British tank get slaughtered in BR 6.3
Seriously, this BR became the worst BR in british tank, now british tank user instead forced to use:
1. Challenger (Worst Turret Armor, Slow Reverse, Weak Front armor)
2. Comet (Worst Front armor, slow reverse)
3. Centu 1 (Worst Turret Armor, Lackt Penetration against 6.3 tank),
4. Charioteer (same problem as challenger)
vs all nation which have 6.3 tank (IS-2, TIGER 2, ST-A1, M26) which have better armor, better shell, better survivability, better speed, but now Brits dont have 6.3 tank and get slaughtered ..anyone know best tank in british line for 6.3 BR?? its make british player frustrated more..

Well first of all,

The centurain and challenger are 5.7 tanks. But even against 6.3 tanks they have plenty of pen with sabot to knock out whatever they want.

The comet is a 5.3 tank that also gets very good pen for its BR and also has no problem penning whatever it wants in 6.3. Hell, it has the same pen as the IS2 and more pen than the M26.

The charioteer is the only 6.3 tanks in that lineup. And personally i dont find it to be avery good tnak either, mostly due to the low ammo supply while the pen is still very good.

Conclusion, pull the charioteer from your lineup. Youll see less and less 6.3 but even when you do see them, youll still have tanks with great pen and reload that will have no problem competing even at 6.7

Also, just forget about 6.3 for the brits. They have 1 tank sitting at 6.3 and its not even that useful. Just grind using the 5.7 lineup until you get the cent 3 and suffer through that until you get sabot. If yoyu like just derping stuff, the FV4005 is a good time.

Thanks for the answer but mostly mine line up is facing against 6.3 tank is always have trouble penning, first shot fail then enemy just One shot me, what im talk is 6.3 British line up is non existant in term of survivability against 6.3 tank from other nation..i knew brits have sabot, but what if first shot is fail to penetrate? if u use IS-2, TIGER 2, you just angling them and reverse it, it have better armor than the rest of brits tank facing in BR 5.7-6.3. But, it's different with british tank even when angling it still one shoted by another tank in 5.7-6.3 line...

Clearly a l2p issue. If you are not shure that you get the desired one shot kill disable his gun breech, so he can't shoot back and finish him off with a follow up shot.

U are using apds so just snipe. Whats the problem?
The mass slaughter dosen't just end in 6.3... 6.7 is like a concentration camp if your uptiered, where your constantly facing T 54s and Leos, though leos are easy to kill tbh, it's the russian T 54s, IS family especially the IS 4s and IS 6 that gets ya the most... :P

I disagree, the T-54's can still be easily shot through their sloped armor(which can result in a 1 shot kill) and gun mantlet with the APDS shells. IS-6's can be shot through their Gun Mantlet and trigger the ammo racks or disable their gunner and cannon. Not sure about IS-4M's but you should be letting the 7.7's in your uptier deal with 'em, you can help by tracking them or disabling their gun. Side shots of course will always penetrate and kill them if you aim good enough.

Well, uptier is bad for everyone. With the Tiger is the worst one if you look at the vehicle winning rate.

Comet shell penetration more than M26? You made me laugh.

No one uses the APCR on the M26 for a reason.

The 90mm APCR is just bad, so you really can't count that. Add on top that the COmet is using a 77mm gun and is at 5.3 when the M26 has a 90mm gun and sits at 6.3, the 30mm on the AP and the 10mm on the APHE (which is what the M26 uses the most) is not a big difference (especially considering the Comet gets Sabot).

Comet uses 77m M26 uses 90mm.
M26s 90mm cannon with its APCBC can penetrate 164mm on blank range.
While Comets APCBC penetrates 152mm on blank range.
APCR gives you fighting chance aganist Tiger 2s,what are you on about?

It's a difference.M26 can deal most of the targets on it's BR.Same as Comet,but M26 can do it better.

True, but the APCR is most likely just a backup and not loaded into the breech, because of the terrible post pen dammage, while almost every comet use the apds with 205mm of pen.
In the comet there is no need to change ammo + the reload of the 90 mm on the M26 is way inferiour.
So if you meet a M26, he has most likely the AP with 189mm pen vs the Comet with 205mm pen.
