SPG Rebalance: Changing the Stun Parameters

Some questions.   Question 1: How will you ensure it remains satisfying to play SPG?    Question 2: Will you increase other statistics on the SPG to make it more effective now that we lost splash radius and stun time? for instance reload time or damage?   Question 3: Will you award more xp for less damage done? (that you caused by your nerf)   Question 4: What about giving xp to the arty when a stunned tank is hit by teammates? The same way destroyed tracks work?   Additional note:   Arty players want to feel relevant as a support class. To have a birds eye view on the battlefield and feel like they help the team win.  At the same time we want that satisfying feeling of really hurting an opposing tank.. that bullseye moment.Yes!!   Arty is frustrating enough to play at times... the incoming nerfs will lower our enjoyment inside the game. Keep this in mind when balancing around arty. Please those that get frustrated getting hit by arty and at the same time please the arty... Because right now it seems your only tackling the frustrations of those getting hit.. What about us arty players?? throw us a bone...   How did we get in this whole situation?   Before all the arty nefs happened in the first place, there was no stun mechanic. Arty shot a big hurting shell once a minute and those that shot a bit faster did less damage. Arty back then was also half as accurate. The problem was AP shells. instead of nerfing arty to oblivion they should have kept the old system, removed AP and made the splash radius bigger. That way tanks only got hit once a minute, less often due to accuracy and for less damage.
