Panther II is blatantly busted at 6.7

try fighting this ♥♥♥♥ with a t-34-85 or jumbo, 0 chance to pen basically 100 meters+. Better hull armor than t-29 because, A LOT BETTER mobility with a fake 1000 hp engine, at lower br lmao.

good thing you can't research it anymore then I guess.
a little tip, it's a hard shot to hit but from the from you should aim for the periscope on either side of the turret.

problem is the mantlet, at 500 meters+ shots become inaccurate, and you hit the large mantlet a lot even if you dont want to and then you dont pen

i have the panther II and when i play it its always full uptier, and when i decided to play t-34-85 there are panther II s dominating every match and they get full downtiers, BALANCED.

It's balanced by the fact that a. It can't be researched anymore and b. the repair cost is like 10,000 SL. So you need to get at least three kills to break even. The bigger issue is that the T-34-85 should be 5.3 instead of 5.7. Regardless, you're completely capable of defeating a Panther 2 head-on in a T-34-85. If you're this pissed off about 1 tank and you're only at 5.7, good luck in the future when you face tanks you actually can't defeat frontally and will have to learn to use some brain cells to flank or do some track and barrel torture.

Pretty sure most people do, it's a waste of time to play these vehicles when you can do similar things in vehicles that don't just eat up all your profit.

No one is forcing you to play that BR just go lower or higher.

Tiger 2 cant flank your entire team, "just shoot the cheeks" he says, with the t-34-85? or the 5.7 sherman? At least you flank the tiger 2, this thing has better mobility than %90 of medium tanks.

uptiers happen, get used to it. If you encounter a tank a full br higher than you it sucks. But just cause a 6.7 tank is way better than a 5.7 tank, it doesnt mean its overpowered.
