I would like to comment about the current state of ÖKW's Elite Armor:
- As you wrote in the patchnotes, the community is divided about Vehicle detection. Let me just say that i would like to see this ability replaced but not because it's not useful. It is.
But right now 4 of 5 commander slots are based on munition which is just to much.
Next problem: 4 of 5 abilities can only used in the later stage of the game when you have access to OKW's expensive tanks. Compar
Considering that the Sturmtiger can't one-shot allied mediums anymore (at least not in my tests) Elite Armor should give you a more powerfull ability in the O-4 CP area then vehicle detection.
Signal relay:
- 50 muni cost
-20 sec active
-25 sec cd
- has a voiceline when you activate it.
About the point it has alot of muni ability in elite armor doc:
- repair cost 40 muni
- heat muni cost 45 muni
- Coordiante barrage from the officer cost 80 muni
So as you can see yes alot of abiltily, but they are all cheap. Its not like abitltiy with 180-200 muni cost.
About useful, before you get expensive tanks:
- You can see where the LV are repairing and then go sneaky with cloaked raktenwerfer to it
- You can see where the ambulance from usa is. This is an important information. Esp, when you go for walking stuka.
- Later ofc for the Sturmtiger and info for your team in teamgames.
So you can go for example mech: get a walking stuka and puma with heat muni into sturmtiger.
But i agree maybe this doc right now is for more teamgames and not 1vs1 main.
Tho it still could work in 1vs1 too.
