my favorite french is the one who best in going backwards

So the M4a1 mysteriously looks like a AMX 50 49

so arl 44 ?

#

@rigid thunder what do you think of the movie "FURY"?

amber rapids
#

is*

wary sage
#

foch 155 (PC version), cause im a sucker for glass cannons

livid wraith
#

Fury is kinda crappy and inaccurate

spare forge

Whichever runs away the fastest is the true spirit of France

amber rapids
#

idk all frenchs run backwards

rigid thunder
#

@inner raptor a good action movie and that's it

tawny cargo
#

Well are are active :D

amber rapids
#

hey wanna hear a joke

inner raptor
#

So... No accurate vielcles or historical stuff?

is-4 and mk6, but i don't have them. :/

Does anyone know when The AMX 30 B is coming?

inner raptor
#

No

tawny cargo
livid wraith
#

Within the month

amber rapids
#

ok

edgy oyster
#

30 B is the best tier 10 medium i have ever driven

dusky stone
#

lol

livid wraith
#

Not anymore

#

My favourite French tank is the Fcm 36 pak 40 😏

edgy oyster
#

i love it

livid wraith
#

30b has been nerfed into the ground

tawny cargo
#

Elc and bc25t muskeeter

edgy oyster
#

idk how good it wilBy Far my favoul be now when they release it but when i tested it, it was by far the best tank i have driven

solid gate
#

I want to pick the M4A1 Rev ok, but WG should take a look at a strange fact. Why the 105 mm alpha is identical to the 100 mm alpha of the AMX M4 49?

livid wraith
#

Yeah somehow they overlooked the B C as well

solid gate
#

And now i think about it... My Lowe also has 310 alpha, and it's a 105 mm gun

#

It's not correct, either they rebalance the 100 mm or the 105 mm ones

rigid thunder
#

not sure why WG decided to make the rev have typical 105mm dmg while in PC it's selling point is the 390 alpha

lapis spindle
#

rockhard baguette!

quaint cargo
#

m4 mle for the win lads

solid gate
#

Yeah, sadly I wasted my money on the 58 Mutz which is seriously weak for its tier in all aspects apart from gun depression and accuracy

quasi mirage
#

Yeah 310 isnt worth it. 350 would be

#

also amx 50b

wild trail
#

Lorraine

near forge
#

M4 Mlem for the win, yes

faint iron
#

M449 worth the 10K? It seems like a very competitive tank.

rigid thunder
#

yeah, the vehicle stats are just good

faint iron
#

Fav is Lorraine no doubt.

Just to hear the nubs whine some more😂

rigid thunder

oof

I love the lorraine
(AMX 40 i miss you)
Duck power

wise moth
#

Honestly, there’s not a single French tank tier 8+ that I don’t like.

Edit-scratch that, FCM 50t sucks hard

lusty junco
#

AMX CDC

#

Hell year

tender cave
#

I agree. Its very difficult to play with FCM50t. The lowest of all my wr by far. Other fr t8 are good. But i dont have lorraine yet.

tepid cairn
#

Why did no one mention the UE?

#

The master of Penetration

cosmic sinew
#

Yeah FCM 50t is not a tank for new player

solid gate
#

best is lorraine 40t

dark socket
#

FCM 50 t one of my favorites, I think I got like 2k battles in it or something

stuck sphinx
#

I can only say the FCM 50t is my favorite because it's my only French tank

#

I'll do that tech tree eventually

dark socket
#

I got CDC and Revalorise too, Revalorise is also one of my favorites

solid gate
#

The best tank still is the Amx CDC

dark socket
#

I like my Revalorise and FCM 50 t over the CDC

magic dirge
#

Favorite french tank is the AMX 30 1er

cosmic sinew
#

The time when you destroy an heavy with ram in the AMC CDC (mad game) Good old Day ;_;

#

My fav french tank is Foch

grizzled shale

My fav French is that one in enemy team that is easly penetrated with he xD

hollow moth
#

I would like OBJ. 704 but i like pz 4 s and grosstraktor

pastel drum
#

Gosh, stop reposting it.

hollow moth
#

If war gaming want money, why don't make another derp tank but tier 7 and german?

#

People love derp tanks

#

The big german deathstar

near forge
#

...3000 Alpha for the Prammo option?

#

Something tells me that's a little fake...

tulip sail
#

Its loading time is 10 minutes for that round

near forge
#

SO it's a one shot wonder then. 1 shot a Maus and then die happy XD

#

Well, there it has 2.45 in the place where Rounds per minute would be, so it has about a 30 second reload or so...at T8 it's able to easily one shot something MULTIPLE TIMES PER ROUND...That's a little unbalanced, even for WG if this is real

hollow moth
#

Break the tank's engine and after 3 secs you break the track too...

#

Is it a joke or what?

#

E25 Ninja xD? nah...take out the xd

For High levels

calm stratus
#

SU-100 is better than SU-122P (SU-100 with 122mm D-2-5S)

Prove me wrong

wintry sand
#

Then by that thinking the T-54 (1949) is better then T-54 (1947)

calm stratus
#

That is correct

leaden schooner
#

best "X" heavy for rating-battles?

calm stratus
#

Tier?

leaden schooner
#

X

calm stratus
#

That's a tough one, I'm gonna have to crunch some numbers

#

T57 Heavy, E100 and IS-4 are about equal depending on how you play

leaden schooner
#

thank y

calm stratus
#

I considered FV215b, but it's too much of a niche situational tank to rely on
And Maus is just far better for pubstomping due to how E100's 15cm is overperforming
IS-7 is worse than IS-4 in almost every way
And 113 just can't turn and gets outflanked by some faster TDs and heavies

leaden schooner
#

most offer IS-4

calm stratus
#

Because it's just that good overall

leaden schooner
#

i am sure after i take it,WG nerf it

calm stratus
#

They won't nerf it before they nerf E100's gun
It got buffed so much ages ago it actually has better everything than Maus' 12.8

leaden schooner
#

i wish y are right

calm stratus
#

That's rammer only, because everything else is preference

solid gate
#

AT-2 = British V tier TD
AT-2 = Soviet II tier TD (now collectors tank R.I.P.)

calm stratus
#

Why do people put a dash where it doesn't belong?

leaden schooner
#

@calm stratus ,thx

vivid lagoon
#

finally tanks-encyclopedia has an article on the M6A2E1...

faint iron
#

Smasher, WZ120 FT are in that list somewhere, also Mod 1 and ke ni otsu.

thick trout
#

Mod 1 isnt that op. Its good but nothing too unbalenced when everyone spams prammo at you

tender sundial
#

Man the amx m4 49 is such a joy to play

heavy moss
#

Mod1 is the most beginner mode medium there is. Prammo wont help at the point where people just dance the 120mm front plate around with huge traverse numbers.

tender sundial
#

Type 59 is better

heavy moss
#

It is op, but not by as much as tanks in other classes are. Its still just a sluggish med with low pen in a tier full of heavies

tender sundial
#

Tru

heavy moss
#

@tender sundial i prefer the type too, but i wish it had gun handling as good as on the mod 1

tender sundial
#

Fair but it does have gun depression and that's crazy for a Russian based tank

#

But I wish the pen were better

heavy moss
#

The aim time is what kills the fun for me. The dpm i can stand since its usually easy to control an engagement with such a good armor profile.

#

I like the t34-3s gun more :D

tender sundial
#

Oh?

vivid lagoon
#

I like the Kv2's gun more

tender sundial
#

Kv5 needs a 152mm

vivid lagoon
#

oof

tender sundial
#

Would be amazing

night kelp
#

Is amx m4 good?

shut prairie
#

It's a frenchie but it knowns the definition of armor
If I could, I would buy it
Seems good to me from what I heard

night kelp
#

ohh. Is amx pak good?

bold zenith
#

Nope

stable zealot
#

so.. would this image be considered the ST-1 Soviet heavy or the IS-4 Soviet heavy?

bold zenith
#

Obj. 120

stable zealot
#

o

#

wait obj 120 is a different tank

#

im just asking cus the hull looks similar to that of the ST-1 or IS-4

wise moth
#

Looks like STI with the stock turret

tulip sail
#

Let me ask someone and I'll find out

vivid lagoon
#

hmm object 750? is5?

tulip sail
#

Personally I'm thinking it's an is1 but im going to ask someone who knows alot more about Russian tanks

#

Ok so I asked my friend who knows a ton about Russian heavies and it's an
Object 701-1

vivid lagoon
#

hmm sounds about right

tulip sail
#

Yeah he knows so much more then me its quite impressive I'm just glad he was on discord

twilit wigeon
#

pretty sure there was a reason but I cant remember it atm

tulip sail
#

Iirc they had too many people complaining that someone got ahold of there account and sold all of the tanks

calm inlet
#

for security reasons

tulip sail
#

They should add the m4-SO-122

frank swift
#

I dunno

#

KV2 turret with IS2 hull

vivid lagoon
#

that's a smasher... lol

solid gate
#

Hey i have a question and need help. Should I buy smasher or should i wait for the AMX??

hollow quarry
#

Amx?

short raptor
#

AMX 30B

solid gate
#

And don’t

short raptor
#

@solid gate yeah, @solid gate hit it in the head. The 30B (if it is released as it currently is) has less DPM than any other tier 10 medium by nearly 400. On top of this it doesn’t have nearly as good an armor profile as the AMX 30 prototype, Hell, it has the Eiffel Tower on its head as well

supple dome
#

Another overpriced tank. Good work wargaming, let people buy their way to tier X. Who needs skills amirite.

#

The worst part is this one isn’t even good.

heavy moss
supple dome
#

Why wargaming…why must you kill me with cringe and bad ping at the same time.

thorny imp
#

2.5% chance to get the tank from Containers. Lol !!

worthy trail
#

Wg why can't you just sell tanks normally crates are pointless people want the tank so why don't you just let people actually but it guaranteed I have wanted it for ages

tender sundial
#

Cuz they make more money from crates

dull current
#

They make more money and loos tons of players

lethal star
#

They’ll just sell the AMX straight up in 6 months. 🤷‍♂️

solid gate
#

How to play the Cent mk. 1?

brisk orbit
#

dont die

#

pair up with a t-44 (preferably one with a 100mm on

rigid thunder
#

why ignore type 59

#

china number 1

pastel drum
#

Gently whisper: "WZ 120 g ft

brisk orbit
#

wish i had one

#

is it that op as people say?

dark socket
#

yes, it's so OP I want to ram kill everyone of them when I get the chance, shooting them is not enough for me

pastel drum
#

@dark socket best counter is IS3 Defender for WZ 120 g ft

brisk orbit
#

yea but is it op

dark socket
#

yeah

brisk orbit
#

show an example

#

how much was it sold for anyways

pastel drum
#

Excellent frontal armor, Great speed, Excellent gun, good cammo. It has everything except a turret

rigid thunder
#

if I'm not mistaken it has pretty good traverse speeds

brisk orbit
#

@pastel drum WZ-120-1 G FT Defender

pastel drum
#

@brisk orbit if you are on EU every battle in rating in tier 8 you will meet at least 2 of them

dark socket
#

I did, I hate them so much I want to ram kill them

#

I tunnel them, I hate them that much

brisk orbit
#

400 alpha with 9s reload gg

#

@pastel drum asia server you dont see them much

dark socket
#

like, it's almost impossible to get around the thing 1 on 1

rigid thunder
#

you can always piss them off by spamming HEAT at their upper superstructure

pastel drum
#

unless you are a CDC or RU 251. Then it is possible but very hard

brisk orbit
#

saw an lttb kill one cuz the wz was dumb enough to sidescrape when the lttb was at his back

dark socket
#

not all tank have good gold shells tho, like Russian medium tanks and the like, their gold pen ain't enough to punch through the super structure

brisk orbit
#

how much was it sold for

dark socket
#

I cannot remember

rigid thunder
#

@dark socket hehe type 62

brisk orbit
#

also can a tog 2 kill a ru 251 by cliff jumping

dark socket
#

Type 62 some times doesn't cut it either, maybe calibrated shells but it can still be a sketchy pen

rigid thunder
#

who in the world runs calibrated in a 62

brisk orbit
#

wish i had one with keniotsu

dark socket
#

I own a Type 62 and T-34-3

rigid thunder
#

same

pastel drum
#

I own a type 62 too and sometimes it is frustrating when WZ just charges at you and yoy do not pen the HEAT

dark socket
#

T-34-3 and IS tanks can pen the WZ easy if they have calibrated shells (with HEAT)

pastel drum
#

Right now on EU rating there are scorpions and WZs running around like crazy

brisk orbit
#

well in asia its rare to see one of them

dark socket
#

T-34-3 with calibrated shells is like 297mm of HEAT pen on average

brisk orbit
#

i wish i can see a vk 100.01 cliff jump and hit it

rigid thunder
#

I never run calibrated on any tank, the 34-3 has such a bad reload usually it's better for a rammer

pastel drum
#

I run it on an IS3 Def as you can not use gun rammer on autoloaders

dark socket
#

I'd rather Calibrated shells for T-34-3 because I feel like having more pen than DPM

#

You lot know the top gun on the WZ-111G FT? the Tier IX Chinese TD

pastel drum
#

the top gun is a 152 mm right?

dark socket
#

yeah

pastel drum
#

what about it

dark socket
#

it's the same gun as the Tier X

#

it gets 290mm of AP pen and can see Tier VIII

#

305mm of pen with Calibrated shells

pastel drum
#

Hold up, this means that the tier 9 is better than the tier 10? Sounds like grille and WT auf pz 4 case

dark socket
#

nah, I ain't saying that, the Tier IX has a 15.4 second reload with gun rammer and both food

#

and a 16.5 second reload with Calibrated Shells

#

but 305mm of pen and can see tier VIII, that's funny and overkill, and it stands a good chance against Tier X

rigid thunder
#

13.5 is with rammer I'm retarded

dark socket
#

the WZ-111G FT?

rigid thunder
#

wait nvm lmao I misinterpreted your words

dark socket
#

Don't worry 'bout it

#

I'm gonna keep mine after I research the WZ-113G FT

#

what you run for equipment @solid gate

pastel drum
#

WZ 111g FT is very fat imo

dark socket
#

big truth

pastel drum
#

Ok time for coins. Bye

dark socket
#

Chinese TD's be like
Tier VI: Small, has gud gun and stuff
Tier VII: Also small, very nice gun but troll Accuracy
Tier VIII: Jesus, we like doubled in size
Tier XI and X: Big chongus

calm stratus
#

50 120 is trash

tulip sail
#

@frank swift it's a movie prop

wise moth
#

@calm stratus Uh, are you sure you're talking about the 50 120? The 50 120 is amazing

calm stratus
#

Not when stock

wise moth
#

Everything sucks when stock

calm stratus
#

And why have a huge paper heavy when you can have the best autoloader in the game (T57)?

lethal star
#

mobility

calm stratus
#

When has mobility ever saved a barn?

thick trout
#

When it can run away instead of taking hits 🤦

calm stratus
#

Why run away when you can blast people in the face?

wise moth
#

You can be more aggressive with mobility

calm stratus
#

T57 is pretty mobile tho

wise moth
#

T57 is incredibly slow

thick trout
#

@calm stratus and when reloading?

calm stratus
#

At least it can turn lol

wise moth
#

Not that much faster

calm stratus
#

And it's also smaller

wise moth
#

Can T57 chase down medium tanks? I think not

#

Can T57 rotate around the map to get crossfires? I think not

calm stratus
#

The meds chase you down and lose 1200 HP

wise moth
#

They can't pen you if they're dead. The 50 120 has 1200 clip potential at tier IX; if you pen all 3 shots on a tier IX med, unless they're full HP, they probably won't survive

quasi mirage
#

t57 is a pretty bad tank overall

calm stratus
#

50 120 has really bad HP considering the armour

#

@quasi mirage you're wrong

quasi mirage
#

@wise moth im just wondering did you get my discord channel invite?

#

@calm stratus i played multiple autoloaders with around 7k+ battles in all autoloaders. I generally excel/overperform my career winrate in everything but the t57

calm stratus
#

Maybe you just can't play a slow autoloader

neat bison
#

T57 iS A bAd TaNk OvErAlL
dude
duuude what are you on? I wanna have some of it

calm stratus
#

T57 heavy actually has the best traverse of all tier 10 heavies offroad, and 2nd best on pavement

The autoloader is superior to 50b's
Good viewrange
Best turret traverse of all tier 10 heavies

wise moth
#

Who cares about traverse?

quasi mirage
#

id rather have the 50b with the mobility to actually put dmg

calm stratus
#

I can do damage with T57 tho

wise moth
#

50 B trolls more bounces, has way more mobility, and more gun depression

quasi mirage
#

dude ik how to play autoloaders. I have like 7k battles. @wise moth probably has more than melol

calm stratus
#

And traverse helps a lot in many situations

wise moth
#

57 can only pick one flank; and hope for the best in a straight fight, 50 B has the luxury to choose its fights

calm stratus
#

How about when people start shooting you?

quasi mirage
#

the reverse speed is awful on the t57. Its not a good combo. Id rather have the amx even if the exposure time is supposed to be longer

wise moth
#

Why are you in a fair fight?

#

With the 50 B, just take a fight where you can either trade at a 2:1 advantage, or where the enemy can't fight back

calm stratus
#

It's not a fair fight because I'm in the best autoloader

wise moth
#

The 57 doesn't have the luxury of being able to choose fights like that

neat bison
#

just because you do badly with it doesnt mean its a bad tank
say for example theres a guy in the room here saying uh 57 heavy is such a bad tank, pretty bad tank overall because well he cant drive the T57 even if his life depends on it

guess theres a reason why his name says wannabe because he wants to be but fails in the end aye?;

calm stratus
#

Oof

quasi mirage
#

the amx is in agreat position because its a heavy but has medium mobility. It can use speed boost early game to catch enemy heavies out of position

wise moth
#

@neat bison Uh, neither me nor wannabeunicum do badly in the T57; I'm willing to be we both have better stats in the 57 than you do in any tank

calm stratus
#

50b isn't a heavy tho
It's a fat medium

quasi mirage
#

@neat bison i have 3k avg dmg and 70% winrate in my amx lol. im too cheap to have a name change

wise moth
#

It's a medium with the penetration and firepower of a heavy

calm stratus
#

Dunno about firepower

median oak
#

And size 😉

neat bison
#

isnt that the theme of the French heavies in general?
but god damn the 50 100 is just not very good compared to the Lorr

quasi mirage
#

@neat bison dont even try roasting me scrub.

neat bison
#

why roast something thats already burnt aye?

wise moth
#

50 100 is still pretty decent. It still has more clip potential, more pen, and faster total unload time than the Lorraine, and won't be HE'd in the front

calm stratus
#

50b gun is pretty bad lol

quasi mirage
#

50b gun is great. Accurate + good pen+ 1200 dmg

calm stratus
#

One of the worst pens of tier 10 heavies

wise moth
#

50B gun and T57 are nearly identical moron

quasi mirage
#

the only diff is 0.5 second interclip lol. And thats cancelled by reverse speed

calm stratus
#

Except T57 has better stats

neat bison
#

the 57 heavy's grind is better imo
but both tanks are different due to the playstyles
one is a full fledged support while the other is a flanker
sure one can do the other's job but why would you?
its preference m80s

calm stratus
#

Why reverse if you can take a hit?

wise moth
#

T57 turret isn't very strong

calm stratus
#

Better than 50b

wise moth
#

50 B turret when properly played I find bounces just as many if not more shots

quasi mirage
#

Anyway @neat bison does your name fit what you should do?

calm stratus
#

@quasi mirage as much as yours

wise moth
#

And especially in CQB, the 50 B bounces more. When I 1v1 mediums, the 50 B will bounce a shot or two when reloading, but the 57 won't

quasi mirage
#

yeah its prob a bit less bounces but when a 50b is rushing to you yuo will troll bounce so many times?

#

@calm stratus yeah im sure a player with 70% and 3k avg dmg in a non op tier X tank is a wannabe

neat bison
#

maybe you should stop jacking off to platoons buddy boy you seem to be flexin muh 70% WR dis tank sucks mentality

quasi mirage
#

I DONT EVEN PLATOON MUCH i have 13% platoon rate lol

timid bison
#

I've gotten so stupid bounces on the amx turret. Fully gray armor, and it bounces.

neat bison
#

RNG makes dumb surprises
sometimes you bounce on a completely paper tank and other times you cant hit the broadside of a barn from the inside

calm stratus
#

But I do prefer not having HE spammed into my side by mediums

wise moth
#

The 50 B's turret isn't entirely paper. The mantlet is an autobounce and covers a huge amount of the turret front when the gun is depressed

quasi mirage
#

and you can also elevate the gun when reversing back a hill

timid bison
#

T57 turret I get trolled less

neat bison
#

but one things for sure
until the bring the 50 100's extra shell back and improve the 50 120's horrific 18 clip sec reload, Im not playing the french heavies
I like the 50b but not nearly enough that I'd sacrifice my sanity for one

#

SHHHHH

wise moth
#

50 100 is still good; I play that in tier 8 tournies to great success, and 50 120 is still amazing. If you can't handle the reload, then you're doing it wrong

#

Sure French tanks take some more finesse than their American counterparts, but they're so much rewarding

calm stratus
#

So is T54E1

neat bison
#

I dont like it
doesnt mean its bad though
the gun's very meaty but I just ooh... Pierre LOAD THE SHELLS FASTER, QUICKER

calm stratus
#

And that was actually fun

neat bison
#

AMX 50 100: exists
T49: its free real estate

oh and uh the other reason why I went for T57 line first... T49

#

I dunno theres just something attractive about punishing fellow lights for pushing too hard

wise moth
#

When it comes to the, tier 8's, I'm not going to pick a side; since I like the T69, T49, and 50 100 a lot

calm stratus
neat bison
#

well now to another tank
the M41 Bulldog
is it me or is thing just a comet with light tank "camouflage"

faint iron
#

Naw, just hit the fat cheeks. Lol. It gets a lucky bounce every once and awhile and can bounce a few med shots from far away but not much else

calm stratus
#

Can't do that if it's behind stuff

wise moth
#

You can't hide the cheeks if you want to shoot

neat bison
#

the M41 is a brilliant medium
but at light tanking its uh...
its a joke
you get spotted earlier and your camo is unreasonably bad for a light

besides, your playstyle screams "medium" due to the fantastic RoF of the gun, its great at everything that does not involve spotting

#

but for aggro hill farming, its great
it defo feels like a comet with no turret armor

faint iron
#

I love my 57, but the 50B is far more versatile and can get itself out of sticky situations

calm stratus
#

None of that actually matters when teams keep being garbage

neat bison
#

cough Asia server worst server cough

calm stratus
#

Neither can solo carry a team of baboons who do 700 damage in a Jageru

neat bison
#

oh we have the same here
except those jagerus manage to fire three shots and deal 0 damage

calm stratus
#

And 700 damage in a 183

How does a 183 do only 700 damage?

noble moss
#

HESH fail

#

or 2 of them

calm stratus
#

Literally no way, it would splash for 400-550

#

I have experience

depends on what you hit

#

and where

400 splash

turret ring of an E-100?

or maybe a low damage AP?

IS4 is kinda venerable to HE. I like to run a bunch of HE in my tier nine and ten TDs so I can HE splash their turret roofs

cool, i got top gun emil what to do

quasi mirage
#

uh max roll 183 plus super steep angle on lightly armored tank can mean 700 dmg with max roll

Hi guys do u think that if leopard 1 have 80mm frontal turret armor instead of 54mm Will be op?

@quasi mirage angle doesn't affect damage lol

No. That’s still a pretty easy pen @lusty bolt

How is Chinese td t9/10 compared to 8?

@calm stratus ik that. Im saying it has to be thin armor to limit the amount of dmg blocked but the angle is steep enough that the HE can't pen

Please explain the DPM on the Tier 9 B-C 25 t AP. If you take the mag reload time and the shell time into a 60sec time frame for amount of shots per min then times by the amount of damage AP or HE shells do it doesn't match the total DPM posted. My numbers have the lower gun doing more DPM but the game says otherwise as does blitzstars. Someone please explain this or tell me how am I doing the math wrong. In other words I think the DPM numbers it shows are wrong for this tank.

quasi olive
#

Who wants to go commit Move to Brussels?

wise moth
#

@reef pelican The way DPM is calculated for autoloaders with N shells per magazine is like this: 60*Alpha*N/((N-1)*Interclip+Magazine Reload)

#

Basically, you take the total time it takes to reload and fire one magazine, divide by the number of shells in the magazine to find the average time to fire one shell, divide that into 60 to find RPM, then multiply by damage per shot

#

So for the Bat Chat AP with the 100mm gun, with no vents and provisions, the calculation looks like this:

reef pelican
#

@wise moth I know but the numbers I come up with are lower than those DPM posted for this tank. Both in game and on blitzstars. I checked other tanks they are jsut fine.

wise moth
#

6 seconds to unload the magazine + 18s to load the new magazine divided by 3 shells in the clip = 8s per shell = 60/8 = 7.5 RPM. 7.5 RPM * 310 alpha = 2325 DPM

reef pelican
#

And the lower gun has more dpm than the higher gun for this tank

wise moth
#

@reef pelican It's possible you're double counting the interclip reload. Remember it only takes (N-1)*interclip to fire a magazine, not N*interclip

reef pelican
#

and that doesnt match what the game says the dpm is

wise moth
#

@reef pelican The game adjusts the DPM calculation depending on your loadout

#

Running Vents and provisions will cause the game to show a higher DPM than the base DPM number since the game will then calculate the effective DPM with those included

reef pelican
#

Fr lower gun I come up with 2220.394 DPM the game says 2419

wise moth
#

@reef pelican With what loadout? Is that with food provisions and vents, or none, or some combination of both?

reef pelican
#

I am using those numbers to do my calculations

#

I come up with a different number for DPM than they have there

wise moth
#

@reef pelican I got the same number as the game; and now I know your mistake

#

Just as I suspected, you're calculating it as 4*2+16.32 for the total time it takes to fire and reload the magazine

reef pelican
#

yes

wise moth
#

You should be doing 3*2+16.32. The first shell in the magazine takes 16.32s to load, then you only need to cycle 3 times total at 2.0s to fire off the rest

#

It goes Fire, cycle, Fire, cycle, Fire, cycle, Fire, reload

#

You only need to count the interclip cycle time 3 times, not 4

reef pelican
#

hmm ok I see where I went wrong now

#

Thank you for your time

Guys is the kv 3 betta or the is

KV has more usable armour
IS is faster

#

Which one is cheaper tho

twilit wigeon
#

both are the same(close enough) price

inner raptor
#

What about their firepower

twilit wigeon
#

uses same top gun, same dpm

inner raptor
#

Which one have more pen and which one more dmg

twilit wigeon
#

they used the same guns for their top modules

inner raptor
#

Oh

twilit wigeon
#

they have the same damage and dpm and pen

inner raptor
#

Even though the IS is faster it's still not as fast as a light

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

twilit wigeon
#

no
but it is faster than the KV-3
but you sacrifice armour for better maneuverability

inner raptor
#

But can still get outmanuvered by lights

twilit wigeon
#

same is said with KV-3
but KV-3 has more survivability than IS
but the IS has a overall better grind, especially at its tier 9 tank

inner raptor
#

Thx for the tip

#

So im getting the IS

wraith breach
#

IMO Mobility > Armour

bold zenith
#

Meds > Heavies

wraith breach
#

The KV-3’s armour is mediocre at best against top tiers, and the IS bounces bottom tiers without issues.

#

The Mle 49 is awesome though. Good gun depression, armour and DPM, it’s fantastic and can carry better than the Rev can.

#

What’s important is you are running a tank that can hold a position. The IS can do it better than the KV-3 IMO.

Anyone ever seen a log or tracker of all the assorted buff/nerfs a tank has gone through over the years?

Hello, i don't know where to ask this question, but my clan mates said to ask in the discord server.

On my other account, I remember unlocking and playing the scavenger. But when I returned from a bit long of inactivity, it went away including some of the tanks on my garage that have been removed from the tech tree.

On my main, I also remember getting the other 2 sisters of the kuro, the t4 td and t5 mt ones, but they are also gone.

I wonder what happened to them because they just disappeared and I am sure that I didn't sold them. And we cant say that they were removed from the game since some people are still using them.

#

Maybe there is a way to talk to a representative from wargaming and discuss this problem.

@solid gate I'm at the KV-3 at the moment, I'm glad I already got the guns from the IS, saved me alot of time

KV-4 was a huge disappointment when I got it :(

#

Too slow and the gun doesn't do anything

#

Ended selling it off cause it ruined my wr

#

I'm fine with Kv-1 and Kv-2 as good heavys

#

I am currently grinding the French light tank line. Am at the tier 7 amx.

#

Can anybody say if the line gets better?

Because the tier 7 amx feels like a downgrade to the tier 6 amx

@solid gate good luck, mate... The KV-4 will be a tough one to grind

I'm still at the KV-3, it's not that bad but I just need to play the KV-4 right, hull down in it is great... Very nice turret

#

Is the amx 13 90 faster than amx 12 t?

fallow venture
#

@solid gate I think same mobility, but both ways, it's still good

#

I have the BC 25t ap at the moment it's fun

solid gate
#

OK and what about the acceleration?

#

Does the 13 90 accelerate as fast as 12 t?

supple dome
#

The 1390 is faster than the 12t in terms of acceleration and handling imo

solid gate
#

Nice👌

fallow venture
#

The BC 25t ap, it could use a very little acceleration buff

supple dome
#

Especially with an engine boost. It’s downsides are low DPM and Slow aim time. Though its aim is troll and allows you to make very good snapshots, the Pen is great and the armor is certainly troll due to its small size. But I wouldn’t say it’s well armored. Good depression on it too. But the DPM is ridiculous. Could even use a little buff.

solid gate
#

I was worried cause the amx 13 75 accelerated slower than the 12 t

fallow venture
#

I enjoyed unloading on heavies in my 13 90, it was fun and you were like punishing them... And even more fun when you have 4 shells with 2 seconds per shot in tier 9

solid gate
#

@supple dome OK thanks but about the gun. Is 170 pen enough or should I add the calibrated shells?

supple dome
#

I didn’t need calibrated shells at all on 13 90. It needs the faster reload so go with the vents.

solid gate
#

But autoloader don't have faster reload

supple dome
#

The 1390 definitely needs support though. But it’s a great scout with a good support gun.

#

It has vents, that gives it slightly faster reload and better handling plus you can spot more.

fallow venture
#

You might need calibrated shells tho, but it'll only help you with the lower plates of certain heavies

solid gate
#

OK nice as longs it acceleration is good and gun is nice

#

Callib shells even for sides and rear?

supple dome
#

Calibrated shells aren’t needed. It’s Ap can handle most things, only the Is5 and Vk100p can be an issue though un angled it’s AP still goes through. But if you’re in front of super heavies in an amx1390 than you’re playing it wrong.

#

To give you an idea, at less then a 10 degree angle it’s AP can pen the Vk100ps lower plate with AP and no calibrated shells. Same with is5s lower plate.

solid gate
#

Nah I play the amx as assassins

#

Late game I like to do the "circle of death" on heavys and Tds

fallow venture
#

No you don't need Cshells to go through sides, @solid gate
@supple dome, it's in certain situations when you must go upfront with a super heavy

supple dome
#

I know mate.

solid gate
#

However I need to accel faster than they can turn turet and torso

supple dome
#

That’s what I meant :p.

fallow venture
#

@solid gate you can circle and IS-5 but you'll have to trick them to shoot every two circles or so

#

Which is easy cuz you're small

solid gate
#

Amx 12 t was great with my record being over 3k dmg

#

But the tier 7 is meh

#

The key is to circle but not too fast so they can't shoot

fallow venture
#

Some heavies have good traverse but with something like KV-4, you can circle it forever

#

What provisions do u use on your amx?

Unlike French heavies or the IS-8

wraith breach
#

It certainly does NOT need a buff.

#

As is. they can rush TD’s and completely wreck them with one shot and a ram, and all while on the move.

#

Gotta have some balance in there.

#

Yea, it’s because it’s a DERP tank, it’s not supposed to be accurate.

#

But it is accurate enough to hit stuff on the move while at close range

#

I’m wrong? Yea because that makes sense. It’s happened to me on a MULTITUDE of occasions.

@hexed wagon watch your language.

wraith breach

Not like I have experience or anything in tanks with paper armour.

And calm down. Go play minecraft or something for the time being...

wraith breach
#

You can, and it does happen quite often. Got snapshotted over 200m away in a borsig. It’s insane.

#

And that happens FREQUENTLY.

#

Because it’s a TD. With good gun handling. It BETTER be able to snapshot.

#

Well in that case of logic, the SU-152 is terrible also, which it certainly isn’t.

#

more accurate, but it misses shots by a county mile about 1/3 shots I find.

#

It’s a high-risk tank for sure, but when applied correctly it’s just insane.

#

Yea. For that reason, it should not be getting full TD damage.

#

To be able to flank, get into concealment and not be spotted and be able to one-shot tanks is just ridiculous with the speed that machine has.

#

The smasher is OP, but the KV-2 is balanced by garbage armour AND garbage speed.

#

Like the SU-152 is, along with the Rhm and ISU

#

eh, makes sense, WG knows that a lot of people play it for the memes

#

Well that’s what the tank is. A LT with a howitzers gun. No, having the current damage is what we call BALANCE, and changing that would destroy gameplay.

#

Tanks with HESH is tricky, I don’t ask them to boost the alpha to the 183 do I? It’s part of the risk.

#

Yea, that’s called dispersion my friend. Don’t shoot HEAT at tracks. Ever.

#

especially with the crap dispersion the T49 has

#

All I’m saying is that the tank has an on average 59% WR in capable hands. It does not need a buff at that state.

#

And that statement is backed by..?

#

You don’t get a 59% WR by having “luck” as your only reason. It doesn’t work like that. The ISU-152 is lower than that, and that has more derp and better gun stats.

#

your WR in it is a 50.00% dead-on. That means you’re not playing it properly, as most people can do much better with it.

#

It’s not a bad tank if you’re a bad player in it.

#

The statistics show that it’s consistently doing well.

#

59% is not chance. That’s a pattern. You don’t get lucky that many times.

what is snapshot?

tacit bolt
#

IMHO T49 is slightly OP on PC due to autoaim..it can snap shot easily but on touch control it is just another balance tank with some hit and miss..that why when played LT or TD on T7 or T8 i just enable same control mode to avoid PC players' T49

The bat chat literally has a 105mm gun it should have 350 alpha

I think it's been a reasonable trend for autoloaders to have lower alpha damage than majority of other tanks from their class, it's a balancing factor

@dense horizon i will pick jackson any day..use the dpm with nice caliber gun together with mobility to support medium in mid range or use as hill fighter and optimize it's gun depression and turret armor if needed for close range or just be lazy and snipe at the rear, your pick..i replaced nerfed old t49 (t67) with jackson as seal clubber tank

@full kiln and I am starting to think you have never played WoT. First, artillery does not involve skill (especially lefh). Second, by the time the light reaches artillery the team would have gathered all around it trying to protect it. Third it is very annoying getting hit for 500 every 30 secs. Also there are atleast 60-80 SPGs in the waiting queue

rigid thunder
#

The only arty I know which involves skill is the BC 155 55

inland osprey
#

The amazing thing is I can play WoT PC and WoT Blitz simultaneously
If I'm in an arty

pastel drum
#

Autoloading arty is probably the best yes. As you have to slit your shells emongst the enemy team as then you wont't be doing anything for a long time. But that still does not change the fact that you only need to click

inland osprey
#

Click and go

rigid thunder
#

No the 155 58 is the magazine arty

pastel drum
#

@rigid thunder yes, that is why I said autoloading

rigid thunder
#

The 155 55 needs the player to know how to utilize the very good mobility, and use it to cover up for the weak gun (only a 155mm for a tier 9 arty)

vivid lagoon
#

He said 155 55 for a start

pastel drum
#

@vivid lagoon i do not get what you mean "to start"

rigid thunder

He's referring to the fact that what I said earlier wasn't "155 58" but "155 55"

He was talking about the BC 155 55 and then someone brought in the 155 58

Oh, sorry did not see the numbers. I though we were taling about the tier 10 - the autoloading one the whole time. My bad

inland osprey

Well, an 155mm arty at tier 9 does need some skill.

pastel drum
#

@inland osprey like what?

rigid thunder
#

The bc 155 55 lol

inland osprey
#

How to maximize damage potential with such a small gun with good accuracy

rigid thunder
#

At least the 155 58 has a 3 shot magazine, albeit with a 10s intra-clip reload

pastel drum
#

Every artillery player focuses on weakly armored target, or on focusing on helping the team in a mid range combat. @inland osprey

#

The only skill an SPG player needs is positioning which is leaned very easy by looking at enemy or allied arty players

rigid thunder
#

You're forgetting estimating shell travel time

pastel drum
#

@rigid thunder most arty players ( I once was ) shoot at camping/ stationary targets.

inland osprey
#

And heavies usually camp at spots where arty can't shoot.

#

If they could, the heavies will usually move around to avoid fire, so it is crucial to lead shots.

#

@inland osprey as a former arty player I know quite a lot about positioning so you can not beat me at my own game

inland osprey
#

And that's where the skill factor comes into play.
If you have better skills in arty, of course you are less likely to be beaten.

#

Arty does indeed require skill to play

pastel drum
#

Ok. I stopped playing artillery a year and a half ago. And got myself an OBJ430U, FV4005, Leopard 1 and Rhm. Panzerwager. Also positioning is not a skill, as you go there every time you are on the same map. Positioning is only a skill for lights meds heavies and TDs. Arty may have indirect line of shot and still (very unlikely) one shot you.

inland osprey
#

Nope
If you stay at the same spot every time, you could get blown up by counter-battery fire.

pastel drum
#

With light tanks you have to adapt to the enemy - for example if they have a wheeled light tank, you have to realize that the wheelie will get in position first and if you rush too, you will get spotted and killed while the french light survives and gets all the spotting. That is why there is a thing called counter -artillery where arty try to blind shoot each other on the most obvious spots. And the most obvious spots are the best (duh).

full kiln
#

@pastel drum well, i have played both PC and blitz. But i was just thinking about arty in blitz. Im quite sorry if i had intruded on anything but I have only played 1.7k battles so i dont really have experience in battle

Well yes, light tanks do require skill.

full kiln
#

I mean, it just feels quite unfullfilling not seeing arties in game

A lot of people have been saying that lights have the highest skill cap, is this true?

I play lights quite well though

#

huh. i just really think about it but ok 👍

I don't really want arty in blitz tho.
We only have 7 tanks per team, and I don't want only 6 proper tanks and the other one missing half of its shots while waiting for a half a minute reload.

Even when I was a 53% WR nub I was able to put up ~2700 damage per battle back in the day, and I have never come close to achieving a higher DPB in any tier VIII since, even though I’m a much stronger player now

#

@brisk orbit Camp in the usual TD spots, and slam people with huge 640 damage shots while remaining unspotted. The turret means you will never have to break camo net to shoot, making you hard to spot. Later in the game, with the huge alpha, turret, and small profile, you can also play somewhat aggressively, but you’ll still need to be careful since 1100 HP and HE prone armor means it won’t last long in a straight fight

It can work great as a close support tank behind heavys with the turret. You have to be a bit careful to make sure you shot in between enemy reloads but once mastered this is a great way to play turreted tds

They use the statistics gathered during this public test to balance the tank, and they let you guys discuss your thoughts on it here on discord (and also on Facebook I believe), but they don’t take people’s opinions into account for actual balance purposes; they only look at the numbers from good players
