VIDAR is the first vehicle which got me a nuke. I had 11 kills and 1 assist and fought at a pretty close range. My team was losing and with most team members dead, I still had 0 deaths. I decided to jump out and nuke the whole thing.

Just as balanced as my Leopard 1 fighting T-72s or my T-54 1949 fighting XM1s. LSF, Rangefinder and Thermals at 7.7? Dude that thing has more tech than all of 7.7 - 8.0 USSR and Germany combined. Truly peak Gaijin.

I feel like, a lot of the times at long range, I'll fire and just get a hit, and the hit replay shows it just kinda... hit nothing, and detonated early, despite there being nothing between me and my target. That, and if the vehicle is tilted to either side even a little it completely makes the shell go off to the side. The problem with a sniping vehicle in WT is that EVERYTHING can snipe because maps often aren't that big. Even the big maps aren't THAT big. And if anything at all hits you, you will lose half your crew and half your mechanics.

This thing NEEDS to be 9.0 MINIMUM. I'm so tired of fighting it. It's also obnoxiously resilient to APDS -- which either wont pen because the armor is trolly as hell, or somehow fails to go all the way through the tank's hull like APDS is SUPPOSED to. Like even in the vid, there were 2 instances of the new-er BTR just not being able to pen the VIDAR even w/ it's 80-ishmm pen APDS rounds at point blank.

This is now 8.0br.. I think as it seems Gaijin does.. They will sell the hell out of it and once sales flatten out they will increase it to 8.7br or even 9. Just like they did with the Brit Fox.. Lotsa ppl sent a lot of GE to get to it's level to get it, then once that flattened out and Gaijin made it's money, they jacked it up to 7.7br.. Funny how before Gaijin had the Fox lower, it wal always out there every battle.. Now not so much.. same will happen with the Vidar.. (IMHO) anyway.. Maybe on the new big update that is coming this summer.

I don’t mind this tank & tanks like this including the t95 tortoise ect, but I do find they have a good influence on the match, but I find it also team dependent…. Ie u need to have at least a half smart team for it to be some what effective.. if u have a bot team. Then u are just an easy target…. Perhaps I’m too aggressive in these and lights. As well Especially when it comes to bot teams.

I dont think they will uptier it tbh, the HE is ass against anything with spaced armor or heavy armor. the reload could be nerfed for sure but considering how huge it is and no armor it wouldnt do to hot at higher tiers especially once composite armor come into play. HE is a major dice roll, at range in a match yesterday it was struggling to kill M48s at all from the front. Unless you can land a shell on top it just doesnt kill.
