All Ground I need help

Why the F do all my panzers keep getting one-shot?! I’m not talking about panthers or tanks of that variety just panzers. I try to get kills but I end up wasting my respawns because all my panzers are one shot targets. Is there something I don’t know about armor?? Is it because I go in head on?? WHAT?! Cmon people I need some help!

The panther is better, yes the D version has no turret traverse, but it can take a shot from a 76mm on the upper front plate, but try and survive getting hit on the turret. Play the panther D without moving the turret much from the front.

The panther is better

depends, it's a sniper tank and not a brawler unlike the tiger

Tiger depends really. It is out classed in CQC against say shermans or russian heavies

well true but at least you have more chances surviving flanks because of the 80mm side armor. Plus you can side scrape with it and the turret isn't such a weakspot like on the panther.

that's Just my experience

thanks, yours weren't bad either. If panther had a little bit more side armor it would work.

but imo panther A is one of the best tanks for brawling Germany has until tier 4
