BZ-176 - My Favorite Tier 10 Heavy Tank

[@difgy4712]

I love it when I am in a tank with 330+ heat pen and can farm this broken piece of shh straight into the turret. Also, I always focus BZ players in order to punish them for playing game-breaking tank.

Not gonna lie, if I see a bz I just auto load gold because I hate those things

[@dinismantas7265]

I have a BZ-176 and did play it enough, but some weeks ago I sold it (still have it in recovery, off course). Wasn't even playing it anymore for some time. Couldn't have fun with it. I have to admit that the more I played the tank, the more often I felt disgusted by it. Certainly in those tier 6-8 matches. This tank manages two things at once: being absolutely OP and being beyond toxic (like a Cobra or an FV - not op, but very toxic). The BZ-176 was the single biggest mistake made by WG since I have been playing this game. Nerf it!

[@Terrorbrot]

Played 0 battles before i sold that thing and didn't regret it for a second.

[@Jallahz]

Selling premium tanks is the most stupid thing to do. Even though you don't play it and can recover it, it's still gonna cost you silver to recover it

[@unnecessaryammorack]

I feel you there. The tank isn't fun at all. It feels bad to play like the leafblower

[@dinismantas7265]

@@Jallahz silver is the easiest thing to get in this game. What is stupid (since the internet allows people to behave in a way they wouldn't if they had to meet the person eye to eye, I return the compliment) is having a gazillion number of tanks in your garage and the vast majority you never even play with it.

[@Jallahz]

@@dinismantas7265 yeah I get your point but it's still a waste you know. And there is a filter system in the game to find tanks more quickly. Maybe if you need the garage slot then alright. But personally, I find it a waste

[@glowsinthedark235]

I think the main problem with this tank is accuracy and armour. Give it like 250 on turret and 0.70 accuracy and then it’s balanced.

[@SastusBulbas1]

We have a 69% win rate Unicum playing the tank with every single available crew skill, bond equipment and directives, hardly a normal representitive of a tank. Funny enough often these videos show OP set ups. Where are the 48% players with standard equipment doing tier 11 performance in this, or who hit 4k like it's nothing while sporting 54% win rates in their BZ? Yes it's an OP tank, played here with OP equipment and OP crew, played by an OP player getting OP results, yet play 10 random tier 8 battles and you see many fail to do 1k damage, while many of it's opponents sit letting it spend 20.4 seconds reloading. Seems the only players farming hell out of this tank are the ones who win anyway. So we have above 50% skilled players farming hell out of an OP tank no one can get.

I just cant agree with anyone that says that this tank isn't fun. Yes it is overpowered, it might be "digusting" to play but it is EXTREMELY fun to bully everyone that appears in front of you. "But it isnt challenging to play it" maybe in a 15-0 game it isnt, but if you build it for a ramming build for example, or play only with AP or decide to go to different areas of the map that you aren't used to, it adds variety to the gameplay with this tank. This tank might not be good for the matchmaker, but it is certainly fun to play

[@zGJungle]

I still have this tank in my garage unplayed. Refuse to play it as I know how stupid it is to fight against, even 45% players can get positive win rates with this tank, so stupid.

they should at least reworks the shells, having a "bad shell" and premium "good shell" is dumb and since HE changes, High pen HE is much better. they could just give it normal AP, Heat with lower shell velocity so it can be blocked by track, fences and stuff, so if they bounce they dont do 200 damage still and HE with normal derp pen (maybe like 80), that would even out the playing field a bit, even tho it would still be too good, that would stop people just loading full HE since its just better. Since its not a "nerf" per say, they can say they "reworked and added shell variety" so they dont have to worry about having to refund anyone, since they didn't neft the tank.

It’s funny because it is absolutely overpowered and should be at tier 10. I was grinding the 50tp and couldn’t do anything to one of them. They hit me once and it hit my turret and penned and I couldn’t pen them at all. I ended up flanking around after 5 minutes of driving and putting only one shot into them before they turned and almost two hit me. No reason for a tier 9 to be outclassed completely by a tier 8. Better armor, mobility and gun. I don’t know about its view range or camo but with either tank those don’t matter since they’re too inaccurate to be used effectively at a longer range.
