Ofc. I researched it all with free xp
hmmm maybe just learn to use it better cuz if u know how to use it it is rlly gud
I don't think so... I have T57 through it but I only skipped it. Maybe that's the problem why this all
hmm what gun are u using the derp or the auto
Derp ofc
yeah i mean maybe just get more practice
More practice mean more loses and I don't even talk bout my wr
more practice=more fun
if you want to become better with the tank you've gotta practice more
Heh not for me.. I have premium acc, using epic credit booster but I'm still in red numbers after battle
Then maybe your not that good at the playing that specific tank
Use training rooms
Maybe.. but explain why I can't play with this tank but for example FV183 suits perfectly to me.. or jgE100
everytank is different
Those are both very hard tanks to play
But I have no problem with'em... and T49, just meh 🤔
I for example play heaviums and meds with heavy like characteristics like amx m4 45 or panther 8,8
Nerf Smasher no one can say anything else.
But true heavies and light I play like shit
I for example play heaviums and meds with heavy like characteristics like amx m4 45 or panther 8,8
@lethal tartan I have 6k battles only on heavies and over 4k with TDs
Wow I only have 1.5 k battles and I’ve been playing since 15’
I play for 2 yrs now but not every day
I do ok with td I like the dpm ones not the derpy guns
My babies are the amx m4 45 and panther 8,8
M4 45.. I have it np with it, yesterday I researched Panther tier 7
I average 2k on m4 45 and 3k on 8,8
It’s like a panther 2 with max everything except hull and premium, it’s really rare
I gave it to the top but.. idk. I don't know well how to play LTs and MTs
I don’t understand how to play something like those lights
But I need to learn it.. cuz I have nothing other to grind. All heavies stand in my garage
Cool what’s your fav tech tree
Germany
I like the German henshel heavies and French “heavies”
I am at tiger 1 and amx 50 100
Depends on tier
🤔 imo T-62
The Russian meds have troll turret armor
Yea but your hull must be hiden. T-62 has no problem with open areas.. but I haven't play those tanks yet so...
The Russian meds have troll turret armor
@lethal tartan all russian tanks are trolling tanks
U mean IS-5?
Idk about 430u.. in game is 252u or 730
Russian bias
430 is in normal wot
Obj 140 all the way
I think it's that double barrel one> 430 is in normal wot
@solid gate
ST-II
Classic World of Tanks
Nah, it is only PC version. But u can get STB-1 in blitz too
Hard to say 😂 I haven't play with it yet
It is only my personal opinon, but I think that Maus is dominating...
Maus for heavies progetto for meds t22 for lights I think and jajdpanzer e100 for td and grille 15 for turret td
I don’t know if t22 is Med or light
I don’t particularly like it
@lethal tartan why didnt u mentioned about stb-1..i am grinding for that...hope i can hear some positive words on stb-1..😋 🥰
@solid gate it is not bad.. but.....
It’s pretty good
The pz 3 has a middle sloped plate
Do you watch Martin dogger? He likes it. Why the panzer 3 of all tanks
@solid gate
I am unsure if the m5a1 is any good and is there an m8?
the best line to grind as a starter is the T-62A, Leopard 1 is hard to play, STB-1 has a hellish grind to get to
@pulsar cloak used to be quite good
How to giveaway tanks
LoL
How can u guys see stuffs like that
Like what?
The photo above showing tanks stats
Compare World of Tanks: Blitz tanks. WOTB tank compare including equipment and provisions.
it’s a website ^
Website name
☝️
because it’s played by better players, T-62A is a better all rounder
not much difference other than the STB has better gun dep m8
Is the isu-130 good?
Yes
When will the tankenstien get the gun recoil?
I think vk90p is op
The damn Annhihilator is just to op, people who play it are cold heard, they don’t even give me a chance to escape...
Nobody does...
Does wut?
Lets you escape, they have you escape because they can’t help it
Annihilator was a mistake. NErf it
I like how Smasher is 2 years old now. No nerfs yet. Only buffs
Lol
When I was a newbie and just started WotB 2 years ago I almost never saw a Smasher. Due to the price. It cost $30. I feel bad for people who bought it back then and people getting it for free in containers in this event.
I think it ether needs to have no armor or nerf it’s clip re load time. I have been in the game on and off since late 2014 early 2015 and I hate the annihilator even more than smasher
that is always how it works. tanks never hold their value, and buying one on that assumption is just foolish
Yes
Ironically enough if you’ve been here that long you would know smasher is still the bigger culprit
Yeah but Annihilator is just more flexible than Smasher. Alowing it to move around way quicker than the Smasher could.
They are equally annoying and broke (broke in different way but int eh end broke)
Annihilator is still more suited when it’s top tier and against tier 7-6 where smasher is still a gigantic threat at tier 8
Annihilator is still a threat for tier 8 mediums and lights.
But I do agree obviously that Annihilator just reks everyone at lower tiers
Is the leopard easy to play? The t5 version.
yes, but use it as a decoy to confuse people
yes, but use it as a decoy to confuse people
@solid gate What do you mean?
if the team is going by one side, you go by the other or by the center
Ah, ok thanks.
I loose every party with the WT auf pz.IV , how i can play this tank ?
don't get shot
Don’t get spotted
don't
Nah, being spotted is fine if you don't get shot
odds are whenever you get spotted every tank in the game is going to lob an HE shell at you
And I was joking, the thing is good
Just dodge 🤷♂️
What I did with it is run it with the mediums and just alpha them directly after they shot at one of my meatshields
For legal reasons this is a joke
Nah m8, I treat it like a t49 that rips through frontal armor
Just camp with it at the back of the map or sit behind a dpm monster and then finish them off
So like camp or follow meds and finish off for them
Guys should I buy the "Dream team" bundle, I have 15k gold, or should I wait for black friday?
black friday the chieftain is the best out of the three imo
Are there going to be, any other new premium tanks ? except STG & Pudel or is there nothing new ?
Cent 5/1 and Amx M4 54 are probably going to be released soon
Thanks M8
oh also Emil 1951
Isn’t Emil 1951 the same as Emil 1 ?
nope
Hmmm, well have to research then
So let’s see...
1951 has more mobility, better pen, better gun handling, and sideskirts in exchange for a little less hull armor.
The stats are in blitzstars tank compare and blitzhangar.
Ah yes i see it now too, thank you
np
black friday the chieftain is the best out of the three imo
@grand linden
I only have the t26E4 super Pershing as my only tier 8, most of the tanks there look very tempting and almost all of them suit my style
Okay that’s weird, why are "some" people saying that the E-100 should need a buff lol, it’s fine and with the last buff... I think they made the gun mantle from 230 > 250 right ? (Correct me if I’m wrong and yes I know, my English is bad too)
that is some pretty good English imo
In my opinion, it’s a good tank and doesn’t need any buffs compared to the E5 for example
My native language is German (Romanian too but I’m not really talking that much so I don’t count it as my native language) however, the E5 could have some buff though maybe in the rotation and @pastel drum thanks 😊
@radiant coral the people who say that normally are joking in a really crude way my advice ignore people who have “buff tank” in their username
I would disagree. The E5 is already a heavy with medium tank mobility
Well then if you say it like that (I’m also new in the game by the way and i seen it in many battle and most of the time they acted bad with it so I thought it could need a buff)
the people who say that normally are joking in a really crude way my advice ignore people who have “buff tank” in their username
@solid gate
Alright thanks
Is the IS-4 or IS-7, more noob friendly ? Would go for both of them in the end but not sure which one should be better for the beginning
KV-4 stock ugh.. that’s going to be hard, thx
that’s true, but upgraded KV4 is actually really fun imo. the gun is good
For KV-4 though, research gun or turret first?
Research the gun first
Thanks.
Uhhh. If you think the kv4 stock is bad, just wait for the sti stock grind without having the is8 maxed. Have fun with 175 pen at tier 9
is a good idea to free-xp to the ST-I's next gun
but the line is still overall better though. even if its harder to grind stock, what matters most is how good they are when upgraded
In the end, most stock tanks are bad... from my experience.. but you have to go threw that, alright, Goodnight/Morning/Day. ✌🏽
In the end it’s the same with all tanks so yea, E-75 stock bad but full upgraded a beat same with STI-1 and KV-4 etc.
Aight now I’m out.
Buff e100 front turret plate to 270mm
Yes. More heavy buffs plz
E 100 is fine on the frontal turret, what are you possibly having issues with?
"People shoot Prammo and it goes through" that cuts someone's DPM by 20% so not a valid complaint
My best since I have that crap in garage
Is the emil l worth it?
@scarlet echo it's the most broken t8 so yea
K
Yeah that's it tank xp.. u can research modules or next tank in line with that. But no, u can't use it for that what u want. For this things we have free xp (that orange ones) if u don't have tank in that nation which u want to grind... understand? Cuz I lost it 😅
For researching.. u can use them when some silver xp are missing or if u want to install top modules without spending silver ones. Also u can start new line in new nation or whatever u want.
E100 or IS-4?
I think that this is explained in training at the begining 🤔 😅
E100 or IS-4?
@solid gate I have both, but for me it's IS-4
Is it easier to play than E100?
Mhm, and u can ez kill E 100 or Maus with it
Thanks.
Np
What's the best gun for the KV-3?
Idk now.. haven't play that tank over 1,5 yrs so. 🤔
Even if you angle the E100 turret perfectly, you can still get penned by prammo right?
@solid gate For the KV-3, get the 122mm D-2-5T and 122mm D-25T guns, that way when you get to the KV-4, the 2 guns leading to the ST-I will already be unlocked.
This is because those two guns are exactly the same for the KV-3 and KV-4, and obviously they perform much better on a tier 7 than tier 8.
what if you're grinding both IS lines?
both at the same time?
I already fully researched the IS. I'm just wondering which one is better, the 100 or 122?
both at the same time?
@lofty dock ye, doing it right now as we speak
shoultz i liked the 122m more for that big alpha
But the aim time though.
Invisible im not too sure but im guessing it would be a good idea to be slighty ahead in the IS-7 line, to unlock guns for the IS-4 line tanks
But I'll try it with the 122. I'll run calibrated.
Thanks for the advice!
shoultz 100mm vs 122mm i guess its probably just personal preference then. they both have same (AP) pen so its really just reload or alpha
I'll try both. But I think the 100 is better aside from alpha, better dpm, better aim time and better prammo pen.
yeah, but in terms of how important they are to unlock, the 122m gun is way higher
True.
and to be honest, if you already have the 122mm gun, it may be a waste of xp to sidegrade, unless you really dislike the 122mm's gun handling
I have all of the guns unlocked from the IS.
Really, the only thing left for me to research is the KV-3 turret.
yeah, i was just saying in general. if you have both, then you may as well use both and pick the one you like. honestly that turret upgrade is pretty important too
True, good thing it doesn't cost that much exp lol.
@solid gate run the 100mm better accuracy, better prammo, and reload. You can run either calibrated shells or rammer either one is good
If you run calibrated on the 100 you can pen t8 with prammo right?
Yea the prammo goes up to 247 I think
The 122mm guns are better suited for the kv 3 imo
eh, both guns are workable
They are indeed but I find that the 100mm is more flexible(god I’m hoping I’m using the word right) on the is bc it seems faster to me and it can bully meds and equal tier heavy, mostly the tiger since it has enough pen to pen it’s front
220 AP pen
o
252 APCR (without CS)
220 AP pen
@gentle wasp On what tank?
Challenger
Is the t28 proto good?
no
nah
What is the t28 proto good at then
i think its front armor is good
it's good at nothing. It is big, slow, not well armored, and the gun isn't good enough to make up for all of that.
Literally the M6 EXP is an improved version of it
isnt its front sort of okay? i know its sides and back are really really bad though
if it has the same frontal armor as the defender at least
The front is 203mm that is almost not angled., The turret is even weaker
Defender has 215
ah
whenever i see the t28 defender its front seems decent
The turret is Terrible
the front is extremely flat and can't be angled at all due to the weak sides and prominent drive wheels. the turret, while offering a slight flexibility advantage, is a huge liability because of its size and lack of real armor.
What's the armor profile for emil l
Broken
^
stop being faster than me mayo
It really doesn't matter, hull down or not.
@gentle wasp as my unpaid intern you are slacking, stop making me work 🙄
The bad “super heavy tank destroyers” need an armor
@lyric oriole go away then and let me work or I will have an assignment for you
You're fired
ok I'll hire you as my intern then. how well do you know excel?
actually though I need help with this so cmon intern
You could say he excels at it
and you're fired too ;-;
Does Excel-sior count? I know that well
clubber
even I don't stoop that low
If your gonna club you wont be using an excelsior
That's why I fired you as my intern. Why should I be the one with the seal blood on my hands
I wouldn't play that thing even if you didn't pay me
That's a sentence
Play a t1. The ultimate show of the balancing team being competent
Emil 1 noises
T1 fits right into tier 6. Emil 1 gets deleted by tier 9
well if we are going by that then Annihilator isn't broken
•_•
😉
Tier 7 is just broken in general
it saddens me
My Type 62 is suffering. I took a break from it when the Smasher spam first started, and now again with the Annihilator.
That annoys me so much
Full of broken premiums and overbuffed tanks
@hollow notch Annihilators everywhere, smashers here and there, yea, extremely broken
Type is op, it just takes skill
I don't have enough then
I feel sorry for those who are still grinding in tier 7, for they have to suffer the Annihilator apocalypse
yea I tried playing the Leo for a bit and rage quit soon after. Just trying not to sell it at this point
I haven't even tried the leo yet
Its either platooning with someone or free exp'ing your way out of tier 7
I remember one of the mods calling the smasher a rare premium recently. Ok.
Yikes
That many battles played and the thing is averaging 59%. Because balance
I want to get my hands on one to experience just how balanced this tank is.
the smasher needs a buff. too underpowered
Smasher's fine. No need to buff a thing that can punish some t8s
yeah but its gun is too weak
it needs a damage buff or something to make up for its slow reload
How long is the reload exactly?
Shorter than the tankenstein
WG should probably buff its armor and speed too, because its slow and has low armor
And give it 15° of depression because why not
Going by that... Every tank in WoTB should get a buff too if you buff Smasher. It'll be too much of a hassle to deal with it if you play against it.
wait yeah that reminds me. honestly the smasher should get a gun depression buff too. that way it can hold ridge lines better. I mean some tanks have 15 degrees. why shouldnt the smasher get that too?
Just make the smasher one shot honestly
"make the smasher t5, i hate meeting annihalator in that thing"
hey guys which is more cancer the 1. SMASHER 2. EMIL 1
How about give it a cheap HESH, 120 pen without calibrated
Annihilator become a cancer rn at tier 7
no, give smasher 150mm pen on its HE lol, i hate not penetrating with HE lol s/
LoL, Vickers light cheap HE can even pen most of tanks on tier 10
10 tier Xs versus this
Literally every TD and every T10 with Prammo with cali shells (Well not all T10's with prammo cuz ofc they have hesh)
maybe less than historical armour?
depends
You want to block and deal damage, go for heavies, you want all round gameplay, use mediums, depends on what you want, either breaking through defenses and surviving punishment, or doing multiple things at once, block dmg do dmg, reposition, spot, etc
For big dmg after the match,you have to use the ISU 152
cough cough other tds with guns greater than 15cms and tds with high dpm cough COUGH
geez cover your mouth when you cough! 😷
You haven't seen t100 lt then lol
Amx ELC bis and E 25: Are we a joke to you
If you want heavy tank, go E100, great line, if you want meds, go T62A, also excellent line
Generally heavies would be the better place to go for a new beginner as meds generally require a bit of skill
E100 line is a very good line, bettr than IS-7 line
VK 36.01H Massive threat at tier 6, with very strong armour
Tiger 1 Great mobility, can support meds and great DPM + penetration for a tier 7
Tiger 2 Excellent frontal armour, with great gun as well. Mobility not bad for a heavy
E75 Excellent frontal armour and very versatile heavy. Arguably the best tier 9 heavy due to its high alpha gun at its tier and very good accuracy
E100 Decent heavy tank, will scare many people away with its massive 640 alpha gun
IS-7 line however doesn't have any outstanding tanks
But, never forget, Tiger 2 is suuuper butter to premium ammuntion, literally EVERYONE(well not all but still)you face will load prammo every once in a while
Everyone? since when do bots (80% of the playerbase) know what prammo is? @fluid sand
premium ammunition, well once in a while there will be players that would load prammo when they see you
most commonly APCR sometimes HEAT
But yea, Tiger 2 has thick armor, but not all the players you fight are bots
@solid gate if you are new to the game, i recommend doing the IS-4 line because the is4 is super easy to use, unlike the e100 which requires knowledge on angling to be effective
And the front can withstand some prammo, but ofc not all the time
for some is7 can be ammo racked easily
yeah i think its ammo is at the front
it is its in the left cheek
Everyone? since when do bots (80% of the playerbase) know what prammo is? @fluid sand
@hollow belfry Huh??? Well if prammo wont work aiming at the weakspots will lol
Very little people use prammo tbh. All the bots either 1) don’t know it exists 2) don‘t know it can be bought for credits 3) think it’s cheaty and refuse to use it 4) random Neanderthal noises
anyways fine
IS-4 line has a VEEEERRY bad grind though
Enjoy stock KV-4 and ST-1 grind
yeah well at least the tanks are good and easy to use
I say E5 has a better grind for a new player
and the kv4 grind isnt that bad as long as you get the guns while in the kv3
st 1 is poop
yeah i suppose the e5 aint bad, but american tanks are generally harder to play because you have weak sides, and often weak hull, so you must hulldown
Do NOT BUY T2020. The worst IS-like tank 😫 trash!😝
i just had a thought
what if wargamign randomly buffed the t2020 to make if broklen, and never sold it again
lol
i doubt they will buff it though, because when it came out I think 4 months ago, they already realized it was crap, and it is still unchanged
I have t1 heavy I can only go for m6 should I switch the tree or go with it
is arl 44 good
Should I buy m6 after t1?
it is ok
m6 isnt as op as the t1. but if you are already going down the US heavy line, you may as well keep going
probably
oh
IS or IS2.. no matter they're exactly the same
Yup, the KpfPz 70 is a bad tank indeed
IS or IS2.. no matter they're exactly the same
@solid gate
And imo, both of them are nice to play, and good morning by the way
I didn't say that they're bad 😅 I have them both. Imo.. solid tier 7
I actually wanted to say that I agree with you... sorry for my worse spelling
Chill my eng is bad too
I had an idea
Which is missiles autoloader
The missilers autoloader is a TD class tracked vehicle that has huge paper turret shoots rockets and guided missiles
HEAT Rocket is an misguided missile act as velocity shell as standard shell
HEAT Guided missile as prammo
HE rockets as HE
Loaded with 3 shells with 5 sec beteen shell and 30s mag reload
Caliber 120 to 152
😑
add the IT-1 Drakon and i will be happy :D /s
Yee
Bruh
Better than Sheridan
Cough new pReM incoming cough
True.. actually I heard bout new premium MT in USSR nation. Some testers already have it
You mean the STG ?
Yes that is it
Yea it’s going to be a new premium tank
Oh B O I, wonder what funny moments the tech tree will have when meeting it
😄
Wtf mt already op tank
@lofty dock T2020 was a Birthday tank of Blitz! Such shame!
alright so here's a question for everyone..... which of the 2 options is better off the Jagdpanther... the Ferdi or the JPanther 2?
Ferdinand ofcourse nah just kidding jpanther 2 is better
I would say E100 line is more noob friendly overall
Yup. For newbies is Maus line lil hard to grind
Hi, best tanks for earning credits, please? Tier 5 - 10, both premium, non-premium....Thanks!
@solid gate the best tier for credit grinding is tier 8. So if you play a tier 8 premium tank you will definitely be earning at least 30K+(without prem account)
how much does is-5 cost
1500 gold
1500
@winter quail It is worth it, deffinitely 🙂
dang it, i only have 1.1k gold :(
@winter quail Wait and see advertisements for 10 gold. You will have 1500 in a few days 🙂
@winter quail Wait and see advertisements for 10 gold. You will have 1500 in a few days 🙂
@solid gate i cant, i play on switch :(
how much is the T-34-85 rudy?
@winter quail Instal the game on you mobile phone and use only for adverts...I play on my mobile phone 🙂
k
For the T-34, should I be using the 76mm S-54 or the 57mm ZiS-4?
90 avg gun idk the gun name @storm robin
It’s the 57mm I think, but wouldn’t that just make the T-34 a Russian Crusader?
@storm robin yeah with good frontal armor
That’s still basically butter to anything in Tier V
Well 90 is good because the dpm @storm robin
I mean, honestly I’m going with the 76mm because it’s the Russian T-34’s gun (the 57mm is obligatory on the Chinese version, so might as well use a unique gun here)
160 a shot kk your choice @storm robin
@keen escarp 76mm isn't a bad option now. It actually out DPMs all other 75/76mm armed tier 5 mediums except the M4A2E4, and with more pen to boot
@wise moth i do agree 160 does sting but like when i used 90 avg dmg gun i loved it because it was like a E 25 gun with 70 dmg taken off
It's only 160 extra DPM, but you'll have to work a lot harder to make full use of it
Ok @wise moth and @solid gate. Idk
@solid gate a bit over 900k
I had an idea
Which is missiles autoloader
The missilers autoloader is a TD class tracked vehicle that has huge paper turret shoots rockets and guided missiles
HEAT Rocket is an misguided missile act as velocity shell as standard shell

@empty frigate no
Oof
Which gun is best on the KV-3?
the top gun
save until xmas
Question
what’s ur question
What tier x tank makes you a decent amount of credits preferably the medium line or heavy no premium
@solid gate if u want the chieftan get it now by itself but if u can wait get it during the blitz fair
I recommend waiting for blitz fair @solid gate
tier X ain’t that profitable, you gotta do like anywhere from 3.2k-5k+ to turn a decent sized profit
Thank you @gentle wasp and @lyric copper yeah that’s what I was reading earlier on the forums.
Tier 8 is the best tier to earn credits, right?
yea you really shouldn't be looking to grind credits there. you should be able to break even most times if you play well, but a consistent profit is usually out of the question
@solid gate it features a high number of tanks that make a lot of credits so yes
tier 7 LT also make quite a lot of credits, but due to the current state of balance of that tier, you need to be pretty good at playing LTs to turn a decent profit
Guys I want some advice on which Tier VI Soviet vehicle is better the T 34-85 or the MT-25
depends on what line you want to go down, but MT is better
light tank line needs better map awareness, mediums are great all rounders
Does anyone know what’s the better gun to use for the ISU-152?? (Apart from BL-9S and BL-10)

@gentle wasp how long you been playing I see you in here frequently and always so informative
@jade saddle thanks for the kind words, I have been playing for almost 4 years, but have only been a positive contributor here for about a year now.
@jade saddle thanks for the kind words, I have been playing for almost 4 years, but have only been a positive contributor here for about a year now.
@gentle wasp me too! i regestered at the end of 2014 but quit for a year cuz of 3.8 and 5.0
:)
I took a brief break a bit ago but have been pretty much playing the whole time
🙂 ive loved the lower tiers (clubbing) rip 5.0 :c
got a rasin in the t82/french t2 meds thingy and the kv1
I got my first rasin in the Marder II
the good old days.......sigh
I got my first rasin in the Marder II
@gentle wasp great tank tho with that amazing gun arc
I still remember that... :)
@royal charm u cant
@unreal vector I want to burn tanks mid battle
i remember most fondly of the t82 raisin : ) i lilitary derped throught the entire team
gimme a sec..... finding pics....
WoT Blitz is now worst wenn they putt in the Annihilator...
Nice!
thx man
KV-4 is the best
i prefer e75ts
lol
I got the cheiftan and I can say I've never had any better battles that when I got it
Because I f****** love it

I can't find user @Flying.
Meh
Nice
I too love having 5 annihilators in a match
Vk36 or ARL 44?
Yessss I love that tank
Vk36 or ARL 44?
VK 36 has good all-around armour and a good top gun in the 88mm, ARL has overall less armour (paper sides and rear, decent front, weak turret) but its top 90mm gun has the highest pen in tier VI
vk
Honestly I’d stand by the ARL, its top gun has insane pen for tier VI, and it has better mobility than the vk as well
i tought KV 1S has the highest pen in tier 6
it has good pen yea but not close to the ARL
ok
Kv1s has 175/217 and Arl has 212/259
ARL’s pen basically allows you to lolpen pretty much anything from the front tbh
Vk36 or ARL 44?
@solid gate VK 36.01 H, because of the armor. The ARL 44's frontal armor can be penetrated by any premium ammunition at tier 6. Additionally, there is main armor behind the tracks from the front, so you can shoot there and pen with standard ammo. The cheeks on the ARL 44 are weak and vulnerable to any ammunition. The rear turret of the ARL can be penetrated by any HE with a caliber above 75mm. In comparison, the VK 36 can sidescrape and go hulldown much better. The stopping power is much better. While the ARL does have better mobility, gun handling, and reload than the VK 36, the VK 36 is by no means bad in any of those departments. The ARL is only slightly or fairly better in those areas, and the armor of the VK 36 allows you to survive more hits and deal more damage than an ARL 44 ever could. In my personal experience, the VK 36.01 H is better than the ARL 44, in pubs and tournaments.
ARL is much more comp than the Vk. You have an insane gun on a platform that can run with the meds, along with an armor profile that many tanks will have trouble with when using AP.
@solid gate Thanks a lot.

@gentle wasp Just aim and the ARL becomes a lot worse. You have big turret cheeks, horrible side armor, and main armor behind the tracks. I'll post a picture.
Look at that main armor behind the tracks. It's 86mm thick, and even on the lower angled part it's only 150mm of effective armor. Super easy penetration for any AP round at tier 6.
Plus, look at this
Yea I am aware of the ARL’s armor profile, but it isn’t easy to “just aim” when you’re using peashooter med guns and the ARL is barreling toward you at full speed.
Dude the turret cheeks are super exposed and it's easy to aim at them. Experienced players can go for the track weakpoint. If all else fails, load APCR and pen the frontal armor everywhere. Also, why would you fight an ARL head on in a medium tank? Just turn and run. A medium is faster than an ARL
Plus, the VK has better aim time, top speeds in both forward and reverse, as well as 80mm of side armor. There's no turret weakpoints except for the cupola, but that is back and center and you can easily raise your gun to block it from enemy fire.
Sure, the ARL 44 may have better penetration, but the VK 36's armor can just take more hits, whereas a vast majority of shells will penetrate the ARL 44 if aimed correctly.
You can bounce way more in the VK 36 compared to the ARL 44 because unlike the ARL, your armor doesnt instantly become useless as soon as the enemy loads premium
Vk is too sluggish to reliably fight meds. The armor isn’t amazing, yes, but the turret isn’t that easy to hit when you’re moving.
Also, the arl handles heavies much better. Vk has poor pen and the arl has great pen and enough accuracy to shred it.
The Vk is a straight heavy, the ARL is a heavium with a frankly OP gun
Are you on mobile? The turret is an easy shot by miles. If they even wiggle slightly, their side armor becomes weak and you can shoot that. Also, the VK is not sluggish. The ARL is more sluggish than the VK. Look at the traverse, the VK has much better traverse than the ARL 44.
Look at the power to weight stats, they are a much better indication of being sluggish.
Plus, even if you cant aim at the turret reliably, just load premium like I already stated, and the front armor becomes useless. Whereas, on the VK 36, your armor can actually bounce premium rounds.
Tbh the ARL generally performs best if it has distance to work with, I find
Vk armor doesn’t stand up to the ARL, which is the most common comp tank, so it becomes kind of pointless.
Also @grand linden get in here
How can you ignore the clear fact that the VK has 25% better base traverse speed, and 36% better top speed?
top speed =/= actual speed though, power/weight affects acceleration which allows you to reach that top speed
Plus, if youre brawling mediums, you want that armor so you can bounce shots and conserve HP. Also, I've found that if you wiggle and sidescrape and hulldown and facehug, it becomes difficult for an ARL 44 to pen you every single time
Because sluggish refers to the quick burst that is needed to fight meds, not just the top speeds. If you read what I said I never argued that the Vk didn’t have the speed advantage.
That’s you just facing a noob, because the ARL has no problems at all penning you everywhere.
What is your fighting mediums situation? Close up, the VK can out traverse mediums and lights and then rip them with the armor and alpha advantages. Long ranges, most mediums cant pen the VK frontally except on the lower plate, and you can just hide that behind any cover
AP pens everything expect the mantlet, and APCR goes right through the mantlet, even with max gun dep.
Meds can’t really pen the ARL’s upf as well, and generally the ARL is better at slugging it out at range
Plus, in comp games like tourneys, a full VK push is way more effective than an ARL push because you're blocking about 30 to 40% of shots whereas the ARL blocks about 30% with AP loaded and somewhere between 0 and 0% with APCR loaded
I kind of doubt you play much t6 comp because the arl is played at least twice as much as the Vk, and for a reason.
Also making up numbers just doesn’t help you dude. Cmon.
Nah the VK is more effective if you angle your armor. The ARL has to expose its turret to fire at the bare minimum, and the cheeks are exposed by that too, so its an easy pen, since they have to stop to aim and fire. The VK 36 hulldown has virtually no weakpoints, and it has no sidescraping weakpoints.
Again that is not true because the most common tank it will face is an arl which easily punches through it
You can’t say it has no weak points when the ARL can literally prammo pen the gun mantlet, and the drive wheel is also a weak point that you can’t do much about
Are you kidding me? You're telling me you can consistently target the mantlet of a VK 36? Aside from a small portion in the middle, everything else is too angled to penetrate. I'd like to see someone consistently penetrate that weakpoint. Also, the drive wheel is not a weakness. Its a German heavy, not an American heavy. Full 80mm of side armor everywhere
Also, ive never seen an ARL 44 ever fire premium at my gun mantlet, and i have 800 battles in tournaments, so i know what im talking about
Not sure what you are looking at
Who can reliably aim at that?
Is it a weakness or not?
That is like credit card levels of thin, no one is going to consistently penetrate that, not when they have to squint through the tracks.
Wait, but who uses calibrated shell on arl 44 top gun with 200 pen?
How convenient that people know to shoot the drive wheel on the ARL but not the Vk
Anyways, I'm done arguing. My stance is still that the VK 36 is better than the ARL 44 because of the armor, despite the numerous gun advantages the ARL has.
My personal stance is that the VK 36 and the ARL 44 perform different roles on the battlefield - the VK will always be a better front-line fighter, while the ARL is better at picking things off at a distance - and that they’re both equally good if played to their strengths?
Alright.... so... how do I get the most out of my Sherman Firefly? do I play it more like a turreted TD than a med?
The ARL is more sluggish than the VK.
@solid gate lol wut :v
o.O
Alright.... so... how do I get the most out of my Sherman Firefly? do I play it more like a turreted TD than a med?
I think so, yes - British mediums are weird that way
The Cromwell plays much more like a light than a medium (my abysmal win rate in that thing says that much) and the Sherman Firefly looks to me like a gun-focused vehicle rather than a well-rounded medium
I am confussed which one should i.choose..E100 or Mause
@solid gate E100 is easier to get than the Maus, go for the E100
Alecto any good?
@ancient iron play it as a second liner and make sure you're using its high pen to your advantage as well as its good reload
whommst has sommoned me
ok reading the convo its basically vk vs arl, which arl stomps the vk on. the vk has no hopes of penning the arl hull without pramo whereas the vk is just free damage for the arl. the problem with the arl is that penetration in combination with the dpm makes t6 armor meaningless. think about it a vk36 will be able to pen an arl hull with pramo easily. however, the vk would lose a lot of dpm from using apcr whereas the arl, which has over 2k dpm with its standard ap round will have no problems with penning the vk 36. the arl although slower than the vk due to its worse top speed and traverse will not struggle nearly as much as its able to reach its top speed much easier than the vk as well as its frontal hull is impen to all t6 medium ap round and unlike the vk the biggest thing is the arl's dpm stacks extremely well with other arls as the arl very rarely bounces especially against tier 6 heavy armor which caps out at about 175 ish not to mention the arl also gets 10gd which allows the arl to make use of much more positions
It is a tier 4?
the problem with the arl is not its armor as the arl has poor side armor which severely impacts the arl's ability to sidescrape. though the arl also has a weak turret, the turret is very small and has many very awkward spots that can bounce rounds. that however is not what makes the arl the best t6 heavy. what makes the arl exceptional is its ability to pen anything it comes against when it comes to tier 6 heavies. it has more dpm than most tier 6 heavies and has more ap pen compared to tier 6 pramo. taking the 36 as an example. the arl has worse aimtime at the cost of about 150 more dpm. but the arl ap is 212 which is still more than the 36's apcr round running calibrated as well as the arl has 5 alpha which even though is a minor difference still means the arl will win out on most trades not to mention the 10 degrees of gd
in conclusion, though the vk36 is an exceptional tank especially against tier 6, the arl claps it in almost every area aside from traverse and camo, the ladder not being a major deal. the arl is more consistent in mobility and its frontal hull is also better. the vk can indeed sidescrape, but the arl can easily push on the vk36 using its superior dpm and penetration to completely clap the vk36
@gentle wasp what did i miss
It is a tier 4?
@pulsar cloak the alecto is the trashorn of tier 4
also i have no idea what you mean by a full vk36 team being able to compete against a full arl team. the 36 gets focused out very easily with arls
why are we arguing about tier 6
he even said the arl is sluggish
idk apparently someone was talking about how the 36 is better than the arl and as an experienced clubber i can assure you thats not the case
That’s pretty much what I wanted from you lol
And yea especially in comp it really isn’t close
in pubs its somewhat able to be argued cause its pubs and anything could happen but when you have a team of 7 arls that are on vc and coordinated oh boy
gg
VK 36 is basically the maus/e100 of Tier 6. Do you see people making full Maus or E100 pushes in comp, short of memes?
Case closed.
if the vk36 is the maus the arl would have 380 ap pen
VK 36 is basically the maus of Tier 6. Do you see people making full Maus pushes in comp, short of memes?
Case closed.
@rotund skiff wdym idk lol tf
i'm sorry, i don't speak random acronyms. english please
arl is miles better than vk36 better pen mobility armour gun dep
i wouldn't say miles, but that's basically what i said
armorwise the vk could be argued to be better than the arl on since the vk could sidescrape and the armor is good against anything that isnt an arl
u can frontscrape
The VK's armor is better than the ARL's. that shouldn't even be a question.
However, in a "competitive" (lol tier 6 comp) setting, where all members are playing with full understanding of the strengths/weaknesses of tanks + fully coordinated, the ARL just brings a lot more to the table than the VK 36.01H, including the ability to butter through a VK 36.01H.
That isn't to say that the VK 36.01H isn't competitive, but the ARL is just so much more flexible.
And why are we debating Tier 6 again?
were trying to prove the arl is better than the vk. the vks armor is better than the arl but its just useless in front of that 212
well obviously it's better in a competitive setting
were trying to prove the arl is better than the vk. the vks armor is better than the arl but its just useless in front of that 212
@grand linden not prove; it it better
^^
wat about kv3
Kv-3 has armor to withstand some hits like the IS, yea its decent if you use it right, but the IS has better mobility
Just use is
yea IS is generally a better option
I like the alecto it is small so the hit box is tiny and the damage is pretty good
what bout at2
oh
Panther 2 or Tiger 2?
i have no idea
i dont have either
but what about leopard the teir V
Annihilator feels like rly unbalanced.... can kill like mostly tanks in two hits... is it normal??
yes
it killed me in arl44 3 shots
i was on 950
i mean KV-2 can kill tanks in one shot at tier 5 using AP
But it has weak accuracy and long reload not to mention nonexistent depression angles
But it also has the guide of Stalin
You definitely need that gun, without it E100 is trash
Why is the Tetarach Soviet, it was imported to Russia from England, so isn't it meant to be British?
what gun should i use on the tanken
105 for effectiveness (you also get a 279 mm T29 gun mantlet), and 130 for fun (with significant turret armour loss.)
130mm gets the same special gold rounds that the SU-100Y and ISU-130 get
Why is the Tetarach Soviet, it was imported to Russia from England, so isn't it meant to be British?
@solid gate Well...yea ive been asking the same question as well
Yeah
IS worth it?
IS worth it?
@calm adder No, it leads to the easily ammo racked is-7
the IS tank itself is cool tho, lotta bounces, great mobility, good gun once you get used to it / let it settle, def not for sniping until you let its aim time kick in, no shooting on the run etc unless its close quarters
Can someone send me what equipment are u using in t49
I think is7 sucks against is4,e100 and maus
What KV-2 Gun should I use? The high damage high reload AP or the lower reload moderate damage one?
thnxs
gah i cant find the right way to play the jagtiger - im so slow and idk how to capitalize on the armor
Can someone send me what equipment are u using in t49
@mint aurora looks fine to me
What KV-2 Gun should I use? The high damage high reload AP or the lower reload moderate damage one?
@indigo mica
Depends, if you want to have fun then the derpy 152mm high alpha gun but carry a bunch of HE shells.
If you want to get rid of the tank as soon as possible to get to the kv3 and overall perform better in matches, then the smaller one.
Thank you
How should i have my alecto set up for the equipment
@solid gate its in the Russian tree because they were highly exported to Russia and the one in game was one of the Russian lend lease tanks same thing with the Churchill III
kk
Though i have no idea why the fcm pak 40 is listed as french
Is fv215b heavy tank line tough to grind?
Not really well I wouldn’t say it is
It’s a pretty fun line besides the slow tanks but you can take the hits from other tanks.
@open solstice
I think I'll struggle with conq and caenarvon
Is this your first heavy ?
Not first heavy but first british tank
I'm currently on churchill 7
The British line is pretty cool Ntn too special about it if you ask me it isn’t really brought up a lot at least I haven’t heard much about it besides the premium vehicles. The comet and Cromwell is always a favorite.
I also want to research vickers
It's borderline op lol
But i think I'll go with heavies first since i know nothing abt hesh yet
I see well then good luck to you I wish you good fortune
@jade saddle thanks 👍
@open solstice the tier 5, 8 and 9 of this like are veeeeery average, mostly the Conqueror and Churchil 1,
FV152B isn't a great deal too, the armor frontally is pretty weak (for prammo) and the agility isn't that good.
This tank can only sidescrape well (high callibers will penetrate you anyways), but I don't think it's worth the effort
Buff Maus frontal plate. I get golded my heavies. The frontal plate should be unpenable by msot tanks.
We already got E 50M Roaring @bleak abyss
@pliant lodge no and depends
Maus frontal plate is already impenetrable for prammo, you just need to angle well, it's not that hard
Tanks usually have 2 main plates frontally, the upper plate and the lower plate
The upper plate is always stronger, that's the best part if the hull (unless on Tiger 2, where lower plate is actually stronger)
The lower plate is usually a weakspot, you should always hide it on most of the tanks, it applies to Maus too
There's tanks with almost impenetrable fronts (VK 90 is an exemple) but that's their roles
Usually, on heavies, your armor only gets really strong with some angle (unless if you have a pike nose
@hollow moth it's not unpenable. IS-4 yeets my frontal palte with HEAT. Most heavies wih high gold pen can pen my upper plate
I facehug which is what Maus is good at doing. Oh no they can pen my upper plate with gold. I can't angle against a tank with a turret.
Even with 4% more armor I still get golded allot on my upper palte and it pens
IS-4 HEAT is 340mm pen
Those spots are at least 330mm thick
You're very well protected against IS-4 HEAT, just need to angle
I cannot angle at every moment at every time. The Maus upper palte is weak
Maus is based on angling, if you can't angle it when facing your enemies, then you'll struggle a lot with the tank
They just go to your front and HEAT
Wiggle
Also for further context a 268 can even struggle to pen a maus sometimes when it’s angled
Also that armor profile is what happens when you find a maus just sitting in the open
If you use a wall, you can easily make it so that they can only use HE on you
@solid gate until u slap that HEAT 😉
@indigo mica Saw this conversation earlier, just want to make sure you know that the 107mm is what you want, not the 122 howitzer, the 122 howitzer is awful. Additionally, 350 alpha for tier 6 is actually quite a lot compared to average alpha at that tier (160-200) so youll still be a dangerous opponent if you can use your gun mantlet to bounce. Don't trade hitpoints, you won't win against other heavies since your hitpoint pool is amoung the lowest of any heavy at tier 6.
I already got the 152. Thanks for the advice, I’ll switch it out to the 107 once I have enough XP
I don’t know if you want to do that. 98% of people us the 152 cause the tank is played for fun, not for winning. And the 152 is not a bad gun
^^^ I agree, I'd run the 152mm gun, and if you use some AP/premium AP, you can still pen tanks
Give the Jg E100 a legendary camo
Jg E 100 Lion
@bleak abyss
My name for the legendary camo is JG PZ E 100 Juggernaut
Nah, 'JG PZ E100 Zerstörer' looks better and more germanized for a german tank @jovial forum
r> Nah, 'JG PZ E100 Zerstörer' looks better and more germanized for a german tank @jovial forum
@hollow moth
Zerstörer means destroyer but it's a tank destroyer it doesn't need a camo to show it's a destroyer
But Smasher and Annihator doesn't need those names for we know that they smash and annihilate other tanks
🤣
Wow the alecto is a great tank
Yeah it is, double AP is the perfect ammo set
the Alecto is alright
it gets bullied incredibly easily by basically anything and its shell velocity is pretty bad on the top gun, but it is decently mobile and has good pen. TBH, the Hetzer is a better tier 4 TD
it gets bullied incredibly easily by basically anything and its shell velocity is pretty bad on the top gun, but it is decently mobile and has good pen. TBH, the Hetzer is a better tier 4 TD
@wispy rain
Yeah. My opinion is Hetzer too
I think Alecto is like a tier IV grille😳
Yeah, Alecto is fun because I feel like I'm literally driving around a mortar on wheels which feels memey to me for some reason..and then I pray I don't get tier 5 and get utterly demolished by anything that even breathes on me. I guess it's kinda like a Grille, minus the super accuracy and the semi-traversable turret
Alecto is not like a tier 4 Grille, Alecto is like a tier 4 piece of paper that gets demolished by anything with HE or any sort of Speed to ram it.
So a tier 4 grille
Alecto has a troll gun. I almost never hit anything when I want to. But sometimes RNG just takes over
Bought the super Pershing it’s good I think aslong as you show your front to the enemy lol
Jg E 100 Lion
@bleak abyssMy name for the legendary camo is JG PZ E 100 Juggernaut
@jovial forum yes. Just yes.
Anyone can tell me which is the best tier 2 tank
I’m grinding win rate and still learning
You won't learn much in T2
You should play T4-5-6 imo
Kv3 or IS?
Is, speed for a little less armor
I hope emil serie will be nerfed. These tanks are really OP. It's almost impossible to pen them when facing
Even with gold. At least every heavy should pen them with gold mun.
that would make them completely irrelevant, if you get memed on by a hulldown emil/kran you may want to re evaluate who you are
What means to mem ? I search it in english dictionnary and i don't find it. I'm french speaking and i never heard this verb.
meme is a joke on the internet, the real definition is very complex and requires understanding of the last decade of the internet and its culture
Does it mean mamy ? Meme is synonym of mamy (grandmother) in french
No, it’s just a word that was conjured up
try searching on urban dictionary, it’s an online dictionary that indexes many internet slang (short language) terms
Only english could understand that as it's not a regular english word we can learn
similar experience here, am learning french, albeit very slowly, seeing many slang words being used in movies and the like
I found that about meme "something that spreads through the internet in the same way that a virus spreads between organisms". It's what you meant ?
that’s one of many definitions, but yes.
IS-4 HEAT is 340mm pen
Why are you not running calibrated shells
Meme is basically a fancy word for idea
Recommended Equipment for VK 100.01 P?
@solid gate
bruh what is this supposed to prove @gentle wasp
yet another example of the Vk getting clapped by ARL spam
Sorry to burst your bubble, but I A) don't care about that discussion anymore, and B) this isn't proof. For one, it's ONE GAME. One game does not provide sufficient evidence or statistics. Additionally, the enemy teams comes as a factor in this. How good or bad are they? This is tier 6, so I'm gonna assume they suck at this game and as such would lose to a semi-pro clan like DETH and their subsidiaries. Showing me this screenshot as evidence is, frankly, a weak argument for multiple reasons. If you like, we ran 2 tier 6 tournaments tonight, so would you like me to post screenshots of our VK's clapping enemy ARL 44s? @gentle wasp
Lol
@solid gate well you refused to listen to stats and reason so you left me no choice other than to spam you with ss of ARL's wiping the floor with the Vk. Also, your slight to my teammates aside, they were 53-53-55-50-49-48-53 so it is not like we beat a bunch of bots.
That argument can go both ways. I provided statistics and reasoning as well. I dont get why youre coming back like 2 days later posting some random screenshot trying to change my mind, as if you have to have the last word in everything. Im done with this discussion
I provided my opinion, you provided yours, we disagreed and agreed to disagree and move on. Posting that is just childish
It's called having a bit of fun at your expense. No need to get all worked up, if you don't care about having the last word then just ignore it.
Arl needs functional teammates. The vk is more self sufficient. Paper sides an no reverse speed makes the arl die very quickly if your team starts to collapse. The vk can hold off more noobs at once.
in pubs sure but comp is a completely different story
just grab a platoon mate and run arl plat
your point is exactly why the ARL is so good in comp, because you have competent and coordinated teammates that let the ARL work to its strengths.
The armor ignoring gun that the arl has is really nice, but I still prefer the vk. I just can't put up with the reverse speed
the main problem is how much the ARL hard counters the Vk in comp. without its armor the Vk isn't a worthy spot in comp
But I used to run a Jackson in the tier 6 comps. Great for brawling and winning the med side
Jackson shreds, and people don't know
What are the advantages of Jackson over H.Cat
none
much quicker reload and decent frontal armor
Ohhh, so H.Cat sacrifices some reload and literally all its armor for mobility
Not getting HEed by everyone and their brother
@fluid sand pretty much
Everyone sees a hellcat at goes OOHHHH YOLO IT WITH HE
From my experience anyway
I use the VK heavy with the gun with most pen, also the pen equipment, definitely increases.
people are still aggressive vs the Jackson, but that works to your favor since the gun burns stuff to the ground. And its not like you see many people yolo across the map just to get the Jackson.
@low rampart yea don't get me wrong it is a great tank, especially in pubs, but in comp it gets slapped by the ARL, no matter what gun you are using
I'm aggressive with my jackson, and meet them face to face. Its always funny to out medium the meds
The P43 bis is a great medium for tier 6, pretty low profile if you know how to hide it.
Cromwell B is nasty at tier 6
Yes, but...
Don't mind the Jackson about to get a pen buff...
Imo it doesn't need it, I never had a problem sniping with the Jackson. I'm quite surprised at how good it already is.
it definitely doesn't need it, and neither does the Hellcat, D-Max, and definitely not that Jg :/
The buff that scares me the most is the jag88 buff, because they will then refuse to take it back
Yea I am slowly growing to become more afraid of that one. JgPz was the instant one to freak out about, but the JgTig one might be even worse.
350 damage every 5.8 seconds with a decent armor profile.
the armor is quite tough since I'll be facing it in meds.
And unlike the other tds, it actually has a bit of a hp pool
5.8 is also just barely enough to permatrack too
@gentle wasp i told you the 8.8 is going to be an absolute monster post buff
no you didn't
yea i was talking about it legit for 3 days straight after they announced the buff
mhm
If you use the gun depression on it it forces basically everything to prammo it. Gonna be a broken corridor tank
Guys what equipment for the bulldog

The shell velocity increase will surely help snap shooting enemy and also increase your pen a bit if you're in a close distances, while I run the improved consumables will make your gun goes pew pew go brrrrr like a maniac
Is Panther II better than Panther I?
No. Panther 1 is insanely good, Panther II is only a bit above average.
Umm okay so I don't need to sell Panther after researching Panther II 🤔 😌
Thank u btw
Yea Panther 1 is a keeper. And yep, anytime.
Happy Halloween!🎃
Treat or treat, no more trick, this whole year is a trick
Well we got a free E75 TS recently so it was a treat.
Oof lol
I sold panther I after they buffed it for no reason
If you sold it for buying a tank then you got your reasons.
For the German lines, which Tier VII should I go for first? Tiger 1 or Panther 1?
Panther I
Does anyone know here I can buy a Skorpion G Hobby model?
Plastic model?
anything @balmy wagon
I dunno if there's any brand that sell skorpion g model
Maybe Tamiya idk
If you sold it for buying a tank then you got your reasons.
@glass relic I sold it because it felt dirty to drive tank that strong
Good luck finding a model of an obscure prototype
man i need tips for vk3002
the stats on paper is not bad but in action it's true bad
i can't survive, in most of my games since i got the damn mini-jagaroo 8.8cm gun
don't tell me to sell the tank as im grinding hard on it lol
Panther I already had a gun that could easily destroy any heavy tank one on one, and buffing the frontal armor just made it a heavy tank imo. IDK why they made Panther I similar to a heavium when Tiger I already existed but kek
yea, it had stoopid good gun, good mobility and now armour
i need tips for vk3002, pls
get well soon
Thx
It's a just fever and coughing with top modules
Shouldn't be that hard unless you're too young or old lol
It's just like a fully upgraded ST-1
First IS8 mastery for me not quite sure how I got a mastery though
Noobs don't know how to play the is8 is how
And probably supremacy caps
Absolute Mastery of the Centurion 7/1, not even one shot received
Will they give tvp same clip as annihilator?
If so 12s reload and 2s intraclip reload will be good
@flat eagle there isn't one the scorpion g isnt a real tank so no one has made it
Will they give tvp same clip as annihilator?
If so 12s reload and 2s intraclip reload will be good
@open solstice
OP
so i what should i get the t1 heavy?
Just a thought , to make the game more versitile , some antique armored vehicles where constructed with rivets , those are vurneble for High explosives
Welded armor is resisting it
Perhaps a nice feature to add making some heavy tanks crappy on purpose to balance the game
i already have a vk1602 leopard
@jovial forum that's the kind of firepower the tank has in wot pc lol
It would be not really exciting if it had 3000-ish dpm since other autoloader reach close to it
The t110e3 has a 152mm gun right?
155 I believe
why doesnt it make 152mm gun sound?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
155 noises
@lime rapids game doesn't have that many gun sounds
i know
What's the armor of luchs?? For some reason my shots bounced off and into the track
if you're concerned about gun sounds get a nice mod for it, if you're just curious then yea it is because the default gun sounds aren't too detailed
@scarlet echo https://blitzhangar.com/en/tank/luchs
Thx
np
What app should I download armor inspector or wot armor viewer?maybe both?
armor inspector. not sure what wot armor viewer is, sounds like it is PC only
Thx
Armor inspector makes you pay $ to vier high tiers an premiums @scarlet echo
I'll check later then
you can't check the exact penetration match up vs collectors, prems, or t9-10 tanks, but you can still view the armor layouts so it is very much worth getting
What's the armor on chefitain t95 armor?
@flat eagle there isn't one the scorpion g isnt a real tank so no one has made it
@tulip sail but there are like 16 different ones for the E25
check it on blitzhangar/armorinspector
@flat eagle yes but its made up for blitz so the Design is owned by wg
Ahhh
I think they would earn quite a lot if the made a model
Hey WG how much did u earn from WoT Skorpion alone? (Over 1mil dollars) how much did u earn from blitz? (1mil) how much can u earn from an IRL model? (A lot)
https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2/nazi_germany/waffentrager-panthers
It seems like it was a real design, at least a blueprint tank
On or around the 24th of February, 1943, Rheinmetall’s entry for the Selbstfahrlafette für 12.8 cm K 43 und 15 cm sFH 43 Project was assigned the cover name “Skorpion”.
Later-development drawing:
Similar but not exactly the same
how so? similar visual appearance, seems to have the same (or very similar) suspension and armament, and the name is the same.
Different gun and if you look closely Different gun shield
Because it's a drawings
That is literally what the ingame model is based off of
12,8 cm Kanone 43 L/55 in game, the article mentions a 12.8 cm K 43. not the same?
And the gun shield looks pretty much the same.
Look at the gun shape and length the gun in game looks more like a 12.8 cm Kanone 81/1
Why do tanks need a muzzle booster,muzzle brake,compensator all this stuff for the barrels of the recoil is pushing back?
Basically yeah they mostly help with recoil and as a secondary feature to being disrupt the visual muzzle flash
hmmm
I saw one on the russian WOT forums http://forum.worldoftanks.ru/index.php?/topic/1899833-rheinmetall-skorpion-g-150/
I've looked for a scorpion model but I've yet to find one that isn't the light tank
Anyone have any tips for playing the Churchill VII?
I saw that awhile ago but I've yet to find it so my thought is its either scratch built or kit bashed
Yeah, thats my guess too
well, i might just buy the E25 kit then
or if the SKORPION comes out in the store then ill buy it since its a credit machine and fun af
Why is H.E penn so low??
Like in general?
No, pennetration
for what tank
Well, it explodes on contact, so that's why you deal splash instead of ricocheting, if that's what you mean
I think my lttb is a little slow 😐
"Development of the second series of self-propelled guns on the basis of the Panther tank was started by the Rheinmetall company in January 1943. The design plans for the 12,8 cm Skorpion were completed on April 2, 1943. Existed only in blueprints." WOTB wiki 🤔
If H.E explodes on contact why does it hurt the crew and the modules when the explosion is outside?
Cause shrapnel
Most of the damage to soft targets, such as unprotected personnel, is caused by shell pieces rather than by the blast.
Oh ok
Ooooo
How to play Vk 100?
Equipments for Vk 100?
If I buy the isu how to run it?.
I've never used td before and I keep getting absolutely wrecked by them so 130 sounds like a good place to start
If you don't know how to play TD, try it from lower tiers .. grind the line. Buying a TD at this tier, when u r at this type lowskiller is unthinkable and it will hurt your stats. Russian TDs are different to play.. expecialy ISUs.
And ye srry for bad english. Hope u understand
Thanks a lot
When was the last time the t-34-3 was for sale? Really enjoying the 2, and I think I'd enjoy the extra armor despite the small hit to mobility.
@full plover last sold mid-August for around $13
http://forum.wotblitz.eu/index.php?/topic/54156-blitz-economics-premiumcollector-tank-tracker-2020-update/
You're the best and thanks for the link so I can inform myself. Top tier dude.
glad I could help :)
Yeah stubbo is great
T54PL need a nerv and every brit lights too
Once you have your hands on Chimera you won't look back at T-34-3
I have both and still play both while the chimera is better the T-34-3 is still a fun tank
It's still is a fun tank as it doesn't trade it's turret for a THICC box to get 40 more alpha and special consumables.
Henlo, what should i research after getting Maus?. Any suggest?. Im lioking for the best MT nation
121 or 62a are the best meds for beginners
Henlo, what should i research after getting Maus?. Any suggest?. Im lioking for the best MT nation
@upbeat pier idk, Leop 1?
@upbeat pier idk, Leop 1?
@lucid geode Leo 1 is extremely difficult for newbies because it has hardly any form of armor, the 62a is said to be a much more suitable tank to practice med tank playstyle
Equipment for Vk 100? And how should I play it? I've been doing decently so far, but I want to improve.
This equipment treats me well. Most of the time I used it to flat out alpha trade my enemies.
Always look for walls to hide the hatch side of the tank.
And if you do find yourself caught in the middle of a field, do this with the gun to hide the hatch. It works wonders
Another thing, always be wiggling. The lower plate is a lot smaller than many people realize, and people often miss it
yea the tracks eat a ton of shots, they are almost as big as the lower plate
Sidescrape is a real thing too
I love the VK. Stick up the gun, hide the cupola, wiggle, and you'll have a blast. Favorite T8 heavy rn.
One of the best tech tree ratings tanks
Strong tank, but I have a personal preference towards Tiger 2
I like the vk more purely because of the gun
Love that big alpha S L A P
Hide behind your allies mediums. Do not take shots
ok
Play from a bit of a range, and yea keep behind your allies if you can
Also know as meatshielding
good 2 know
@hollow notch that applies to most tanks but yea
Applies to everything except a maus
Go away betta (lol gotem)
if you're concerned about gun sounds get a nice mod for it, if you're just curious then yea it is because the default gun sounds aren't too detailed
@scarlet echo https://blitzhangar.com/en/tank/luchs
@gentle wasp I don't know how to install mods
I’ll PM you a good server

Vehicle Mastery Reward
WOT Blitz players are rewarded with a vehicle skin if they receive a mastery in the vehicle. There would a special legendary skin that is unique to the tank and can only be acquired by skill. It would get players to set goals and be able to show off their knowledge and achievement in game by having this special look when tanking around. My thought is that the skin should be connected to realism and serve as a tribute to the tanks and their crew. There could also be legendary skins attached to medals like the Raseiniai Heroes Medal. This could give you an attachment or a worn look to your vehicle (showing that you stop a whole tank group like the KV did in history). There’s a lot that you can do with giving connections to hard to achieve medals and mastery that are rare for people in the game.
The concept is simple but I think it would create an insensitive for players that are done or complete the game to come back and difficulty of achieving these skins/attachments would increase significantly making players feel good and recognized for their skill.
The Mastery could give the skin and the legendary medal could give the attachment.
An attachment or skin based on your number of aces looks actually cool
But wouldn't it create a "camouflage inflation"?
It would create really unnecessary complexity
It’s a nice idea but:
I mean it could just be one Camo connected to the Mastery. I just really like the idea of a skin connected to skill instead of my wallet. And it doesn’t have to be every tank. I think from tier 8-10 would be good. I mean tier 10 tanks already have attachments and skins. And how cool would it be if you mastered the centurion and got a realistic look like this?
Yes, that does look amazing, but WG doesn’t seem at all interested in making more reward camos, and they definitely aren’t focusing on historical ones.
I guess you’re right. I’m just watching these YouTube videos and reviews and they’re basically all running out of content and talking about how their enjoyment, although still around, is decreasing because they’re running out of things to do other than pay for premium tanks and wait another decent span of time before there will be a new tech tree. I also don’t want to reach that point with this game. I’ve been playing it and enjoying it for a long time. My dad introduced it to me when I was 12 or so and I’m 18 now. I just want to continue enjoying it as much as I used to. However, I haven’t left yet and I still got tanks to grind for so I’ll be around.
Yea I can relate to that. Don’t get me wrong, I am not hating on your idea, I think it is excellent. Sadly WG doesn’t seem to think the same way. Although the game has definitely changed a lot over the years, at its core it is still the same game that first captivated me and many others, and still does to this day.
@gentle wasp I was very far from thinking that you’re hating. I honestly appreciate the feedback and willingness to respond and read what I put up. Means a lot. And yeah, it sure is the same core that keeps me around. If you want to hear my other idea before I call it a night I’d be glad to share it. It also involves unlocking things.
I’m about to go to bed as well, but I would like to hear your ideas. Go right ahead.
Tech Tree Missions
This would be to get the collectable tanks that were removed from the tech tree. I thought of this after I accidentally sold my T-150 in the garage.
Basically, it would be found in the larger mission reward box. There would be a chance that a timed operation would drop like a tank sale giving you a mission that would get you a mid to low tier tank as a reward. Say you got one by chance and it said ‘Deal 8k damage in tier 6 tank in 5 games to receive a collector key part’. You would get around 5 key parts and put them together. That would allow you to open a box that would contain a collector tank.
That would be a cool concept as part of some event/campaign. So far WG has been pretty hesitant to rush out and resell all these tanks, but I am sure they have some ideas of how to reimplement them.
Also, not sure if you are aware of the vehicle restoration which lets you get your T-150 back.
I mean, you know how fun it would be get a BT-7 artillery in a crate after doing missions.
Wait what? How would I go about doing that? Getting my T-150 back.
Right, but one difficulty might be how to balance the missions and what tanks they would apply to. If they were tank specific that seems either grindy or too luck-based, and if they were generalized people would just pick a few tanks and forget the others.
One sec, will get the link.
Contact the World of Tanks Blitz support team. Just let us know how we can help and we'll be happy to assist you.
But then lots of people would be driving around in broke T46 and Pz 2 G
If you’re not NA server you can just change “na” to “eu” or “Asia”. The link should still work.
I get what you’re saying. I guess as far as tank specific goes. It was locked to tech tree vehicles that you can get by just playing the game for free. And thanks for the link @gentle wasp, have a good night.
I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t put that in a crate @inland ivy.
Ah gotcha. Thanks for sharing your ideas. Have a good night @fluid kraken
You ever want to platoon some time, my username is IFIHADACHANNEL. I made a new account to get a better understanding of my WR since I’ve had the old one since I was 12 and just played around without caring.
Oh very cool, I will probably send you a friend request in the morning then
58.88% and climbing from when I last checked with 4K+ games.
Nice job
Although i would appreciate the idea of this
#M3Leeforthewin
I would really love to see APDS as a round type ingame
Nice looking account. If you’re in game right now you can add me, same name.
Add me
Alright, and then I’ll sleep because it’s 3:00 AM in Toronto.
Oooooooof
Same time here
Don’t know how I’d find you but my Clan is League of Boom. If you tell me your clan I’ll add you in the morning.
D2TH clan
no not really
@tired niche the 225 avg dmg and decent frontal armor is good
Itd be cool if Microsoft could sponsor Wargaming and we could get the Scorpion from halo 🤔 most likely will never happen though
Hi, would you recommend KV 1S ? Is good?
Its better than the kv2
Worst dpm in T6
You deal 400 dmg every 17 sec
That's just pathetic and even more boring
@solid gate it is fun glass cannon if you get all top modules on it
stock grind isn't easy tho
Is E50 M newbie friendly?
idk, i am not good with it
so it is not child proof
@jovial forum it's a pretty easy to learn medium, it's a heavy and medium hybrid.
How far down the line are you?
Decently, but all tier 10 meds require some skill
Any recommendations for tier 5 premium tanks?
don't. save up for a tier 6
why not save for the CromB or just buy a T1 Heavy
Buy a Cromwell b for like the same price as a tier 5
Bromwell, D-Max, Agent, Pz IV S. all cheap and fantastically good.
or just go for the ARL 44
Other solid options at tier 6 are su100y, pz 4 s, and the battle pass tanks
Unless you don't have enough for a tier better than 5 I would recommend Ram II or Matilda BP
O
Is enhanced armor better for vk100? Or is improved assembly better?
you want to troll people slightly with slightly thicker armour or rely on RNG to save your tank with extra HP
I see Matilda BP
Ram II comes in the premium shop now and again, you would have to wait for it
you want to troll people slightly with slightly thicker armour or rely on RNG to save your tank with extra HP
@lyric copper So which one do you think is better?
heavily armoured tanks take more armour, lightly armoured tanks take HP
Only take it on heavily armored tanks with angled armor, otherwise HP for everything
I would take HP. the weakspots on the Vk are prominent and pretty, well, weak, so adding a bit of RNG armor to it won't do much. the lower plate and copula/gun mantlet are still going to be an issue. take the HP.
man do I love taking armour on the IS-7 to troll JPz HEAT spammers
@gentle wasp Thanks.
np
@gentle wasp you taking clan members?
yes we are. I'll PM you my recruiting shtick.
Oh yeah I wanted to ask
What tier X should I go for next
I really like the IS-4, Hype 59, T-54, T62A
Candidates so far are:
Obj 140 (at T-54)
-pros: only a 300k exp grind
-cons: not as gud as T62A (which I have)
WZ-113(at WZ 111 1-3)
-pros: Strong heavy tank :)
-cons: WZ 111 1-4 with only gun and turret upgrade is so slow and inaccurate, afraid it will drag down my stats
WZ 121 (at WZ 120)
-pros: none
-cons: WZ 129 worst heckin tank in T9
T57(at Sherman)
-pros: king of autoloaders
Have enough exp to go to tier 6
-cons: don't know which line to grind (concerned about stats)
If you are afraid that you stats get worse then play till you have the free experience...
Wz113
It is a really really good monster, few people play 113 and it is a chineese Maus
Tier 7 has become wack
Can't even fight annhilators and smashers in my bulldog
Wz113 is far from being a Chinese maus
It has worse "usable" armour than a e50 or any Russian med
The turret has some armour but not great (the moment the enemys load gold you toast)
Mobility in the other hand is great (not maus Niveau at all)
And the gun is just very nice
Only good players and pros imo
Don't get me wrong its a good tank, but only in the hands of someone who can use it
Where maus is aliteral no brainer most of the time
Excuse me but, can someone pls explain me what actually just happened?
Your reticle went on the boxes as you were tracking him so the missle lost its target
Oof
Бои на Mk 1* Heavy Tank
World of Tanks Blitz
It was a limited game mode, only Mk1 vs Mk1 for the 10 years of tanks.
is the wz-113 worth or should i get amx 50b
How to play stock t54
Don’t. Use free xp or grind in game modes.
I rage sold my bulldog after being one shot by a camping smasher in 3 consecutive matches
@gentle wasp the FV was highlighted the whole time so it can't be the containers
I was close to getting the t49
@livid yacht what oh nvm
The hit boxes on boxes and buildings are messed up so that is why
Now that's for sure
Lol
WZ 121 (at WZ 120)
-pros: none
-cons: WZ 129 worst heckin tank in T9
T57(at Sherman)
-pros: king of autoloaders
Have enough exp to go to tier 6
-cons: don't know which line to grind (concerned about stats)
When 420 alpha + 3.4k dpm + a russian medium platform isn't enough to be considered a pro
The KV-1S is a good tank as a second line support tank or a frontline creator on medium/light tank fronts. The best way to play the tank in my opinion is to support the mediums by quickly gaining group breaking static positions to encourage a fast flanking. Your ability to maintain a decent speed allows you to get into the heat of battle while using that armor tanks that have decent to poor penetration. Medium tanks are also able to fire between your releads. You shouldn't focus on clearing tanks but instead on dealing but dumps of damage so the focus is brought to them.
Alternatively, if you're going to use this tank to fight alongside heavies. It should be used as a second line support vehicle if you choose to work with the heavies. This means that you work with your team and cover them after reloads when combat gets static or attempt to create a short flank so it's hard to maintain focus. This doesn't mean that you go off alone, instead (when you aren't top tier), you should capture the bases once the frontline advances.
As usual, go hull down when you can and don't go places where gun depression is a major factor (unless you're trying to break static positions). Don't be by yourself and don't try and face hug anybody anymore. You'll bounce while moving and all but side scraping is your go-to (try not to use the commander's hatch side).
Lastly, just some bonus info. You can be 1 shot but a KV-2 frontally. In order for this not to happen, you need to hide that lower plate at all times and don't come out sideways. There's no better feeling than clearing a KV-1S that thinks he's a king or catching an ARL-44 on its side when you're in that tank.
@solid gate
I love my 113 tho.
Has the mobility of a freight train (fast as long as its going straight)
Armor is very bouncy once you tilt the tank behind a ridge
And the gun absolutely sings.
I'm actually pretty sure my DMG record was in the 113 as well
I struggle playing the bulldog
(400 avg dmg)
Will I struggle with the t49 as well
it's a completely different playstyle but you still have to know how to not get rekt
What's your survivability rate
"How not to get rekt"
Lmao
What's your survivability rate
@next solstice
12 percent😅
It's the worst tank I have ever played
Apart from the great reload time ofc
ok yea don't go to tier 8. learn how to play it before rushing to tier 8 with the same armor/speed and a less reliable gun.
Hmmm
Ok thanks for the advice
something tells me you're overexposing yourself
I just researched the T54 as well
yea playing the t49 when you haven't really grasped the paper light playstyle is just going to be a huge frustration for you
My first tier 9
if you hate the bulldog you can drop down to tier 6 and play something like a bromwell or T37 to get the hang of what you are supposed to be doing in tanks like this
The thing is that I did pretty well in both t71 and t37 and even the chafee but bulldog is killing my brain cells> if you hate the bulldog you can drop down to tier 6 and play something like a bromwell or T37 to get the hang of what you are supposed to be doing in tanks like this
@gentle wasp
400 average damage means your playing awfully wrong
I realize that
well to be fair tier 6 and 7 are completely different animals for tanks like that, you have to play the bulldog much more as a flanker on 1 HP all the time since you will face t8 so much, at tier 6 the meta is much more forgiving.
Most of the games I do around 0-300 damage but I did get a mastery with it
yea that is pretty bad. Sure lights like that aren't supposed to focus on damage, but you should be doing at least your hitpoints' worth in damage.
Yea I agree
yea so I would hold off on the T49 for a bit. take a break from the bulldog if you want as well, and when you do come back really focus on the fundementals, value each game and try to learn
Good idea
Thanks for advice
no problem man, I just want you to be able to enjoy the T49 because it is one of the most fun tanks in the entire game
Excuse me but, can someone pls explain me what actually just happened?
@stoic rose you got what you deserved for using missiles lol
@grand linden ohhh no I’m sooo sorry, because it’s MY fault that WG give us this missiles. : (
lol fr tho u playing on touch or pc
Touch
probably lag then
Can war gaming pls buff kv 1s reload and armor,the reload and ar.or is trash and barely bounce any shots
400 alpha just isn't enough for you isn't it
Reload isnt and same as armor on the front
The alpha is great and the pen is nice. Pair that with good mobility and decent armor and you have a great ambush heavium.
If making the KV useless and the T1 Heavy with more armor than the M6 idk what balance is
Buff armor at least to pre 6.2 levels.
this new.... Agent tank or W/E its called..... is it just a reskinned VK 28.01 with no stat changes?
May
@ancient iron take a look at blitzstars tank compare. Not a huge difference but there are several subtle but important changes there.
Why are some tanks with muzzle brakes have a huge reload
Probably because the bigger guns have more of a need for that
Can war gaming so least increase reload pls?
On what the 1s? No, it is great.
? Many tanks have a muzzle brake and fast reload?
Kv 1s is not really great it needs more accuracy and reload speed and just now I could not pen hellcat with H.E
Because you missed
Sounds like a you problem. And if you’re gonna give more accuracy to a 122 at t6 I don’t know what to say
Not a singe damage
Hit the gray, not the ground or his gun
The 1s is very good, it's fast allowing it to close the distance or retreat, it's got OK armor, it's got high alpha and module damage. What more could you need.
I shot the hellcat Manlet and it didn't do anything and I don't have the credits to buy another that isn't as trash as the kv 1s
Don’t shoot HE at his mantlet dude...
The bullet did and my circle was at his hull
The accuracy is what I want
Then the Russian tanks aren't for you
I know and I don't have enough credits for something else
Play tier 1 it's free.
You should look at the characteristics of the tanks you are looking at getting, it helps avoid this kind of thing.
That, and if you are too lazy to do that, you can ask here and get a lot of opinions
If you really wanted a tank that can derp a hellcat the KV-2 exists
Please no
Why on kv 1s accuracy so huge I don't think irl it's that huge
Because this is a game, and it's balancing for a tier 6 tank with a turret and armor. The gun also has high Penetration so Generally speaking it will Penetrate if it doesn't go quite where you aim, as long as you aren't shooting at a mantlet.
Its not that much RNG for a KV-1S
