Gold's ruining the game

Draschel:  Incorrect. You mentioned 280 pen. Your argument is invalid. If you meet foes head-on like you should and don't angle out, opening your shoulders as weakspots, 280 is near no threat unless massive high roll. If your cupola weakspots are struck, then its not an issue as even AP would penetrate. Whats the point of the argument.  You play as a green. This is no insult, it is what it is. But you have done so, for perhaps too long. You need to start looking at content at people performing better than green. For then, you can learn more as to improve, because you have clearly peaked. Every single day I tune into people like orzanel or Skill4ltu, and I see them put anything from mediums to heavy to tank destroyers, in superior position to lend them blocking damage, even to this very day 2021. You don't seem to realize, that position is what drives people to success. A great player in bad position still won't have any worthwhile outcome, even if they were firing 395 pen ammo out of a TD. You need position to make both your firepower and defense work. Perhaps I am blind, but I went to re-check, giving you the benefit of the doubt. I used AP not HEAT, to which gets some normalization bonus, the Type 5  140mm AP premium shell. The Front hull is still like 340+  Angle upon which shell strikes measured @53, giving the shell slight advantage over most situations, being slightly above coming down. There are a few reasons as to why this may have happened:-You were hit by a massive pen roll-or you were hit where you didn't think you were hit, AKA the brim just beneath the UFP-hit from long range by slower TD ammunition that arcs in a minor parabola, striking your armor downward (real rare)-or are lying. (real common) AMX54 is one of the tanks that needs armor rework. Same with AMX51, AMX49. Although they have weakspots like the cupolas, the LFP is too strong for most tier 8 AP shells. AKA 225mm pen isn't enough. The armor needs to be dropped to like the TD, AMX Fochs. Reasonable LFP are like Kran or 60TP, not ones that tier 8 need to fire gold at, like Badger or 705A Just because few people complain about HE prior to the changes, doesn't mean it wasn't extremely problematic. How do you not understand this? Dude, stop complaining, and get better. Its not an insult. Its for your piece of mind. Go watch Iyouxin block thousands and thousands in KV4 or VK100 01. They are easily found movies. No one wants to hear you here, cry. Just go seek out getting better. You will be surprised
