Most tier 6 tanks will be able to penetrate, as very few have under 130mm of penetration, but that’s to be expected as its a higher tier. BDR G1 B has 135mm of pen, so its best to try avoid shots from that tank. Though if you run enhanced armour even these tanks have no chance of penetration. The most common tanks you will face that have a chance to penetrate you are the Chi-Nu, T-34, and T1 Heavy, which have 124-128mm of pen. Since Excelsior’s armour is mainly flat, shell normalization doesn’t work against it, so even tanks with 125mm of penetration will struggle against the front of the Excelsior. The Excelsior can be very confident in its armour in tier 4-5 battles. Note the penetration and bounce markings on the tank Excelsior has strong rear armour, this can sometimes save your tank from death.Īrea 1 won’t show up as red, there is an additional plate that covers it which hides the red colour.
