you said it yourself, im ignorant. thats why im eagerly waiting for your pro tips. apparently flanking elefants is the wrong way to do it. indirect fire (which even relic suggests) is the wrong way to do it. exploiting its horrible targeting priorities and rotation speed is also wrong. lets hear your suggestions.
Yes, Relic suggested it in one of their streams, but how do you use indirect fire by howitzers, if in the same doctrine that has an elephant, you also have recon and bombing strike? Thats like 240 munitions to 100% kill 600MP and avoid it doing damage to you, easy choice. Or even only 160 munitions, if you get vision in a different way.
Whatever, i dont have issues with the elephant itself, just the scope on it. Especially in teamgames, where your mate can exploit the extra sight for his incendary strikes with mortar half tracks, for example.
