WHITE TIGER GOES TO 6.0 - Tiger 1 E in War Thunder

The Tiger E in War Thunder is a German Heavy Tank that has long since stood at 5.7 as a feared machine. In the last week the br changes moved it to 6.0! I decided to play it to see if the Tiger E is still good.

The short answer is YES! The Tiger fires PzGr. which is as much a HE shell as it is an armor piercing shell. The 88mm cannon ranks as one of the best 1 shot guns in the entire game. Any penetrating shot is an instant return to hanger for opponents.

The Tiger E is pound for pound one of the best Heavy Tanks in War Thunder. It just takes a bit of skill and patience to use!

One of the things that's most annoying in this update is the M26 to 6.7, like it wasn't over performing. Seriously don't understand most of the changes. 😵‍💫

Last update: Lets move coldwar tanks to 8.0 so they won't fight ww2 tanks

This update: Lets put ww2 tanks at a higher br so they may possibly fight coldwar tanks

Gaijin literally took 1 step forward then 2 steps backward

love the M22 interaction, just made the video so much better. Also, the tiger 1 is by far the best box shaped tank in the game, as long as you stay angled you will bounce many, many shots. P.S best way to know if you're angled enough is to have the gun barrel hanging off the corner of the tank when you're looking in the enemy's direction.

Keep getting up tiered to 6.7 or 7.0 games and paired with Cold War vehicles now Germany is really tough at 6.0

Loved to play Tiger H, JPanzer 4 and Panther on 5.3... this patch made me cry

[smolwavingsnail]

I switched to the lower pen higher tnt and never looked back. Its nearly always a one shot. You hardly ever need that extra pen. Its definitely a worthy trade off

My favorite tank is the Tiger P. That 204mm of armor in the front makes it basically unstoppable, because from a distance(or at a glance) you look like a normal Tiger, more specifically you look like a *new* Tiger player, because you aren't angled. Most players will then aim for the usual weakspot...only to be stopped dead.

One thing I picked up from one of the ZoltanSultan videos is that when you attach your tow rope to a husk you move it radically more easily, even pushing. It definite saves a bunch of time compared to repositioning to get around points where there's a bunch of ex-tanks.

Don't worry German mains, I'm doing my part to reduce it's BR by being terrible with it

5:10 you hit the sprocket! soviet sprockets are made with Stalinium in this game; it's impenetrable and indestructible, while also swallowing all the shrapnel to prevent destroying the track

[gaijinrecors]

This tank definitely fights M46s and T95s well.

Angling a Tiger after this update has proven absolutely useless. Most people have more than 90mm cannons that just laughs at your angled armor as if its butter. Panthers get one shot by mostly anything in their frontal plate as well. Basically the entire German lineup at 5.7-6.7 just became light tanks that move very slow.

This map is getting removed because its just sitting at the corner watching B like Oddz was doing, not because of sniper alley.

[vanillagorilla]

I love watching Odd fly the do335, he’s an old hat at German do fighting.

[Hafutsuri]

you can say alot of things about the tiger, but damn does it look good.

[hakzource]

After the update, my 6.0 lineup kinda got ruined because of constant uptiers. Ironically 6.7 France was more enjoyable 😂

30:43 It's like a little kid wandering into a meeting of 1% bikers. Some of the most terrifying people, but the little kid is safe as can be.

My biggest problem with it is how it destroyed Germany's 5.3 br. Before the only 5.3 german vehicles was the Tiger H1, Jagdpanzer IV/70, Nashorn, and Panther D. Now its really just the Panther D and Nashorn which are not a full line up. Even 5.7 Germany took a hit. Now only having the Waffentrager, Jagdpanzer IV/70, Premium Tiger I(P), and Tiger H1. Again not a full line up. If there was any sort of German players leaving after 1 death it will especially be now as we have not enough vehicles for a full line up.

[SchrodingerMil]

The fact that they moved up WW2 tanks to be able to match with Cold War tanks after their previous adjustment is one thing. My biggest problem with the German BR Changes is that upgraded vehicles are all the same BRs now. I used to have a lineup of the Tiger H1 with 5.3 and below vehicles, one with the Tiger E and the Panther A at 5.7, then one at 6.3 with the Tiger II (P) and the the Panther F.

But...All the Panthers are the same BR now besides the Panther D, and the Tiger II (P) is the same as the Tiger II (H). Why is this the case? the Panther F has more turret armor, and a rangerfinder. It is a straight upgrade over the Panther A, so why is it the same BR? The Tiger II (H) has nearly double the turret armor and more turret traverse over the (P), so why is IT the same BR? There's literally no reason to use the Panther A or Tiger II (P) anymore.
