Thread: Thoughts on Panzergrenadiers10 Apr 2019, 05:11 AM If they are getting durability it shouldn't be an extra man or armour it should be a damage reduction like rangers have that way they don't get wiped by explosives on approach. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Cav Rifles9 Apr 2019, 23:06 PM Idk I definitely see where you are coming from, but without it they are 1cp assault infantry with smoke without it. They are nothing really special. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: State of Tank Balance9 Apr 2019, 11:49 AM I was sure the pen got nerfed also. Wasn't the idea to reduce its effectiveness against heavier armour because masses were so strong? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Give 222 smoke by default?9 Apr 2019, 09:26 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Apr 2019, 08:15 AMVipper The stat of EHP for these vehicles vs penetration 1 weapons. M20 no skirts EHP front 2.640 Rear 1.320 222 EHP front 3.060 Rear 1.440 M20 skirts EHP 5.280 Rear 2.640 In other words 222 has around x116% more EHP than the non skirted M20 while the skirted M20 has x173% more EHP. My point still stands the 222 is not more durable than a skirted M20, in fact the M20 is significantly more durable. thats still quite the difference in durability before (and after) skirts. also important, hand AT. shreks deal 120 damage, so the hard HP of the m20 could have it dead by 2 hit, but the 222 needs 3 zook hits. ill admit i didnt realize the m20 stock armour was that high, but i stand by my point, the 222 is more durable. unless you add a boat load of munitions to the m20 that is.

Thread: I hear the new patches have made western allies op?9 Apr 2019, 06:30 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Apr 2019, 05:57 AMNaOCl Yeah, so off base that it's funny. Did JLI lose their camo, ability to SPRINT or LOS that allow them to pick and chose what fights they want? Do they no longer have a 50% accuracy bonus when attacking from cover ensuring they can get reliable damage out which makes the 70% crit more likley to proc? I'm not sure where you are coming from, I don't think you do either as shown by your reluctance (or perhaps inability) to provide anything to the contrary. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Revamp Volksgrenadiers terms of versatility OKW9 Apr 2019, 04:18 AM I'd see Sturmpios adjusted in tandem with volks Something roughly along these lines (very roughly) Reduce their price to 260-280 area Replace 2 stgs with mp40s Standard repair speed Flame nade Normal wire Mines 1 use med kit instead of 3 Sort of a jack of all trades master of none engineer. Offers a more balanced awnser to garrisons that can afford to come earlier without being too much die to squishyness. Still the best around, but not overbearing Upgrade paths: assault-- return to 4 stgs (maybe 2x with the pgren profile?) Stun nade Slight reduction in target size Can use grenade assault if they have that commander -gives an option to create something more offensive without requiring the standard repair guys cost 300mp. 45mu Utility-- increased repair and build speeds Sweeper Maybe Shrek? 3 use med kit returns Current barricade wire added but with normal wire laying speed Faster laying mines. Sandbags. -for those that want to make better use of the defensive powers. More quickly they can do any engineering type jobs and improved. Good for late game refinement when your armour is getting its tits kicked in. In: COH2 Balance

Mmmmmmmm depends entirely on the situation, which JLI get to dictate due to camo and sprint and LOS. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Kubel needs changes9 Apr 2019, 03:58 AM If it can start gaining its vet it will become more survivable. Vet 2 is 20% increased mobility and vet 3 is self heal. The issue is getting there. It doesn't need a rework if that alone makes it scale better. Also you want to change its vet 1 "to better suit its role" but it's current vet suits it's current role. You want to change its vet to suit the role you want to change it to. It's current vet 1 ensures that if that's the only level of vet you get on it. Detection is a toggle that gives you minimap spotting. It allows yoi to not be out flanked. Terribly powerful. You have to be careful not to make it too powerful in combat or we return to Kuble storm,unless you plan on sticking a fuel cost on to it. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Kubel needs changes9 Apr 2019, 01:14 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Apr 2019, 00:20 AMBalanced_Gamer It does not mean Kubel problems should be ignored. You can compare exactly to Brits. Infantry Section combo with UC. That is great AI stacked faction. I do not see the issue in fixing Kubel which it currently experiences. Could one counterclaim this as an issue also, vice versa? OKW does have access to good AI units but it does not mean that Kubel should remain the way it is being lackluster. It needs to do more as a support unit. Compare it to UC which is perfect as a support unit. It should least meet its standards of being able to support or have good DPS which it is currently lacking. Have an MG upgrade option would be good. Change vet 1 ability as "Detection" is considered OP for more combat effectiveness. Why would anyone pick Kubel as it currently is. Definitely not 1v1 and most certainly not any higher. Pros even can elaborate that fact. Kubel should be a glass canon. Strong damage output but weak as it currently is. That should not be a problem for allies to counter it at all. Kubel should not be a derelict choice if it is there. If no changes are made, then I suggest replacing it with another unit if nobody wants to see it changed!. UC is 50mp more (volks and penals cost difference) that's why it's better in combat. It's also UKFs anti garrison tool. The combo of UC and Tommy is pretty good, but not nearly as synergistic as sturms and a Kuble. If a UC takes damage it needs to spend muni to repair or wait until sappers hit the field. UC and tommies also puts UKF on the back foot for map control. Follow up infantry are also more expensive. UC is also significantly slower than a Kuble. Adjust the Kuble vet so it can earn it and see where that goes. Full on overhaul very well might not be needed. You want it to suppress? That's in its vet! So is self heal. You really need to stop comparing it to the UC though. It's a more expensive unit designed to augment the UKFs lack of field control and their initial bleed. It's a strong fighter because it's designed to. That's it. It can't scout and it doesn't cap.. Players do build it. I build it and I see it alot in team games because it allows 1 unit to do the back capping of multiple players and still catch up in time to contribute to the initial fight. I've also used it to get behind that pesky starting vickers and pushing off the first unit they built. Putting more AI into the okw starting will make it overbearing and impossible to play against with 2 shock units. Sturms as it is can already dominate the start of the game, let alone with a no bleed, fast, murder machine in tow. In: COH2 Balance
