Amx 30 was my favorite tank to run for a long time, until they nerfed the gun handling to the point it became trash. They should of just left it alone, tank was balanced before the nerfs. Now, I just run the Leo PTA
... 0.04 base turret traverse dispersion is also nutty if you know how to use it. The only downside is the base and premium pen, makes it lackluster compared to other MTs.
Yup, that pen and the shell velocity with the gold rounds really do hold this vehicle back a bit. But I believe that if those aspects were good as well this vehicle might have become very popular even though it's a collector's vehicle. And as we saw with the Progetto, WG don't like popular vehicles.
Crazy DPM means nothing when you're not hitting your shots. AMX 30 and AMX 30B used to be a snipers dream tanks. Then WG killed it. So, there's really no point in running these tanks over the Leo and the Leo PTA as they just perform better with gun handling.
Leo and Leo PTA have better base dispersion but the French meds have better dispersion while turning the turret and while turning. They're not built for sniping but rather for more close-medium ranges where they can use their DPM more effectively and be able to rush into fights and gun down low DPM vehicles when possible. They're not like the Leo tanks which are more suited for medium-long range engagements because they have no armour but are super accurate. I believe that if you'll play more aggressively and try to out DPM your opponents with the French meds you might get better results than trying to snipe with them.
@@baffish Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you can't have a few good games in the AMX. But overall, they suffer. The armor is just not reliable enough to be a close-range tank. I have countless battles in the AMX tanks before the nerfs and after. And I can tell you they are a mere shadow of what they used to be. I would gladly trade the DPM buff they gave it for the gun handling it used to have any day.
@@hardwired4548 I wasn't playing too much at the time of the AMX buffs/nerfs but from what I remember they were a little too good for a while though no? I do agree that the 30B needs a small buff, maybe to the pen but not something that'll make it broken. But the AMX 30 seems to be doing fine as is right now with it being one of the tier 9 medium leaders in WR% and WR differential.
Hi lad! The 30b actually doesnt have the highest dpm in the game of the mediums🫣 it surprisingly goes to the k91 by a whopping 44 dpm more lmao. Still this tank is lovely, i have it with a gunhandling directive and it practically doesnt bloom out anymore its insane.
I thought I said second highest or one of the highest. If I didn't then my bad, I actually did know it was the K-91 because I was also surprised that these are actually the 2 least played medium tanks at tier 10! So I guess people don't like dpm... Also using a directive for the dispersion is interesting, frees up another equipment slot with this vehicle because it already has pretty good dispersion values. Glad to hear you're enjoying your 30B!!!
@@baffish I think people dont like these 2 tanks cuz they're hard to play with. The 30b is just a glass cannon with horrible ammunition and the K91 has the not fully rotatable turret which makes it awkward. I think the K91 is one of the best mediums tho, high dpm, amazing shell velocity and pen on standard. And just absolute supreme camo, like 40/44% on the move with camo build. Got my highest spotting in the K91 I think it was like 11k or something.
I don't think that the 30B having no armour is the reason as the Leopard 1 is actually the most played tier 10 vehicle at the moment. I'd say it's more due to the fact that it's 'hidden' in the collector's vehicles. Agreed about K-91 though! Also 11k is AMAZING!!! GG!!!
DPM, damage per minute if firing continuously what almost never happens, well SPG can keep up its dpm 😛 Its a stat that gets far to much attention imo. Me i like my shells to hit the targets where i aim. 😉😂
I think that works better with large alpha damage guns such as the JG PZ E100 or the FV4005, but the whole point of those high DPM tanks is to put multiple shots out for every time the enemy fires or to rush forwards and out trade their opponent. Sure you won't be able to fire on reload during the entirety of the battle, but high DPM helps whenever you want to go forwards and just do more damage than your opponent quickly.
it does happen if you flank people/ambush people, which is what you should do in paper armored meds, sure it doesnt really matter if you bounce everything off the front of heavily armored tanks
i see it as a good but not crazy , u just fall in love with this Tank
That's how it should be in my opinion. If everyone likes the same vehicle then that vehicle is most likely broken.

this tank has 420 alpha, better reload, and shell velocity in RU server so why would you bother in any other server
Because a lot of players are not on the RU server...

Just got the tank today, just getting the feel of it, I do have the teir 9 which I like
How are you liking it so far?

I am like top 15 in the eu with this tank, performs pretty good actually
DAYUM!!! That's impressive!!!
@@baffish its not really meta tank so, easy to go up on the leaderboard:)
Maybe it's easy, but you're still the one who's actually at 15 and not everyone else. You're allowed to toot your own horn once in a while 😉
@@baffish hehe maybe u are right 😎

My tier IX Amx 30 has a dpm of 3696
Impressive... Most impressive!
I remember the stb being a higher dpm. Am I high?
I got mine to 4180
I guess I was high, I thought it was 2nd but the STB is actually 2nd in terms of DPM with around 40 more than the 30B and just under the K91. My bad!
10 billion in parts, crew with 20 skills 100% and have the guts to brag about beating those without money.
Git gud I guess...
why does it has such trash pen? make its aprc 270 and gold 320
It's great at a lot of other aspects, making it good at everything might make it OP.
cupola cringe on it tho, dont expect much from the french
Crazy DPM though!
most enemies dont aim for the cupola on this tank, they usually bounce the gun mantle lol, thats more "cringe"
It's not my fault the RNG was evil! 😭😭😭
