The Thompson unlike other SMG remain good at mid ranges.
It's actually fucking disgusting that they have higher dps at mid range than stg 44 which are actual fucking assault rifles.
Is a display of the dev and balance teams biases towards USF.
Assuming the KT was backing off so that the KT got hit at front armour (AT shells have a little delay). KT has 375 front armour, don't know the exakt penetration of AT overwatch, so I took 200 as approximate value. Chances of not penterating once are about 47%.
If you multiply the 47% chance for 13times with itself you get a chance of 0,0055%, so it happens once in about 20.000 ability uses vs a KT. So yes it is unlikely and yes with the amount of games already played it is pretty likely someone saw it happen once in his lifetime.
IIRC it has some 200-ish pen, but does deflection damage. So even if 11 bounces in a row would be theoretically possible (although the odds would still be astronomically small), dealing no damage at all is not. I'd like to see that replay as well
Wish I saved it, cause at the time it did not seem that important.
I was playing a game today and a KT bounded 13 consecutive shells from an AT overwtach. Is it supposed to do that???? I could have sworn that even ELE's didn't do that.
In a vacum from static positions. The avre is strong no doubt but within their respective factions the ST imo is a stronger unit imo. The ST is picked a lot more. But then again you dont see brits used a lot and maybe its used as much percentidge wise.
Cost shouldn't really take faction as a factor though.
Sturmtiger should be 700mp 200 fuel and immobile while reloading. Repair crit should not be available when reloading and it should be able to be decrewed if hit while reloading.
Current proposed nerfs are not enough.
But Tightrope showed the ARVE is objectively better.
