Where did he shoot you?
@glass relic i have increased armor as well
He says the front which means lowerplate is where hes penning him also enhanced armor doesnt actually increase armor thickness
Hmm that's.. weird, getting yourself penned by a T92 thrice in an IS4 frontally, without him shooting ATGMs?
I could see it happening if he was on a downward slope making his front flat on to the t92 otherwise he kept getting hammered in that lp
But then again the APCR is a troll when comes into sloped things even tho it got a good angle to shoot from.
Yeah the apcr round itself is not reliable whatso ever so im betting he was getting penned in his LP since is4s is surprisngly very very weak CS also plays a factor in it
@glass relic in E5 not in is4
A very special look at the original Hunnicutt collection, with focus on the T29 series of prototype tank designs. Presented by NACC Curator Rob Cogan. Originally streamed live on 13 May 2020 on my Twitch.tv channel. Support the NACC by following on social media:
Check out U....
Hmm even though you're not angling the 92E1 shouldn't have be able to easily pen you, but who does stay stationary anyway, the lfp is sloped making it much more harder to pen without CS but then again if he does uses CS he might've pulled the shots on your lfp
Im betting the t92 was running CS since at this point you have to run CS in order to get your hits off in T92
Hahah yeah CS is a go to thing on T92 now.
Which is a win win the slower the reload the easier the kill
:v oh..
It's still quite annoying what's so ever tho, lel.
Its easier to weed out now though just drive a med and tunnel it its no longer bounce proof and will have an awful time facing off
Well unless the meds are your teammates and not you, so... It's a gamble on who's better at using their tanks.. before you'll get slapped by it.
I much prefer to fight t92s rather than sheridans
In terms of overall tanks performance, same I'd take T92E1 because of it's low tank profile
I would choose t92 alot of the time but sheridan is just more fun to drive that acceleration is just too good
Having good mobility and acceleration is always fun.
Go for E100 or E 50 M? Currently at Panther.
Panther branches into Panther II and Tiger II
E 50 M imo@abstract scarab
How's the stock grind for Panther II and E 50? @hollow belfry
I have Jagdtiger and 55A so I can grind free xp if I need to.
Panther II stock is decent
Free exp the gun and turret on the E 50 unless you want to suffer. A K.w.K. 43 L/71 in t9... ehh
Gotcha. Thanks. Also, Panther II got a buff recently right? It's not so bad anymore?
Panther 2 is great now, meadsy just did a nice video on it @abstract scarab
Thank you.
@thick trout Just watched it, well played on Hellas.
Someone got my subtle advertising š
Meadsy lying saying I was probably using rammer when it was just 81% crew š
Lol
E 50 M is def a great tank worth the grind
I love it
Especially after the Panther and Panther II buffs
I'm currently crying because of how slow the E50 feels š
Stock it's pretty sluggish, yeah
I've only got the tracks to upgrade and I still hate it lol
Im still on the road
E50 stock grind is the worst
Who remembers when the BDR G1 B had 350+ view range with attachments š and insane DPM
Got nerfed days after. This was right after French line release I believe. It got sealclubbed the F outta it.
Lol, yes
Was it really only 350? I thought it was 400. I may be remembering this horribly wrong though.
@hollow notch around thereabouts. But yeah it was crazy.
is there any way we can get hybrid premium tanks? Like the dracula and helsing?
$$$ at Christmas
welp
God, the depression of the cannon of the WZ-120 𤢠I was not ready
How do i get this tank called the "BT-7 Art"?
It's a collector tank
Damit
You can't get it unless it comes back into the shop in an offer
Ah ok
Though I got it for free like 2 years ago during the New Years event
Where if you logged in during this 1-2 week period and played a battle you automatically get it for free
@iron gulch P43 ter and bis have decent upper plates but the turret armor sucks. Very annoying.
dont they have a trolly turret, i pen sometimes but other times it gets blocked
Itās very unreliable. Shouldnāt expect any bounces
On flat ground yes it is unreliable. I have more luck driving up a small hump, hiding the lower plate and angle the upper plate even more. (Not advisable when seeing big gun. Just pray and run)
Do you guys think FV4202 derserve a Buff ?
@native otter , turret armor buff would be good
A minor turret buff to make it more viable when using your depression will make the tank more relevant. It doesnt need huge buffs, the tank is in a decent place, just needs a little love.
We dont want a big turret buff, otherwise it will become too strong with the turret, gd and upper front hull
If you think, that t28 Incredible is the best
Best tier X? E 50 M, STB, T-62A?
there is no best among those
a matter of choice here
but the STB is quite nice
it is a leopard 1 + decent armor
T-62A got good turret armor and is a dpm beast and it got its depression buffed
E50M is a heavium
but i really don't have a say in it
i am still at E50
bur it is armor is good if you wiggle and it is a good ramming machine
Guys maybe wotb need to add more detail to theyre tanks like as a exampel: the fuel tanks from the maus at the back of the hull
Consider that itās a mobile game lol (not meant to be realistic details)
But it is not much tho....cmon the cobi maus tank has even the fuel tanks...
It would just be an attachment probably
But it is a big detail so...it need to be worth it thoš
I dont hope so a attachmentā¹ļø
this is a discussion channel not a suggestion channel lol and yes it would be an attachment, WG wants to make their $ ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Cmon man WG did good with update 7.0 and it isnt even released and now maybe theyre gone plan to make a fuel tank attachment for maus because of what you said inhere that would be stupidš¢
I doubt WG looks at this channel lol
Like i didnt hear anyone cry about patch 7.0 yet did you?
they dont, and if it does come it will be an attachment like any other one costing gold
What does Patch 7 have to do with Maus getting a fuel tank attachment
I hope they wont see ur message than thoš³
WG doesnāt care too much... They would make it cause they could or they wouldnāt cause they donāt want to/decide against it
Destrier no dont support WG making the game even more pay2winš„“
But still WG did good in 7.0 if u ask my thošµ
im stating facts, there's a very very small chance they'll add it, and if they do there's no option but to make it an attachment
^
Btw about attachments...does maus have any optional attachments atleast?
Do you not even own the Maus?
I will own it in a few days and i have 313 camo soš¤ š„³
š get the tank before doing something like this then... and no quite sure
But does it have any optional attachments tho?
Maus already has 2 camos (I think(Legion and 313)) so itās not like itās lacking
No it does not
Is Legion E100?
Actionly i mean attachments @viral lodge ooofš
Either way that thing is also huge on a part of the tank that is a primary target.
Yes but ur armor and hull dancing is ur best friend thoš
either way if that barrel comes it will be an attachment ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Oh yesh my lovely baguette chat is buffed
I wonder if we will get hydropneumatic suspension
Both ATGMS need buffs
Is E100 a good tank? Iām 120k xp away from it and Iām really excited. Is it really a good tank? And can it defeat a maus? I have maus already
E 100 is a solid tank, it can be a bite more aggressive over Maus. And as to the question of whether it can defeat Maus is up to you.
E 100 has good Penetration, (not great but good enough for the damage) decent accuracy, and good durability. The shape is a bit boxy so angling the armor but not angling it too much is very important. Don't be afraid to use premium shells z the HEAT is pretty good as well in E 100.
guys, is the RU 251 better or fv301 new brit lights?
Ru251 is alright i would say its atleast a bit worse or on par with them
Ru251 is alright i would say its atleast a bit worse or on par with them
@solid gate thx ! i was like DAMN, is my grindin wasted????
guys, is the RU 251 better or fv301 new brit lights?
@devout ore RU 251 lives in my heart always
Wish FV4005 had the proper gun being 183MM with 0.38 accuracy.
Its sad to see that the FV4005 takes 6-9 seconds to fire its full magazine whilst being torn apart with HE shells by 2-3 shots depending on the tank. At least with a 183, you can aim and fire and back away. Not wait for your shells to load up.
Idk why WG canāt do what the JS4 used to have which is 2 guns, the poor 122mm and then the top 122mm.
Do the same with FV4005, choose from a 123mm Autoloader or Her Majestyās main gun 183mm.
Last time i looked, the tank sitting outside Bovington has a 183mm....
183 guns just don't fit in blitz. You can see the deathstar suffering because of it. Why give the 4005 the same fate.
Then get ready to hear more unsatisfied customer's scream @chrome raven
Just gonna copy-paste from balance-changes channel since this seems more appropriate here:
Pz II J needs an update
It got power crept so bad, with other tanks getting better armor/hp/mobility/pen and II J was left so far behind...
I was low-key expecting it to suck, but at least to be able to bounce some shots from the front - and it does bounce two shots, just to get circled and killed without any ability to defend itself...
The only thing I'm happy with the bundle I spent my money on is the fact that it's a super rare tank. In all other aspects, I didn't get my money's worth. Worst mobility. Worst penetration. Worst damage. Mediocre armor that loses any effectiveness when enemy switches to gold. It's basically like driving a cardboard box with a wooden plank as front armor, throwing shoes as a weapon.
"I spent my money on a tank that's paying for years of sealclubbing and I want it to get buffed now"
What a shame
Imagine adding M50 ontos into blitz
@fast compass . The 183 is supposed to do a metric tone of damage and the maximum on this game is over 900. On pc /console it does well over a 1000 and its hesh round should be able to knock out a vehicle with 1 hit yet alas WG blitz does not do that for some random reason. I shot using my 183 and low rolled 680....6..8...0... :/. Wtf .
The armour on the FV215B 183 should be the same armour on pc/console to make it more of a harder target to hit yet WG for some random reason almost halfād the armour XD.
Its a big shame to see this both armour and Mains yet the 183 is still a main gun thats effect upon correct uses. You say why give the FV4005 the same fate. Well if you can aim, fire and get behind cover instead of waiting 6-9 seconds (thats for aiming time and loading shells 2-3) then why not. At least you can take a shot and get back, not wait to be hit dealing Badger/maus type dmg per shot knowing that even tier I can hit your turret. The so called āpeek a booā tactic cant be used with the FV4005 unless you wish for exposing your turret for 6-9 seconds from an autoloader, or wait 3-4 seconds to aim and fire a 183MM gun and back off straight away for 17-18 seconds.
the 4005 would be too versatile and rule as it happened in wot.
a 183 with mobility would be even more op than atgms lol
With a turret that can be destroyed in 2-3 hits depending on the caliber...yea...not really āOPā more āVulnerableā yet at least it would perform better.
if you depend on armor while using tds you shouldnt be talking about balance
@chrome raven The 183 is broken. Anything that can hit for 930 let alone 1300 will just ruin every single game with camping. It needs it's HESH removed and normal pen needed to the ground
i mean the fv183 is useless right now just rng simulator
everyone knows the armor of a td is concealment
Well your stating that because it would be a touch more mobile, it be āOPā but the fact is, if you ācampā then youād perform the same as a FV215B 183 but in brawling, youd get torn up. At least in the 2nd wave type so 2-3 vehicles back then you can be more effective.
As i said @thick trout that aināt the case, i get low rolls 24/7 and Hesh rounds donāt work that great unless you hit square.
Plus people when they see āTDā they automatically think ācampingā. If you use a āTDā to brawl then depending on the tank, you can be supportive.
Its just a shame really to see a very unusual tank like the FV4005 to take a turn for the worse.
bro i have never said camping i said concealment which is very different. if you know how to use concelament you can flank unespotted
Camo does not matter when you are in proxy spotting range
Well concealment is pretty much having to ācampā as people can spot you in mid range.
And the 183 actually has fairly good dpm if it comes down to a knife fight
i feel like im talking to a wall...
learn to use concealment...
you can move around the map unspotted.
just learn the maps.
Yea very funny @glacial leaf. Might as well add WTF E100 to the game .
well just add the fv4005 STAGE 2 lol
Well whats that in the game then...
stage 2(has 183 mm gun)
Word for word the same as the title in Blitz, ...our survey says....
look under the images...
almost all have stage 2 written there...
you played yourself
The stage 1 is the same thing, only without the turret covering
Yes because WG dont name it correctly.
no its bcs they are different tanks omg
dont you get it?
Google Vs WG.
@glacial leaf one has an outer shell on the turret(stage 2) while the other does not(stage 1)
@chrome raven If your entire argument is based off you getting low rolls then please get off this server. HESH rounds work on pretty much anything, splashing for 500+ is more than enough to deter the average player from moving. Noone does anything except camp in the 183 except for maybe 2 or 3 players that I've seen. It's a horrible tank that ruins tier 10 and we don't need another 183
imagine the 4005 183 lol
flanks and heshes your rear sets you on fire too
I will take another 183 over atgms any day
atgms lower your dpm soo much
its like having 20 sec reload for 480 dmg
The fact is that the one on blitz is the exact same as the FV4005 Stage II yet with a 123. If you look at the design of both guns, they are the same but with a 123.
@thick trout i was talking about how the FV4005 should have optional guns put on it.
Yes, and all incoming damage to them is lowered to 0@glacial leaf
RuSh
Yea, and because it is one Sheridan vs 7.
Anyone fancy a WTF E100 to the game?
look im a heavy main and i ez bounce atgms just angle where you see he is aiming at lol
Just change nation of a Sheridan to russia. It would then make more sense
@chrome raven And I'm talking about how having one 183mm gun ruins tier 10 enough, and two would just make it worse
yep im done this guys still believes in russian bias
Xd nope. Just because ATGMs remind me of T80s
kpz 70 should have atgms its a very similar gun as the sheridan
And that obj looking tank with atgm. it1 is it or summot
Why did wg add such an unusual weapon being the Atgm to the game? Sll you need is it on a hill and it becomes an artillery xd
did someone maybe make a nice camo mod for wz120?
Umm
it takes a while to get wz121 so i want a nice look till that
what's the armor buff on the PantherII?
Anyone got some tips for the British tier 5 Crusader? It seems to be one of the worst lights I have come across (weak armor AND bad mobility). I'd rather not drop 20k free XP to get to the sherman and then the Comet. Thanks
Play on hills behind mediums. You have like 10 or 12 gun depression
Buff the IS 7's Gun so it does 800 Damage smh
@rigid totem the general trend with the mid tier british meds 5-7 (with cromwell at tier 6) is that you need to abuse ridgelines whenever you can, and you should make sure you arent trading with another tank where you cant continuously shoot them due to british mid tier tanks having low alpha, fast reload guns
After tier iv in UK, should I go for destroyers or heavies
If you choose tank destroyers, I reccommend going down the fv4005 line rather than the fv215b 183 line.
Ok and what if I go for heavies
The heavies are fun until carnarvon (cant get a hold of its playstyle)
The fv215b at tier ten is good but its been slightly overshadowed with the heavy hp buff
Ok ty everyone
@solid gate Best heavy is the IS 7
Is the Pz.II J bad?
Yes, bad Penetration, poor mobility, mediocre armor (doesn't hold up anymore with all the Penetration buffs on other tanks)
Whatās the difference between these pictures
I donāt understand when I drive this thing some people Call it a garbage truck, Either they mean itās a crappy tank or it somewhat looks like a garbage truck.
Will the Warhammer tank ever be available again?
I donāt know but Iām hoping they release the leman russ battle tank
Is that a MK.1 tank on steroids lol
If Iām correct this thing fires the same caliber as the vindicator
And that would mean it can fire AP rounds
Lol the playerbase would freak out more with that than with ATGMs lol
But hey it doesnāt fire missiles so itās balance š
I donāt think leman russ tanks are ever equipped with missiles so thatās impossible
With the right gun any tank can fire missiles
I guess pretty much yeah
waits for E-100 to receive ATGM gun
Oh god
They would probably never give a heavy tank a ATGM gun though
And for a good reason
like?
And like holy moly the player base would rip their hair off and go apes**t
chill dude
What
The whole point for ATGMs for the Sheridan and the T95 was to balance them as lightly armored tanks
but Chinese meds have such strong turrets
?
Just a dumb joke
The only tanks that will probably ever receive ATGM guns will be light tanks
T34 is on sale 70% off today, is it any good?
Wargaming is starting to remind me of valve
I think it is funny when some players say that the Sheridan in the hands of a good player is too op, but technically every tank is op in the hands of a good player
Thatās true
T34 is a good tier 8 @steep flicker. Good gun with accuracy, alpha and penetration. Has good gun depression and a strong turret.
Worth my gold i guess then
I hate it when I have to use my vindicators HE just cause two or 300 damage to the turret
I have the 1776 version of the t34
š®
Whats the difference
They look different?
Same tank, different look
i dont have any T34 š¦
Players complain that the ATGMs allow the Sheridan to fire over a hill; I see it as a means for a lightly armored tank to not peak and possibly get shredded
I got my t34 in black friday I think, pretty cheap
ArghI hate it when people tell me to drive a real tank when I drive a vindicator or predator.
I donāt often drive real tanks because real life sucks!
Is there a best tank
Thatās difficult to answer
keni otsu
Tog II
Shermans
Guys. Pls help me. Any tips for grinding the E100 line? I need ECSPEEEEEEE
š¤£
the E100 line is the most simple line to grind in the game right now
all the tanks are either very good or downright overpowered
Try to maintain a decent number of dmg each game and get a platoon buddy to help keep the wr up
all the tanks are either very good or downright overpowered
@calm inlet
Then why do I get 2-Magazined by a Leopard? (I just started grinding that line)---even if I'm angled and I have the Armour boost perk.. Thing
??? Leopard doesnāt even have a magazine
Yes it does. The Tier 5 Leopard german tank
VK 36.01 H is where the line starts getting good
The Tier 6-10ās are all extremely good. The Pz 4 G is alright, but its not a heavy tank
The t5 isn't a well armored tank
I know that
This is why I'm asking for help
I am struggling massively and I'm at 20 out of 25k XP
REEEE
Your pretty close, your gonna love the vk 36 it's armor is unpenable by t5s and t6s if u know how to do some angling
I don't think angling will help. It's still 100mm armour
It's 100mm at t6 where not many tanks can deal with that
And since a majority of players are new they won't know to attack it head on or shoot the cupola
True
Who wants The Legendary MS-10 from WoT also in WoTb ?
Does anyone know the best way to play the OBJ 268?
Mid-range, second line support. It's a good Medium Support.
The shell velocity is kinda low for long range play but the camo value and the mobility is nice.
Anyone give me advice on how to play T26E4 and Kpfpz 70?
Win more, die less.
T26E4 good front armor, most tanks at tier 7-8 canāt pen it, so go instantly front but no rush,
Kpfpz 70 imo..... yeah itās idk....
t26e4 armour only works if players are braindead to not see the massive weakspot on turret
Well guess what they are... and itās funny & plus itās not simple to hit the weakspot at itās turret if you keep moving out/in
T26E4 has terrible armor. But it does have Heavy Tank mobility, not that it's a good thing.
@radiant coral Agree
anyone know good guide for AT15?
It's good to use the gun arc around corners, try to keep the AA turret hidden as much as possible, it counts as primary armor and the loader happens to live there for some reason
hhhmmmm ok?
Try to permatrack your enemies as much as possible.
and watch out for high pen because they can all do dmg to you
What is this tank?
Hmmmmm I have an idea yessss how bout make the superconqueror tech tree like on pc yesssss so your game is less pay to win at every tier.
Any tips for the at 7 bc Iām having a hard time with it. It has a good gun but terrible speed and traverse and almost no armor. I say almost no armor bc of it Empire State Building size hatch
@solid gate vindicator ultramarine?
I think he knows what it is he is just questioning why the heck wargaming would add it
Idk what that tank is
Itās from Warhammer 40k
Interesting
They added it bc they signed a deal with the owners of war hammer 40k
Hmm I would put j screenshot of something I found but I wonāt itās not inappropriate I just donāt wanna be banned
Yes
This is an actual problem every time I go in battle with this thing, Not the performance but just the looks
That one player gets one shot by the garbage truck aka vindicator in 30 seconds
Yes
@solid gate
Whatās the yes meant?
?
You were like
YES on this meme
Yes as in yes itās true or completely accurate
Sorry I get pretty defensive when it comes to my favorite tanks performance
Oh fav tank?
Yup, I love the looks and the performance is pretty OK
Well I found the representation of wargaming... hmmmmmm 14 hours a bit to much?
Vindicator is too limited with the gun angles and the mobility to be my favourite tank, but it has a certain uniqueness to it
Thatās why I use the environment around me as my advantage
I like t22 and e50m and badger can burn in hell and I looooveeeeee fv4202 dat hesh
Wow....... the second I talk smack about 5.5 my message is insta deleted wow
You do know there are words that are auto filtered right
One word to not say related to Blitz: Sheridan
I used the 107mm gun on that thing. Nice gun even if it doesnāt have the āfunā factor.
russian tanks are the most satisfying lul
Then the KV-2 is like a T-150 with less armor, a bit faster, and better reload.
They did buff T-150 some time ago but that armor buff seems to have been power creeped or something by now. Would love for the old gal to get another buff. Maybe buff the reload. It doesnāt need to fire as fast as KV-2 but faster than it does now.
@willow bane Unless RNG isnāt on your side and you keep missing shots. Even when fully aimed in.
t26's spaced armor is super annoying
Piffff, you think thatās bad.
Vindicator is very easy to pen frontally
It's only difficult if you're taking pot shots
basically, there's a flat strip of extremely thin armor underneath the gun
if you have 150mm of AP pen, you can pen frontally without having to aim at the cupola
that means that most (not all, but most) Tier 7's can shoot standard ammo at it frontally and whip it
We need a tier x tank that can go faster than 65 kph
No
Why not?
You know itāll be a Sheridan 2
Well I mean just have the thing literally have only 20 mm armor and low health.
1.5k mabey
Iām planning to get a second tier 7. Iāve researched the comet and I am 8k research points from the IS. Everyone talks about how the IS is good but nobody really talks about the comet. Is the comet good and should pick comet or IS?
Also Is the jagdpanther good?
Jpanther good? No (the line gets better tho)
IS is fun
Comet is also fun
I did IS first and didn't regret it
Edit: BUT if u do comet rn you'll be set for British lights
Agreed ^^ I remember the Jpanther before the buff... it almost looked French 𤣠no armour at all. Now itās a beast!
The Thunder is actually a very enjoyable tank ngl, the speed and mobility is nice, and it matches the reload well. The added armor does help against some smaller caliber shells, and some larger like the SU-100Y and KV-2. Sidescraping works well sometimes, depending on the angle and situation. The reload is nice are 17.7 seconds, allowing you to move to the next position and being reloaded by the time you get there. Only downside is having 1,060 health, becuase at tier 6, 122mm can basically wipe half your health away quickly. Not to mention tier 7.
its true, the HP sucks
@thorn glacier lol thx for the advice. I think comet is good because youāll get a head start on the centurion but I think Iām going to stick with the IS
I love the tiger 1. The mobility on it is so nice.
is the leopard PTA bad, or am I just trash, or both?
depends
thanks, i understand now
A bit of both @sturdy bane
what is the best tank 4 rating?
is4
the kv-2 is the most satisfying tank in the game change my mind
@sleek olive Welcome to World of Bias
pz2 j is godlike :p
wheeze
ELC EVEN 90 in blitz when lol
guys i want to buy a premium tank, what do u recommend ?
@kindred bone Depends on play style they say. Also what type of tank you do best in.
Pz II Jās high armor and low pen is like the dude who drives a huge lifted truck to compensate
Guys how did / do you deal with VK 36's crappy engine? (The tier 6 heavy)
I'm asking because it's very very slow. Even for a heavy (in my opinion
If you have it fully upgraded then it isn't slow at all. Decent acceleration and a 51 kmph top speed if I'm not wrong@elder flume
I am talking about the stock engine
Forgot to mention that. Sorry
You can't even get to a good spot because the fookin battle will end
Its really a annoying sometimes
And no you're not wrong
Just deal with it or use free exp
@elder flume sell it get rid of it lol if you can't stand it(just like me) :)
@solid gate I prefer crusader and the British heavy line kinda sucks at the lower tiers but once you get to 7 I think they get quite interesting
Ill just give you a short, opinionated answer.
Its hard to answer that when I have no idea what you like/what you usually play/how willing you are to lose credits.
For random battles right now, I personally believe the Fv4202 is more enjoyable to play than the fv215b. The fv215b is good, but I think its suffering a little as a result of all the heavy HP buffs.
The fv4202 is more expensive to drive than the fv215b though. The tier 6, 7 (debatable), 8 and 9 mediums are better than their heavy counterparts imo.
I can go more in depth about the lines if you want, but I thought I would give you the short answer. @ person i cant tag because he has custom characters
@solid gate
Done. Tagged em
Tysm everyone
If you want to tag someone with custom characters, just use the suggestions of Discord once you entered "@" (don't forget to leave a space before the "@") or (if applicable) tag their discord name or server name if they don't include custom characters
How to use FV4004 conway effectively
@ashen monolith if you can't stand a VK 36.01 H you aren't going to enjoy playing a lot of T6 heavies lol
why is Cromwell B just plain better than the tech tree Cromwell?
everything on both tanks are the same, except gun depression
-8 and -13 makes a lot of difference
not to mention that you can depressed your gun through the back hull in Cromwell B
Itās a good tank. I only have the b.
I want a good tier iv tank destroyer, which one should I buy? (non premiums)
Uhm... I donāt know, since 5.5 I think that all tier four tanks are bad... but I reckon the M8A1 or the Hetzer will do, though I am only guessing
Ok thx
Yeah they are bad lol
Why would you Want a good tier iv td that specifically
Low tiers arenāt interesting aside from grinding
@hollow belfry agreed
is the leopard PTA bad, or am I just trash, or both?
@sturdy bane leopard pta isn't bad but it is not wonderful
It is good
You need to be sneaky and try to sneak shots
Don't dive into a trade unless you are able to win it
It honestly only lacks gun depression in my opinion
If it had more GD it would be more flexible but that is already leopard 1
I wasn't a fan of my Leo pta I wanted to get it over and done with ASAP so I just ignored the engine upgrades and went straight for the Leo 1
I was about to buy it, but grinding another line atm
@exotic ore short answer: it's premium
@ashen monolith makes 69% sense, i guess
yay they made the leopard 1 useless
@lyric copper what makes you say that?
New Brit light is just as fast, nearly has same accuracy also with 105mm he pen
so why play the leopard when there is a better alternative with high tier HE pen
Because said alternative is still pretty big has terrible standard pen easy to pen if well aimed
@hollow belfry don't get me wrong, Leo 1 is an amazing tier X and 100% worth the grind
āTerrible standard penā
The Vickers has 10 less standard pen
245 APCR is literally worse than the sheridans pen in some situations
itās the same as the T-62A
245 pen si med level...nerf it to 210-220 like all the lights
Do I get muted if I don't talk about vehicles?
there is a chance so why risk it
Hmmmmm... "vehicles"
Iāve came to question if the VK 36.01 H is worth getting or the Churchill VII is better. Churchill VII have good armor and a decent gun while VK 36.01 H have good front armor and a good gun. Which is better?
Vk
Is the American t34 good?
yea and the bundle is an amazing deal @solid gate
Ik there is a tank that looks or is that tank, were I can't pen the front of the hull. U know what tank?
what? the hull on the 34 is quite weak if that is what you are saying
The one with a big turret and a small gun?
not really a small gun... do you have a screenshot?
I'll take one -.-
Hull armor?
pretty big lower plate but the upper part is really steeply sloped
62a definitely
T62 I think. I'm not a light tank guy. As u can see on my profile pic
Should I go for is 7 or wz (the td)
is7, wz doesnt seem good
I have heard that IS is a meh tank, bc of the ammo rack
no it is a solid tank. yes the ammo rack is a weakspot tho
Is it rare to see a iron gigant?
Bc IS is low. That meaning that you can shoot down at it, right?
Is7 is fine for random battles
It needs a hp buff in my eyes
anyone agree that the grille needs a buff? pen buff specifically (especially AP and HE)
@solid gate I second this
Ding dongšļø
Lol grille is fine how it is, you don't need pen when you have amazing accuracy and aim time to hit any weakspot you want. What it really needs is a turret traverse nerf and a hull traverse buff so people can be more agressive comfortably
Because said alternative is still pretty big has terrible standard pen easy to pen if well aimed
@solid gate it can clap you if it goes hulldown and is way more effective than Leo 1 in that position
Literally you are better off with the vickers
I'm at tier iv, it's pretty hard to win since tier iv tanks are trash and in each and every match, there are 5 tier v tanks which you can't really dodge
I like and am extremely good with tanks like cruiser IV
Can anyone please recommend me a tank like cruiser IV for tier iv?
Tier 1-4 tanks are all kind of generic, just get multiple tier 5s and try multiple play styles
Unfortunately there are no tanks similar to Cruiser IV in tier 4 anymore.
The best I can recommend for a tech tree tier 4 is Pz. IV D
Iām not sure what changed about the kv2 if it was its armor or its he shell because you can no longer pen the front of kv2 turret.
There was an indirect nerf to kv2 HE shells where tanks can select one of two perk in the equipment slots where either - HE shells with a caliber above 130mm do less damage (I believe 10%) or - decreased HE penetration
The HE was nerfed a while ago
Is maus op ?
I wouldnt say op. But its one of the strongest tier tens
I dont understand what youre asking
Thats okay. Try to ask again
Maus do bad damage no ?
No
Ah OK he reload fast i think
Average for his alpha
ok thx
Itās fake
And, what are your thoughts about the E75 ?
its good
keep your front armor pointed towards the enemy at all times, and you will get bounces
Did you ever played ? Just asking
yeah im actually grinding it right now
Same
im not amazing in it but its decent. i actually prefer the ST-1 tbh
i feel like the E75's gun trolls me a lot
Yeah it does, bought it yesterday & Iām very glad that I bought it, going then for the Jagdtiger want the Jadgpanzer E100
Just for fun & why not š¤·š½āāļø imo
The e75 was already good and now its benefitting a lot from the HP buff
And Iām probably going for the Leopard as well, soon
The e75 was already good and now its benefitting a lot from the HP buff
Tiger 2 as well
š¤·š½āāļø yk itās Wargaming, I mean their Game let them do what they want
If I may ask, are there going to be āprobably soonā Heavy Tanks for the Japanese? Or nah ?
No, WG keeps saying that they won't come
Ah, well, heard once something like that, just wanted to make sure now
Wonder what the ST-II was if it was a real proposal or anything like that.
@solid gate it was a tank that never went beyond blueprints
@tulip edge Sure but my point is how the real blueprint looked versus what PC WoT I believe has.
I feel that kpz needs a buff, not like my name that's a bit overkill but an all round almost rework, the gun is pretty good, but I feel at it's tier it cant do all to well against a maus or is tanks, a faster reload, maybe 2 less seconds could fix that, it's mobility is pretty good but I feel it could be faster as it has a 1500hp engine but is the speed of the tiger 1, it could also get 10 degrees of gun depression as it's current one can't really fit it's play style all to well, which is hull down. With a bit of patching up, it could be the true t9 german premium we would expect it to be
It's ok right now but it needs to be better as most people I see playing it cant use it's turret armor hull down with it's 6 degrees of gun depression
you can't make it go 70 kph that would be game breaking
Did you even read the first part
Honestly, give it maxed 50 km/h.....
Just a little buff putting it up to 45 maybe even 50 would put the tank at a higher advantage to other heavies
Only the French can compete with that heavy speed
Really kpz is just a cash grab thereās no reason to buy it what so ever it belongs at T10 but requesting a buff for it is pointless wargaming completely ignores the fact it exists
Yeah true, and the only reason why I bought that tank is because I love it how it looks & plus itās one of the most rarest tanks
Who knows soon it will become problaby an collector tank
Next time they sell it, it's probs gonna be collector after that
the first part is OK. Making a heavy tank go 70 kph is not
Yeah, anyways I tried to give some suggestions too for that tank, like maneuverability could be better or the speed & just 2 seconds, maxed 3 seconds less reload time š¤·š½āāļø
But yeah, itās going to be like that how it is probably
@solid gate I'm not saying it should
But It wouldnāt be bad, oh and I forget to mention, the dpm & alpha dmg
Thatās all
They buffed it's alpha when people said it's alpha was really bad
Do you have it ?
And how many times did you played it if you have it ? Just asking for it
And probably for sure you will have it
Yeah I have it and about 200 battles on it
And most of those battles I try to fight hull down with it, but it has the depression of a Russian tank so I can't use it's turret
Well, it I mean when you play it a while itās not bad at all but it sucks when you shoot & then have to wait over 15 seconds..
Would be so much better having faster reverse
If I could get out of a place faster to reload I would be fine with the reload
They never buffed the alpha??? They buffed the accuracy of it
Or that turret could be be more maneuverable š¤·š½āāļø actually Idc tho, when itās doing the money then Iāll keep it
I saw something saying they buffed the alpha
Infact they actually falsely advertised the guns alpha
They used to put up offers advertising 650 average damage per shot on the kpz 70 and a while later it changed to 560
Yup & the accuracy still sucks ||not surprised|| even when itās the grandfather of the M1A2 Abrams & of the Leopard 1 or wait..
Leopard 2 Bruh my brain is dead, should go & take a nap
oh there is gonna be a line of british lights after crusader?
its after comet
After comet
Yup
They used to put up offers advertising 650 average damage per shot on the kpz 70 and a while later it changed to 560
Honestly, you are even doing only 450 or 500 maxed itās rare to have 550 or even higher
I keep doing 600 and even up to 700 sometimes
Thatās HE
I have been using apcr tho
Yup but itās as you & I already mentioned it, itās not per shoot like that sometimes you have luck sometimes you suck so no trust at the gun
However, that tank is not good at all as an heavy, at itās tier, dpm sucks, etc. etc.... Iām going to end this conversation & going to sleep cuz itās now 2:33 am here so cya at the next day
well yes
which tank should I buy? is6 t34 lowe jgtig8,8cm fcm50t or t26e4?
None. Save your money. Eventually a new OP premium will come at at the same price. Just buy that .
do they all suck??
T34 is the best of them id say.
Maybe Lowe
obj252 is also an option
Obj 252u is the best option imo
Lowe is awesome. T34 is pretty good. I love the IS-6 but everyone dislikes it. the Jag 8,8 cm is tough to play but definitely effective. that leaves the FCM 50t and T26E4, which are abysmal tanks. avoid buying those at all costs
Rn OBJ 252u is the Best Buy. Itās super good even in unskilled hands and is useful in tourneys if you do those.
okay thanks guys
@solid gate As they said itās after Comet. Though they could add ones at tiers 6 and 7. Donāt know why they donāt want to.
what tanks tho?
A46 is one. Itās the predecessor to the FV301.
Arcane AFVs oddly has an FV400 listed as a 17.6 ton light tank with 77mm. Sounds a lot like the A46. Might be a redesignation thing. Iām unsure. Normally FV100, 200, 300, and so on would be not a tank but a series of tanks. When the end 0 is replaced by another number then itās a tank. FV400 seems to be an exception.
FV402 is possibly a light tank but possibly another type. Arcane AFVs is about the only place Iāve found that lists it and it just says Tank on that FV number. Iām making it a light tank with 90mm just to fill in a forward turreted light at tier 8 for my idea.
If you find drac and Helsing and gravediggers as a problem then that should say something and there it is
Okay how about like this if the Starship gets added-152mm-AP/APCR/HE- but instead of missiles it gets high HE pen
same hull as tier 10 USA med- hulldown god
Drac isnāt hard to kill, itās just fast, Type 62 is better
i always forget the drac has spaced side armor š®
Drac > Type 62
Better gun depression, a bit more alpha for run and gun, and actually troll armor + magic tracks
Drac also has an intimidation factor for those that aren't good at dealing with that type of tank
Thoughts on the Borsig? I'm 10k exp away from grabbing one.
Glad I'm ditching the Emil
Play mid range with the 15cm, use your camo and stay away from the enemy with the 12,8
Alright thanks
Why do some people say T26E4 sucks?
Because it is not good
the M6A2E1 EXP could receive a Armour Buff...
Lol back in the Comet.... god it's horrible. I couldn't work out why until I compared it to the Bulldog. It's worse than the M41 in every way except two: gun depression (which doesn't matter, because 12° with awful handling and no pen vs 10° with great handling and workable pen, so getting shots doesn't matter when they do nothing anyway) and armour (which also doesn't matter, because everyone at tier VII+ can shoot straight through the turret front anyway and just about every time you get hit you lose a module, crewman or get lit on fire even with the protective kit provision).
Comets a fine tank :/
guys i have an guess
Because it is not good
@fast compass ...
Thanks for the non-answer.
Lol.
Ok but seriously it is bad. It gives up mobility and a good gun for the armour it doesn't recieve(yes its armour sucks). It is a medium trying to be a heavy and failing at both
If you want a proper super Pershing experience play the t26e5 sheriff.
What is the best tier v tank in your opinion? Everyone
Pz v/iv or the t1 heavy
Ok thx
@solid gate wait, pz iv d?
Oh it's a premium tank
I guess I gotta go for the t1 then
Everyone is saying t1 now I'm gonna DEFINITELY go for it
T1 has a decent gun, good mobility and very good armor. It has a weak strip at the front but it's hard to hit without fully aiming in
Lets be real. It is tier 5. No one knows or understands aiming unless they are a sealclubber.
Same reason why vk36 appears more op than it actually is
T1 Heavy is ridiculous nowadays. I can't even pen the side in some tier IVs.
Wait nvm
It is a medium trying to be a heavy and failing at both
@fast compass I take it you're not a fan of heaviums?
There are good heaviums and then there are bad heaviums. Super Pershing can't keep up with mediums. It doesn't have the armour of heavies. It has the gun of mediums. A recipe for disaster.
Take a look at tiger1 for example, more of the pre buff one(currently it is more of a heavy). Workable armour, mobility of the slower mediums and a hard hitting heavy gun. Yes idk why wg buffed tiger1
Heaviums are quite enjoyable when done right.
There is only one thing good about the super Pershing, its credit coefficient
@fast compass Super Pershing used to be great, then people started learning about the weakspots. Happened on PC quite a long while ago, but the Blitz community seems to only now be learning where to shoot the SP.
Which amx? Amx 50b line or amx 50 foch(155) line?
Batchat! Well I can't help with that i am grinding it myself and still learning
@solid gate Hull down.
How the h*ll did I just do 844 dmg with default ap rounds on a front of a Enemy SU-100Y?
I donāt know if this is cursed but I canāt explain it
did your platoon mate not shoot him as well ?
Toon mate was good, no he didnāt get a shot, he was focused on the enemy at mid. I caused almost full hp dmg, scavenger saves my rear by ramming into him and thatās how I got 844, very few know how to actually get that much damage.
Plus if you havenāt looked at the shells, see if it makes sense because I donāt know if the shell just turned from a dud into a fricking tank shredding beast of a shell.
Itās just unexplainable
@proper thunder Look at the dmg counter.
Already know, no need for ping.
But it shows to me that it was 844 but Iām not too convinced..
Says 488 on the side.
Your platoon mate shot at the exact same moment, That's why. Look at his reload, he also just shot, it wasn't you who did all the damage.
Hi do you know if it is possible to change tanks between accounts?
It's not possible
Chi-Ri needs magazine reload buff 10 sec is way too long
I have the choice to buy a new T10 tank: obj140, IS4, T110E4, FV4005 or M48 Patton. Which one do you think is the best?
So what does the second barrel do
@civic fiber IS-4
@viral lodge thanks
how to play the vk 30.02 d?
@broken turtle Donāt get shot and you have to be very good at flanking because the pen sucks.
Honestly the 30.02 D needs a buff. Iāve been able to achieve positive WR with it somehow but itās realistically meh at best.
i'm trying all of the worst tech tree tank
Surprisingly I have a 64% WR and a positive damage ratio in the 30.02 D.
Anyone got some tips for playing the Tiger (P)? I'm loving the tank so far, but I'm still adjusting to it's playstyle.
It's a good pushing tank. What I mean is it's great for slowly breaking through a line as the armor is very good (save the Lower plate and Cupola).
Because it has pretty bad gun depression if I remember correctly being 5° it's not advisable to try to hull down too frequently but it is wise to try to keep your lower front plate covered if possible
Alright, thanks.
I've noted that when I attempt to sidescrape, I tend to get penned a lot. Is that due to weak side armour and the little slopes at either end of the hull?
Yeah the sides are only 80 which while it can work it's generally sensitive enough that the slightest over angle will not bounce a shell also there is a weakspot behind the front drive wheel that has hardly any armor.
Ok, thanks for the tips.
what do you think of e 100?
Pretty strong
For the E 100, beware of the lower plate, angle the tank or cover the plate completely. Some tanks can pen the front of the turret, so after firing, angle the entire turret.
Thanks
Here is a great Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xzxmpLayIg
What kind of tank is the E 100? How is it as a stock vehicle? How do you use its armor effectively? And most importantly, why do fans love it? You will find the answers to these questions and more in the new episode of Guide Park!

Do you guys think that IS-7 deserves a bit of APCR buff?
like 318 pen with Calibrated Shell on a HT is kinda sad imo
Itās the worse pen of the heavies lol
After being the meta tank for like 3-4 years, the is7 deserves it's time in shade for a bitš
It hot the HP buffs anyway, and has stalin always by it's side
š¤·āāļø
But I usually miss in IS-7 tho
maybe Stalin hates me š
also VK 30.02 D is so underpower compared to the Panther
It's like a pre-buff Panther that is using the 8.8 cm
Imo IS7 could use slight buff of it's side armour behind front track wheel, it can do well enough without it though
I don't understand what goes inside WG dev team's mind, they have given WZ-111-5A the other 460 alpha gun heavy bad pen in it's heat too (though it can be ingreased with CS to good enough)
it should have the same gun stats as the wz 111 1-4 but better
the t5 leopard has awful pen now
@solid gate VK 28.01 is pretty good, Panther aswell (one of the best T7 meds) but Leo just got nerfed to the ground
What's wrong with SU-100Y, it is so OP
not really
I have made a 1010hp shoot with it
ok it has a big gun you figured that out
I can not really believe in that
... okay
Itās got little to no armor aside from the mantlet, is as tall as a house and has bad gun depression. the gun is good but I wouldnāt call the 100Y OP. Itās such a fat and hard to miss target. You got a 1010 hp shot with it? gg, but a tank being able to ammo rack another one doesnāt means itās OP.
How are tanks going to look like after being sprayed by a Leopard at tier 5 in update 7.0? Also, Swedish tanks for Swiss cheese?
WZ-121 or E 100
121 although the line is rough
E 100 or WZ-113?
E 100, the line is not a rough and you get both tigers for later use.
thank you!! where can i call someone to play with me?
E100 is really not a nub line (off topic) go for is7 becuase you really donāt need to much knowledge becuase e100 requires like angling he knowledge etc
What are the meta tanks
All missle tanks and broken tanks :v
The is4 line requires side scraping and angling untill you get to the is4 but itās a fun line from tier 6-8/9
the amx 12 t is so annoying
@vocal sentinel "Meta" as in for Tournaments or for Pubs?
Is the RU251 Defender coming soon ??
I don't think so but we'll have to see
Can a kv2 pen the front of a kv1s with an HE shot?
Yeah it can 1 shot it from the front(lfp to be exact)
thank you!! where can i call someone to play with me?
@heavy verge See the channel #platoon-search
Yeah I just did that through a bush and thought it was impossible until then. His lower plate was also tilted up. Never been able to pen a 1s with an HE in front
I had two shots in a row. A kv1s 850 he roll, then a max health roll on a kv2. Rng was for sure on my side. Chat didnāt know howš
Lol, kv-2 before the He nerf, It was a monster
I know I havenāt really played it since it got nerfed
Itās still good it looks tho. Not as op as it was, but some lucky rng shots are always fun
Smasher is perfectly balanced
For sureš
Yeah kv-2 before the nerf had such good He pen, it could pen the sides of a vk.36.01H for almost full health š
what if they make literaly ATGM class but they do like 1600 dpm in tier X
Yeah quick play I still wish I could go back to that time
Same here
@distant ingot Thaks!! Can I add you?
I bought the e75 now, what do you think of it?
I just saw an e75 completely wreck a full health death star literally right in front of it and it didn't take any damage
It's often a target imo but it's good if you play it right
Looks like good, thaks
@heavy verge congratulations, you bought one of the best tier nine heavies (:
@tulip edge thanks!!!
wow, I stood in front of the entire enemy team and no one penetrated me
This tank is amazing
Hello, you can improve the best barrel of the IS-2 (122mm 37-122JT) as is normally seen in the image of the offical page of the world of tanks blitz
To this????
I would thank you if I had your attention :p
From what i look, the official page uses the D-25T gun rather than the 37-122T, both are basically different guns and made from different nation, even though probably it's just a modified D25Ts by the Chinese (37-112T).
Yeah the russian muzzle looks better. But the difference is understandable
How are tanks going to look like after being sprayed by a Leopard at tier 5 in update 7.0? Also, Swedish tanks for Swiss cheese?
@distant ingot go on with double shot ability in uprising, woohoo!
is this tank any good?
In the right hands, yes.
try to get past it asap
any tips?
T32 is great. Solid mobility, amazing turret, 10 degrees gun depression, good enough DPM/gun handling, and now tons of hitpoints
@solid gate Basically play it like a giant medium tank, but with an impenetrable turret and tons of HP, although you might have to spam a little gold for tough targets
@glass relic Oh ok ... but wargaming can add it to the exported IS-2 ... Because I expected IS-2 as the one of the WoT PC .. But can you add it?
I'd say that adding D25t on the Chinese IS-2 on Blitz might make it's unique playstyle on either choosing the 100mm or 122mm for your playstyle irrelevant.
Because there is already an IS and premiums IS-2s that uses D25T.
And the only stats that makes 37-122JT better than D25T is because of that 250mm of HEAT pen.
Ok, but I'm still scammed by the propaganda of the page .. xd
Well at least it's quite funny looking at a non scary looking 122mm gun but when you got hit by it, kinda regret losing 350-450 HP on average.
Is this ok stat wise or should I be trying to do more damage. Currently I'm just playing supremacy, capping a couple bases and attempting to distract and spot more than doing damage. Should i just keep doing that or focus a bit more on damage?
@valid lodge Damage is everything. The end goal of capping and distracting, in the end is so that your team can do damage. Better to just cut out the middleman and do the damage yourself
What average damage should i be aiming for? 2k?
Depends on your usual standard, but 2k is a good goal to shoot for, especially now that heavies have lots of health
panther 1 is a heavy tank with the tier 8 gun
Thank you
I just went to buy chinese containers
And got this tank tier X
wz-113?
@broken turtle wz 113 is a techtree tank ???
That's 121B in the screenshot
Good job, support the game so it doesnt close soon š
Damage is all fun and games until you must destroy 16 enemy vehicles with 4 hours left to grind the mission
that only takes like 8 ish matches for me lol
i usually get 0-2 kills, but sometimes I get 3 or more
is the AT 15 good?
You can't really generalize tanks like that, some "good" tanks may not suit your play style, on the other hand you can have a blast playing some weaker tanks. People know the weak spots of at-15, and it's very slow. Hopefully you do well in it.
I strangely loved it more than any ohter td's. Once you get past that It's slow, you realize that it has very good traverse speed, gun arc and the best dpm in tier 8, one of the best even in tier 9. And very good armour if you are using the gun arc.
Hey I was just wondering what did you guys tought about this tank it is an M4 sherman with a 122mm gun on it and an improved engine I found it stylish
for more infos about the tank https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/coldwar-yugolsavian-prototypes-so-122/
@sand widget so basically an M4 rev?
i'm used to playing slow tanks as long as they have adequate armor for its tier, but i cant really stomach the T28 and the IS-3
@merry crow nop it has a mutch bigger gun better mobility and a much worst armour
Hmm if arty ar fake then how about dis
They said wg was workin on it and it is version from 7.0 to 7.5
Itās fake
I bought the Churchill 1 and found that I get a lot of damage from the chains. What is the best way to put myself that I get as few hits as possible?
you can sidescrape
@vestal yew Fake image. Also that looks like wotpc graphics rather than wotb
It didnāt say itās coming soon
Damage is all fun and games until you must destroy 16 enemy vehicles with 4 hours left to grind the mission
@thorn glacier thatās like the easiest mission bro
The ones that suck are āwin 10 matches (insert tank type you dislike)ā
@sand widget I've been suggesting it for quite a while now I think itd make a good t7 (though I'm not so sure I'd call the engine an upgrade)
Why does Chimera have polish symbol at the top of turret?
The WZ121 or the WZ113, and why?
Eh... both? They are fairly different, the WZ-121 is good for trading, but you need to aim for like a second before you can be confident to hit reliably, but it has a rather short reload and is fairly mobile. The WZ-113 is more cumbersome and a lot like the IS-7 in the driving characteristic (good speed forward but awful turning) in addition to a high dpm gun that is okish in terms of accuracy with a strong turret (mind the cupolas though) and a strong upper plate (as long as they donāt shoot down on it from above)
Iām going for the WZ-113 first (wich will make later the WZ-120 grind way easier). The 113ās ufp is sloped at 67 degrees if Iām not wrong, wich allows you to place it at an autobounce angle when using a bit of gun depression. The lower plate is extremely weak and will get penetrated easily. The pen isnāt that amazing (255mm on APCR) but the dpm is good.
@tulip sail yep
It's also quite different from the other Sherman's so its play wouldn't feel like a copy paste
I'm also still wanting them to add the M-60 variant
After I get E100, I was thinking I should go for either Sheridan or Maus. Any recommendations?
Sheri will suffer from the nerf but still be fun, Maus is strong. Depends on playstyle I guess but I would lean toward Maus
Thx
Currently out of garage slot but I was wondering if french tanks are worthy enough for me to start building. I know for sure the ARL is pretty good but idk the rest.
Foch, 50B, Arl, bdr are usable but the rest are pretty meh to bad
Is the AMX series something to consider?
the heavies? yea they seem half decent. The t7 is bad but the 8 and 9 seem alright. 50b is good
Oh but how about the lights?
no they are garbage. all of them.
Oh lmao thx
lol np
@gentle wasp You said foch was good, but are the French TD worth building on or is the Japanese TD better?
@swift harness Foch is better than Ho-Ri but man the line is bad. I honestly don't know much about the t8 and 9 Japanese tanks, but the t7 is good and the French line is horrible.
Ok aside from the AMX AC 46 the line was fine to grind for me, I did both lines and my preferred playstyle was the french
Oh it really just depends on how many garage slots you can spare but thx.
The foch is actually decent in close up 1v1s too
I want to die the tier 6 churchill is killing the game for me !!
The rest of the TD is pretty hard to grind
dont play it then, the whole rest of the line is basically the same playstyle @mighty canyon
@mighty canyon BP is worth the pain tho imo
The UK heavy line including the Churchill isnāt that bad in my opinion
true, but if he doesn't enjoy the playstyle then there is no need to keep playing it
Abandoning a line that early is fine
Yeah thatās true because using the armor is the main part of that line
Is the rest of the heavy in that line bad?
Thats the thing i try my best to side scrape and angle the tank and turrent but still get rekt
BP is borderline broken, t8/t9 are kinda bad, 215b is good
^
Would you guys go for the 2nd TD line where it begins with the challenger?
not recommended, they are decent tanks but really hard to play. Big, paper armor, and slow traverse.
I have NEVER seen the tier 10 from that line
yea its not that common
Oh
The Conqueror is good
The Caernarvon is tricky but is still an alright vehicle with the special consumables
The tier 8 and nine are alright and I wouldnt say bad. Fv215b is suffering a little from the heavy hp buffs imo
Please remove fv215b 183
@solid gate please remove yourself from the game
no they are garbage. all of them.
@gentle wasp no they aren't
They are fairly challenging to play but they are definitely not garbage
Why do the people prefer the obj140 over the t62a, when on the papers, the t62a has better stats?
Because the Obj. 140 snaps way better ant the hull is also more trollish, while the turret isn't really all that different in most engagements, unless you are facing high pen and alpha tds, but those you can more often than not just snap and wear down with peek a boo
Despite having worse bloom the T62 is still more accurate than the 140 on the move because of its beautiful base dispersion, and it also had better aim time. The hull of the 140 isn't really that useful because it isn't reliable at all even against tier 9s, and the 140s turret is literally butter compared to the T62s. Meds can pen a lot of it with normal ammo and against any high pen tank it is pathetic against the T62s turret.
The 140 is still a very nice tank it's just pretty much useless when the T62 is there, the only thing it has is the useless hull armour and 5kmph better top speed which is noticeable but not an issue.
If it has 2° more gun depression it would be balanced nicely, but I think taking 0.2 off the reload would make it more unique and interesting to play.
140's hull armour is useful...
0.3 would make it broken get out
140 is fine when it is
its nowhere in the āuselessā category and while it may be very slightly underpowered, thatās natural and something that isnāt a big deal
The only reason to play the 140 over the T62 is for a challenge. With all the heavy buffs and it not even having a depression advantage any more when that was basically all the made it more useful than the T62 it's struggling a fair amount. It's got just over half the amount of players and what used to be a difficult decision between the 140 and T62 is now stupidly easy. If the T62 was a prem then it would be complained about for being better than the 140 in most ways.
The hull armour barely helps at all, you can get a few troll bounces using angles but you can't rely on them at all.
@solid gate I meant 0.2 it was a typo, that works out as 3735 dpm which is a lot but it still relies on exposing every 5 seconds with its meh armour.
So what are the best mediums nowadays? Doesnāt sound like Object 140 anymore and Iāve heard bad about M48 Patton.
STB is pretty much the best, T62 is also very good, I've heard mixed things about the 121 it seems pretty strong but a strange playstyle from the looks of it
The tech tree WZ-121 right? I think I read that the one before it was basically the same tank as Type 59. Meaning WZ-120 = Type 59.
Now the WZ-121 (the real one) I donāt know much about. 121(B) is obviously a different tank in real life and in the game.
Yeah the tech tree one sorry that wasn't that clear lol
I really doubt the WZ120 is the same as the type 59 the 120 sea to have a great gun but absolutely awful depression which is kinda the opposite of the type 59.
The 121b is nice but pretty outclassed too
Itās not in game but I think I read somewhere that WZ-120 was the factory designation of the Type 59. Well something like factory.
Also Type 59 doesnāt have that great of gun depression either. Like 5 I think. In game that is.
Ah! Itās called Industrial Designator.
I have a idea how about you guys make it available to make a custom paint job on the tank
Can the mod be used on a apple device
On a Macintosh, I assume yes, on any iOS device, I reckon only with jailbreak
A jailbreak??
jailbreak isnt recommended
should i research track or turret first on leopard pta?
@exotic cosmos Jailbreak breaks iOS so that you can access the data. But you shouldn't do it, the main reason why you would by an iOS device in the first place is because of the security iOS gives, aside from the luxury
Security and comfort... I guess
Well I hope the add the option in a future update that would be awesome
So what happens if someone jailbreaks an iOS device? Does that make it more vulnerable to viruses or something?
Also instead of having a mod for camos and such we just need Wargaming to get their head straight and make better ones. Use historical ones as inspiration if not directly use those.
An Israeli tank line I would like to see
Lol
Iām p sure thatās not allowed
There is a saying that anything is allowed...as long as you do not get caught ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Then better not
New brit lts good?
KindMafia99#8636 was banned
Based on the gameplay in the stream, yes
@solid gate the country itself didn't even exist during that era
Guys how is foch 155 line should i go for that tank
@pulsar flax do what you want to do but I find it quite hard to pin it with my tiger 2
Both foches are a lot of fun, can't say the same for the whole line. Bathtub is nice but lets be real you won't play tier 5 for long
Ok
Tier 5 was how I ground out credits before I had Premium vehicles
IS 3 needs a buff
Guys will 183 get an armor buff???? And if yes. How will it be
No buffs for the 183 were announced. If you find the tank too poorly armoured for your taste, the Jageroo or T110E3 exist
I heard some players saying that it was announced in the live stream for update 7.0
fake news
183 wonāt be getting a buff in any foreseeable future, Wargaming confirmed this
Ok ic thnx for respond
Aside from the addition of British light tanks, here are all the changes coming up in 7.0
Thnx
I dont know where can i type it, i guess there.. Well WarGaming. I buyed T34, and i dont have it in garage.
Someone please help..
Turn the filter off
If it is off, click on the T34 in the tech tree, go to the module screen
Ohh, finnaly.. Thank you so much. @kindred wren
And then double click the tank or press the eye in the bottom left corner, and youāre welcome
Are SPG comming soon. Some one say no. Cuz someone on yt said yes
Artillery will never cone, unless WG pulls a U-turn which is more than unlikely. But hey, if you want to play SPGs try tank destroyers, anti-air guns and even some direct fire howitzers, because we have those
Just play higher tiers
BRU there was a hacker in the game he was like reallly fast and he had like 10x the shooting rate and ammo like how it didnāt show but how I didnāt get the name tho
how can i grind chinese and japanese line quickly? I suck at tier 5, meet tons of noobs
@broken turtle You donāt. Grinding has always been a part of the game. Itās annoying and even frustrating at times but you have to get through it.
BRU there was a hacker in the game he was like reallly fast and he had like 10x the shooting rate and ammo like how it didnāt show but how I didnāt get the name tho
@gaunt birch
Which tank? Exactly? I don't understand what is "shooting rate 10x". Can u explain correctly which tier and what tank? And in blitz there're lots of fast tanks too
@broken turtle You donāt. Grinding has always been a part of the game. Itās annoying and even frustrating at times but you have to get through it.
@solid gate low tier japanese tanks such like trash, bad armor, bad speed, just have some decent accuracy and damage but that doesn't help much
@broken turtle True. For a game standpoint they could use mobility buff. Also Chi-Nu needs a reload buff.
I hope that the british lights wont powercreep the british mediums š...also Lets hope that the lights armor wont be too troll (like the american lightsāhow many nerfs now?)
nah the tiger 1 is much more troll
@solid trench Man the British mediums are already power creeped anyway. The lights arenāt going to change that fact though could make it worse.
british mediums will probably be powercrept, the FV4202 is already irrelevant in the current meta, since other meds like the T62a, STB-1 and E50M are way better. The new lights will probably makes this even worse, although i dont think it will be as bad like with the obj 140, which has no use. at least the fv4202 has HESH
Meanwhile obj 140 was used in professional tournaments in all 4 servers...
which do you think is better: Maus or E100?
Maus
Depends on the situation, Maus for pushing through a line, E 100 for holding a position. E 100 has higher alpha that generally scare off vehicles whereas Maus has the armor and the slightly better mobility to push through
I donāt know, people who say the the T-62A is way better than the Object 140 probably havenāt played the tanks. Even if you look at the stats alone the difference isnāt major, except for the accuracy but to face it, 0.33 is just enough, 0.3 does the job perfectly fine and anything below that is just overkill and doesnāt actually help you that much. Quite contrarily, the Obj is actually better at snapshooting - and when it comes to armour, the T-62A may win when it comes to the turret, but the Obj both has a trollish turret and a trollish hull, and since it usually isnāt that much of an issue to get a shot on the hull the Obj. 140 boasts better overall protection than the T-62A in most situations
What do you think about E 50M?
Is it OP or not?
Not OP after the heavy tank buff, still one of the best mediums though.
Good armor, good top speed
And good ramming
Its a med abuser
Someone mentioned a hacker earlier. Most people who actually hack (which is already near impossible to do) keep it on the down low. Usually just being able to see the red outline of a tank after itās gone invisible or consistent alpha rolls. In low tier it doesnāt matter much and once theyāve made it to high tier they really donāt want to get banned and have all their time wasted
Any thoughts on the M48 Patton? I've been having some amazing games in it recently, but all I've been hearing is bad press for it.
True. I noticed that the Patton is in the middle of the pack though, which means it's certainly not in a bad spot. It's just not the meta I suppose.
Well I think its more do you want to do the hell that is the Japanese Med line, if so you get the better tank. If No you go down the less painful american med line and get a "worse" tank
Yeah I agree. Honestly the only thing I'd do to buff the Patton is give it 50kph top speed (it's currently 48kph) and make the whole of the front of the turret completely red (aside from the cupola). They're relatively minor buffs, but they would bring the tank back up in terms of performance
The armour is one of the main reasons STB is ahead lol, so ya it would be fairly important.
Not if we leave the cupola alone. The main thing it would do is get rid of lucky snap shots on the center of the turret. You have to keep in mind that the STB would still be faster and have more gun depression.
Dont both tanks have 10?
No, the Patton has 9°. The M60 has 10° but it has better gun handling and worse armor
Possible unpopular opinion: thunder is really good and reminded me of the glory days dominating in the 1S
no, that's just the truth lol
Like I was just in a 5-6 battle and got 4 fires (2 of them with consecutive shots)
The Thunder is literally just a better KV-1S at this point. People often point to the worse engine power, but I'll just redirect you to the fact that it has a working gun mantlet and 10° of gun depression instead of 8°. Furthermore, it gets up to that 43kph top speed anyways, albeit slightly slower
And a slightly faster reload
And improved armor
balance
Can this have 1776 hp?
OP buff
lol
Only 26 hit points away
I dont think I've ever agreed more with any change to this game
@frigid ember I do not know where to ask this but I hope you can answer back to me. Before the 5.5 update I had went through every tier 1 tank and sold them. Now, can I restore them because they don't appear in the restoring tab? If so how? Thanks in advance
@harsh steeple pretty sure you cant restore the t1s as they were removed and not converted to collector
So you had to had them before the 5.5 update if I understand
actually I think they were just taken. They show up as 0 players on blitzstars. the other tanks if you had them in garage you kept them
It's weird because I still see players with them
really? that is weird i was pretty sure they got taken. do you have ss?
They will show up in battles and other statistics however you cant play them anymore because they were taken out of the game entirely
Yes they removed the tier 1s but all the others got removed and made into collector
BRU there was a hacker in the game he was like reallly fast and he had like 10x the shooting rate and ammo like how it didnāt show but how I didnāt get the name tho
@gaunt birch Probably the Leopard! š
But really, you need to show the battle stats, game replay, or some proof of the situation otherwise there is no weight to your statement.
I think that E100 would be remodeled, I mean, three turret types were selected (Porsche, Krupp and Henschel) and Krupp is the turret that everybody knows, but Henschel has more plates in front and sides, as a huge Tiger II/ E75 turret in E100 chasis
That means less chances of penetrate the big frontal of the turret
Yeah I agree. Honestly the only thing I'd do to buff the Patton is give it 50kph top speed (it's currently 48kph) and make the whole of the front of the turret completely red (aside from the cupola). They're relatively minor buffs, but they would bring the tank back up in terms of performance
@broken sentinel Ive been asking for this too lol
š
Quick question to anyone willing to answer: How much gold does it take to get a 100% crew on a tier 9 tank? I know a tier 8 takes 750 and a tier 10 takes 1000, but I cannot remember how much a tier 9 costs
By rule of 3 should be 900
@broken sentinel 850 gold
thanks
np
Have they ever considered adding the Czech tanks to the game? The tier 10 could have a 3 round clip of 310 alpha like the Bat Chat, but put it out with a 2 second or 2.5 second reload.
Kpf but faster, here's a reference image
Brrrapp brapp braaappp braaaaaappp
You know if it had the actual 69kph speed it would be OP right?
T 34 vs Lƶwe credits
Lowe is better for credits
bruh 69km/h? Yeah step aside T49 and T92E1
It's hard to hit but impossible to control
If you're gonna give a speed buff, go all the way or don't do it
I donāt understand why would games workshop have their own vehicles aka vindicator in predator seems to be weaker then I read them on the lore
IS-5 thoughts? i'm 50 gold away from grabbing one. Same playstyle as the IS-3 i'm assuming.
its not that good but its extremely cheap. great armor and great mobility, abysmal gun
got jg back
which jg
Thoughts on the AMX 12 T light tank, do you guys think that its speed of 39 km/h is already fast?
@hollow sedge thats abysmal, thereās heavies that are faster than that
also the 12t can reach 65 mph with both engines, so idk what youāre saying
Probably a stock engine then, idk tho been forever since I had it
i think you mean the average speed. thatās kind of a poor way to judge the mobility. it depends a lot on what terrain you drive on, what the acceleration and top speed are, and how often you stop to slow down or turn
and however they calculate is pretty flawed
for example: the T28 Prototype apparently has an āaverage speedā of 1 km/h
Gotta love ru's 40km/h
Lol didn't know about the T28 prot's
but then when mounting the top engine, which buffs the horsepower by like 30%, that value goes up to 16 average speed
The max on the speed is 41 according to the module
no, select the option for ādetailed overviewā
the ābrief overviewā is pretty useless
that will give you a lot more information on how the tank handles
Oh I see. Sorry sorry I didn't look on the detailed view partš
Yes I see it can go max as 65 and the average is 41
yup, no worries
when looking at the mobility of a tank, the things you want to check are the vehicleās top speed going forward (and backwards, albeit less important) and the tankās āhorsepower to weight ratioā
@calm inlet Earning them brownie points :D
Noted, though I only use reverse when facing an an enemy
yeah exactly, itās only useful when you need to get away from an enemy
power to weight (p/w) is essentially a measure of the acceleration of a tank. the higher the number, the faster it accelerates
most lights have a 25 or higher p/w, and 43.9 is the max in the game, which the Sheridan has.
Thanks for the Info frostbite š š . Also i'll max the crew skills to get a slight bonus on several aspects on the tank. I havent gotte it to 100% yet
yes, that definitely helps
I'll review it more to get more insight into the tank
You can get the average speed of the T28 prototype to 20kmh
itās the effective power to weight ratio which actually matters, which is the normal p/w multiplied by the terrain resistance
terrain resistance is a hidden stat so i didnāt want to complicate things further lol
but yes you are correct
That tank in wot must be overpowered
@solid gate
Mmmm sweet Pz.II H but not bad idea for new tank in blitz
Its in wt
I know
Its a mini Tiger 1
:D
Uh, when is the 7.0 update launched? Can't wait for the midget rocket tanks nerf.
But good if it will be new colllector.
In June @subtle mason
Or a new event where you can get it without paying a hill of money
Yep that will be good but wargaming never do that
Wargaming ain't just gonna give you free tanks, ya gotta work for it
Becuz wargaming is interested to money š¤
Oh come on, t34-3 event was quite fine. I mean, except for the shitty tank itself.
I like the christmas event or M4/FL10
the T-34-3 seems fine to me as a tank actually
it does have a bad reload and even worse pen
It has a shitty pen, shitty mobility and miserable gun depression.
And the japense TDs are overpowered to armor or they arent?
The only way to make T-34-3 work SOMEHOW is to get calibrated shells on it and spam HEAT.
no
Yes. With such shitty mobility it's near impossible to flank anyone, and miserable gun depression won't allow you to play hulldown. Moreover, it also has a really bad dispersion cause it's a typical soviet destructor. The tank is a wreck.. It has literally nothing to play around it. Only 400 alpha for some lucky rng ammoracks, that's it.
you just suck with it and that is okay
it is a second line support tank
not a frontline
the gun depression is workable(5degress)
your aim time is stupidly amazing you wouldn't even need to expose yourself a lot
heat pen is 250 without CS you only really go for CS because of the AP
you can get weakspots easily
your heat is enough to go through most tanks easily but you wouldn't need it against meds a lot
your turret armor is decent but not amazing it is not really for face hugging but it works long range when you manage to hide your hull
mobiliy isn't shitty tf you talkin about? top speed is 50 and reverse is 20 not bad
and of course the 400 alpha
it is not trash nor amazing it is decent
impossible to flank with it? LOL nice joke
the tank is only good in experienced hands, i am average but i still think it is decent
i got 56% WR and 1600avg damage in it, not the most amazing but it is there
56 wr and 1600 avg
How many battles? Show me your account on blitzstars
182 battles @subtle mason
also i knew you would ask for my account lmao
i am telling you
i am average 58.14% career WR
So what? I'm average 55.28 from 11k battles. It doesn't mean the tank is any good.
not my best but i am fine with it
the tank is decent not amazing nor bad
just decent
Nah, it's nowhere near of being "decent". A niche tank that works sometimes.
if you say so
I don't own the T-34-3, but it certainly doesn't look bad. The only issue seems to be the DPM. I heard from a friend that it's a little sluggish compared to the T-34-2 as well, but that can be negated with a little forethought. Given that its a medium tank that has a decent turret and high alpha damage, you need to keep in mind that its playstyle is extraordinarily unique. It's not going to play like a T-54 mod. 1 or a Type 59 very much simply because of the nature of the gun. If you're struggling in it, I recommend checking out some reviews of the tank and play it more passively. If you're needing to use premium ammunition exclusively, you're absolutely playing the tank wrong.
Nah, I had my ~300 battles on it already. Don't even want to touch it again. The least favorable T8 medium for me.
i mean
it certainly isn't for grinding or anything
but more of
if you want to have a challenge or play something unique
I mean, challenge? Yeah, it is so. But "Unique"? I rather doubt it. I mean, it has nothing unique in it. Even high alpha gun is not unique - can be found on T-34-2.
Yeah, the pair is unique...
Chrysler K is unique. M4a1 Rev is unique. But T-34-3? Nah.
uh
there is literally only 2 tanks in that tier with high alpha and strong turret plus the aim time
which i doubt you ever made use of
Right so a tier 8 premium medium with 400 alpha and nearly the best aim time in the game isn't unique?
Hell, the fact that it makes credits compared to the T-34-2 along with the other changes to the tank make it unique
Chrysler K is not unique at all lmao
it is just rear mounted
nothing else going for it
Quoting you, "are there many rear mounted tanks on tier 8"?
i just used your own logic
Yeah, but chrysler has a unique gameplay, it has many pros. The only PRO for t-34-3 is alpha and aim time.
It literally has the same gun as the T32 and the armor of the IS-2Sh. I'd pretty much sum it up as a faster firing IS-2Sh
AMX 13 90
How much time will it take for you to bring turretless td's like Ferdinand and JP2 into the discussion, where I compare unique gameplay of heavy tank?
@subtle mason mate we are just using your own logic
And again, I view the T-34-2 and T-34-3 as a pair. They both offer similar gameplay styles yet are both unique.
and the armor of the IS-2Sh
Is2 can't sidescrape properly, all armour of Is2sh is made of cardboard.
T-34-3 has alpha
aim time
low profile
turret armor
and abnormally amazing heat
plus side scraping in a Chrysler is not effective at all
maybe similar to is-2sh
which i think has the same armor
Nah, you think wrong.
ironic don't you think?
Nah, it's not ironic because I have both chrysler K and t-34-3 and can objectively discuss them, while you have only the latter one.
i have played against Chrysler K many times when it was sold in the shop
and nah mate it isn't effective
you just need a brain to clap a Chrysler
I have neither and yet I can still watch YT videos, analyze their statistics, and face off against them in game. It's almost as if you don't need to own the tank to talk about it š¤
and nah mate it isn't effective
How come?
you just need a brain to clap a Chrysler
You could say so about any tank. All you have to do is point and shoot, any monkey can do.
little mistake in angling makes your sides exposed and easily penned
you will be only effective against something with shit pen
I mean the Chrysler does have an overall winrate of 57.53% for the whole playerbase. Saying it's ineffective is just incorrect
What if I told you that I am effective against borsig and many tier 9 tanks?
@broken sentinel my experience against it
Your experience is anecdotical.
@strange thicket I understand that, but the statistics say that your interpretation of your experience is incorrect
Look man, I agree with you. It's very easy to take out a Chrysler. But the tank is still effective regardless of how easy it is to take out (think of the Rhm for example)
Though, your experience about T-34-3 is also anecdotical because you almost had no experience with other meds/lights of tier 8. That explains why you think T-34-3 is great.
i also played the RU and other tanks but i already sold what i finished
Are we gonna compare hangars or what?
you are the one who started
13 med/lights are 8+ tier.
@subtle mason experience isn't everything. Statistics are presented so that they can be interpreted. We can interpret these stats based on media we consume and the encounters we have against them in game. If you think that you have to have a tank to understand it, you're plainly wrong.
Though, your experience about T-34-3 is also anecdotical because you almost had no experience with other meds/lights of tier 8. That explains why you think T-34-3 is great.
@subtle mason very wrong because as you can see
i had experience with different kinds of meds
and on my brother's account aswell
plus i never said t-34-3 is great
it is decent
just decent
So yeah, I basicly say that you didn't play meds much to have a vast experience. T-34-3 doesn't excel in anything.
except dishing out high alpha with high pen with almost no aim time
So yeah, I basicly say that you didn't play meds much to have a vast experience. T-34-3 doesn't excel in anything.
@subtle mason your statement is still very very wrong
as i have shown i played other meds and lights
175 pen is nowhere near high, though.
load HEAT and you just lolpen everything
the magical 2-key
hereās the thing tho: thereās only one tank at Tier 8 that can prepare you for the T-34-3, and its the T-34-2. it doesnāt play like any other tank at Tier 8 besides that one. it doesnāt matter how many other mediums or lights youāve played at Tier 8 or higher (again, besides the 120 and 121), the playstyle is very different
Which makes the tanks unique (again, viewing them as a pair)
