I recently joined the BR V level due to a single item I've equipped: the highest tier US rifles. Everything else I have equipped is BR II or BR III. I mainly use BR II rifles because the 1 shot kill, 10 round rifles (like the SMLE) serve me the best. All of the squads I use just use rifles so that's why I'm so invested in them.

I'm seriously considering giving up these full auto rifles just to go back to a lower battle rating because battles are now much more difficult and German tanks are one of the biggest culprits in that regard. I spent three lives trying to take out the same German tank with a US tank, my bazookas and the engineer built howizter. 95% of my shots just get deflected off the armor whether I aim for the back, the turret or front.

The bazooka is basically useless as I don't even get hit markers when I shoot it. I shot like 10 bazooka missiles and nothing happened. I spent all of the ammo on the howitzer trying to make a dent and I only managed to kill one crew member. My tank can't stand up to them at all because I do no damage and as soon as they see me and aim at me, I get one shot killed. One cannon shot can cause my tank to explode and set fire to it yet I can't do anything against them in return.

Does anyone else get super frustrating going up against these German tanks?

It also seems that at this BR, most of the enemy infantry have super effective machine guns equipped that decimate my entire squad in seconds. Somehow, I still often place at the top of my team, but my squad deaths are much higher than usual as each enemy encounter is brief and intense where I get a few kills and then instantly get all my soldiers wiped out.
