From the topic you can see a problem. Sturmtiger 1-shot ISU from the front and destroyed it. Is it right?

Wait a second. ISU has 1040 hp and Strumtiger does 640damage so how it could kill ISU with 1 shot?

From my experince, clear hit into rear armor of ISU takes over 1/2hp and make crew shocked for a while.

Replay please.

I am skeptical. Not really doubting you, but a replay would be useful. Might be possible that a Jagdtiger shot connected at the same time as the Sturmtiger rocket or something like that.

I have no replay, but there was no JT at the field. Bad luck only. Your choice not to believe me.

Not saying I don't believe you, but without a replay... nothing we can do here. If your question is if this SHOULD happen, then no, what we know from the stats indicates this should not happen. I never personally shot an ISU with a Sturmtiger before, nor saw it happen, so we can't say for sure.

I was near my base - Sturmtiger come on 1v1 duel - I made my shot - did not penetrate - sturm fire its rocket - wrecked my ISU.

Yeah, that's my question

Even at Point Blank if you go off the damage stats it isn't possible. So also skeptical.

On top a friendly mine when it hit you?

I will be the first to say that the sturmtiger's damage is very unpredictable. Ive landed point blank shots on t34's and it hasnt killed, while other times you can wipe a (full health?) ISU.

Both cases presented are statistically impossible- the Sturmtiger does 640 damage and will never deflect off a T3476, so a direct hit will always kill or leave it at 1HP with crits. The rocket has 150 penetration, so it will go through the ISU's front half the time- if it does, it takes 640HP off the ISU. If it doesn't it does 320 damage and gives a crit. Either way it cannot oneshot an ISU, ever.. even if the ISU were on top of a friendly mine, or even a friendly demo-charge.

Couldn't it 1 shot if the ISU were on top of an M20 mine? 640+400 would be a one shot yes?

M20 mine (or teller mine), yes, but the guy said it was a 1v1 so I don't think american mines would factor in.

A B4 one shot a full health panther once, is it some kind of bug or what?

with vet 2 or 3 it gets +50% damage iirc, so 960 damage which is enough to oneshot a panther regardless of veterancy.

I don't see any replay, so I don't see the problem.
