Artillery is balanced,fair,hard to play and requires a lot of skill

Ectar:   Ok but OP's point is that arty is easy to play and doesn't need skill (despite the sarcasm).    Playing any heavy or medium atm and using auto aim with premium ammo and consumables is easy mode. Sitting in a bush redline sniping all match in a TD is easy mode.   Neither of the 2 play styles above requires any real skill to achieve.  All you need to do for the medium or heavy auto aiming is to make sure you're not first on a push.   By now, anyone with a good few thousand battles should know where arty will likely be on a map, and where they can shoot. Yet time and time again they still go there and then complain when they're shot. Especially in a match when they're the first tank spotted. I mean ofc arty is going to shoot you. You expect him to think "I have a shot, I'm not going to take it?"   "Without arty there is no camping" - Yet when arty isn't there, people camp hard knowing that there is no threat.
