Although it was originally used as a sideline vehicle in Armored Warfare, the tier VIII C1 Ariete has proven to be a surprise favorite. Despite not enjoying the same levels of armor protection of the American Abrams line, nor the hard punch that comes from the Soviet/Russian T-Series, it has been able to hold it's own quite well in conflicts.
However, there are a few things I have noticed since Update 0.19 that make me very glad my adventures in this Italian offering are coming to a close soon.
The amount of damage this vehicle is taking in PvE Hard battles is not on a level shared with other same tiered assets I have used, broken modules can always be counted on to happen and loader injuries pushes up reload times well beyond the glacial times set by the MBT-70.
Part of the issue is the vehicle, the other part lays with the fact enemy bots are, in my opinion, aggressively "over-programed." Even through the use of more conservative and cautious tactics, the Ariete is suffering (at least, by my hands), as can be seen in this recent battle on Watchdog....
