if they moved the Maus down to tier 9 WG could give it a different spread so tier 7s wouldn’t ever see it, like restrict the Maus to battletier 10-12 or 11-12 even.

Agreed. And ROF of 4.5 or even 5 would do it well especially with the Maus II turret. It doesn’t need the 15cm.

Why giving Maus same gun as E100 and lose the uniqueness. Instead of buff Maus’ RoF and it can be quite nice tank. Like this it has gun with badish penetration for a t10 tank and RoF is horrible. It needs more firepower to actually defend itself against gold spammers.

That was a insightful answer. Now go back to wallow in your indoctrinated truth from Pravda and RIA Novosti.

I feel like the best route to go if they were to consider an upgrade for the Maus would be to allow the vehicle to obtain the flamethrowers that were on the full-scale model presented to Hitler (but Hitler turned down, and thus are not on the prototype yet the welds covering up the would-be flamethrower turret attachment points are), if flamethrower tanks and multi-turret support ever get into the game. It could even come with a drawback if needed: the flamethrowers would require the massive fuel drum to be installed on the back, which could be a more thinly-armored fire hazard for the vehicle itself! The advantage, obviously, would be that the Maus can take care of side-huggers for good.

ah… the old memories of ammo racking a T30 with tier 6 KV-3

This…
I will have to spam gold on the Maus in my Comet to possibly penetrate it and do any damage.

The turret thingy isn’t a problem, any competent E-100/Maus driver angles his turret when he’s not shooting.
Even gold shells have problems penetrating an E-100 angled turret.

Or just the same penetration as the 12.8cm L55.
