at range 35, sapper can deal 21.304 dps with 2 bren guns and a vicker k, or 23.004 dps with 3 vicker K setup.
That is roughly close to a vet3 mg 42 grenadier - 23.698 - which often come before that timing, while require 2.5 to 3 time of munition cost and a latest tech that lock out an other actual meta unit. i said before that this isnt a good design, but what exactly is OP about it, consider all the cost and drawback ?
Comparing DPS without durability means very little.
I suggest you test them (as I have) vs other units and see how well the perform.
There are no drawbacks to the Heavy sapper upgrade.
Glad to see that you agree with me that they the upgrade is badly designed and should be looked before certain user started to derail the thread with his pointless posts.
If heavy sapper 3 lmg's commbat capable can be call "strong" to the point of Op then i guess all the wining about lmg42 grenadier can shut the **** up by now.
Even the fact that you are comparing a durable engineer unit with a "glass cannon" main line infatry is indication that they punch above the role.
Sappers have a lot of potential with their low cost. But it has to be tested. It´s too soon to argue. I am all in for testing. But i am very bad with UKF hmu in chatbox
You can run tested in cheat mode.
