Thinking about it more, I'd have made the gun cooling function a bit like an [Italian] autoreloader but for accuracy rather than DPM (of course missed shots affect your effective DPM though). Not exact numbers, but I would increase the base accuracy to, say, 0.35, then have heat meter build up as you fire. As the gun gets hotter, up to a max value, you get steadily more inaccurate - it's up to the player to balance the need to fire vs heat buildup (shown in a little reticle indicator like when your rockets are on cooldown with a BZ). If you reach max heat you are locked there, heat will no longer decay until you take an extended firing break, say 20 seconds, at which point you get a little coolant flush effect and go into supercooled mode and get the special 0.28 accuracy on your next shot before returning to normal heat management. Alternatively you could get a button to press to manually use a limited-use coolant flush, again like the BZ rockets. Yes, it's a little physics-defying, but no worse than other stuff in WoT. For the 8-10 tanks I'd also give them a little dpm and speed buff, and the t10 slightly better armour.

This tank just needs a front hull armour buff. That's it It's just weird that a heavy tank only has 120mm frontal armour that makes every tank in tier 10 able to penetrate that front armour Should give 170mm and it's more than enough to be as good as super conqueror

@LeLeon7811 ай бұрын
T8 with 200 dpm more and 2-3 instead of 5 s for sniper mode would suit the tank better. DPM lacks compared to other tanks and the 5s sniper mode is more hindering than feature. Or just skip the sniper mode and make guns of all tiers 0.3 more acurate (with DPM improvement). The bad base accuracy for close range doesn't work well with shitty upper hulls as the T10 seems to have it. I haven't played to much with T8 and don't own T9-10 to judge them better.

And if your team has 3 top tier HT, from which only 2 are playing in heavy line, enemy has one tank adv. And also check the stats. Usually first are playing with the new tanks more exp. players and they sucks with it. Yes, very good players can make it work, but they can make much better work almost everything else. From ~35 tierX heavies this has like 6th worst performance so far - and when ordinary players without free XP will get their hands on it, the stats will fall down even more.

While the tier 9 one actually has decent armor, its big brother's armor is just a disappointment. The turret is fine but the hull is extremely weak for a tier 10 HT. The gun can be nice but since the tank fires once every 7s, its mechanics pretty much become irrelevant. The UFP needs to get buffed. Base accuracy needs to get buffed. If not top speed then stabilization needs to get buffed in order to give this tank a place in the game.

I have found on the tier 8 that cooling the gun doesn't make a massive difference, i've had an awful time with the gun. Very derpy. And these vehicles have MASSIVE hulls that both make the (relative) speed for a heavy a bit harder to work, as well as making using your gun depression effectively more difficult in quite a few positions in the game. So once you have these hulls that aren't very good & are big targets, then the odd gun depression, then the hull getting in the way of using the gun depression... it's just awkward. And to me as I have played, I feel like my .25 cooled dispersion on the Type 57 is largely the same as the alleged .26 on the Grille. Just fiction most of the time. I think these tanks LOOK awesome, and I wanted to grind the line and I did to tier 8... but they just aren't special in any way or even particularly effective in general. They are almost purely hulldown vehicles with bad guns and awkward gun depression that also operate like boats :(

Rather than buffing the DPM I'd rather give the tank more identity as we don't want to just have a better S Conq in the game (and we also already have various derivatives of S Conq playstyle like E5 and Yoh) My proposal is to make it better as a hulldown 2nd line HT. Give it a better alpha (420 should be enough) while keeping the gun handling and DPM at similar level. That way you need to expose yourself less (so less cupola exposure), no need to adjust the awkward hull too often, and using the gun cooling is more rewarding. Give it a better turret traverse and turret stabilization so it can acquire new target quicker. That should be a good start to give a niche to this tank.

people are playing this wrong. this is meant to be a sniper mid to long range tank cause of the suspension and accuracy. its made as a heavy because the second half of the game when most tanks died and people start getting closer to finish, it will have an advantage over the enemy mediums cause it has better armour. so this is a sniper that is prepared for endgame brawls. thats all. not a first line Heavy at all. this is like playing e50m or Leopard in close combat. take this tank as a leo or E50 with better armour. than you will have results.
