Tiger II - A massive dissapointment.

[FierceTomato]

Don't waste your time with the King Tiger.


The armor is useless, and the gun is ♥♥♥♥.

Just got your new King Tiger? Guess what. Get ready to get penned from your turret mantlet by light US cold war era tanks. Get ready to bounce 80% of your shells at anything you shoot at.

Want to snipe? TOO BAD! 9/10 times you get a city map! Have fun!

[ArnNied]

Hi.

I actually own the premium Tiger 2 and also the normal Tiger 1. Both are a hell of a lot of fun to play.

To me it appears you might have a bad preset, maybe a higher rated tank in your deck, which forces your Tiger 2 in to matches that are simply not made for it ?

Just a guess!

Good day to you.

I was thinking about getting the Tiger II Sla.16 to grind german line. Don't know if its really worth it now though.

Well, to be fair, the Tiger II (P) getting penetrated through the turret front is certainly a thing. (I currently play at most BR 6.0 ground and shoot Tiger IIs there plenty.) And even the (H) turret front is penetrated by decent APCR and APDS shells, and seems to be the best aimpoint if you can't get around the side.

Of course, it's not a great aimpoint, it's just the only part of the front that's halfway feasible for lower-BR tanks to attack.

[captain gimmick]

Is this bait? Tiger 2 is flat out the best tank at its br.

Well....this guy has some points. Like the fact that your mantlet gets penned by cold war tanks with Sabot rounds. And some maps are city maps which forces the king tiger to engage in close quarters which T29/34s, IS-6 and Centurian tanks love. And i am sorry to disagree with you Rui about the king tiger being king of 6.7. I believe the american heavies have that title now, and this is coming from a decent king tiger driver having a 2:1 k/d ratio. Its a fun tank, but there are tanks out there that can take on KT's with ease. I enjoy it more when im facing its historical enemies and not post war/ "theory" prototype tanks. But hey, its up to you.

No, no it's not. Not anymore.

Specify what type of tiger 2 you are driving. I assume you drive the porsche turret Tiger 2, which, quite frankly is ♥♥♥♥. Yes, the turret is streamlined, but at 6.3, 100mm of turret armor wont save you. 76 shermans will reliably penetrate you in the turret. Panthers will. Tiger 1s will, in fact, most tanks that have at least 120mm of pen can pen the tiger 2 P's turret well.

The Tiger 2 H is much better in terms of not dying instantly because your turret was penned instantly. Its still slow and sluggish, but the turret is better armored, but a lot of things will still pen it, but if you angle it and wiggle it enough, it will be hard to pen.

In the previous version, King Tiger is f**kin usefull, my kd of TigerII H and sla is 4+. And then the A-hole Rus Game Maker added IS-6 and T34(US) to the game but just added one ru251. What an ALLIES game! Gaijin, f**k you and well done! This game is really balance in 6.7 LOLLOLLOLLOL. F**k Gaijin, GO SUCK STALIN‘S ♥♥♥♥!

So you want the king tiger to be as impenetrable as IS 6? hahaha!

Fun tip: if you "shake" your turret left and right you can abuse the pen mechanics

You can't pen a T32/T29 with a long 88?
Jesus, time for the previous King of 6.7 to learn to aim now. You can just abuse your tiny turret weakspot by wiggling it.
