola like the Emil 1951 on one side of the turret. Reduce the armor below the gun on the oscillating part of the turret. There I've solved the problem.

[@pavelslama5543]

Nice, now you basically have an AMX 50B in Swedish line.

[@onlyskillss9754]

1 thing to note about the 3 day stats for the Kran, Most of the really good players that boost the stats of the OP tanks have move on to the next tank, they have moved to the AMX M4 54 which is why you see its win rate in the 52% range, the AMX is now crazy good. Its gun is just next level. Gone from bottom of the list to the Top.

Lets be honest. They nerfed it for the Minotauro. People need to start getting outraged at this joke of a developer.

[@2Quietus]

Agree with your breakdown analysis, thusfar. The Kran was to clan wars as the 279e is to pubbie play...ridiculous. This will hopefully, as is so far evident, bring the Kran down a bit to make other tanks a bit more competitive. Dont get me wrong, the Kran's still a beast, but its less than easy mode now and, in my estimation, is a win for all. WG, you did a good one this time. Use this as your future template on how to do it right, because...well, your past track record with nerfs kind of sucks. 🤣

[@diymicha2]

They also made a lot of small changes to certain maps. A boulder here, a removed ledge there...

[@FlashDAH]

[@attilapeteley8802]

QB. This was the only tank that could keep up with the 279E or Chieftain, and was only so effective in Ranked, but see how is it used in CW, or beside WZ 55, which autoloader is used in CW or in any clan related activity!

[@StarkRaven59]

Imagine loading HE and not one-shotting artillery.

[@StarkRaven59]

I feel like the Kranvagn nerf doesn't really address why the tank is a problem, that being the ridiculous turret. It's still going to get to its hull down position, it's still going to be hard to dig it out of the hull down position. Something tells me that while the crane wagon isn't going to be pulling the monster numbers, it's still going to be a popular pick on the battlefield, at least until something more stupidly hull-down appears.

I personally played my Kran after this “nerf” and I still found it to be a powerhouse pulling in over 3k most games and surviving. I don’t think anything will truely “nerf” this tank without completely destroying it

[@theBhavMan]

yeah like how it was before its buff. Remember when it had the same turret but with a 4 shot autoloader with 400 alpha like t57 and amx 50b? yeah it was considered pretty weak then, even with the turret. After the buff, it shot up to one of the most powerful. No in between

[@durachoks]

I agree, didnt feel nerf that much, I think I felt the dpm nerf the most, speed and gun handling feels kind same, and I dont think they are going anywhere from ranked battles, we still will see Krans every game...

[@callanwalker9909]

@@callanwalker9909 lol, calling 3k "only 3k" xD

[@LateDude96]

What they should have done is to give it a smaller more accurate gun (smaller than 400 damage) with the same DPM but a bigger weakspot on the cupola. That way the Kran would still have the ability to clip people but would have to expose its weakspot for longer.

[@johnhall9695]

I noticed you didn’t include the reward tanks the 279e and the chief, they should be nerfed to follow suit 👍

[@hebrewhammer4086]

cheif will never be nerfed as it would piss off all the clan wars players like me. (granted I don't even play my cheif). 279e isn't all that strong in all tier 10 MM. tho it is stupid strong against tier 8s. don't count on either getting nerfed.

[@M1903Enjoyer]

Wargaming had said they won't nerf premium or reward vehicles; and although the katter is earned in ranked, it can only be used in random battles. They're fine the way they are, the 279e has a crazy questline to get and I respect the players that can get through it, its not all grinding.

The Win Rate of a tank (especially considering the short period) becomes somewhat irrelevent when you consider the WZ-111 5A has a win rate of 48.76% and the statisticaly identical WZ-111 QL has a 51.91% win rate.

You can't compare those two, the QL is exclusive and mostly great players managed to get it. Comparing tech tree tanks by winrate is sensible.

Yet EBR's are still zigzagging on ice and mud without losing traction. Still making 90* turns, jumping 30 feet rolling always landing on wheels and racing away at 70 kph backwards. While shooting you causing 500 damage. Also the 279e has a 57% win rate, WG could work on that one?

video answer : 5:48

[@dyusi144]

Have played 3 matches in my kran since the update... gone 1-2. First was on mines vs 2 Minotauro's, 60TP and an AMX M4 54. Pfft... one big L (did I think 2k total and 1 kill but was not very influential in that rofl-stomp). 2nd was on Ghost Town. Got derped by a JPE HEAT in the turret and a CC1 Mk2 got a shot as I backed up. Died with 400 dmg. 3rd match was on Westfield - 4 kills, 5k dmg, 2k assist - 1st class. If it's on a ridgeline like Westfield or maybe Himmelsdorf hill or Redshire hills, it's still a potential beast. It's def far worse on more flat/open maps. I still think it's a good tank but the playstyle, depending on the map, def needs adjustment IMO. I have no intention so far of changing my equipment loadouts which are bond vents & bond vstabs and a turbo for ridge/open maps and improved hardening for city maps like Ruinberg. But maybe that will change w/ more gameplay... Can't help but find the irony in that they nerf this and then introduce the tier 9 & 10 Italian TD's (which WG doesn't even pretend to hide they treat them as heavy tanks since they all appear as grey heavy tanks instead of the blue td's in the team list [heard Minotauro was fixed Sunday or Monday but the CC1 Mk2 and Vipera still appear as of this morning]). Has WG ever heard of a cupola weak spot??

Yayyy my fav tenk. Question my Crane has Bond vents on it's Structure slot, with Coated Optics and Vert-Stabs. I kibda want to replace Vert-Stabs for a Spall Liner since i got focused by every arty everytime i try to play the game

[@Llamajake777]

Spall liner against arty isnt very beneficial, so I wouldnt change it especially with v-stabs

[@harry8912]

Nerf the Kranvagn and introduce the Minotauro. WG logic.

[@FlyLeah]

People are complaining like this nerf ruined the vehicle

[@tomaskadlec9534]

It would be enough to bring back HE and many tanks would suddenly be balanced again and whole classes and tech trees would become relevant again. But no, WG has to listen to cries of 47% WR morons who like to sit on ridge lines for entire games...
