VK2801 nerf:
depression gets nerfed by 2 degrees from -10 to -8
105mm HEAT gets the same nerf penetration nerf as the Panzer IV - from 150 to 104
105mm shell price gets twice as expensive (from 60 to 120), with the HEAT shell price moving from 7g to 10g.
Aufklärungspanzer Panther buffs:
MM weight gets reduced (from 32,4 to 27),
50 HP more (from 950 to 1000)
but the price will increase by 40k.
Tracks will get a slight HP buff and the Konish will get an aimtime buff (from 2s to 1,7s). Furthermore, the Konish silver ammo price will be halved.

I don´t regret my decision to sell the Fatopard after the last nerf.
As a replacement, I recommend the Batmobile - (almost) similar playstyle, but much more fun.

I swear I am cursed. I want to post Pearl River but every one of the few times I get to play this map I am on the same side...

I can't wait. It will finally be the end of all the bandwagon Cougar drivers and we will be back to the people who actually know how to play it. I had over 18,000 battles in mine using purely HE before HEAT became a cheap option so all I can say is: the tank won't go away.

sure it won´t go away, but it will be less and less fun to play it. I had a 2250 XP game in it yesterday and its a nice tank and I had much fun driving it, but comparing it to other light tanks it gets worse and worse with every patch, while its old adversary the T-50-2 stayed the same. I know it will get replaced in 8.7, but I don´t think it will get nerfed much.

Ever since they slightly nerfed the T-50-2 several months ago it has had the worst Win Rate of the (then) 3 Tier V Scouts. A 28.01 still tears it up. It will remain the best of the Tier VI Scouts, but be a bit more of a challenge to play. The thing I question is this: if you make HEAT less effective, why boost the cost so much? Nerf its performance, but don't make it as expensive as ammo from several tiers higher.

They nerfed the T-50-2? In what way? When I take mine for a spin, I drive it like always. The drop in winrate could also be because too many noobs play it now ;)
The HEAT cost increase is perhaps to make it less profitable on tier 4 and 5 in Hetzer and Pz.IV and like always its WG overreacting, Like with the Marder II nerf, it was a good tank, many good and experienced players used it to boost their stats and egos making it op in their hands.

T-50-2 got biggest mobility nerf in wot history, -10 deg turning speed + all tanks lost some mobility when physcis came**, so yes, T-50-2 got nerfed HARD
and about VK28, atm, its still a good tank, and much better as other t6 scouts, after 8.6 it will be just as worthless and shit as it was before, so time to sell it, and put my 3e skill crew in something else...
**edit: and the faster u where, the bigger this nerf was, T-5-2 as second fastest tank of the game lost thus the most mobility (and on top of that -10 deg turning speed)

It was always good and will continue to be good; just not quite as good.

T-50-2 will be removed (probably in 8.7) and switched to MT-25 so enjoy your tank as long as you can.
