Thread: LeFH damage buff at vet 1? (better against vehicles)11 Aug 2015, 19:52 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Aug 2015, 18:33 PMAlexzandvar Why set it to private? And the argument here is that the LeFH doesn't have any real advantage over the ML-20. The thing you are currently "posting screens of" affects the ML-20 to the same extent. Again showing that the ML-20 is either the same in most stats or just straight up better in the case of damage. Why you cannot hold even month without changing avatar/signature? It's irrelevant I thought we were not comparing ML-20 to LeFH in that special case but vet 2 LeFH and vet 3 LeFH but since I proved vet 3 is more accurate you turned it into "it does not maater cause ML-20 is still better".

Thread: LeFH damage buff at vet 1? (better against vehicles)11 Aug 2015, 17:29 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Aug 2015, 17:16 PMAlexzandvar Did you use that artillery officer to shoot them? Because like I said; the vet 2 gun and vet 3 gun are two totally separate things. Like in the files when a howitzer reaches vet 3 it gets a new gun. Also the artillery officer marked targets use different stats as well; for instance when marking a target the Pwerfer will shoot it's original 16 rocket payload. No officer. Simple barrage. Many may not be correct but this is perfectly fine since vet 3 hit all shells inside smaller circle, while vet 2 is way more inaccurate. So... LeFH loses nothing at vet 3 and it's more accurate with vet 3. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: LeFH damage buff at vet 1? (better against vehicles)11 Aug 2015, 17:00 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Aug 2015, 16:00 PMAlexzandvar The indication of the circle in game has nothing to do with a units scatter. It's wrong on almost every unit in the game. Like I literally just posted the stats ripped from the game files. At vet 3 the howitzers have totally separate guns which is why the scatter reduction from vet 2 goes away. SO riddle me this. How is it possible that vet 2 LeFH is less accurate than Vet3? Because of I understand you correctly, vet 2 has better accuracy but the circle is bugged (showing bigger) while vet 3 is less accurate and, again, bugged circle whch is smaller, right? According to this, how Vet 2 is more accurate? In: COH2 Balance

(better against vehicles)11 Aug 2015, 15:56 PM Jump back to quoted post11 Aug 2015, 14:49 PMAlexzandvar It gets -15% scatter at vet 2 which it loses at vet 3 And I say you, I tried it. At vet 2 scatter is perfectly the same. But it's getting smaller on vet 3. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: LeFH damage buff at vet 1? (better against vehicles)11 Aug 2015, 14:00 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Aug 2015, 23:08 PMAlexzandvar The accuracy on vet 2 goes away once you hit vet 3. I belive this is wrong. At vet 2 scatter is the same like for unvetted and vet 1. At vet 3 scatter is a way smaller. So I'd say it does not lose anything. Just accuracy buff is moved to vet 3 instead of vet 2. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: CAS commander in team games11 Aug 2015, 11:59 AM Jump back to quoted post11 Aug 2015, 09:11 AMCyanara Actually, I killed the ISU of a high level player with a single AT strafe once, shortly before CAS became widespread I think it was slightly damaged from AT guns, but not much. I hit it in the rear armour with the strafe. Yup. Mine (or stun shot) -> Crippled ISU -> AT strafe -> Bye bye ISU. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: ML-20 152mm Howitzer10 Aug 2015, 23:07 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Aug 2015, 22:13 PMAlexzandvar Were you testing them at max or medium range? Did you place them by a place that could reinforce? How many barrages did it take? Just saying "Oh I did it this what happened" tells us nothing. But if you took the time to look at the stats you would see that literally the only thing the LeFH has on the ML-20 is more shells fired; 4 with no vet and 2 with vet. Seems pretty lackluster of an advantage for being much much worse in the damage department while still costing exactly the same. This also doesn't take into account the design of both factions, with the LeFH not exactly drowning in targets due to the fact both Allied factions are not designed around defensive play. EDIT: The correct way to use the LeFH is German Mech Doctrine. Recon with smoke drop, scopes, and Command Tank to reduce damage from incoming artillery. Also you can't chose what target counter-barrage fires at, so having it on all the time is a very bad idea. Max range without reinforce. ML-20 may be in favour if you take a look at stats, but they mean nothing when it comes to howie vs howie. It's about who will first get 2 hits or who first will get juicy hit right in the center of howie. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: ML-20 152mm Howitzer10 Aug 2015, 21:56 PM Jump back to quoted post10 Aug 2015, 21:06 PMAlexzandvar An LeFH is never going to beat an ML-20 in an artillery duel. The counter to ML-20 is stuka bombing strike or railway artillery, not shooting back. I mean shooting back is better than nothing lol but it's no guarantee of success. This is simply wrong. Just lanched a test. ML-20 barraging LeFH, LeFH using counter barrage. 1 win for ML-20 1 win for LeFH 8 draws (both survived/both destroyed/out of crew). In: COH2 Balance
