Sturmtiger over nerfed

Jump back to quoted post10 Nov 2021, 11:31 AMMr Carmine

It has a hp advantidge over the avre and a total damage advantidge wich lets it do a bit better vs vehicles but the avre is better vs inf with a bigger one hit kill radius. It has a speed advantidge as well i believe over the avre.

Any unit that can insta wipe squads consistently in one shot feels cheap. I get that it would be a lot easier to deal with in 1v1, but in teams games your units will always be closer (confined up in your sector of the map, no not blobbing). An AVRE screened by infantry is a great tool to break up your opponent's lines without firing before picking off a squad. To be honest I'd like to see the AVRE have the exact same stats as the Sturmtiger. People will defend it saying the fractions are nuanced and make up for it in another way. These are both meme vehicles and I wish their purpose would change entirely (Maybe lessen there damage/squad wiping potential in favour of more stun/suppression?)

Sorry for the bad grammar.

PS: Looks like there is never go to be another balance patch. No real point in hanging around. Just wanted to get it off my chest I guess. Take care!

These vehicles overpunish a player's mistake, that is spamming inf blobs. That's the only reason people still talk about them to this day. One atg is enough to keep ST at bay, 2 are deadly.

After all we are talking about 180fu single shot casemates which most ppl skip P4J to get which is many times bad. Really a non issue to a player with half a brain. Not to mention that allies get 140fu tank rapists.

Balance teams must cope after all.

But it must have been the bad allies players who lost their squads to out of sight one hit murder machines with 1500 HP (the highest in the game), l2p fault!!!!!11!1!!!!!

Absolutely.

The only trully OP thing in the Elite Armored commander that nobody talks about are the HEAT shells, which can 2 shot tank destroyers (if you put them on Tiger Ausf. B) coupled with the vision from the field commander on tanks. That's the OP stuff we could talk about (or not, I enjoy winning with them).

ST is a bad joke in 2022 patch terms, where Allies can field the best TDs for the price of a PzIV and have doctrinal OP options for sight (I&U Paths, Paths, LV supremacy etc). Not to mention crazy loiters which can literally target both inf and tanks. 100% non issue.

you dont have a single idea what i am talking about, the pre nerf sturmtiger was basically game breaking for only 160 fuel cost


now its balanced, it is extremely tanky but not long range on top of it

Its balanced, cause its worthless now.

The whole fucking design is dumb. One shoting units without much counterplay in a game where veterancy on units matters is game breaking.

Jump back to quoted post19 Mar 2022, 15:46 PMGeblobt

The unit does either whats its supposed to do and is therefore broken like last patch, or it cant do that and therefore is useless like in the currrent patch.

?



So is the ability to one shot units "game breaking" or "worthless" then?




Ahh so you're saying that the Sturmtiger is only useful if it can one shot units from the fog of war. I get it. Opinion discarded.

Sturmtiger is fine as it is. Breaks up blobs, forces retreats with its mere presence. Can instakill unsupported teamweapons and braindead blobbers. It doesn't need to do more than that and it shouldn't for the price point.

so you doubt the wisdom of the average forum blobber and balance team member?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!!11111oneoneoneone

Id trust either of those groups about 100 times more than I would you. And I doubt I'm alone there

An ad hominem on a SARCASTIC post. Hitting rock bottom every day.

Hard to tell with you, even when you're being serious it reads like a joke...
