Wow what a major buff for the batchat, exactly going to change the tank. 2.8 seconds might even make it too OP!

About time for a KpfzPz 70 buff! 

[wrecker1968]

Thank you for the information

[generalhonks]

Do you think that they will ever buff the Mod 1 and Chieftain/T95? 

[LordDumptruck]

That Hellcat buff is pretty slick!

It’s not much of one. They should give it missles too for the special game modes! KpfPz 70 Missle

Yes it is. Truly silent but deadly.

5mm pen buff on heat, +10 to heat DMG... to match the tier 9/10 lights... and the kpfpz will still have 40 lower he alpha than the other XM150E's unless they notice that...

BC intraclip of 2.8 secs is interesting. Why not 2.5? Is there any other tank with a 2.8 intraclip?

Why? Mod 1 is just fine as is, and the Chieftain/T95 recently got a buff. If anything, they need to shave off the cupola and viola-tea and biscuits.

I don’t know, maybe a slight pen buff for the Mod 1 and remove the cupola from the Chieftain.

2.8 seems like a silly number, not sure where the advantage is going to show up. 
And if you shave off the cupola, will it be an open air tank?

Maybe, but the Mod 1 used to be OP, so I'd rather dust-collectors get buffs before it does. IMHO the pen is just fine if you run calibrated shells. Chieftain seems meh, but just wiggle the turret around for some troll cupola bounces.

Forgive me as I've haven't been paying attention to the game recently but the missile changes caught my eye. When you said that the alpha for the T92E1 and the Sheridan is now 490, does that mean the premium ammo damage or has the alpha been decreased for the APCR? I do really hope now that Sheridan is getting ATGMs removed it is buffed in other ways.

ATGMs are being removed from normal game modes. All players who had the Sheridan before 7.5 will get the Blue Sheridan (Sheridan that has missiles and can only be used in special game modes), as well as a camo for their normal Sheridan( which doesn’t have missiles and can be used in all game modes). I assume this changes the Sheridans name in battle to Sheridan Comet, but I could be wrong. So now all players who have the Sheridan currently will have two Sheridans after 7.5, one that can be used in any mode and on that cannot. I hope that made sense to you.

[generalhonks]

I forgot to mention: the missiles on the normal Sheridan are being replaced by a new HEAT shell with 310 mm of pen and 490 alpha.

Honestly, the Batchat buff ticks me off enough to offset my joy for the removal of atgms.

2.8 intraclip? What a joke. I'd prefer to keep it at 3 seconds rather then that weird number.

[KempBushThe3rd]

No mention of the Vickers CR or Emil I, and the Vickers Light nerf is to the mantlet by only 25mm.

 

And honestly at this point why not just give the BatChat 350 alpha? Especially if the TVP comes into the game in its current state, the Bat will just be rendered obselete.

[_Crusader6_]

Uhm they are nerfing Patton dispersion to 0.35"?

Didn't even notice that

 

WHY

[THERebrth]

yea wth, the m48 is fine just the way it is and wg wants to nerf it??????

 

I am sure it wont happen. Because if that happens the tank is going to become even more irrelevant
