Patriot buff looking juicy.
(T95E2 cries in the corner)
At least the T95E2 has been buffed once to get past the 181 pen he shared with the T69. But I don’t expect to see it get buffed again anytime soon in the areas it needs.
For the US Tech Tree I’m suprised WG ignores the E8 and partially the T20, not that the latter is a bad tank. But the T20’s dpm could, after all these years, be increased to be more inline with the ‘Eagle 7’ which trades mobility for armor.
The Easy8 on the other hand could get a Ammunition swap to the M79 shell wich has 149 penetration and 115 damage.
On the positive the M29 finally got it’s DPM and penetration buffed to comparable tier 8 levels for a 90mm gun. It is quite astonishing they’ve let it linger for soo long with it’s “release” stats on that.
