Hehe. I know what you mean :) it is actually pretty easy against German vehicles as they have weak decks. But with Russian and American tanks you have to aim specifically for weak spots. Shooting underneath IS-6 is a really good tactic I found :)
If you good enough you can take on modern tanks with this. I use 3OF26 (125mm russian cannons). And i got a Leo2A4,M1 abrams,Leo 2K knocked out with HE rounds
I remember when this thing was a true monster with it's APBC shell that was even able to pen a IS-6 UFP. That only lasted like three weeks since Gaijin was too busy selling their brand new premium at the time.
@@tankonaut Yes, shortly after they introduced the update with the De Mar formula change for penetration characteristics based on how much explosives are inside, diameter, weight and velocity. Despite the APBC shell having identical stats to the APCBC it was nerfed in penetration when it should have basically the same penetration but with the angled bonus of APBC.
I’ve killed like one or two of these in my Tiger 2 H Sla.16. They’re not hard once you know their weak spots. (I’ve also killed a T95 with my Tiger 2 H sla.16). Nice vid!
One thing I hate though is the turret gets that volumetric moments. Those big ass gunner sights have fucked me over so many times whenever I see these in my tiger 2
Yes, obviously the long reload makes this a bit stickier however 100% agree. The armor and mobility of this beast make it much more of a threat than other derp guns.
Damn I didnt know it had that much pen, I wish the IS-6 had an HE shell that big but I guess you can only have so much bias in 1 tank lol. 30 seconds sounds a lot for a reload tho damn
Hey, yes its pretty decent but you're right the reload keeps it balanced. I think the real power of this tank is the combo of the great HE round AND the decent armor profile. Makes it a lot more flexible that other derps. I am doing a video soon on the 2S3M at 6.3 for USSR. That thing is another awesome HE slinger with 62mm of pen - which is just devastating!
Use what works for you :) However, they actually just buffed the m107 HE round in the last patch so it now has insane amount of TNT and even more pen (61mm from 52) - its one of the fastest high caliber HE rounds in the game and I actually find it more reliable that the aphe which only has 199mm pen.
I want the T30 so bad😭. I’ve been wasting my silver lions in the snowman loot boxes for days now and I haven’t even a vehicle. I hope the snail will give it to me eventually.
I feel you bro. There are event tanks I would also love to get and know I will never have them :/ I don't want to be that guy as you know it yourself, but the chances of you getting it are so small. Fingers crossed they bring it back properly in the future!
Yes, I read that a few prototypes were made? In game it's a heap of fun to play. I think the combination of derp gun and armor makes it kind of unique :)
I fear no tank. . . But this one earn my respect, some time i mistake it by it brother the t 29, and I get confused by the one shot kill, never the less I get satisfaction when I shot trap trough the frontal plate turret hitting exactly on the Scopes
my problem is a like running and gunning or ambush tactics which the ambush would be good for the t30 but I prefer the shorter reloads for those "oh shit" situations 😅
How to kill t series tanks (as a german main): aim for the turret sides, (doesnt matter if the enemy t series is head on). The ready ammo rack is always there If all else fails, shoot the barrel and rush for the side (make sure to break tracks if necesarry)
Hey Lenard. Sure, that's an interesting vehicle suggestion. I do have it, just haven't played it in a while. I remember grinding that one was tough! :)
@@carlosmayhem7608 it’s because of Sony. Gaijin can’t put the marketplace on consoles so they just hid event vehicles from the tech tree of console players.
That’s the power of derp guns like the T-30, there’s almost nothing you can do to stop them if you can’t get into cover. If they know where to shoot they will one shot you. Either moving into cover or shooting the barrel would prevent them killing you. Also they have a LONG reload so if they mess up their shot they are normally an easy kill.
From the front if your gun has 220mm+ which a lot of tanks at this BR has, you can pen the front of the turrets mantlet(either side) and this applies to the other T series heavy tanks too.
HE goes bigga boom! ;) IMHO - It's fun using HE and in many instances superior for this tank IMHO - as long as you shoot accurately, you can kill anything it faces with one shot of the HE and don't have to worry about bounces etc.
It's only in the marketplace now :/ However there are big gun, derp vehicles in the tech-tree for free! I will do vids on them soon. Check out the 2S3M in the USSR tree and the Object 268 :)
Good idea! Yep, definitely the KV-2. I also forgot the G6 (Britain) the Bkan 1C ( Sweden) there are quite a few in the tech tree that are really fun :)
Me, who just unlocked the Tiger II and didn't even get to the battlefield, but got annihilated by some goofy T30 hiding in a narrow place with 30 HE ammo: 🥲
@@tankonaut true, like i met with only one so far (i'm in that tier for a long time) and even that one was when i bombed the enemy and randomly killed one
Rare my ass with three variants roaming around, each being more of a bitch to kill than the other. Brother, the amount of T30s, T32s and T34s i've met make me truely appreciate high calliber HEAT-FS with 300mm of penetration
I'd have to disagree with that. It's powerful, but most HE shell velocities are slow, the reloads on derp guns are generally very long. I think it just takes a different playstyle.
It just happened to be a match with Russian and America teamed up. I said in a previous comment that it is much harder to kill Russian tanks as they have stronger decks. You generally need to aim for weak spots like cupolas, or even underneath their hull.
German vehicles too can be deadly, it just so happens that german vehicles aren't aware of their surroundings. T34 is a beast yes but one advantage is your reload which loses to most German vehicles. Especially when they destroy ur gun, T34 becomes another piece of paper for the germans 😂😂😂
If i would be using this, I'd probably just get a hit on most vehicles, since overpressure hates me :)
Hehe. I know what you mean :) it is actually pretty easy against German vehicles as they have weak decks. But with Russian and American tanks you have to aim specifically for weak spots. Shooting underneath IS-6 is a really good tactic I found :)

Yeah. It’s pretty scary especially if you are in a German vehicle ( more vulnerable to HE ). It can’t play too aggressive though due to the reload.
If you good enough you can take on modern tanks with this. I use 3OF26 (125mm russian cannons). And i got a Leo2A4,M1 abrams,Leo 2K knocked out with HE rounds
It's good but like he said gotta play slow an cautious. Very long reload
