@Hann
It's more than likely that the average AoE damage remained the same, but could be interesting seeing the performance once you account for vet2.
The problem is that i'm not sure how the vet 2 dmg buff is applied.

If anything just take the coh2db stats and replace only with this:

HE Barrage AOE damage from 1/0.15/0.125 to 1/0.375/0.125
HE Barrage AOE distance from 1.5/3/4.5 to 0/3/5

Then for vet2, just apply a raw 16.7% increase in the damage. The change should be linear, therefore adding a small region on which it can 1 shot units.


@Vipper

One thing is the intention and the other is the result or how it was applied.

In the case of tanks, yes, they have less wipe potential but they gained reliability. This was done not only touching the AoE but scatter values as well. Which is why i didn't bother analysing the values.

On the other hand, the Brummbar which received only changes to AoE, and saw a complete different performance, i've already done the numbers in the past and now i just put it into a graph.

The change is the same, but the effect is different as i mentioned before. It got a heavy wipe nerf but instead it received a major damage increase against infantry to account for that nerf.

The Zis change was just a redistribution of the damage with the removal of been able to 1 shot infantry.

As you said before, it's inline with mortar changes. Mortar changes were a big nerf, healthy, but a nerf.

I don't care what crusade you have between both of you, and i find it perfect to correct people. But i'm still surprise how a 1 line can get you so triggered. You are not discussing against the whole forum, i don't share Katitof opinion or any other. I have my own, so focus on who you are talking with and what point they are discussing.

I just saw that on CoH2DB, the maximum AoE distance is 6, while far AoE distance point is 5.
So everyone KEEP IN MIND that the graph carries a systemic error.

I think the vet damage buff should be just a modifier as you suggested., which gives the barrage 93,36 base damage.



Prepatch ZiS / Postpatch ZiS / SU76 / Su76vet

kill radius for x damage: 1,500 / 0,000 / 0,000 / 0,687
area under plot: 204,87 / 205,02 / 205,02 / 239,26
functional area under plot: 204,87 / 203,28 / 203,28 / 232,59

Correction values for areas:
Should be +10 for Prepatch ZiS and SU76 and +12 for Su76vet. Don't know much about the Prepatch ZiS. If the maximum AoE was 6 as well, then add ~17.


So the vet on Su76 gives it a kill radius of almost 0,7 m which is pretty decent and a AI damage boost of about 14,5%.

On the contrary, you at least opened a discussion about how effective the zis barrage is.

Yep, the damage doesn't drop off just because the far distance is different from the total radius.

As you said before, it's inline with mortar changes. Mortar changes were a big nerf, healthy, but a nerf.

Mortar changes where intended as straight nerf and where actually hit with many different nerfs. There is no doubt about that.
"MORTAR CHANGES
A number of general changes have been applied to a number of light indirect-fire options to reduce their squad wipe potential, improve anti-garrison counterplay, and reduce their range in the late game."

Their damage AOE was not improve in any way, only their damage to garrison was increased.

The change brought the barrage inline as to one shooting but the changes where different since the AOE profile was improved and the reload remains extremely low compared to Mortars. One has around 4.4 sec to react to the barrage before the second shell lands compared to the almost 7 second of the mortar.


...
But i'm still surprise how a 1 line can get you so triggered.
...

I am perfectly calm. In my opinion the change is a redesign that reduces RNG, if you want to think of it as nerf it fine by me.

Speaking of zis barrage, it's a bit too good. Pak TWP got nerfed for a reason. Prenerf TWP allowed u to basically secure a kill on any medium with double pak and a single TWP. Zis barrage is just as dangerous as prenerf TWP as it has lethal accuracy/scatter and can usually wipe a full health support weapon crew in 2 shells (only 1 shell needed vs wounded squads.) As well, zis barrage loads basically instantaneously while there is a significant delay for TWP meaning it's nearly impossible for counterplay for zis barrage.


this x100. zis barrage needs to be removed or arm axis at guns with nukes

Give the ZIS gun TWP, PaK pen and RoF, and it's a deal.

This ability, in a weapon that should be purely anti tank, should not be so lethal.

A good improvement would be to add a delay or animation before the first shot, in order to make it more "readable", similar to the AP ammo load on the HMG.

ZiS-3 is a field gun, not dedicated anti tank gun.
Its as much light artillery as it is anti tank gun and it was used extensively in both its roles, its not relics fantasy, its probably most historical portrayal of usage of unit we have in CoH2.
45mm and 57mm were soviet dedicated ATGs in WW2.

In this post we are discussing about Zis (or maybe SU76), not PG.

I know what Zis3 was in WW2.

Thats why I only suggested to add an animation-like or a delay to the load of the barrage.

this is blatant ally fanboyism. this is a rts GAME, has nthing to do with historical accuracy. the zisgun is the soviet ANTITANK gun, not a arty piece. there is no other AT gun in the game that has the ability to throw out nukes to counter inf while having the ability to anti tank as well. this ability needs to be nerfed.

if we r talking about history, the zis gun should not be able to penetrate the tiger 2 at all frontally and obvs that is not the case here.
