The Company of Heroes 2 Veterancy Guide

why this huge Bonus at vet2 for the howitzer?

+100% damage +253% Penetration

About time someone made one of these, thank you so much! This is extremely useful.

Relic logic

Kill some mans so you have enough combat experience to heal your comrades, fire at enemy planes, sprint cloak etc

Kill some tanks so you can turn your turret even faster!

Kill some folks so your barrage can fire even further

Kill some germans so you can fire AT nades at enemy tanks

What do you think Veterancy should be? Just a blanket 10% accuracy for every unit at every level, or what?

explain yourself

Amazing guide, great CoH porn right there.

Why this makes logical?

inf gets better in all ways, from survival to killing,

Pios/CE's gets less bonuses but better repair skills,

MG's gets better in suppression and are harder to kill,

Mortars will be more accurate and harder to kill,

Snipers learned better to use scoped rifles, fire faster and with better accuracy and is better in cloaking,

paks turns and sets up faster, harder to kill and learned how to aim weak spots for better penetration.

Vehicles are used for light recon, gets faster, better accuracy when stationary and when on move

Arty Vehicles reloads faster, and fires with better precision

Light tanks are used as recon, gets worse crew bonuses than med or heavy tanks, better LoS

Medium tanks are standard tanks that gets good crew bonuses and speed ad little penetration

Heavy tanks gets best crew bonuses and better penetration


Relic vets for me are usually nonsense (vet 1 abilities or longer nade range?)

Good job guys and nice work Barton too. OKW vet .

received suppression bonuses are a big no no in my opinion, rest is nice

and what about okw level 4 and 5

Thank you guys for this guide.

typo: Conscripts' vet3 says "No long..." rather than "No longer..."

Also, I personally don't think Command Panther needs two columns, the auras already count as abilities. Just a matter of simplicity, really.

Hey,

Thanks for this great guide, I've been looking for this forever, and it's incredibly useful! I'm glad that someone is picking up the ball where Relic is dropping it. The one criticism I have is that it's missing the bulldozer sherman.

Thanks,

They haven't finished the heavy tank category yet. That'll be updated soon.

Hey, hey, waddya know! CE and pios do get combat bonuses after all! I'd always had my suspicions but everybody (including myself) pretty much seemed to take the in-game vet dialogue at its word.

IT'S FINALLY HERE!

great job, thvm guys!!!

This guide is freaking amazing, really, really well done guys.

Dis some of that next level shit.

Awesome guide, its amazing how many extra bonuses exist that the tooltips don't mention.

oh wow youre right, good catch!
it will be added soon but of the top of my head it has the same bonuses as the normal usf sherman

why this huge Bonus at vet2 for the howitzer?

+100% damage +253% Penetration

so it soft counters vehicles.

great chart, it's gonna help a lot.

This makes sense Barton but there is one downside to that. If you get your units vet up then they become extremely powerful which means that your opponent has no change of a comeback if you kill some of his units and he replaces them with new ones.
What i am saying is the vet units against none vet ones would be to unfair/unbalanced.

Wow! Nice job.
