I was in the same dilemma. I think a high caliber tank with full HE would do the trick. Was gonna try it with the 268 v4 but maybe the SU-152 would be a better bet.

Hiding stats and retaining a username wouldn't work at all. XVM would just update so as to show the last recorded stats of the player before they hid their stats, and you'd be back to square 1. I was initially skeptical of this name hiding feature, as I thought it might have been possible for XVM to somehow fetch the original name, but they claim that this problem is solved. Another potential problem with this is making the list of possible nicknames something predictable, because if one originally used XVM to target the best players before, and now they see someone had their name hidden through a pattern of predictable hidden names, they'd assume that anyone who has hidden their name is a good player and proceed to focus them.

Wait a minute Could it be that it's finally fixed?

It wouldn't be a Wargaming change without taking something that needs a simple change and unnecessarily overcomplicating it.

New Sandbox just went up with the ammo changes they were talking about. TL;DR: What they've done is essentially increase standard ammo damage and increase the health of all tanks, whilst keeping penetration the same. Premium and HE rounds remain unchanged.

I see it as a good thing that the proposed nerfs failed, since they took the approach of making the 430 and 430U frustrating to play and didn't actually change how frustrating they were to play against. Their statistics almost certainly reflected that.

T49: 30 T54E1: 30 T30: 30 T95: 30 M46 Patton: 30 M103: 30 - 3 = 27 - The M103 just hasn't survived the test of time well. Back in the day this was one of the best heaviums, but since then, a lot of other Tier 9 heavies have been introduced that do its job, but better. What also doesn't help is that it's got a massive turret that is made of ammoracks, so angling it even 20 degrees makes the sides an easy pen WT Auf Pz. IV: 30 Jagdtiger: 30 VK4502B: 30 Mauschen: 30 E75: 30 E50: 30 Leopard PTA: 30 RU251: 30 Object 704: 30 Object 263: 30 T-54 LW: 30 T-54: 30 Object 430: 30 Object 430 V2: 27 Object 705: 30 Object 257: 30 T-10: 32 ST-I: 30 Centurion 7/1: 27 Tortoise: 30 Conqueror: 30 Conway: 27 Foch: 30 AMX M4 51: 30 + 1 = 31 - Speaking of tanks that do the M103's job better, the AMX M4 51 with the 120mm seems near unstoppable if top tier, and can still hold its own against Tier 10s. With frontal hull armor that's Gold resistant to all Tier 7s and most Tier 8s and just out of reach of standard Tier 9 and 10 pen, coupled with its good mobility and above average firepower, this tank can be a bully most tanks that it comes up against.

So it seems that WG has changed their mind again and decided to completely ignore player outrage on the changes to the 263 line. Their pathetic attempt at justifying the change is below: It's a real shame that they're gutting one of the most unique Tier 10 TDs in the game, and in my opinion, one of the best aggressive tanks in the game in favour of statistics.

TY but it was mostly the fact that I played 7,000 games on a 5 FPS toaster that caused the horrible overall stats. Came back last September with something that could run the game and could actually apply my knowledge and here I am

I mean, Mediums still have the 2 key, but yeah I feel that on most maps, the team with more superheavies wins because Meds can swoop around whilst 1 or 2 superheavies can hold an entire flank. This is just from my experience, might not be the case for others.

Murazor up to his usual retardation. Type 5 Heavy now has a derp which deals 1,100 damage with standard HE and 1,400 with Gold HE (Both have 75mm pen). On top of that, its armor got buffed to the point where they consider 270mm ports on the front of the hull "weakspots". Maus got an overall armor buff, a better reload and 200 extra health. It did have a lowest possibile reload of 9 seconds, but they nerfed the reload a tad and removed the extra 200 health.
