JadgTiger Supporting Fire Ability

New topic

Can someone tell me what the ability does and its potential uses?

The description claims it fires three accurate rounds. I've used it and it seemed to fire three rounds at the same speed as a regular shot (so, quite slowly) and they still scattered fairly widely from the point I selected.

It also costs munitions. What is the advantage in using this ability over attack ground?

Thanks.

The Jagdtiger fires the three round faster than autofire. Only really useful against slow or stationary vehicles, like the ISU 152.

Whoops, sorry about naming issue. Ok, so it fires slightly faster? Thanks. I'm putting this in the never use category for me

given the cost, scatter, and what appeared to be very small fire rate increase.

Thanks for the replies (and corrections) guys

It fires almost twice as fast, about the same rate as an average tank. For such a big gun, that's pretty fast to get 3 shots out. They also have slightly tighter spread than a normal shot.

Hmmm perhaps I'm wrongly remembering how slow it fires on regular fire mode.

With the spread ... that only applies when a shot is calculated as a miss normally right? So when using the ability to target an area (as I believe you have to?)it translates to a lot greater variation in shots than usual.

It fires a lot faster and more accurate. Additionally I think it skips a reload cycle if you trigger that ability and with autofire on a static target tends to allow you to get 1 (autofire) + 1 to 2 (ability) shots on target before it's actually moved out of the area. That's in most cases enough to either destroy or at least heavily damage the target. For 30 munition, that's fine for me

Sounds fair and balanced.

It fires 2 shots immediately, then a third shot a few seconds later

I just gibbed an enemy ISU using it. Fired one auto shot, activated the ability, boom dead ISU

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.

Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.
