It needs to sound more epic (mortars sound more badass sadly) when it lands, and i think its splash should be dramatically increased.

I saw it one shot a tiger last night...I think the barrage is fine damage/splash wise.

I agree. This artillery lacks some serious sound. (I still dislike the ability)

Ive had it land almost directly on a gren squad and them take no damage :/ Its ok for direct hits on tanks but they are extremely rare.

And for a t3 arty it doesnt compare to the others available.

just sayin, i've never seen a howi barrage kill an almost full health heavy tank.

only things that can do that type of damage are the henschel and maybe rocket arty..

Usually I see Earthshaker used on tanks; rarely is it ever used against my infantry.  On close hits, the rounds will take half of the hp off of a tank (rather than 1-hitting it).  Direct hits usually leave me at less than 10% health or dead.

it needs a serious accuracy and damage increase. what about adding the v1 sound for every shake?

I had a 60% P4 with German steel taken out one shot even thougth the earthshaker was about 25 range or more. I had it on a road and was driving away from the smoke as fast as possible, and it still one shotted the (granted a somewhat damaged) tank. I'd hate to imagine if I had more than one unit there; just another inescapable Allied barrage Roll Eyes

Maybe it has a wide range of odds on how much damage or accuracy it has... but in my case, it need nothing more.

Inescapable? You got extremely unlucky, im guessing 3 barrages out of 5 you could stand still and the barrage wouldnt hit a thing. First time i used it was on the church in rtc, i wasbehind that barn building near the road it koed the squad there :/

earthshaker is pretty crappy, it hits like 2 out of 10 barrages a unit. its so crappy, the best player of the whole community uses it excessively. it should hit units 8 out of 10 barrages with its 700dmg shells. pls.

The ability is rather hit or miss. But when it hits it is awesome.

Question is should it one shot a tiger?


A V1 doesnt one shot a pershing, infact a V1 does even one shot infantry either.

Then delight in the fact that you are ignorant of the game you played in.  Smiley

1 earthshaker round took both a P4 and a stug from full health to 5% crits.

Earthshaker is like 10 mini V1's that drop in less time, have wider spread, and are very hard to dodge.
