It's slower than a medium tanks turret speed and slightly faster than the heaviest tanks turret traverse speed. This is probably because it occupies a space in between heavy and medium tank due it's unique nature of high cost and armor.
It gets 40% turret rotation at vet 2 to compensate for that, compared to the 35% most tanks get. The IS2 also get's 50% more turret rotation at vet 2 giving it almost exactly the same traverse speed as the Panther.
I don't know why your knit picking this, because the reason why the Fire Fly beats a Panther 1 for 1 is they cost the same and the Fire Fly is a dedicated TD while the Panther is a tank hunter.
Are you mad?
Mediums traverse is 35.
Panther's is 33.
Heavies is 19.
So how Panther is "slightly" faster than heavies and slower than mediums?
Vet 2 IS2 has almost same traverse like Panther?
Explain me, how 28 of IS is almost the same as 46 of Panther. I'm listening.
Without vet it's faster almost twice than all heavies (19 vs 33).
It's faster than Wolverine's.
It's slower than medium only by 2 but with vet it has almost the fastest traverse in game.
So, explain me, how Panther's turret is slow cause I cannot see this.
Panther can circle FF without any problems. FF turret is worse than Tiger's I belive or similar at most.
