Panther D turret speed needs buff

[Alukat]

since you've moved all the other panthers to BR 6.0, the Panther D is only option to have panther in line up and being able to play BR 5.7

Panther D's aced 6°/sec turret rotation speed is just pathetically low and needs to be buffed to at least 12°/sec

[LordBUM]

it may be slow but its pretty accurate to how it was so don't expect it to change any time soon if at all.
besides its not that bad of an issue if you don't go into a face to face brawl just keep your distance and you'll be fine.

So your suggestion for that medium tank is to stay behind the tank destroyers and do only long distance sniping... well, that's what the waffenträger is there for.
In the current state the Panther D is just absolutely useless and germany has neither LT nor MT for BR 5.7

historically accurate, so it wont change

Then they should move one of the other panthers back down to BR 5.7

If there would be historical accuracy german tanks wouldn't always face the stuff that was build to counter them

buff it finally. germany needs a viable medium tank for BR 5.7.

if you regularly need a faster traverse rate you're playing it wrong

ofc it needs faster traverse rate, it's not like we fight over 2km xD

[Mephisto]

no we (are forced to) fight on maps and in places unsuited for tank combat (without infantry support) and instead of going for the source/root of the problem (i.e. bad map-design) you ask for changes to vehicles

The panther D with it's very low turret traverse needs very large maps. However, very large maps where it's 1-2km sniping the whole time aren't that much fun....

if you complain about turret speed, that's a serious skill issue, if you can't handle that, you must throw a fit every time you play SPG's.

SPG (Waffenträger, 14°/s) and Tiger (12°/s) have double+ the turret traverse speed of what the panther has lol
Do me a favour, go troll someone else.

In the current the state the panther D is just a useless piece of ♥♥♥♥.

The main strategy of every tank is always to never be shot at. Just because you have armor, they doesn’t mean you should be up front taking hits with it.

The Panther D is fine as is. Bump your BR up if you want a more capable Panther tank. Panthers have been undertiered for years already.

the turret traverse speed being so slow that it can't keep up with moving enemies is the issue.

The Panther D sucks at both, taking hits and trying to shoot enemies.
