All i am hearing is nerfs when the thing is in fact fine.
Its 15 cp you need to prepare for it properly. In the same way that you have to prepare for IS-2
Its literally the last thing that unlocks CP wise. You will have your full commander before he dose.
Regarding TWP when chasing down a Jackson its generally better to lead with TWP as you can stop it and finish it in 3 shots over like 15s.
And again if you run over a mine with TA its done if they can follow up properly. Your sweeping has to be good. It's not a #Yolo tank its something you use with care.
You seem to think I regard it as a balance issue.
I will re-iterate - my true issue with it is the design issue of costing no initial fuel what so ever, the health being weirdly more than a regular Tiger after it was specifically changed to match a regular Tiger and regular Tigers got another health reduction while the TA was forgotten. The 480 damage from the TWP combo is arguably more a balance issue, but like I said I'm pretty sure it's a bug that it can do that since I'm pretty sure the Pak's version is incapable of the same.
If it's shit after fixing those, then it's underpowered and deserves good buffs, like reducing the cost a ton. Underpowered things to be buffed to become balanced. But clear design issues are never tolerable.
