Can not see how this slow and expensive thing that can get outspottet by Su 85 and Firefly would be usefull on any map that is not litterd with chokepoints. It can not even 2 Hit Kill T34s anymore. Best part is when it misses and has to reload 9 seconds just to miss again ...

Also see it literally never being built in 3v3 as allies (Rank 14). Does anyone use this thing wihtout throwing their game?

Kind of understand that it can be outspotted vs SU85, but FF?? Are you leaving it on the frontline without any support? What about supporting units with a scope upgrade or vetted 222?

Sounds like you just need to adapt to not being able to self spot with Scopes anymore. That's literally the only thing that has changed with Elephant recently (2 hitting mediums was several patches ago).

So, uh, use spotting units and don't pretend the Elephant is a 1 man army.

You literally get every single ability for recon / upgrade: spotting scopes / reconaisance flight in one commander that literally buffs the elephant in usage to the damn ceiling they literally throw you ever single ability for overall reconaisance in your hands.

Meanwhile complains about a SU 85 that is outspotting him , just cringe.

people should read my second post in this thread. This post was basically just a small rant that I had after having a match where I constantly had my Elephant miss. This is also why it isn't in balance section as a "Pls buff ele" post ...

Elephant is useless in almost every other situation but 3v3 and 4v4 modes. 2v2 some maps it's decent to have where the fighting is more corridor, but it eats so much pop cap and is almost useless when most of the time you need more AI out of your vehicles where Elefant isn't ISU152 wonder weapon.
