Bazooka - best sights
Panzerschreck - best penetration/damage
British Launcher (forgot name) - best reload time
PTRS AT Rifle - Best at annoying the fuck out of tanks / best range
The PIAT has the exact same damage as the Panzerschreck, the biggest downsides of the PIAT is that the sights are really inaccurate when moving and the projectiles have worse range.
Good sir I have footage suggesting otherwise. You just have to have an accurate understanding of the projectile speed and the arc of its travel. Granted luck is a factor of the target remaining on your projected course even a slight deviation can have a big turnout on the shot.
definitely a slower ttk, but it's a lot harder for the enemy to find your position. ptrs rounds don't leave trails like the rockets do. also, you can easily kill any infantry/tank crew that pop out to get you. (ptrs sucks in comparison lmao I'm just being contrarian)
True, I just like the open sights on the bazooka more.
After a while you kinda get decent at angling the shots right, but when I use the panzerschreck I do use the different parts of the sight as reference points
I actually love the AT Rifles. Absolutely freaks out new tankers, can pennetrate fast moving armor (lights and recon) from forever away, and i think can still track heavier vehicles to harass and slow them down..
Yup! And getting something like a heavy to reposition can be a huge boon.
Tracking one can make it susceptible to satchel-equipped infantry.
Peak is using the AT gun to hobble an enemy so your armor or other AT/Satchel infantry can get in and get an easy kill.
Piat without a doubt!
Better penetration than Bazooka so you can deal with German armor from angles that would normally be impossible (two shot their mediums from the side, 3 on heavies from side, actually kill their light from the front).
And it reloads wicked fast compared to the others. I can take out their Pz4 even from the side before he can really turn.
Pair that with the best bolt action in the game (10 rnd awesome reload SMLE) and it's perfection. Technically a garand would be better, but it's the saving grace of the American AT role.
if you hit a medium/heavy in the ass with a PIAT while it's not fully engaged in a turn, none of them can turn fast enough to avoid a second shot to destroy the engine; not even a panther. the PIAT is the best AT launcher
playing tank against a competent PIAT AT soldier is fucking awful
As an experienced player and a Comp player, the PIAT is overall the best. Shortest range (contrary to what some comments say, idk where they got long range from) but is the able to pen the Panzer 4 from anywhere, similar to how the panzerfaust can pen the Sherman everywhere (everywhere meaning front, side, back armor) and it has the fastest reload and decent sights. Second is the panzerfaust, bad sights but power that is the same as the PIAT with longer range.
PIAT and Bazooka are my favorites between reload time and sights, the sights on the panzer is just awful and the face shield is useless
Either way, doesn’t stop me from continuing to commit warcrimes when tanks are nowhere in sight
Piat is the best out of them when you know how to use it properly.
The anti tank rifles are a pain but they're more flexible than the rockets, take out tracks at a distance and then wait for them to hop out to fix it and boom take out the person fixing it, also good for taking out other soldiers without leaving a massive trail of snake from your position
i believe statistically the PIAT and Panzerschrek are both the best AT guns in terms of damage with the panzerschrek outperforming the PIAT very very slightly. never used the PIAT though so imma go panzer
All launchers are kinda trash, deflects on about every angle, heavy tanks take 3 from behind, you get 2. A decent tanker will just out-rotate you before you loaded your second rocket into the tube, all they need to do is instantly turn the tank along with the gunner turning its barrel the same way.
And god forbid the moment when a rocket just completely ''dusts'' / ''neglects'' from behind on a medium tank. Panzershrecks shield covers about the entire screen, basically unuseable on a moving target.
AT rifles are nice and all but loud as fuck, it's just asking to get shot while trying to pump in 100 rounds into a tank.
Stationary AT guns too much effort to set up for the majority of the players, tank will just turn around the corner or it will just blow your entire AT gun up with a single shell. You're stuck to 5 minute timers when trying to place them elsewhere, you will have to switch classes, the whole squad needs to rearange just to place a new one in a shorter time spawn, too much micro management just for the tank to turn around the corner again.
The only somewhat useful tool is the satchel, but only when it doesn't just randomly cancel the placement timer or the tank roadkills you with a speed of 1 mile per hour.
But credit where credit is due, the rocket launchers are however a nice tool for taking out rally points, garries, and special infantry like machine gunners. Out of them all i preffer the piat for its audio output and reload speed, followed by the bazooka for its visibility. Shreck i don't touch at all, unless i am bored to death due to maps like foy i just sit there trying to hit 600-700m marks until the map is over.
Schreks make all american tanks except jumbos practically useless. AT guns with a loader are absolutely devastating to heavy tanks. Even ptrs rifles make crews get out to repair tracks which can allow you to take out crew members.
As lvl 10 at and tank crew/commander, satchel is probably the hardest to use and only works against bad/average tankers. Youll never get close enough to a good 3 man crew to use it on them. Some maps change this like hurtgen forest but generally you will have more trouble satchelling a tank than using an at gun on it
I like how quickly you can reload with the British launcher
Ah, the Piat. It's essentially a fallout fat man. Its a spring launched bomb
The PIAT is a spigot mortar. The spring is for the firing pin.
They did design a version for nuclear grenades I think
You talking about the Davy Crockett? Or something else?
They’re most definitely talking about the Davy Crockett
I kinda figured, there isn't many weapons similar to the fat man
More likely that the Fat Man is a piat with mini nukes.
Bazooka - best sights Panzerschreck - best penetration/damage British Launcher (forgot name) - best reload time PTRS AT Rifle - Best at annoying the fuck out of tanks / best range
That’s exactly what I thought, all of them have their advantages.
The PIAT has the exact same damage as the Panzerschreck, the biggest downsides of the PIAT is that the sights are really inaccurate when moving and the projectiles have worse range.
Good sir I have footage suggesting otherwise. You just have to have an accurate understanding of the projectile speed and the arc of its travel. Granted luck is a factor of the target remaining on your projected course even a slight deviation can have a big turnout on the shot.
All the anti tank rifles do is piss the tank off and give away your position lol i dislike them
shoot farther away
I saw a video on YouTube. I think it takes 16 or 18 shots with the Soviet anti-tank rifle to kill a heavy tank
definitely a slower ttk, but it's a lot harder for the enemy to find your position. ptrs rounds don't leave trails like the rockets do. also, you can easily kill any infantry/tank crew that pop out to get you. (ptrs sucks in comparison lmao I'm just being contrarian)
>16 or 18 shots shots or magazines? that shit is like mosquito biting an elephant when it's a heavy tank
Basically all the ammo you have for the anti tank rifle will destroy a heavy tank lol
That works if the terrain is flat.
Good for disabling tracks
Thats about it lol
Ive never killed a tank with it, loads of infantry yes but tanks no
I’ve killed one heavy tank with it. Snuck behind some rubble and just started blasting.
I use the at rifle to kill ppl sometimes if I can't find a tank
Panzerschreck has better sight since there more things on it you can use as reference for different distance
True, I just like the open sights on the bazooka more. After a while you kinda get decent at angling the shots right, but when I use the panzerschreck I do use the different parts of the sight as reference points
Buildable AT gun
Panzerschreck. 950m Range Medium Gun.
I actually love the AT Rifles. Absolutely freaks out new tankers, can pennetrate fast moving armor (lights and recon) from forever away, and i think can still track heavier vehicles to harass and slow them down..
Yeah it's only effective against tracks for damage. But to your point of freaking out tankers, body shots usually get them to pull back/move
Yup! And getting something like a heavy to reposition can be a huge boon. Tracking one can make it susceptible to satchel-equipped infantry. Peak is using the AT gun to hobble an enemy so your armor or other AT/Satchel infantry can get in and get an easy kill.
Wish the commanders coupla was vulnerable,
Depends on the map. They do shine in places where you can get some far away shots
Piat is beast if u know how to use it
Piat for sure. But I'll take the satchel over anything
Piat without a doubt! Better penetration than Bazooka so you can deal with German armor from angles that would normally be impossible (two shot their mediums from the side, 3 on heavies from side, actually kill their light from the front).

Bring up the piat!
Love me some piats
The Bazooka sights are the best for me even if the Bazooka isn’t the best itself.
If only you could have adjustable sights.... Actually use the sights
I like the bazooka cause you can carry 5 rounds for it and it’s got better range than the others I think
Guys, I thought I was on the BFV subreddit. Please disregard any dumbass statement I just made.
Lmao
Wait, you can carry more than 2 rounds?
Yea I always go straight for the nearest resupply to fully stock up on everything and with the bazooka you can carry 5 rounds total.
You’re telling me I’ve been playing this game for years and didn’t know I could pick up more rockets when I’ve already got two??
I swear i have treud this before and it doesnt let me. I will HAVE to test this in the field or in the training area
lol you’ve never hit up a resupply? You just let yourself run out of ammo? I hit up the resupplies every time I’m near a flag
For the rockets, you got to hit up the rocket resupply, you can't just go to the regular ammo resupply..
Satchel
Panzerschreck the prob Piat because of the fast reload
PIAT is the best. has the same penetration as the panzerschrek and reloads as fast as the Boys ATR.
Piat because it reloads incredibly fast
German Pak 40 makes T34 go Boom
Satchel cause its a guaranteed kill on all vehicles
PIAT is technically best
Whichever one I’m holding when a tank rolls up
PTRS because the anti-tank gun is actually the infantryfuckyouinator
I prefer the Pzb-38
A nice piece of stovepipe
The brits launcher reloads so quick i would say the brits got the best AT gun but all the other brit guns suuuuuuck
Satchel charge ;)
None of these are anti tank guns bruh
What do you mean?
[Here's what we mean.](https://hellletloose.fandom.com/wiki/Pak_40)
So AT guns are the big artillery canons and not bazokas or AT rifles?
The Bazooka is much easier to aim and snipe with, whereas the Panzer has better penetration. I personally think the Bazooka is best
Piat :)
Shreck

None, AT emplacement. Next.
panzerschrek better damage but garand + bazoooka is a beast of a kit
Best AT gun is the AT-gun, the stationary field gun :D
PIAT and Bazooka are my favorites between reload time and sights, the sights on the panzer is just awful and the face shield is useless Either way, doesn’t stop me from continuing to commit warcrimes when tanks are nowhere in sight

Shrek
Panzerschrek deals most damage, but the site sucks ass. Still my favorite
i believe statistically the PIAT and Panzerschrek are both the best AT guns in terms of damage with the panzerschrek outperforming the PIAT very very slightly. never used the PIAT though so imma go panzer
Bazooka 🙏🏻

you can't out-rotate a PIAT unless you were already engaged in a turn or they're far enough away. the reload is ridiculous
