Seriously go play tier VII today. Always one or two E25 in the queue. And yes it is op:

- It scout better than others TVII scout (far better camo and speed)
- It damage far better than TVII scouts (60 ammo drum. M41 can get the door it is far behind.) WHILE staying hided!
- Preferential MM.

I won’t get this OP tank even if my friends sent it has a Xmas gift. I have SU-122-44 and even if it is strong the non preferential MM make all the difference. (and the size/camo, and the poor view range, etc.)

Make the E25 meet TIX and the problem is fixed. =)

There is no penning a properly angled Tiger 2. On any map, I can find a position in which I am immune to even 230 pen guns. With 150 pen (You say you can do it with AP rounds only), you can’t pen the lower plate angled (even though this is way old, the lower glacis remains unchanged iirc http://wotguru.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/TigerII_Angled.jpg ). But when I hide my lower plate, you can’t pen my turret face, and you’re too low to hit the turret roof.

I just wonder how the hell you can avoid engage heavies up front these nowadays corridor maps?

Engage Tiger II up front yeah sure. When it is so close that reliable hit its “huge” weak spots Tiger see you and it is end of story.

E25 is good but not in near op. I even think that SU-122-44 is better.

Just leave him Tullus, the arguments he gives are idiotic without any logic whatsoever. He just defends WG without even trying to understand the meaning of other people posts, but thats what WG lowlife employees are for

Okay WG…so you’re removing the E-25 because it’s imbalanced…of course, because the SU-122-44 is TOTALLY balanced, right guys?

You’re lucky it doesn’t have the historically planned ROF, which was 40 RPM.
The gun had the same loading system planned for the Panther, which would be rather nasty in WOT.

I agree with Daemonik’s points.

And remember – if WG wasn’t this “greedy” business, like you say, you wouldn’t be able to play WoT at all. Yes, they could’ve used some other business model (like Minecraft, for example), but there’s no way to tell how successful it’d be.

“SU 76i says hi.
In that case they could remove it immediately. In this case they cannot ?
It’s just … you know… strange and silly at the same time…”

(I can’t seem to reply lower)

SU-76i was freshly put out, was way cheaper (if they announced it, more people would buy it than E-25) and they caught it early enough to be able to do that. One week later and it would cause the same issue, if not bigger.

good question – is this a way to get the E 25 for -30% and some gold @ -30% too?

you forgot the fact about e25 platoons keeping people perma-tracked? Also, the tiger 2 and t32 have quite some weekspots which the e25 will use (cupola’s, lower glacis)
