A preliminary review of the changes in the performance characteristics of the techtree vehicles, which was sent to EU bloggers, from the upcoming update, has leaked onto the Internet.

❗️ IMPORTANT: these are preliminary changes and the performance characteristics may still be changed before the 1.27.1 Common Test! Keep this in mind.

    1. This is just the stock configuration. It will ease up the stock grind. Nothing will change about the top E75, other then the armour buffs (although I can’t find the 245 mm plate that is to be buffed to 260).

    1. The only tanks that need slight buff is the E100 but Tiger 2 + E75 too strong already

      1. Tiger 2 got only buffs to stock gun so no change ro the top configuration. It just mean that it will be easier to grind through it.

  1. Fire power changes to the E100 are nice. Personally I would like to see all the 750 alpha HT rebalanced around 650 (just leave TDs at 750). Really doesn’t need the armour buff, maybe a bump in top speed to 35km/h instead?

    Stock E75 buffs are nice, as are those for the Tiger II, it would have been nice if the VK45.02 A/B got similar, but I digress. Top E75 gun absolutely does not need a buff.

    1. you know, this is only the 8,8. he still has the 10,5 gun. 😉

      all in all: the turret armor buff of E100 is welcome, with its nominal angle this would mean close to 320 mm effective armor. angle the turret slightly and the HEAT spammers will hate this.

      E75 is already fine in my book.

      the buff to Tiger IIs stock turret is welcome for all thos to grind through it. and the 8,8 L71 will be insane for Frontline etc., where you don’t need the pen and alpha of the 10,5. dpm and acc will be crazy.

      1. You are right, they didn’t remove the L68! Puh, even with all these buffs, a Tiger 2 with 280 Alpha would be a complete mess.

  2. Most buffs for the Tiger 2 and E75 are for the stock grind, cause they can be really hard to fight with at stock.
