It’s not like Dracula has the CDC engine which is 1250 HP the tracks aren’t that OP either stopping it will still stop it long enough to harm it
@solid gate dracula tracks are broken as hell. They repair themself instantly and immune to first shots.
@nova star I hope they dont. Game already has enough no brainer Obj and Is tanks.
despite dracula being mt , it has lt armor
despite the dracula having LT armour, it is hard to pen with he shells
Its covered with spaced armor
Do I need to save up free xp for the new Swedish med line? Or do I use it now for my stock T49 and VICKERS CR? Pls someone give an appropriate answer.
Save it for the T-49 and CR
It's better used for the CR keeping your WR healthy while also giving you fun.
So, I use it now ryt? I seriously hope the new Swedish line won't be a pain to grind
It'll be like progetto line except you'll have turret armor and gun dep at tier 8 and the tier 6&7 will be very average like the P43s.
I have progetto
Do I need to save up free xp for the new Swedish med line? Or do I use it now for my stock T49 and VICKERS CR? Pls someone give an appropriate answer.
What do you mean? New Swedish meds line? Do you mean kranvagn?
yes kranwagon
Yes kranbang
On the topic of Dracula track repair speed... my repair kits are faster, and I carry 2 of them. I sure hope I don't put my type in situations where I get tracked more than 2 times
My initial intention was to free xp upto tier 7 (leo) or tier 8 (Emil I). So, do I do so, or use it now to upgrade my T49 and Vickers CR?
Pls someone tell
@strange crag use it on vickers cr and t49
Go for upgrading your CR and T49
Kk
nice work, post that in #blitz-art too
Yes ._.
ah welp. still cool tho
@tribal badge looks awesome ❤️
It’s not mine @candid harbor I just posted it here to annoy my friends because it’s an Amx Cdc With SU-152s Gun and they said don’t give WG any ideas
xD
ask them to make more
What was the tech tree for m4 bulldog before the t49?
Bulldog was part of the t49 line
Really?
Was there a tech line there where the bulldog is at before or was there nothing
Iirc both t49 and t69 led to t57
Vicker CR n lights nerf when reee
@scarlet echo the old one before deletion update is chaffe at tier 5 n T21 at tier 6. Bulldog n T49 still same spot
Oh ok
Hey guys, how tf are you meant to play the IS-3? Its front plate is literally 110mm, and I'm suffering XD
IS-3 is a heavium, frontline aisn't good strategy for it
True
Hulldown, side scrape, front armor isn't reliable anymore except to some low pen tanks.
Side scrape? In a pike nose?
It's workable if you actually know how to do it, and reverse side scrape is an option.
T49 Tips?
I guess
Early spot and early HEPing someone days out.
@haughty forge if you have an opportunity to use gun dep on a tank below use HE on tank roofs your guaranteed to damage either a crew member or module
Engine deck is better option since there'll be chances of fire meaning more damage dealt.
Unless you'd like to ammo rack people.
t49 is a credit burner imao , even if u dont use HE u still lose credits , ironic
alr bought camo tho
I bought the legendary camo for it and definitely not a waste of gold since it's cool and fit the tank well.
Anyone got KV-3 tips?
Oh yos, Jagdpanzer E100 can't pen it with HE@scarlet nest
Do frontline and sidescrape, load a lot of prammo because KV-3 penetration is bad, always go with your team because it's a very slow tank @fair scaffold
Thanks, but I'm broke on credits, and a F2P so I cant spam prammo 😦
Welp, then grind credits will be good for you
vikers car needs a nerf badly
grinding the Italian line, up to strv m/42. helppppppp
How does someone get a valiant effort after a loss
You have to put an effort(Which is obvious) and deal damage more than your teammates, while providing the most commitment to win the game. Maybe.
i think its when u get some heroic badge or something
guys, is it possible to get mastery badges in defeats?
Yeah it’s possible to get a mastery in defeat
is it somehow related to a premium account? Like if ya hv one, do ya get mastery badges in defeats?
No mastery badges depend on base xp
You will usually need a valiant effort on a defeat to get one
Like, I'm absolutely frustrated. The first few grinding games for E75 TS were fine. I was able to grind 100 in two days. But from yesterday onwards, I've been getting useless team mates who literally don't what specific roles of diff tanks.
now, I'm currently at 120
S u 85 first match
(I had so much free xp so I got 200 damage gun)
Mastery badges are still more dependent on YOUR skill
As u can lose and get a ace
Its still harder to farm exp with a useless team but its possible
My wr has been dropping by .4% and I'm at 300 parts
In 2 days
my wr has increased by .25-.30
😁
dude, ig you play a lot. But I've getting absolute donkeys in my team. It's just so frustrating. Btw, what tanks do ya use for getting the aces?
changing day by day
I played like 120 games m8
My 30day winrate dropped from 60 to 58.50 :c Well atleast my career winrate is rising.
Either way i dont really care about stats as much
so far I used m41 bulldog , t49 , y5 firefly and bromwell . Tomorrow gonna grind credits with p43/06 annivesario
You don't have tier 8 premiums for credit grinding?
I sit at about 3.4k wn8 for the last 60 days so losing and a 2nd class is pretty easy for me
You overuse t49 ammo and ur credits are gone :c , @fast compass naaww i sold t34 and tier 8 chieftain
Y
Y lol?
cuz i needed creds , might buy t34 back tho
Wow...
T34 isn't the best but still works. Chieftain is just for playing around with meds
tumor on the top exists
just got a su100y from a crate, is it good for anything and what are the chances
i looked up the credits coefficient and it says %164, does that mean it'd be very very hard for me to play this tank lose credits 🤣
dude, ig you play a lot. But I've getting absolute donkeys in my team. It's just so frustrating. Btw, what tanks do ya use for getting the aces?
@strange crag
Ikr
Su100Y is good at wiping people out with it's special AP, and punishing people with your high alpha.
it is a box
@pliant viper 175%
It plays like a Tiger II most of the time, but it's slower than tiger II. But has better DPM.
And those side skirts actually helps you by being a visual annoyance towards enemies who is trying to shoot your sides because their visions will be blocked by the skirts.
i love how my normal play of su100 was me losing credits most of the time, yet i never have with a 100y even though i do the general amount of same damage
Then deal more damage so you won't lose credits and also using Premium account.
using a premium account so i dont lose as much credits is not an argument
sure i could play better but it'd never amount to the level of credits i earn with a 100y
i could do my best play in a su100 with 2.5k damage and 4 kills and maybe earn sonewhere around 10 to 15k credits or i can just get two-three hits in su100y and die in the match, and get around 8-10k credits either way
Well it's a tech tree tank... And not a Premium tank so yeah you don't grind credits with a tech trees anyway.
that's a big flip off to people who only run free tanks
Even if you use free tanks there is some with good coefficient and can also minimalize credit loss by running less provisions only use at least 10% food and also only use cheap consumables. Then avoiding using prammo in an excessive way.
i have never used prammo, i honestly dont know how good they are or not
they are good when the weak spot of a tank is to hard to hit or ur in a desperate situation in which ur next shot needs to have a higher chance of pen
Prammo is good when you actually need to pen something that isn't pennable with normal rounds, so you don't actually have to flank and possibly lose your HP.
pen something that isnt pennable with normal rounds? that doesnt doesnt sound okay
thats just paying money so you can shoot a tank
that's how this game works. The tradeoff is that prammo usually takes a different kind of ammo type (which have their upsides and downsides), and has less alpha damage most of the time in exchange for increased pen
It's optional and situational, if you wanted to take that maus with 200hp and you don't want to risk getting hit by him because you're a two shot, so you use your prammo to make sure it pens his cheeks.
and even then you still have to pray that rng is on ur side..
Even if you don't use prammo, you better off carry it like 5/10 rounds to at least make sure you can win the game rather than losing because you took too long to aim their small weakspots instead of using prammo to hit somewhere that isn't pennable by normal ammo, so its a guarantee damage/kill meaning less HP to chew on enemy team.
i'd rather not, gold isn't bountiful on my end
you *should only buy prammo with credits
Switch it to credits
I bring 10 prammo in general and most tanks then only 5 if the tank is suffering on Ammo capacity, 12 for 3 shot auto loaders/reloaders then 16 for 4 shots.
i checked my su100y premium rounds and it is less penetration for more damage, opposite of what you guys said
pack enough to kill a heavy since you will be firing prammo against those, not meds
Mmm SU-100Y has special prammo
^^^ same as tankenstein @solid gate
Same as ISU-130
same as T49 (derp)
btw, any chances i can get the e75 ts? i have like 150 pieces
uuum yes. You are on track for the event
is my pace good, i mean
you need like 38 pieces per day
^
about 3 days have passed so you are on track by about +40 (36 to be exact)
is it a good tank? i mean i dont wanna miss it if it is, for comparison i played 36.01h
I hate heavy tanks so I won't comment on that
It's a free tank anyway and a decent credit grinder
hahahaha, i mean heavy tanks are the only actual tanks in my opinion, rest are like hit or miss, and destroyers are uhhhhh weird
I think it's decent for a free event tank, but there are better options available (Tiger II for example)
i like playing the russian meds
#med/lighttankgang
Ey I like meds too
i have started very recently i really dont know, i have like 50-60 hours tops in this game
Well it's a tier 8 so…
and never paid a cent to WG 😎
very fun at everything
i like the amx tanks though those guys are too fast lmao, how tf is a tank going 55 km per hour kek
Yeah.. and the Ru251 can goes 80km/h
i realized i started ammoracking people with ap shells how does that even work
arent those kinda things meant for he shells and similar shells that dont bounce
All shells have module dmg. He usually has the most. But if module is damaged already it has even less hp left
Every shell has the potential to ammorack if hit in the right place
Reminds me of the time the T49 was ammoracking tanks left and right because of its insane module damage
Because of the HEAT capabilities of easily damaging the modules on enemy vehicles. Was astrocious who faced it.
so there's a hidden module damage of every tank and their seperate shell types, aside from the general alpha damage the game lists
try using this partner it helps u get more familiar with what ever tank ur using http://wotinspector.com/en/
WOTInspector.com - visualize game mechanics and models. World of Tanks PC, Blitz and Console. Official website.
neat
know where ur ammo rack is to avoid being ammo racked
my enjoyment of this game doubled ever since i unlocked this premium tank, is this normal
It's normal and good since you actually keeping your sanity in a normal pace before it'll plummet back to sufferable state.
my only gripe with game, credits earned, is practically over for now, i dont care about 70+ winrates or rating battles etc. I like a good match and my tank xp and credits earned keeping up with eachother
Also, how exactly does the Sniper crew skill work with effectiveness going up a certain percent with each level? I check it and it says it varies from 27% to 100%. For example, in level 3 it says 3% yeah? Is it a 3 percent chance of having 100% module damage?
With every shot I land
You don't dmg modules everytime you hit one. There is a % chance for it to happen. At max level you have 7% chance of getting that skill to activate. Once activated your shell will do 100% dmg to the module it hits
And by 100% it means you will dmg it. Dmg it deals depends on the module dmg your shell has
So at max level for example, with a 7 percent activation chance, I get to damage a module guaranteed
Yes
I see
One of the least useful skills
Oh man do I love getting one shotted by su 152
They should just remove it from the game ffs
Slowly turns head towards smasher
yes, since if you dont repair the module, then it stays at how much Hp it has and there is an easir chance of getting ammoracked if it is already damaged.
how much does an ATGM shell cause?
What's the word missing from that sentence? Damage?
Pain?
Suffering?
Satisfaction?
It is most likely damage. And the answer would be 490 avg roll for atgms on both the tanks
@glass relic you're perfect He magnet tho
@fast compass Pain
What is the meaning of the TS at the event E75
As far as i am aware it doesn't stand for anything. Especially since the tank itself is made up vy wargaming
Nerfing the Vickers light when? BC already underperforming + Vickers light? More disappointing
Petition to give t62A ap shells, with apcr as default shells its really sad to see a tier X med do 260 damage😐
oh yeah sure, lets take one of the few things the obj 140 has better than the 62A and just give it away
@lean swan shell type has nothing to do with alpha HE doesn’t count since it explains itself
I think they just added TS to not confuse it with the original e 75, idk
Hey guys I wanna start a new line but I'm not sure which is the best. I know that I want to do a fast light or medium tank can someone tell me the best options
@solid gate isn't the Russian or British lights and mediums good?
There the best rn
yes they are very good, but British are meh
You do know vickers cruiser and light have top ratios rn right
@solid gate so brit are the best as of now and which should I go for the medium or the light
4202 is bad rn vickers cruiser and the light are borderline broken
Opinions on the e100?
The mediums aren't great they can work but have nothing they do better than other mediums
@solid gate which one should I chose out of vikers cruiser and the medium
@tulip sail so which brit is better the light or the medium
The Vickers cruiser line is better than the FV4202 line
The light
@hushed shadow is that the medium that's better then
No the Vickers Light tank is better than the FV4202
@hushed shadow k
Lmao I just bounced 4k damage in my vk.30.01 H
Is the British light tenk line good?
Tbh idk I’ve never played it but I know the “it’s about the player not the tank “ so idk but from what I’ve seen yes it’s good
Probably the one decent thing in that line overall I don’t think the British line is at all on the same plate as any of the other nations with the current meta of the game
I have Grille 15 also
Use your gun like a lightsaber
😂
Didn't it just get sold this month
is the KV 220 T a stretched KV 1 ?
Got ask which has more dpm cr and bat chat 25 t
on na yes @gentle wasp not on eu. or the other way around
Yea pretty sure the other way around. He is on EU server so I thought that was weird. @marble oasis
@vivid yarrow CR
@solid gate Kv1 with 76mm, less turret armor, and more hull armor
@gentle wasp thank you
np
Is there a reason for tanks to get a legendary camo, is it the tanks popularity. And if it is, why doesnt jg pz e100 have one?
I don't think there is any definite criteria
I think they just put them on tanks that are dying so that people play them, idk for sure
Nah vickers got its camo on release
on the contrary, they tend to give the newer tanks camos
Yea that aswell
Yeah you could say that
But look at the ussr meds, t44, t54 and t62A+obj has legendary camo
In the past i remember the camo for t44 and 54 didnt even have a name
if only the nice camos costed credits instead of gold
They wouldnt be so nice and special if everybody had them tho
As long as they look good and aren't the razzle dazzle the recent have been there nice
For me the IS would have to have more penetration (the latter, not the KV-1S) because it is
very little penetration for level 7
FOR ME
“IS” “Not KV-1S” you’ve just said IS and I think we all know it’s not a kv1s
“IS” “Not KV-1S” you’ve just said IS and I think we all know it’s not a kv1s
@tiny plume What I mean is that the IS has the less powerful gun than the 200 or even the 300, then the KV-1S and then the best, which for me would have to increase the penetration a bit, it is very little for tier 7
You’ve said “IS” then “KV-1S” in brackets showing what tank you meant. How do you even mix them up together
the good gun of the IS has 175 out there, penetration, and as an example the tiger 1 more than 200
Now you’ve changed topic
You’ve said “IS” then “KV-1S” in brackets showing what tank you meant. How do you even mix them up together
@tiny plume
I'm talking about one of the IS guns being the KV-1S
No you said the vehicle not guns
For me the IS would have to have more penetration (the latter, not the KV-1S) because it is
very little penetration for level 7
@☣☠£ÐÆÑЇ「𝚂.𝚂.𝚀」#3698 > For me the IS would have to have more penetration (the latter, not the KV-1S)
my god, i hate kv1-s, whoever said vk36.01h is the better heavy in t6 should reconsider, kv1s with the 400alpha gun is clearly is a better alternative than german heavy, both can easily pen eachother too
Yeah the is doesn’t have a lot of pen for a tier 7 heavy
Damn I got 17k xp in one battle in the fv301
Would the t69 good for the medium frontline to back up the heavies?
T69 worst medium
Will the t71 be good for spotting and taking out td's from flank?
Yes
Ok thx
I must be missing something: So, the tank after St. Emil (with upgraded cannon) have barely better pen with it's stock cannon. When you upgrade the cannon however, pen is decreased and stays below of Emil.
I mean, why tho?
Because pen isn’t everything
When are there going to be tier X tanks from containers? If there are tier X tanks from containers what are they?
Containers meaning the daily ones? Never.
Containers meaning crates? All the time.
Ok
I once won a lowe in a free container but then I lost my iPad so now I'm starting again lol
that is why it is in testing and not released yet
@random meadow Since when did the miscalculated distance of measurement of the X, Y, and Z coordinates cause the game to misconvert the thickness and quality of that white argumentation/line of reasoning glitch in update 7.2? The local argument/succession was not in that placement before. Maybe it will be fixed in a future inevitable update.
dude i am so so so confused on what u said
say it again but in a way someone can understand lmaoooo
Equipment for Vickers CR?
How to play IS-3 with paper front armour?
is the fv4005 good with doubleshot in uprising?
With the accuracy consumable it is
Should the panther be a heavy tank or should it stay a medium tank?
Personally I think it should be a heavy tank
Originally, Panther is a medium tank, but Welp, WOTB is the same place that you can find MTs with more armor than HTs
looks at amx 50B line tanks
add some Israeli tanks pls
Isn’t the m41/fl10 Israeli or Egyptian? In real life
And there goes the guy that wants WOTB to become war thunder, Israeli tanks are too modern to compete against a Maus, a leopard one or something like this @last viper
Egyptian @versed tapir
@hollow moth the shot kal isn’t a modern vehicle
well it is sorta to the Cold War era there’s the leopard 1, ru 251 and kfpz already
just don’t need secondary firing guns or else we all know what’ll happen with American tanks
The panther was weird in the fact it was a heavy for the medium betalions
@versed tapir the m4/fl10 was owned and operated by the Egyptians the M-51 was Israeli (the M-51 was the modified version of the second rev)
It's literraly a Centurion with 105mm cannon, it doesn't look so interesting @last viper
@last viper the shot kal literally has ERA and modern ammunition
We should be happy if they do add secondary firing that the E100 in blitz it not like warthunders
We shouldn’t because we do just fine with single guns
They already have ERA as a consumable and Apcr rounds so what’s the big deal
APCR is ww2 tech APFSDS is not
In case they do add secondary firing the mgs should do no damage and only slighty damage modules
I could already imagine tier 3/4 with the m3 lee
And ERA isn’t even a proper consumable shot kal is literally one of the most modern and top centurion upgrades featuring armor armament and mobility
They do
And look at that it’s coded as APCR yet other guns don’t receive this treatment wargaming doesn’t care about it
@versed tapir second guns isn't good for mobile players, cuz it would be necessary another button (mobile players already have enough buttons)
Also, it would be only effective on lights @versed tapir
So make it a tier 10 tank like the amx 30b
I think they mean the sabot rounds that look like mini rockets @last viper
No because it simply doesn’t fit it’s too modern for the game
Again, it's literraly a Centurion with with a 105mm cannon, why it could be on the game
Oh that is sabot
M60a2 starship for tier 10
How about no
Bro, you should play WT instead of blitz @last viper
I’ll play with you at times if you do
wt doesn’t run on my iPad Pro
War thunder is for people wanting to break their controllers/mouse
If you have an iPad Pro then you probably have a PC too @last viper
You could get insta killed by a tank after putting 50 rounds in it
but is the fv183 good with double shoot?
At close range? Yes
Long distances? No @lime rapids
My power supply started smoking yesterday and I’m ordering a new one so it’s out for a few days @hollow moth
Yes It’s dispersion is so bad normally it turns into a laser with double shot
Ok, so? It's not a reason to turn blitz into WT @last viper
ok
I learnt from personal experience as a mauschen
@late relic
Left is Kpfpz, Right is K-91
Why does 1 tank carry 2 types of AP?
one has more pen one has more damage
The first round is normal ammo, the second usually have more pen @lime rapids
Is isu 130 worth the money
Also future you ever find a clan after EMPRE failed to recruit you lol
?
ISU 130 isn’t worth the money
Is isu 130 worth the money
@last viper excuse me what? I’ve never heard of that in my life
Will be more worth if you just get the original ISU-152 and equip it with BL-10
it's a tank with the best cannon of the tier 8 @last viper
Also future you ever find a clan after EMPRE failed to recruit you lol
@versed tapir ye
I still find that funny ever after I switching clans
So how long has the isu-130 existed because I’ve never seen or heard of it untill now
It’s been around for quite some time
It’s been here for years
They rarely sell it though
It's been a round for a while but honestly I own it but constantly forget it exists. Prefer the Isu-152
Can’t be hard to master then
is the IS-7 that easy to get racked?
What is the best use of gold? Converting xp to free xp? buying tank slots? buying premium tanks?
I want the amx 13 57 rn
Buying premis
What is the best use of gold? Converting xp to free xp? buying tank slots? buying premium tanks?
@solid gate save it for the IS-5 or LOWË
I honestly haven't seen is7 getting racked as often as people claim
How much are those
amx 13 57 would be so annoying with double shot and jagged shells
Buying prem tanks and converting xp into free xp are what i use gold for. That and occasionally finishing off events.
@fast compass I had jag 100 earlier shot in the ammorack spot a few times no damage to the rack it seems just very luck based
I honestly haven't seen is7 getting racked as often as people claim
@fast compass I have
And/or people don't run protective kit and the equipment
Tankenstein: hold my beer
@lime rapids yes, it's on the most inconvenient position that it could be
@last viper go for the Type 62, it's an actual OP light and pretty rare tho
Nope, Type 62 will catch you @versed tapir
I have a type 62 dragon already
People say t29 is the best heavy of tier 7 but tbh I’ve tried it and it still felt horrible to use
Tankenstein: hold my beer
non-argument, pay more the WG boe
Which is better KV-1S or KV-2?
Kv-1s
Both are bad, but KV-1S is less bad @lime rapids
KV1-S, by a land slide, at least it is a normal tank experience
So the short answer is Kv-1s is better.
how are they both bad??
Both are bad, but KV-1S is less bad @lime rapids
@hollow moth
KV2 is bad in a way that it is a literal joke tank
KV1-S is an uptiered KV1 but at least has a decent gun
KV1-S, by a land slide, at least it is a normal tank experience
@solid gate wdym?
kv2 is a derp with that gun
Kv-1s is just a is and kv-1 mixed In the worse ways
so 1s or kv-2?
KV-2: No good armor, no good agility, no giant HP pool, tottaly blind precision, extremely slow reload, low pen, etc
KV-1S: No good armor, meh speed, long reload gun, blind gun, the damage is quite good but not worth enough the cons of this gun, etc
Both are bad but go for KV-1S @lime rapids
Depends on your endgame
KV1-S for sure my guy
ok
either way i would get kv-1s because you can go both lines is line is annoying af with their sides
Both are not great maybe but at least it is not as much of a joke as KV2
the derp gun is good IF you are on the winning team
even then, if you got no shots in, you'll probably lose credits because it is a t6
you can play like you did with kv1 with the kv1s at least
👍
Ight ima sleep night guys
your play style wont need radical changes to play a tank
🌝
Ight ima sleep night guys
@versed tapir
remember your hull almost is just as vulnerable as as it used to with kv1, people will pen you on the front still
i know
it is just that you can get a big 400 alpha gun down the road so you trade shots with 200 more damage avg
I think italian tanks should be a separate tech tree
@candid fiber progetto sounds.
I was thinking of the opposite, merger of europe tanks and french tanks
if they add just a bit more european tanks in between there to spice it up it could really be its own proper tech tree
Is tiger 2 a good tank
It's e🅱ic
Ok I'll buy it then
Should I get the better gun first or the better turret
I'm pretty sure hitler approved the panther as a heavy tank
@candid fiber Wrong
turret cuz its EZ penn for all tier 7 and 8 of tiger 2
German tanks with a gun caliber between 37 and 75mm were considered as medium tanks, regardless of their weight/armor.
Unless it was designed for a special task such as a break through tank or in the panther's case a heavy for the medium battalion
Just on the KV2 vs KV1S debate I think that people say the gun is less accurate than it plays, if you are doing what heavy tanks do and side scrape out of a corner and shoot 30 meters accuracy isn’t a huge factor , and the kv2 has pretty good mobility, and no, HE is the way
I am always looking for HE pens, I mean for example you can pen the Tiger I, Tiger P, and T29 in the side with HE for 1000 HP, it just takes finesse
yeag i know
That’s only if the Tiger is perfectly sideways and you are running CS. Also, you have to not hit the tracks.
Didn’t know you considered this as « good mobility »
I am a Maus fanatic, everything is good mobility, the stock Mauschen still gives me nightmares
Has no camo yet somehow this thing still never gets spotted by my lights
Yeah i know
At T5-7 if there is a KV-2 in the enemy team just blindshoot bushes in the spawn and you’ll hit it.
Depends if they are a pro or not, only the best KRONO players know which spawn bushes to effectively play there KV2 from
Why does upgraded panther have more accuracy than stock grille
That’s quite accurate, more accurate than my maxed obj 268
Most good players I know stay away from the KV-2 lol
Yeah, I’m just bad at the game and t6 clubbing brings me joy
@snow steeple because grille is a 15cm so by default it’s less accurate
Kv2 isn't necessarily good nowadays
^
Just get a Smasher or SU-152, at least they can compensate their crap AP pen by good prammo pen.
The KV-2 is a piñata for roughly everyone at T6-7.
I still wanna know wargamings sooo justifiable reasoning in giving smasher 86 HE pen and full on alpha meanwhile kpz is a thing
Well by that Logic I should just play ISU Admiral
The ISU has a very good gun compensating it’s mediocre mobility and armor. The KV-2 has none of the 3.
its mobility is surprisingly good
^, the KV2 is the equivalent of the 183 in my mind, given the reload and the ratio of alpha to same tier hp pools, it just doesn’t get any pen sadly
183 can bring how many rounds to a match again? 🤣
KV-2 can oneshot equal tier tanks without fire or ammorack, the FV can't
Ok
#relevant
That's funny
what r your thoughts on the FV4202?
definition of shit
what r your thoughts on the FV4202?
No.
like is it really that bad, or can ya make it shine in the hands of an experienced player?
That applies to all tanks but it’s generally just ehh
its a bad tank, you literally have to have a 7k wn8 to actually be good in it
Fv4202 is generally mediocre outside of random battles. It’s a fun tank for randoms, but it isn’t a competitive tank for tier ten
FV2402 shouldnt be a medium tank cause of crap the armour is
needs turret buff
4202 is basically just for having fun with hesh
yes turret needs serious buff and HESH is in the vickers which is more fun
Bad weather makes my tank acting weird
tonk
Vickers doesn't have 210 hesh though. 4202 does iirc
@strange crag Basically, if you are an experienced, competent player, you can make the tank work fine, but you would never use it in ratings or a tournament. It’s just that there are better options, its a fun tank when you can hit the hesh though lol
Vickers is more fun by far
also has trollish bouncy upper hull
Vickers is a medium with light tank benefits. Ofc it is fun
yep, thats y its better
vickers OP turret
I never said 4202 was better than vickers though
i didnt say that the 4202 was better neither XD, Vickers is just better and more fun than the 4202
if you want fun with HESH, play the Cent. 7/1
Vickers is better and more fun than a fair few mediums in tier 10.
yep, Vickers does need a minor nerf in a way
Bruh if E-75 i going to make this amount of money I won't have to worry about tank costs lol
How to do 1300 damage in a tier 5 and still lose:(
well because teammates sometimes dont know what they are supposed to do whilst the enemy team are entirely working toghter
@random meadow I said it as simplistic as i could
Equipment for the Vickers CR?
I've done grinded vickers and T57, and now i want to grind russian meds, and I'll grind for obj 140, should i go for it or T62?
T62 for sure, 140 just can't really compete with the significantly better turret and more depression
Does Obj 140 have some advantage above T62?
Speed
And Ap shell, and a bit better accuracy on the move (which is mitigated be the better base dispersion of the T62 tho), and slightly better hull armour.
get the 430u
Well, I'm on the way to get the leopard 1 and Vickers L
im at the standard b
the progetto 65 is a good tank
It's decent
It was op...now it's just good.
Btw, I'm currently at 314 parts. It's funny coz I've never gotten an ace tanker so far
Equipment for Vickers CR?
Progetto 65 is crazy good imo. It's a breath of fresh air after that trashy Standard B. I got an ace on my first game in it (75% crew)
trashy? Its literally one of the best tier 9s and it's a med in a heavy meta...
But it has no armor and the reloads are tragic. You always have to be super careful, and you have no depression over the butt.
Equipment for Vickers CR?
@lost tree this is mine
You gotta play a few dozen games to identify what equipment suits you best
The reloads really aren't tragic at all, especially for a tier 9 and it has mobility, above average clip potential and HEP to make up for the armour which is HE resistant from the front so all you need 🤷♀️
I guess you're right... I still feel much more confident with my T-54
Is the comet a good tank
I don't even know what I like anymore
Can't play the tiger 2
Can't play the t44
Maybe I am just trash
I liked the T-44. Stock Comet is not very good.
It's such a beautiful tank but it's so difficult to play(t44)
You must undestand that the armor is actually weak (at least on the hull. Other than that, the gun is good, and the mobility is great)
I aced my t69 on stock tho
Only tier 8 I like
Ever considered playing the KV-2 or the US lights?
Ever considered playing the KV-2 or the US lights?
@true delta
No but now the grind is gonna be too long
I wasted 22 k free xp on tiger 2
I don't know what your play style is, but the US lights were a breeze for me to grind
Hmm,il give them a try
Can't wait to he the crap out of people with t49 lmao
Each US light is special in its own way
Chaffee: small target, good alpha. DO use the premium gas.
Bulldog: can have an auto-reloader, is very mobile.
T49: finally has a derp, but the HE is very expensive.
T92E1: super small target, troll armor, ATGMs, HE is afffordable.
Just don't use autoloader bulldog...
There is no problem with using it
I used the regular gun, but it's a possibility
Regular gun is better for me
@balmy wagon thx
is hellcat or jackson good?
both are very good
i have hellcat but i am thinking to research and buy jackson
hellcat is reallly good tank destroyer, it is fast, has a good reload time and also does 225 damage+
jackson has a better armour and reloading time but not as fast has hellcat
Nah, Jackson armor isn't really any better. Basically the tradeoff is Jackson has superior DPM in exchange for less mobility and camo, albeit the DPM advantage of the Jackson is substantial
Lovely Tank isnt it?
😃
Niiccee 👌
I rly want to spend my gold for Legendary camo, but if black friday or Christmas sale appear, I'll have no gold if i but Legendary camo, is it worth it or not?
Do you have an offer for that camo? Otherwise I'd say save the gold
Should I sell my T-62A to get the t54 which then grind for the obj. 140 which would most likely get a buff eventually
Why iam asking this is because I've been doing horrible in it and my play style doesnt fit it
never sell a tier 10
Do you have an offer for that camo? Otherwise I'd say save the gold
Nah i don't have it, but maybe I'll buy gold for it, but I'm confused
300 parts so far and I'm loving this
Anyone play console world of tanks?
I'm enjoying the grind with my firelfly
1.5k damage and class 1
😄
Although I don't know which line to grind in future
Hey, do anyone remember, was gravedigger for gold in stores last halloween? Really want to pick it up(if in crates then sadly nope) bcs it looks quite cool
Gravedigger was only available via crates but it comes back contstantly via crates. You might see it during the Winter Fest where a lot of tanks go on the market even rare ones.
Oh right, the fest and black market also, gotta save it for then but those prices are quite high
it actually shouldn't be too expensive, there will be so many other rare/coveted tanks that you should be able to get one for pretty cheap.
For the gravedigger the prices won't likely be very high as long as you wait and it's unlikely to sell out
Alright, thx for help, i guess 4-5k max?
It'll probably start at an unreasonable price of about 10k gold of it's in the showcase and then drop to about 5-6k
I have 240 parts
Is it ok?
You have lots of time still, just keep doing what you have been and you'll get the E 75 TS
Ok
I hv 331 currently
bout to buy the T-44, anything I should know?
low pen
do not ever use the 122 on the t44
The ammo rack is on the front left side, try to angle left, rather than right against tanks
T-44 also trades more than brawls because the kinda sluggish reload but high alpha
Ffs, I need credits, i grinded vickers and T57, but I don't have any credits left
wish me luck
Great medium. Very flexible. Bad bull armor, but great mobility.
@solid gate 175%
Woah, that's better than my current only premium
More drive to grind has been acquired!!!
Should I sell my tiger2 for the T-54?
Grind the credits instead of selling your tanks.
More drive to grind has been acquired!!!
Well yeah you're in a good start because you can have a free premium to grind your credits.
Vickers light is crazy for sure, 1 vs 4 and i kill 3 of them then lose by capture point, that's a sad game afterall because i miss my HE to reset jageroo capture point, i might win if i do it then circle him
I like vickers, buff em pls hahahahaha
Should I sell my tiger2 for the T-54?
@solid gate Very good trade off. T-54 is a killer beast. Even stock it's decent. Even in a tier X match-up, I feel confident.
"Stock it's decent" suffer in T7 gun
I'm not worried about stock I pre researched every module with free Xp
"Stock it's decent" suffer in T7 gun
@balmy wagon No, the stock gun is the top gun on the T-44
If you go on T44 line.
T 54 ltwt line just got upgraded engine without gun, all you need is Free xp
Should I sell my tiger2 for the T-54 ?
@solid gate don't sell a tank if you didn't research it's successor. The Tiger II is a great tanks worth keeping in the garage.
after you get the tier 10 tank for the t 54 are u going to go on the e 100 line? because if u are dont sell it
All I usually hear is complaint about the Tiger II
wait, stock gun is the top gun on T-44?
I thought it was LB-1 that was the best overall
it is
also dang I am so much better at the T-43 than the T-44
no you don't. the upper plate and sides are better.
I was in my Type 61, and a T92E1 rushed me. 1st bounce was on his side and it was not poorly aimed. the second one I was facehugging and aiming DIRECTLY FROM ABOVE on his f upper plate. Guess what? F BOUNCE. I'm super mad bc this cost me a good game, likely an Ace. And it's not from today these shitters get stupid bounces. I have both T92 and Sheridan and I confirm the broken armor. Please WG, consider doing something about it.
T92E1 armor still is annoying, but it's better than the pre nerf condition.
T92E1 armor still is annoying, but it's better than the pre nerf condition.
@glass relic it only is not as broken as it was, but still OP and WG seem to don't care
Can you get the mark I?
The armor is still a problem on t92 but compared to how it was before it’s much better never aim directly at the sides aim in the track area and the UFP is still unreliable turret shots in close up will do
It still need precaution when shooting it, since It'll reduce the chances of not shooting at the correct place.
A cent 7/1 with 270 pen sees tons of red spots on those little buggers
KV-2 or KV-1S which one would you guys prefer?
1S by far. Good mobility, decent turret, alpha.
Kv-2 is pure fun, it's awesome how it can 1 shot tanks
the KV-2 is good for the memes and oneshotting tanks, but its reload (I think?) is the longest in the game and it's armor, while trollish on the front and the turret, isnt good enough to sit in front of opponents..especially with one of the smallest hitpoint pools at tier 6. The KV-1S is faster with a more reliable gun and just a bit faster reload, okayish armor and with enough alpha to shave off almost half of any tanks hitpoints at tier 6. So if you want to have a better tank, go for the KV-1S
Kv2 is a crap tank that just gets spammed for memes. If you care at all about playing well and helping your team win, get the Kv-1S
While I don't agree that the KV-2 is an awful tank, the KV-1S is a lot better
nah it is a notch above awful. It is crap. Lol.
KV-2 is kinda OP because of the DPM tho
Mm..See, the HE is where I disagree. With the high explosive rounds, you can pretty much always do damage, and will do quite a bit to tanks your tier that arent heavies..and one single AP round into any tank at its tier or at tier 5 will decimate their hp pool. IMO, the KV-2 is a geniune heavy tank when at top tier, a second-line derp gun for medium route for tier 6, and pretty much only works at killing unsuspecting light tanks in tier 7
Is IS 3 good?
Yes
Hmmm
I have most of my masteries from my IS-3
wut should I go for next?
Kv1s, SU152, or T54, all depends on what playstyle you prefer
How would an easy eight Sherman do against a tiger 1?
Need a Buy T-62A
Is the AC IV Sentinel a good tank?
Yes
No
Why?
I wanna hear people's opinions on it.
wut should I go for next?
@olive badge how did ya get 50% discount on tier 10 lol?
Yes.
All inclusive event i believe, or combine 3 25% discount
@scarlet echo Aren't they both on the same line?
But which one is good for me
I'm not so sure but it depends on how you play.
Vickers Cruiser is so good mmm
Yep, it's best tier for tier
Oh nice
ik this doesn't have anything to do with blitz but does anyone know what tank this is or looks like?
It kinda looks like a deformed t14
I’m not familiar with the ZTZ family whatsoever I don’t know if that’s a mash up since later ztz tanks don’t have a hull like a t-72-T90
ik this doesn't have anything to do with blitz but does anyone know what tank this is or looks like?
@honest turtle it looks awfully similar to a modern Russian T 90
Just say "ZTZ turret on T-90 hull"
Yea lol
@olive badge depends on your playing, If you are really good in using lights i prefer u the T54
trust me that tank is a really good light and the armour is really good (for a light thank)
if you are going for heavies go for KV1S or KV2, depends on your play and your wish
IS 7 is the best one
all the tanks are good but it depends on ur play.......
Hey
Should there be a FV4005 stage 1 in the game or nah?
No
Mmmmmhm?
Unless you wanna reason why another universally hated gun should exist fine by me it can never happen
WG ever considered double-barreled tanks?
@solid gate we already got helsing as a "ish double barreled" And now a new tank is coming with a 3shot gun.
But I doubt they'll add the Russian twobarreled tanks. It would kill the MM completely
Man I just unlock the type 61 and if you play sneaky is really strong
@solid gate read #devs-answers they answered it just yesterday
ik this doesn't have anything to do with blitz but does anyone know what tank this is or looks like?
@honest turtle it looks like T-55A
That’s not a t55A at all
It reminds me of a T-14 Armata turret placed on a T-90M hull
what gun do you guys prefer on SU-101?!
122mm
Hey guys what do you get if you get second certificate of E 75 TS?
1.5million credits
Oh so no gold huh
It is a premium not a collector. That is its selling price.
Are there any leaked images of the next battle pass tanks
Not leaked when they are already released clips of the tank. Check the coming soon video on the official YouTube channel
Oh ok thanks
Heard there should be a German tank and I’m German so I’m in a good mood ;l
What tank is the Agent from? Like eraser from amx 44
VK28.01, although I believe that I saw something that said it's not a new tank it's just a camo? I'm not entirely sure about that but it's worth bearing in mind @sullen jolt
Ok thanks man
First battle in k v 3 in my second account
The new VK28. 01, the "agent" is not a modified tank at all. It's just an exact version of the tech tree tank with diff camo you can only get via purchasing battle pass
Source?
Imagine tier 11s coming in the game.
Well higher tiers that are higher than tier 10 would then start to introduce modern tanks that will change it overall and possibly open WoTB to more things that they can do
Quick question lads..how should I use the RHM's stock gun? It's DPM is awful, and while it has good pen the thing can be rather awkward to use, especially with the RHM's lacking mobility and turret rotation speed (I'm at 83% crew, so that might change but I doubt it) and I'm nowhere near getting the top gun yet
Shoot and don't get shot. Reset camo after every shot. Use the turret to get to awkward positions. And to stress this again:
Don't get shot
Snipe, do not camp. You have enough mobility to get around, so don't just park your tank if you dont have shots
Yeah, I've noticed how much the RHM just gets shredded if any tank as much as farts on you. It's hard for me to use it, since I'm used to tanks like the Nashorn, Emil or the Jpanther, where you either have mobility, good armor, or great gun depression to use them more aggressively
RHM makes up for it's current lack of fire power with the 12.8 by way of ok mobility and very high camo
And the shots that you do take will hurt with the accuracy and pen
Yeah..it'll take some time to get used to since I'm generally a very aggressive player while I still have hitpoints to spare
With the RHM you have to focus more on defending your allies
Aggressive + 15cm rhm is a good combo
128 not so much
mm..good to know. By the way, I find it hilarious that the Sturer Emil's top gun outreloads the RHM's stock gun
Turret > any other td trait
They are different designs
We won't see that anytime soon
mm, turrets are nice but I prefer mobility or armor over a turret
@wispy rain its basically a Su 130PM.
Off brand skorp
Off brand skorp with the most random bounces ever
You cannot convince me that it can be HE penned.
@keen escarp The 130PMs gun is that bad DPM wise?
I love railing a rhm with a 152mm
oh its fun loading HE and slapping an opposing RHM across the face for 500+ damage but usually I don't try unless I can get out of dodge in time because their 15cm hits a lot harder than my dinky 12.8 can
huh..weird. Thought the PM had a better reload tbh
it's an 83% crew, but still the reload is pretty bad for a 122 at tier 8..maybe I'm just used to the ISU's 8 second reload on it's 122s
alright, time for the noob question..the heck do people angle the Tiger 2? The hull sides and the turret sides are so much weaker than the front that it seems pointless, yet people do it and it works
I do angle when i have coner, or do some wiggle to avoid hull shot
dont you want to bait a frontal hull shot on the Tiger 2? I thought that was it's strongest armor by a long shot
With coner we can get more flexibility
You don’t angle the tiger II turret because of the sides, maybe wiggle it to bait into the gun.
The hull you can angle, but you have to be careful of the sides too. How much you can angle the hull does also depend on what you are angling against, what caliber of gun the enemy tank has and its penetration values etc
ooohhh okay
I need opinions and tips for amx 12t
Should I sell my T-54 (I've already gotten the T-62A) and get the centurion 7/1 ?
Do you have enough free xp to get TOP gun?
I would rather grind silver tho@solid gate
Too late I'm grinding the cent and I love it
My type of tank and it fits my play style, plus I do love a cup of tea
If you have free xp to research top gun, then i would go
I got the E75 TS, but apparently lost my first 3 games in it coz of donkey players. :(
Look at the m4 rev omg
Why does the bullet bounce off the armor under tank when there is no red?
RNG, sometimes. You can be aiming at a perfectly flat, easily pennable part of the tank and still bounce because RNGesus said “No!”
Or spaced armour can appear penetratable, although you can't go trough the main armour underneath.
Or the you got the worse value of the +/- 5% pen scale. :D
Alright, so I found another missile arty boy, 4 arty shots, all them hit the target and 3 of the penetrated
Bring back the sherman jumbo!!!!!!
1st- They brought back Jumbo in some tournament seasons agor
2nd- If you had Jumbo on your garage before, you can restore it and other collector tanks with a VRT
3rd- Jumbo lost the second turret and the good cannon, so it's not worth play it nowadays
@autumn frigate
Calculated aggro and use your crazy gun’s potential
Sounds easy
It is.
The Panther is arguably the best t7 med with the T-34-1. Only real drawback is the gun depression (6 degrees) with a fairly tall profile.
Im trying to get tiger II after that
The Panther is worth keeping in your garage. Strong armor for a t7 medium, decent mobility and an excellent gun (the aim time is sometimes a bit long-ish considering how fast the reload is but that can be dealt with.
Nice. Ty
any thoughts on Lowe vs E75 TS?
@cyan lily Lowe has been powercrept armor-wise. The E 75 TS had better armor and is a tad bit faster than the Lowe. On the other hand the Lowe has a better gun... better dispersion and pen but they both share similar dpm and the same alpha damage.
As an owner of the Lowe, I can also say it’s boring (only my opinion)
As anyone tipped over in a tank?
I don’t think you can, the game doesn’t allow you to, it rights you back up which is nice for like gravity mode cause everyone would be stuck then
No? You can shoot to flip back over in gravity if you do flip
I don’t think I’ve seen anyone flip all the way around
yea it is not possible. the physics engine doesn't allow it
Ok
It's technically possible, but only with the flying bugs where you get launched, the kinetics are so fast sometimes that the tank ignores the engine and can flip, but that's the only time and it's practically impossible to do outside of training rooms
Do you doubt my ability to launch batchats with my maus in randoms?
I'm wondering, should I get the t34(the prem one) or should I wait for another tank in the shop
The T34 deal is really good I would strongly recommend it
Nice credit + T34 itself + camo
What the Balance hack . Lol the game is rigged Some times in favor sometimes in epic mismatch , Some heavy tanks are to slow to Battle light tanks , we all know , Some TD,s wont pirce armor of same tier well , Some medium tanks dont fit in Thérè Roll . We all know it ingame . I suggest wargaming to find our underpreforming tanks , either fix tier or buff Some features to fix tier performance fix turn turret while turning tank issue for heavy tanks to deal with light stuff and perhaps tune performance of under preforming TD . I not especially call 1 as bad but have just balance issues realizing some steps of techtree unlocking as cruelty and some as easy as hell . Have 80% German techtree unlocked and in the garage lol with 3 tier 10 techtree tanks and comming very soon my forth one . JpzE100 was my first , it performed less good as the jagdtieger , the gun is a bit to slow for close combat . To be fair it penetrate most thick armor , the enhanced settings make it pierce 400 mm with golden rounds but less DPM , with that settings sometimes it wil still not pierce some shots that are not overangeled , the ammo cost makes also profit an hard to get issue
Cost per damage/mm pen should also be considered to make ammo not useless to earnings without boosters
Some wins kills barely make even with boosters without loosing armor and delivering 2k+damage
Just take a break...
Ok thanks for the tip, I'm still on the maybe side though
how do I grind the strv/m42 its literal hell
@fair scaffold use the gun depression to the max
Yes, the tank itself is pretty mediocre, it’s just your average tier 5 medium tank. But remember, you have 15 degrees of gun depression. Get into positions where the enemies will struggle to shoot you, like steep hills and similar places. Getting above enemies is also a very strong option as the depression is very very good. Remember, your armor is non existent and watch out for the 7 secs of reload, you don’t wanna be too agro with it.
Thanks @wary beacon
sooooo....i have the e 75 ts now, but im doing either good or terrible, in some matches i block dmg, but in other matches i keep dying, which are good tactics to properly play this tank
@fluid sand Imagine playing the e100 at tier 8. Use the angling to the max, get the turret into good positions. Not showing your lower plate is key. You want to try and bait shots with your upper hull as it’s impossible to penetrate it. You do want to be pushing into the heavy side, as speed is very low and you are made to fight against them. Although it may look it has less than it, it boasts an impressive 10 degrees of gun depression. Use hills and hard spots for enemies to shoot at you, so with the pretty decent gun, you can get shots and when the time is right, push maximizing your armor.
so the main thing about the ts is angling, and angling, hide the lfp, work alongside allies, and exploit the gun depression
yep, it’s that. I could say it’s a bit worse, but premium, tiger 2.
tiger 2 is op from the front
if you over exploit this things upper plate, it is too. but that lower plate really is weak
I say peak a boo, but if youre too scared, or unexperienced with angling, i say distract them, by shooting and staying still and let the other tanks hit them.
but the main thing i fear in this tank, are tank destroyers, their guns really hurt and pen hard tho
Most 400 alpha tanks I play have only 175mm pen, so the 75ts can't even be penned straight on the broadside with no angling...
Tds at t8 can eat the 75 for lunch, especially if they have experience
I remember surviving 2 shots from a Bl-10 in my 13 90 cuz the shells hit the sprocket wheels
@fluid sand once I did 0 damage on a Leopard with HE in my kV2
Smh
@fluid sand once I did 0 damage on a Leopard with HE in my kV2
@fair scaffold Cuz the shell hit either the tracks or the sprocket wheel?
No, not a track or sprocket, I think it was just one of those "one in a million" shots
No, not a track or sprocket, I think it was just one of those "one in a million" shots
@fair scaffold oohh
@fluid sand how do you do that quote thing?
Wdym?
the grey line thing
You press the 3 dot button at what someone typed and press quote
testing,
You press the 3 dot button at what someone typed and press quote
@fluid sand
yes that one
Cool thx
Is the british td line worth grinding? Not for the tier 10, but just up to the tier 8.
Which one? @solid gate
The heavy td line with lots of frontal armor.
Yeah, that's a fat no. That line is notoriously terrible, and the only reason anyone plays it is to get to the 183
You'd be pretty hard pressed to find a single player that likes that line, especially the AT-8 and AT-7
The british t7, Black Prince, had a beautiful dpm and armour
@solid gate He's talking specifically about the non-turreted TD line
You seem very lost...
I am, been a long week smh
haha silly goose
Buff the tank
You'd be pretty hard pressed to find a single player that likes that line, especially the AT-8 and AT-7
@wise moth i like at 8
I mean, I don’t play it for fun but I liked the At-7
So uhh I tried to HE a Hetzer from side twice, and it failed to pen.
Using St.Emil with upgraded cannon, like, am I missing something?
Dont hit the tracks
damn AT 5, 7, 8 and tortoise is my nightmares
I actually did like the AT-7, and AT-15 was one my favourite tier 8 TD's. I managed to get 2k average damage in it somehow back then, and it worked perfectly fine with angling and whatnot.
But with all the stupid heavy buffs now...i don't know.
It used to have that monstrous dpm advantage tied together with heavy-like hp. Now you don't have the hp advantage anymore for 1v1
The armor no longer works with all the new tanks
I used to really like it, but nothing in tier 8 that has been introduced recently even struggles to pen it
@hollow notch It wasn't that long time ago tho. Like maximum one year has passed since i grinded the AT-15, so sadly it has been for a long time as you described. I'm most worried about the unnecessary hp buffs.
Meh, AT-15 is easy pen with good cannons
God I hate the AT tanks so much and their stupid frontal armor
AT tanks are easy to pen which just by shooting their Cupola's
The at15 is an easy pen basically everywhere
You can even shoot it's mantlet.
Mantlet is the weakest part
Their cupolas are not that easy to hit I might add, they have a good reload and you will get hit once AT LEAST while trying hit their weakspots one on one
Comet ap goes right through the hole the gun sticks out of
I never had issues or struggle hitting their Cupola's... It's quite a big target to hit
When there's 100 meters, yeah, it is incredibly easy. Then it gets messy depending how far away youre and if they had spotted you
This is just sad
Even if far you still can hit it, on average you supposed to be able to hit it quite easy unless if you're using Russian 122mm's gun and inaccurate guns at range.
And I find it funny AT-15 is far easier to HE on the back unlike AT-15A.
Stock tank? No problem
Wym cupolas aren’t easy to hit it’s literally extended right above the tall profile
Okay that's new for me
how to play stock p.43 bis?
just stay at the back
Like not literaly at the back, but stand right behind your friends, and shoot only when the enemy's just fired
What should I upgrade first on my stock P.43 bis - turret and gun, tracks, or both engines?
Most of the time, I go for the engine, cuz it improves the mobility the best. I utterly need to be mobile on the battlefield. That's my play style. I hate being sluggish. But the gun's a viable option too, just make sure the turret does not exceed the tracks' maximum load.
God I hate the AT tanks so much and their stupid frontal armor
@solid gate Or pen the tracks, works well 50% of the time
@true delta thanks for your advice
tfw im not fast enough to flank ATs even after i track them
Petition to rename Smasher to Reaper. Because it sounds cooler and more fitting
tfw im not fast enough to flank ATs even after i track them
@solid gate if you cant flank, then track, allow your allies to do the rest
petition to remove smasher from the game instead
Petition to buff the smasher
7.3 patch notes:
Buffs:
Smasher: You now win the match instantly
Petition to make the smasher a tier 6
smasher should be made into a tier 8 so players using the tank get what's coming to them, death
It would be bad if it was a tier 8. It lacks the armor and the pen. Tier 8 heavys are a different beast
which is why i said that, smasher is too strong in its own tier
up tier smasher to t8 and let them die
Make smasher a tier 5*
Legit one shots everything it sees and nothing can pen it and has ridiculous hp
make it a tier 3-4 so it one shots ke-ni otsu's instead
imagine if eraser wasnt an ARL reskin with 100 more alpha 😩
Eraser was an arl reskin with the worse gun equipped
Its fortunate for us WG put the 105mm instead of the copy of 90mm one since it'll make tech tree one more fitting and better to use.
i see more erasers dealing 300+ dmg than ARLs, they do 200 something dmg
Tbh thats fine. Those who pay get a rather unique looking tank without completely breaking the tier even more
how much more can they break the tier 5 to 7 meta KEK
Arl has a tier 8 90mm gun(DCA 45) which gives it 2k dpm and 212mm pen at tier 6. The 105mm gun isn't bad on the arl, its just a worse choice
just return to removed tech tree tanks and it'd balanced more imo
idk why they even did that
why'd you remove actual content from the game lol seriously someone explain
They did that to make the tech tree more linear for new players while removing sealclubbing
first part of your argument is not relevant
Honestly though. 5.5 was poorly handled. I mean even though pc version did the same and removed a ton of tanks from the tech tree they are still available to purchase with credits anytime
had they truly removed those tanks from the game I couldve understood that, content reduction for the sake of simplicity but those tanks are still there just not available
Yeah. Like i said pc handled ut much better. But still they could have just nerfed the stats of the seal clubbing tanks instead of removing over half of the lower tiers
for example, what should an average new pz iv d player expect when they see a DW2
Anyways at this point it is just beating a dead horse. For 5.5 to be reverted wg has to accept that it was a mistake which they never will
why not, not like they'd lose customers, i honestly would wager 10 bucks they'd gain even more
im sure they lost a lot of players over the 5.5 change
It is a bit more complicated now that they have sold many of these old tech tree tanks for money
okay so that policy about paid tanks is both nice and bad
it is good in the sense that you truly know what youre paying for and you wont be scammed out of it but it also hurts the game irreperably
with literally every new paid tank added you add something that'll never change
the thing is they can just balance the tanks that are free to make the game better but they also wont do that
i know you must earn money and pay the bills but this feels too much
you can just make a huge balance change that rebalances the tech tree in a way that premiums arent just objective improvements over tech tree tanks anymore
Well they are collectors (these low tier tanks), and wg sells them with the warning that collectors can be nerfed.
The issue arises when you start thinking about what will happen to the people who paid real money for these tanks if they are reintroduced to the tech tree. I am pretty sure that will end up being termed as a scam.
collectors can be nerfed? that pretty much means they can revert the tech tree changes and it'd be the same thing as the initial change
it was a scam to remove those tanks and sell em so it will stay a scam to reintroduce them, just say it is what it is and be done with it
On the long run you'll be making the game better
is protego 85 good or is it meh
Good
65 you mean? It's crazy good
It isn't as good as it used to be but yeah it is still great and is very unique as it boasts an autoreloading system (the only one in tier 10 until the Kranvagn debuts)
It's a great and workable medium, I personally still like it but yeah it's not good as it was used to be, but now it's a pretty Balance n mediocre with unique auto reloading 350 alpha gun. I personally would recommend just play the Standard B for it's HEP capabilities
That's interesting. I hated the Standard B. I can't stand no armor. I guess it depends a lot on your play style, but since I started the game playing the soviet meds, I like having armor on the turret.
You do have troll armor on the Progetto 65
can anyone tell which one among the new swedish line won't be a pain to grind?
the tier 6 one seems to be the best
hmm
maybe I'll get top modules on Emil directly. So, minimal free xp usage on the leo
emil 2 will get penned all day long from heat, emil 1 if slightly angled can get penned in the side cheeks of the turret and you can pen it through the gun mantled if its looking directly at you (that is if you have high enough pen like 255). Kranvagn just seems meh and strv for the tier 5 looks to be decent with a huge paper thin profile
ya...Kranvagn became meh due to mobility nerf and just 8 degrees of depression. What abt the leo?
the tier 6 one seems to be the best
ya, but any thoughts on the Leo?
the armor looks to be a bit troll specifically speaking on the upper plate. The gun seems usable especially with that 290 alpha. mobility wise I would assume drives like a 62a so not bad either
Kk
Tiger 2 is it good?? And even E75 it's oo when stock also??
really good
Best tier 8 tech tree tonk maybe aside from the 301
very thicc armor
Lol thx I maxed out with 200 battles and lol 200class3 and 64class 2 and 10 class 1 and even researched E75
Oh and what's 301 sorry if I asked a noob question @pastel drum
Fv301
Oh ok nice yeh thts a good DPM with maxed tank
Is VK meaning Versuchskonstrukt (prototype construction) or Vollkettenfahrzeug (fully chained vehicle) I'm sorry im translating with my own English skills which are meh
And second question: Is E75TS worth playing
Yeh good credit efficient and sux in free exp
Ok thx
Free premium..Yes
Okidoki
@sullen jolt yes
what gun does the RHM Borsig use
Gun 12,8 cm Kanone 44 L/55
Gun 15 cm Pak L/29.5
I have a question, so when I bought the armor buff on the equipment, does it add an amount of armor that actually helps? I bought it for my Tiger 1
First you can change it Everytime.
Second: Depends on what shells are incoming. If you are hit with a gun that penetrates 100 mm armor and you have 100mm armor, the buff is giving you for example 5 mm extra armor, then the shell doesn't make any damage
I suppose being able to reflect more rounds would be better than a 90 point health buff
For me I found the 4% buff to be useless unless you have a sizeable thickness of raw armor
Would 165 points of armor make a noticeable difference with the buff?
Extra armour is only really useful if you have a tank that is on the edge of being penned and has angled armour. This doesn't really apply to the tiger, so that means the extra armour won't really give you any more bounces, but the extra hp will help you in every single game
^
I rarely use the extra armour, but some tanks that I do are things like the IS6. Most tanks can pen it just about, so the extra armour thickness will help to push the armour over then pen threshold for quite a few tanks so it makes a more noticeable difference. Even then using the extra hp isnt a bad idea, it's just not quite as useful depending on your playstyle
Thanks lads, I guess I’ll get back to playing then
Good hunt
sometimes happens that we lose but i get more XP than all players (including enemies)
e100 ia good with extra armour because mediums can only just pen the turret with their heat
7 more pieces and im getting that e75 ts wooooooo
Vk 30.01D or the vk28.01 ?
@solid gate did you pay?
28.01. 30.01 is mediocre.
nope
then how?
Which one?
I paid nothing
then how?
@foggy obsidian
If there are no tricks involved and I just need the 415 blue certificates I will be getting the tank soon. I have 413 right now.
I haven't paid either, just playing normally and I am nearly at 400
Aaaand, unlocked it
I don't plan on spending money on this game at all, not if they balance things out a little more in the tech tree side.
what tank helps you?
@sullen jolt the extra armor doesn't work like that it doesn't actually add armor thickness, it's more about a hidden stat with Homogenized Armor
I'm going to not use my easerrbp44 until next year and everyone will be surprised
Given how many people have it I doubt it
What equipments and all that jazz I should run on E75 TS
platoon???
@solid gate this Is what I run, I just realized I accidentally never out Consumable Delivery system on it though.
@foggy obsidian #platoon-search
better reload over increased pen on the first combat equipment? why? reload is fine imo the pen is rather weak from what i expected of a t8 tank
215 mm is like good if youre t7, for a t8, it is rather mediocre no?
the DPM is the selling point of the tank.
yeah the reload and damage was good
the pen could have been better ngl, what is the avg. penetration of heavy tanks at tier 8?
It's pretty middle of the road but it's plenty high
or maybe the guys i tried penetrating were tougher than i expected i dunno, anyways, this will be a good credit cow for me until i get something better
175% credits rate is pretty neat
75 TS is pretty good for making money
Exactly the point of interest for me
I've been thinking of running a fourth line for a while now, a light tank line, what should I run, I am running one of each class
19 parts away from getting it and already got some credits with my Panther 8,8 to equip it
I don't wanna give WG ideas or anything but I applaud them for not restricting the certificates earned from masteries to be from tanks above a certain tier lol
i guess theyre evil but not that evil
🤣
i mean i got them all from tier 5 or 6 games but still
How often are these tanks that they let people get like this
I mostly played t8
how often do they do events like e75ts
Where they give out a free tier 8 premium with some form of grind? There are usually a couple of times in the year where tier 8 premiums are the main reward
Neato
Soon, the Italian heavy tanks will arrive to the World of Tanks Supertest! These vehicles will feature the unique autoreloading system. In this video, the developers share all the details about the upcoming branch. We'd love to know your opinion of the new tanks, so please sha...
😍 thanks WG, when on blitz?
wut is better, SU-152 or SU-100M1
SU-152 id say
Ok
I got shot from the side and the shot hit my mantlet in ISU. And it didn damage. How? The mantlet isn't a part of the tank how come it get damaged???
the mantlet is definitely part of the tank, and despite it being spaced armor, larger guns (which that looks to be) can still pen it.
That's really weird tho. And it's super annoying. Becausee the mantlet is almost the only form for armor ISU has. It should be thicker.
It's pretty large and extremely trollish. Not very reliable but it will get bounces.
True true. But a Super Pershing just penetrated my mantlet with AP. I just don't really understand the mantlet
Yea it is very weird. Looking at it in armor inspector and there are a crazy amount of angles and different thicknesses.
Been grinding the prog line and dear god, the p43 grind is such a pain. If you aren’t lucky and can’t research the engines and/or train the crew, it’s so slow with a ptw ratio that’s comparable to German tanks. Upgraded mobility is decent at least. But the one thing that’s the most annoying is the stock gun. It’s passable once the crew is maxed,but 110 mm of pen isn’t gonna cut it a lot of times, and it’s hard to get into positions to flank (due to the horrible stock mobility), and you can’t snipe cause it’s accuracy and especially the shell velocity are absolutely abysmal. Add that with a dpm and reload that leaves a lot to be desired, it can make grinding a pain.
Tl;dr: Stock P.43 is horrible and hard to do well in. Save up a lot of resources to get the top modules ASAP (I recommend going for the engines first) and train the crew to the highest level possible.
Is that the ter or bis
How much xp is the new t6 gonna cost
About 25k
Honestly, the Italian line is good, it's just that the two P43s are neither good nor bad, they are average. But it does get a lot better with the Pantera (killer beast)
i havent done a stock grind in like 3 years
Would an interclip reload buff to 2.5 seconds be possible for the Tier 10 batchat? Cuz 3 seconds seems a little long for your clip potential and speed.
@quasi mirage I saw you in a t71 the other day lol
t71s fun , 3 second clip for 500 dmg is cool
Is the black prince good when it's in a side scraping angle while heading to an enemy?
Like a 20-35 degree angle
Definitely @scarlet echo
Tracks are dam huge
Ikr
Oof
Why do gun manlets that aren't part of the tank damage u??
Um, that's not how it works
Then how does it?
I assume you are taking damage while getting hit in the mantlet yes?
Somethimes
That's because the Mantlet is spaced armor. It doesn't Guarantee that it will block damage, it still counts as armor, but not primary armor meaning, if you get hit in the Mantlet in a direction that doesn't have a main structal portion of the tank behind that angle, you will not damage the tank but you can still pierce it
Bro waht, the two p43’s are awesome in my opinion
Ok thx
Is it possible to get lose hp if someone shot your gun?
if it's a HE round and it hits close to your turret, or in some very rare occasions it can ricochet of the gun and still do damage.
Nah you can actually get over penned in the gun and hit through hull/turret and take damage
If that can happen we all gonna question the power of tracks that block shells
Does the the tank after the black prince is good?
Mediocre at best
What about black prince
A comet with armor pretty much
A comet but actually good
I just want to know if I'm alone in my opinion that the T-44 top gun could use an extra 5 mm pen...
It wouldn’t hurt but it isn’t like buffing the T-44 should be a priority right now
Calibrated shell exist to give you extra pen.
Panzerkampfwagen V PantherToday at 12:11 AM
A comet with armor pretty much
Black Prince time
Yeah... ik... u go up to the tier 9 and still sitting on that 175 till u get 88k experience in the tank... that's more exp then I put into researching the thing...
@hollow notch why are we comparing the T-44 to the IS-6 anyways? 5 mm isnt going to effect its performance with the heavies but might give it a chance against other mediums like the Panther II... I mean it cant even pen the lower plate of a Tiger II and that's supposed to be a weak spot. It can't pen the lower plate of a Panther II without gold...
Nothing (with reasonable pen) can pen the tiger 2 lower plate
True
Even if you give it that buff it won’t be able to pen that. And yea that is a bit of an unfair example.
I agree with the #removeATGMs tho... and why tf do they add something to the name of a tank and decide to sell it?
And let's just say I disliked the idea of the panther 1, 2, and 88 armor buffs
Like... IS-6 Legend, IS-6, etc
I prefer aesthetics being sold than broken tanks
I mean... 5 mm of extra pen would put it on par with most other tier 8 mediums.
The tank as a whole is on par with most other t8 meds (if not slightly above)
Let's talk about the stock T-54 now... stuck with 175 pen until u get 88k xp for the tier 9 guns...
