Tier 8 - T26E5
The T26E5, or the “Patriot” variant, is a Ridgeline Warrior through and through. That being said, it’s also one of the greatest all-rounders at Tier 8, equipped with arguably the greatest gun of all Heavies within its respective Tier. The outstanding DPM, consistent gun handling, and high-penetration nature of the T26E5’s main armament are exactly what a Support Heavy needs to do its job. A backup of very strong turret armor and decent mobility allows the Patriot to position itself wherever it needs to, retreat if necessary, or stand and fight.
