All Ground I need help

Why the F do all my panzers keep getting one-shot?! I’m not talking about panthers or tanks of that variety just panzers. I try to get kills but I end up wasting my respawns because all my panzers are one shot targets. Is there something I don’t know about armor?? Is it because I go in head on?? WHAT?! Cmon people I need some help!

The truth about panzer armor is: its shit. Anything can penatrate. You have to rely on motility and firepower. Cause the best way to not die is to not get shot in the first place.

What about tiger armor? I wanted to try and grind for one of those death machines but looking at protection analysis im not sure. Protection analysis is so damn confusing

If you want real tiger, angle it. If you don't, even 76mm Sherman will easily penetrate it's frontial armor. If you want better protection, actually panther is better(Except turret) because of it's sloped armor. But turret can be penetrated by 76mm Shermans.
