The strength isn’t in the armor. It’s in the gun, turret and mobility. It’s a low floor, high ceiling tank. Bad player struggle in it, but good players can crush people.
Gotcha. I'm lucky he didn't hit me then.
I picked the T26 over the 252U, even though i prefer Russian tanks to American ones. I wanted something with a good ROF that could move around a little bit. I drive it like a medium and I've started to do pretty well in it by my standards. When I'm with a clan mate I really feel confident in it. I haven't had terribly much trouble against the 252, because most of their drivers don't fight with them hull down. So I put rounds through that front lower plate. If they hit you though
.... about twice the damage of the T26.
Still after reading these forums I feel like I got the wrong tank. I'm SLOWLY getting better though and I feel like I can make the T26 work. I love the ROF and the accuracy of the gun. Its mobile for a "heavy" too. Seems like its a pretty good tank. If I was a pretty good player...lol.
I got the PZIV S too and I LOVE it. The only problem is when it gets up tiered it is heavily over matched. Going up against Annihilators, IS tanks, Tiger II isn't much fun. But its still a great pick IMO. It's been getting me 50k a game and I'm a bad player. I love it for the same reason I love the T26E5. Not a thumper, but It has an accurate, fast firing gun that pens things as long as you aren't bottom tier.
I got that T62 tank from the event tickets too but I haven't used it. I'm not good with light tanks past the Lepard.
