Which 8.3 tank can kill Maus?

[Suthirak_D42]

I play this 8.0+ and see many players still stuck at enemy Maus. Don't they get better shells that can pen Maus front? Why does it still be a treat in this tier?

the list of tanks at 8.3 that can't pen the maus would be much smaller

At this stage of the game. Even lower tier tanks can kill the maus. You have low end tanks running around with HEATFS with 3-400mm of pen. You have the IS Sherman with a 8.0 french gun with a 3-400mm penning HEAT shell at 6.0 which is laughably undertiered. You also have the walkerbulldog, T92, scorpian, and all others.

Anything and everything at 8.3 can kill the Maus. People struggling to do so, is usually result of not having good ammo, bad RNG, or they don't know where to aim properly.

Everything. My 6.7 tanks can penetrate it.

People are just dumb and aim for the front plate instead of the turret cheeks.

[Zielscheibe]

There are even some 1.7 tanks/TD's capable of killing the maus. So yeah 8.3 everything can kill the Maus.

Maus is quite a threat in the right hands 400mm heat cant pen it if you keep a good angle on both the hull and turret. Turning the turret(and hull for added speed) only after they make their shot usually does the trick though experienced players with good trigger discipline may call your bluff and wait you out.

.... if they are trying to bait you with an angled turret shoot the barrel. if they are doing a track turn shoot the opposite side track and bounce into cover and flank or wait for some one else to get their attention. Or just shoot the turret cheek with almost any tank down to 6.3 as the window to land a kill shot or disabling shot is big enough a good player should have no problem.

This game was far more fun when heavy tanks didn't need to be easy to kill from the front.

With the buff to barrel durability a shot to it while angled and moving the gun elevation usually means its still functional though its a gamble. Not saying the maus is a great vehicle but people usually dont make the most out of it eg overextending in tight spaces rather then pushing/controlling key sight lines with teammates to stop flankers

The Leopard 1 will easily kill the Maus without trying BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT the leopard isn't the monster in the lobbie so it most likely would win against the Leo 1.

You can just overpressure it with HE at BR 4 or whatever.
