Nerf il2 Rocket run

Jump back to quoted post3 Mar 2020, 11:32 AMSander93

What we could try is giving it lower penetration (around 90) and adding deflection damage of something like 50%. That way it will still be lethal to snared/rammed mediums and Panthers (guaranteed rear armor pens and even with deflection damage when hitting the front armor the rockets should do enough damage to kill a 50-75% hp medium tank) while reducing the effectiveness against heavies by around 33-50% as most have around 150 rear armor. Essentially the same was done for AT Overwatch.

But the commander will already take quite a hit with the increased SVT cost, so it's probably better to wait and see if it'll still be needed to go after the AT strafe too.

I think the CAS Stuka AT strafe cost 110 or 120 mun for the same result (maybe a bit less AOE than IL-2 rockets). The main difference is the Combo with ram which makes it easier to use for SU than OST.

This is true bit Ost also have target weak point

People also have to remember the doctrine already got hit with nerfs to SVTs, we don't want another mobile assault overnerf situation

for me prodigy just showed his superior skill and very good usage of this ability that allowed him to kill the tiger, normally it doesnt work that easy, that was actually very lucky that he got perfect timing and positioning to use IL2
btw for me it is also way too expensive for what it offers. you need to waste 300mp 90 fuel and 100munnies... WAY TOO EXPENSIVE, i think cost should be down only to 50 munnies, and the plane arrival takes too long also
