Its very obvious this tank was both designed and balanced around the 180MM in mind.

Now they have nerfed the 152MM gun on it when it allready looked and felt extremly mediocre and straight up inferior to competing tanks such as 60TP.

It feels like the jet boost was made to get into interesting positions where you might ambush or surprise tanks and penetrate them, get them in positions where the 225/85 pen doesnt matter.

3 big AND weak weakspots on top that you cant wiggle to make harder to hit, so its not designed to sit on ridgelines like the Sconq or M4, rather shoot then back off for a considerable amount of time as you cant stay there for any amount of time, as if you stay there those same tanks will eat you up no problem with those big weakspots.

The combination of both a bad 152MM gun with bad accuracy and bad dispersion values and bad aim time and 3 huge weakspots means you cant trust to reliably hit their weakpot and have to aim for quite some time while yours are super easy to hit, so its not an effective ridge line fighter OR hull down fighter with that gun.

I really wish they would atleast test the 180MM in the Public Test Server and let us decide for ourselfs.

I am not saying the 180MM gun would change the line. The gun looked really bad in my opinion. BUT it looked FUN. Unique. A reason to go for the BZ 75. And if there was a tank to make a gun like that work it surely has to be one with rocket boosts.

I am a big beliver in that not all tank lines are supposed to be meta, but every tank line should have a hook, something unique, that makes people think ''i want that'' wether or not its a good or bad, doesnt matter. Every single chinese tech three line is boring as hell, and thats the simple reason why they are the least played, and releasing the most boring iteration possible of the Rocket Boost tanks isnt the way to solve this problem.

The line feels Dead on Arrival for me, boring and weak. They should go back to the drawing board with the BZ 75 and figure out some real balance between the rocket boost and the tanks themself instead of the limitations they allready have set on themself with their current path and iteration of the tank. Because now its a tank whitout what it was obviously balanced and designed around with a generic gun replacement.

Whats your thoughts? Merry Christmas from a high and drunk world of tanks player, much love to you all, as only fellow world of tanks players know the endless suffering i have suffered so far in this game. love you all. <3 🙂
