Thread: State of the ISU-15226 Jun 2020, 09:15 AM Jump back to quoted post26 Jun 2020, 08:24 AMSander93 I think the ISU-152 could do with a rear armor nerf from 155 to 110 (same as Elefant/Jagdtiger) so that it's more vulnerable to flanking Panzer IVs. And then remove the IL-2 bombing run from the commander together with removing the Stuka Dive Bomb from Jaeger Armor. I agree and think it is a good start, then one can adjust. One could also consider removing "mark vehicle". I am glad to see that what I have suggested years ago is considered to be implemented.

Thread: State of the ISU-15225 Jun 2020, 15:30 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2020, 15:09 PMthedarkarmadillo Thanks for the correction, I'll try and commit it to memory. Still very much not cheap. We just had a page of "you can't count on the Brummbärs bunker buster because it's a muni sink" so bringing in an even more expensive ability to highlight the isu AT seems a bit odd. There are few difference: The guy was comparing the barrage ability with auto fire and that is simply misleading. The ISU-152 shot is vet 0 the barrage is vet 1. What I have pointed is that if deflection damage is not enough vs high armor target one has the add option of using the skill shot that has higher penetration. There have been a number of posts describing the AT capability of ISU-152 as bad. I have simply pointed out that with high damage, decent penetration, deflection damage, skill shot and access to mark target describing the AT performance of ISU-152 as bad is simply wrong.

Thread: State of the ISU-15225 Jun 2020, 12:31 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2020, 11:47 AMBlueKnight People don't mention 120 damage after 10s reload because it's not very good performance for a 260FU vehicle. That is guaranteed even at high armor targets and it is hardly the only one gets. Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2020, 12:02 PMKatitof Probably because SU-76, a 70 fuel light vehicle, will do 360 to 420 dmg at the same time wihout mark target. ... That depend on the target and in the target SU-76 would penetrate ISU-152 would do full 240 damage. Ignoring deflection damage is simply misleading. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Cali Armor nerf25 Jun 2020, 11:07 AM Calliope is NOT the lowest range rocket artillery as claimed. Actually it has the second longest range when it comes to rocker arty. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: State of the ISU-15225 Jun 2020, 10:57 AM People keep repeating that ISU-152 can bounce but seem to ignore that even when it bounce it does damage. It actually has one of the highest deflection damage in game. It does 120 damage on deflection up to 162 with "mark vehicle". On top of that it comes with 400/350/300 penetration skill shot.

Thread: Autofire should be removed25 Jun 2020, 07:45 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2020, 00:02 AMthedarkarmadillo Until the move slightly and are no longer in the barrage until the enemy player retargets them instead of the mortar doing that itself. There's no way that " the enemy has to micro to dig you out" is worse than " the enemy has a mortar in range but is building barbed wire in their base and that's taking all their attention but you are still forced out of cover and the player doesn't even realize it because the game is playing itself" Same issue that was with the mortar pit, smaller scale. I would argue that the nail in the coffin of grenadier was the nerf to mortars. So imo nerfing even more would make Ostheer static play even worse and it would promote blob with brutal force. Jump back to quoted post25 Jun 2020, 05:00 AMKiwiBirb No one builds mortars in 1v1 - 2v2 competitive play, even the “superior” Wher version. I think mortars should need more micro, but also deal more damage. My proposal for accomplishing these changes would be by by nerfing autofire damage and range, and by buffing barrage rate of fire I also think the mortar and LeiG should be switched in OKW and Wher’s loadout The LeiG is better than the mortar (which would fit Ost’s theme) and the LeiG was used most early war while mortars were used more late war. Think leig and mortar swap would be a good change. Mortar fits the aggressive okw style better. In: COH2 Balance
