This used to be my go to tank for fun years ago even when there was the borsig, It’s mobile with good alpha. Then the Skorpion G came out and got one, and basically just pushed the jagpanther II aside.
i remember that superstracture was able to bounce t X tanks. you was fast, traverse speed was out of the world... i was tryharding to 3rd mark it but couldnt do it... i did it with Tiger 2 what was my first tier 8 heavy but failed with jp2 what was the first tier 8 td. and its mindblowing that wg was not ok with its superstructure being able to bounce almost anything but nowadays you have so many tanks in game with barely or none frontal weakspots...
back in the days this was awsome VIII TD that could play hull down and even laught to face of IX and X tanks when shooting gold against -2 TD was really unusuall. This TD was great untill HD model in September 2014, so it was relevant in game in same time as Borsig was choice
This tank used to be incredible until the armor got stealth nerfed with the HD remodel. It gained a shot trap on either side of the gun mantlet, which made it much harder to play hull down. I used to have a replay waaaaay back in the day of me brawling with this tank against a Ferdi, IS6, and a couple others, on a map that is no Ionger in the game
This td is fairly similar to the Kari but the higher camo value and greater mobility makes it better for me. It's surprising the Ferdinand remained and this one was sent to the collector's branch. The gun is the same as in the Maus, Skorpion G or Rhm.
@@heavNz Yeah i'm still salty about that. And for the AMX 30 too. They should've put the tier 8 premium AMX 30 as a tech tree and maybe somekind of sherman at tier 7
@@Vocaloid-Guy maybe he just enjoyed the tier 10 version of jagpanther 2? Also, if you're not a superunicum, typing skill issue to people is ironic at best, so I hope you are lmao
this tank has a massive weak spot right in the middle of its strongest part, the gun mantlet at pretty much any angle is easily penetrable as the armor there can be as low as 120 mm (some stronger parts are 180mm) although some tiny spots can be over 200mm. Tier 7 tanks with apcr gold rounds will go through 90% of the times just by shooting directly into the gun area.
There used to be a lot more rocks that would hide the hull perfectly back in the day, you could farm at long range and bounce shots off the mantlet. WG removed most of the rocks and tuned the game for turreted tanks.
Hey Skill, if only enemy tean had no team... but it was my team! yesterday i had 2 out of 13 wins and only 2 looses like 12:15, the rest of looses was 5:15 or less.
There's something personal about this tank for me, I like it better than Skorpion and Ka-Ri, although I like all of them almost equally. Turbo, improved rotation and rammer are my choice in order to move out of line of fire ASAP in an aggressive gameplay. Turbo is only needed to fix a bad backwards speed somewhat and rotation makes this TD turn so fast that it almost cures the lack of turret. And yes, it has a chance to bounce something worse than HE on a good day. The only evident drawback for me is poor gun depression but this is T8 where every good tank has a quirk or two which give them a character.
I liked this tank back when I used to play, but I felt like the accuracy wasn't as good as it said. I felt like the IS-3 was better at sniping sometimes.
hull down this tank can work againts tier 8 or less . the armor on the cheeck is around 230 , heavy and med tier 8 or any tier 7 and less will have trouble
This was the last tank I played often when ai quit the game in 2015. I came back to the game in 2020 and this was the first tank I played. I didn’t understand what was wrong and why I was getting penetrated by every tank on the map. I sold it after realizing WG had power creeped all the tanks and the JP II no longer had enough armor to fight like it used to.

I run Gun Rammer, Improved aiming and Binocs. I can out spot just about anyone, and along with Designated Target you have more than enough time to spot them and back up behind the bush enough to shoot with out getting spotted in return. This thing is a beast, esp against other tier 8's or below.

One of my favorite tanks. I miss the old days :(
the tank still perform as good . is pretty much my only tier 8 that i play everyday

A glorious vehicle, holds my record for highest base xp game (1907 xp!) Awkward to play in the modern meta, but still hits hard and often.
This one should have remained in the tech tree and ferdi should have been the collector. It makes more sense.
Looking at Jagdtiger and Jagdpanzer E100... does it really, though?

Ferdi is a real TD.
JP2 is fake. That’s why it went to collector side.

Because WG needs a tank in that branch an easy skip so they let Ferdinand remain.

Old Pearl River was ideal for the JP II. My gorgeous dancing girl could out-murder any enemy there.
This is funny. i thought play this Tank again, got to your Website and... haha you played it as well.
the KA-RI of poor people
FINALLY SOMEONE MENTIONING MY FAVORITE TD
JP II at hull down position is very strong. Plus it has mobility. The downside is lack of hull armour, lack of HP and lower DPM.
The armor around the gun was nerfed many years ago. It used to be all 150mm. Now its like 100mm.
Loved Jpeg Ii a T-71 DA for collectors tanks.
damn, i used to like that beast. the only tank i ever have used to platoon with. 2 of these back in the day in a platoon was lots of fun.
Thanks for the selection of the Tanks! Enjoy your vacation.
I can't remember the last time I saw this tank in a random game.
I used to love this tank. Gun takes a punch. It's quite fast (at least compared to Ferdi) and superstructure is very well angled and armored!
hull down this tank can work againts tier 8 or less . the armor on the cheeck is around 230 , heavy and med tier 8 or any tier 7 and less will have trouble
I love this tank its so slick and sexy. Used to own it until I got to T9. Prefered it a lot to Ferdinand, its mobility was top notch.
" Regret their life choices " nice :)
I loved this but after grinding it through and the release of the Skorp G I forgot this completly but never sold it.

@@jacobbalcer7913 super structure was solid back in the day, just with the low gun depression was hard to use. hull is butter ofc
Wdym, you're always supposed to play it like you have no armor. It's ability to just shoot and scoot made it leagues better than the Ferdi.

Armor is about nothing; gun handlgind is shit; mobility is meh; pen is not enough. This vehicle need a solid buff.
