Really happy to see Steve getting recognised. A wonderful person and a very good player who makes informative and entertaining content too. Love that you shout out the other good ones from time to time, Skill. You're a star :)
The one-and-only Steven 90 was the legend that makes me start playing lights regularly. That memecap on old Ruinberg was the most ridiculous gameplay I've ever seen in the history of WoT.
_"He is not feeling happy, I can tell you that. In fact, he is feeling dead."_ laughed my ass off at that, you weren't even trying to be funny I am sure.
Thanks Skill, this is my all-time favorite T6 TD! About the Airfield game; I usually start at i4 right on top of that little peak, perfect spot for shooting enemy beach party goers. Mannerheim from that spawn I usually start trying to spot from the G6 plateau with the bush. About the M44 that got you; my primary equipment loadout has a Turbo; not so much for forward speed increase, but moreso for sake of the reverse speed, which is often overlooked but essential. About the Jagdpanzer IV's weakness though: I wish WG would buff the hitpoints for the engine module, which is a pathetic 86 hitpoints. Plus, I think they should drop that useless Call for Vengeance perk and instead create a skill that does the same for a damaged engine as the Armorer skill does for a damaged gun module. But sigh.... knowing WG that will not happen.....
When I played this td about 11 years ago it was a nightmare. 1. The top gun was 88/56 This meant standard pen was 145mm for 220 damage or 75/70 with standard pen 150mm for 135 damage. 2. "Gold" ammo really cost gold. This meant most people didn't spend gold on low tiers. 3. There were few lightly armored tanks at high tiers. 4. Tier 6 td saw up to tier 9. 5. This was prior to the HP buffs. But also prior to the E75 damage buffs. Imagine the fun a facing E75's with 145-150 pen. The standard answer was "flank the E75". Trying to "flank" an E75 with a lightly armored, sluggish, non-turreted td while trying to dodge other enemy tanks. The E75 only had 1 weak point into the front that this td could pen with luck; the machine gun port. The E75 could bounce shots to its side hull and turret if they were angled to the jg pz 4. The jg pz 4 could even bounce shots to E75 rear. With 88mm gun it took an average of 9 penetrating shots to kill an E75 or about 14 with the 75mm gun. Meanwhile the E75 had a chance of 1 shoting the jg pz 4. Many people just spammed HE with it because back then HE was much more effective than now. You would commonly face T29, T32,M103, Tiger 2, E75, IS3, IS4 (it was tier 9 which lead to IS7 back then), Ferdinand, JG Tiger, T28, T95 as examples. Plus "arty party" was a thing back then. No limits on numbers of arty they could 1 shot tanks. It was very common to have 6+ arty per side. Tier 9 td, medium, and arty was end of their lines. This means T92 was tier 9 back then. T92 could miss you by several meters and still splash kill the jg pz 4 with ease. About the only thing worse to play was the French light amx40 "duck". Tier 4 light tanks also saw tier 9. That thing took minutes to "sui-scout"
Day 4... no wait today is the day of the Flatpanzer IV video... and it's also 37 minutes long. Thank you very much Skill. I've been struggling with the low shell velocity on longer distances and sometimes with the low gun depression when I'm closer to the enemy and can't just drive up to the top of the hill without getting shot at. So seeing you using this in action was very nice.
JgPz IV was once the worst TD at tier 6. Its stock gun was extremely bad, but you had to spend a lot of exp to unlock the track and the top gun. And to fire gold ammo, you would have to fire actual gold. Even with the top gun, you would have tremendous problems dealing with same tier tanks like M4A3E2's frontal armor. This was the era of +/- 4 and +/- 3 MM, so it really could not do much at all in battle. With the introduction of the credit for gold ammo, overnight this TD went from the worst tier 6 TD to one of the best. With gold ammo, you could actually do something in battle rather than just being a spotter. It had the best camo of all tanks in the game (along with Stug) at the time. It got nerfed a bit when TD's camo after firing got nerfed. However, if you know how to play this TD, it is still a very very fun one. A keeper for sure.
I notice that the equipment you are using in the video is not listed in the Index page. I noticed this for a few tanks. Maybe something to check and correct eventually, unless there is a reason for the difference? Jg.Pz IV is an old lover of mine that I'm rediscovering, I first started down this german TD line. Great gaming experience now that I'm not a newbie anymore. Now I'm trying to 2 mark the tank, if I manage it will be my 1st 2 mark (step by step, little by little).
thanks for the crew meds updates Skieel!! i'm grinding czech line atm and i have been saving xp and books to use with your guidance!! one more thing, i noticed you don't have ever featured the Škoda T 24 tier 5... pretty please with sugar on top and big wet kisses???
nice one Skill! no one can be perfect every time - the push in 3rd battle was a bit of suicidal from start with the 2 snipers on the hill. in the 4th the arty was harassing like most times in lower tiers, the reload of the arty in this tiers is just to fast. Pleas do video on Skoda T40, little brother of defender killer
This is my 2nd 3 mark in the game and I must say this tank is a beast for me. Surprisingly it only took 40 games to go from 77-95 which is quite a low amount for me. I only used 10 gold rounds total in the whole 40 battles and half of those were spent on a Black Prince. Overall this tank is quite amazing. I was surprised how often I got top xp in this tank, even in a lot of the tier 8 battles. Camo crew is definitely great for this tank with binoculars. Would recommend to play this tank for sure.
I second your appreciation of Steve's dedication to sneaky interesting plays. Great and entertaining content that i would REALLY enjoy you to collaborate with! lots of love and BANANAS xx
About BLIND SHOTS in this Game: I played a Tier9 frensh Arty yesterday (I make Missions for Obj 260) and i BOUNCED a T30 (TD!) FRONTALY with my lower Plate and (now FUNFACT) a SECOND Time with my Canon.... he fired 2x BLIND and I should have been dead but it seams an Arty has ENOUGH AMOR to simply BOUNCE a T30 AP Shell.... I wonder what all the Heavies always do wrong *sacasm*. As long as such Stuff is possible: Nothing suprises me in WoT....
Hi Skiiilll, could you please play with the tier 7 tank russian tank destroyer, su-101? Ive played with it recently and absolutely afored it, would love to see you play with it
This is the best TD for TD 8 mission for obj.260 in my opinion... At least i was doing that mission with it even knowing i had the E 25 back then... 🙄 I loved playing with it... And it will be one of the first tanks i will gonna 3 mark... When i will finish my first goal that is to get all ''Ace Tanker'' badges on all tanks i have need to ace 150+ tanks so far aced only 379 but i started to hunt the ace badges less than 1 year back. So if all ok at the end of this year i will start hunting the 3 MoE's 🤪 P.S. yes i think it's the best gem from the jag pzdy E100 TT in my opinion... JPanther 2nd and Jagdtiger 3rd place... hmmm To be fair i liked all tanks of that line except the ''almighty'' Jg.Pz. E100...🙄 Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeve Yeah he is great content creator. 😊👍 lol that arty cammo at the end 😂
Used to hate this tank, so many years ago when I played it, considered it a flat downgrade from the glorious Stug III... But after they buffed the short 88 (L/56), I started loving it. IMO the 75mm L/70 just doesn't work with this tank. Oh and btw, pretty much any shot to the lower plate insta-kills the engine...
The engine problem is real... you get a red engine almost instantly if someone just looks at your Jagdpanzer. The 8,8 L/56 buff was half-assed, WoT is still using too low penetration values for the historical german guns. (For reference : they fixed the 7,5 L/48 on the VK 28.01 which was buffed from 110 to 132).
Really happy to see Steve getting recognised. A wonderful person and a very good player who makes informative and entertaining content too. Love that you shout out the other good ones from time to time, Skill. You're a star :)
Steve is a class act, very smart and an utter goofball. We need a platoon session, eh? :-)

Extra daily dose of skill on the main channel? Interesting...
haha i didnt even realise it
I was checking my subscriptions, lol
We will pretend it never happened
Props for shouting out Steve, he's a really nice guy with cool content! I'd love to see a platoon session with you two:))
Sees notification. Eats dinner. Click skill4lut extra....
No video??
Aaah, uploaded on the main paradise!!! Oh well
you could make a showcase "series" of best positions on all the maps for all the different classes.
This ^^
_"He is not feeling happy, I can tell you that. In fact, he is feeling dead."_ laughed my ass off at that, you weren't even trying to be funny I am sure.
I remember when I got this tank everyone told me if was terrible after the hetzer but I ended up doing so good in it hahah
Well, it kind of is if you want to go the free to play route.
And to think I 3 marked this beauty today! Rate of fire made the tank for me, I play it rather aggressively but I have made my stupid plays work.

Enemy team in the first battle: "We are getting capped, should we move? Nah..."
I love playing with triangles
Think this was not supposed to be at this channel xD
I agree
a tier 6 tank that has tier 8 dpm deserves to be here /s
Who craes?:)
Shout out to Steve (and friends) at HonestGaming - some very informative and highly entertaining videos
Skill you uploaded this on the wrong channel
Who cares?:)
Just enjoy gameplay....face slap.
Scintillating gameplay. Riveting! I was nailed behind the screen. I barely have fingers left, and no nails to be seen!

TD: 9

Back in the day the AP pen for the short 88mm was 132...

Thanks for the Index Page, skill. Ir's become a favorite of our clan to learn to use our vehicles better. Thx!
@skill4ltu could u do a video about bourasque or tvp 50/51? Id like to see u play those tanks
Flat Panzer isn’t a Pushing Panzer. The moment I go aggressive with mine, I’m dead in 30 seconds.
skillllll ;) in your web page u have t50-2 with vertical stabilizer can't find this option in the game (or i don't know something) regards pink baboon
Poor fellas waiting extra dose of skill in extra channel
thanks for the crew meds updates Skieel!! i'm grinding czech line atm and i have been saving xp and books to use with your guidance!!
one more thing, i noticed you don't have ever featured the Škoda T 24 tier 5... pretty please with sugar on top and big wet kisses???
Skieeeel, what the hell, it seems like every single video you get one of the games on prokhorovka. How you do this?
Remember Donkey (3rd game) you need to be patient in a TD.
bravo Baboon! I never saw high damage like this with this tank!
nice one Skill! no one can be perfect every time - the push in 3rd battle was a bit of suicidal from start with the 2 snipers on the hill. in the 4th the arty was harassing like most times in lower tiers, the reload of the arty in this tiers is just to fast.
Pleas do video on Skoda T40, little brother of defender killer
Skill is at the same stage in the marathon as I am in this video.
I better get cracking
I want to finish this marathon before he does!
Jokes on you! Im not doing marathon on eu server
Extra dose of skill + main dose of skill ou
I would donate an organ to see Skill and Steve from Honest Gaming team up.
VI tier on tje main channel?
Thanks again for the channel and this content. I honestly think the mid tiers are better balanced than higher tiers.

I like it a lot, but that's the only tank for me in the game, where the radio range needs to be reminded with the crew abilities.
Nice vid skeeeell
Maybe in next video su-100m1 russia tier 7 tank destroyer?
Skill you posted the on the wrong channel!!! I checked the extra and was wondering why there was no video today 🤣🤣🤣
Mannerheim line is map from finland :-)

If someone uses the 7.5 mm from the Stug 3 top gun it will be like a tier 6 E 25
