Not every one.

Also T49 did 400 damage to a heavy shooting underneath it.

tulip sundial
#

Every tank has HE splash, smaller caliber = less HE splash

floral rain
#

No, all HE shells have splash damage. That's the point of HE. Of course, larger caliber HE shells have larger splash radii and more splash damage than smaller caliber ones

solid gate
#

HE does the most splash damage directly underneath the tank

plucky summit
#

I like shooting the bottom of the turret so it connects damage to the deck

solid gate
#

Anyways any tanks can get ammoracked.

tulip sundial
#

Engine decks can work too, if their underside isn’t available

floral rain
#

Woah, you're telling me all tanks have a space to store shells that are fired from the gun they are equipped with? Crazy.

fast compass
#

Well not the lycan. It is impossible to rack that tank

spark basin
#

nah man tanks materialize shells out of existence

solid gate
#

I said racking depends on damage dealt to the ammo.

Small damage = minor.
Heavy damage = ammoracked instantly.

floral rain
#

Woah, all tanks have module damage numbers? Crazy.

floral rain
#

If you check on blitzhangar, yes every tank has a module damage value. That value is how much damage is applied to modules if they take damage.

tulip sundial
#

I believe the 183 HESH has the highest, at 244, which isn’t enough to detonate a 4005’s ammo immediately

solid gate
#

No, the way you say it, it sounds like your just knowing.

pallid arch
#

TS-5 and egg

tulip sundial
#

The only way for the 4005 to be ammo racked instantly is for it to have taken previous ammo rack damage, and have not repaired it

floral rain
#

Yes because I spend way too much of my time on blitzhangar looking at tank stats

solid gate
floral rain
#

No, I'm a poor boi

tulip sundial
#

One thing I know for sure is that I can ammo rack an Emil 1 with the clip of a Lorraine

solid gate
floral rain
#

I think there's also an independent 2% chance for the ammorack to detonate but I'm not sure

solid gate
#

It's not about chance.
Depends on hp.

floral rain
#

It very much is about chance. On hit, ammoracks have a 27% chance to actually take damage, in which case module damage is then taken into account
I think that's how it works but I'm not actually sure

solid gate
#

Hp has nothing do with module damage factor unless it’s the modules theirselves

#

It is already said that FV4005 ammo has 260 hp.

#

Which means if the 27% chance comes through and its critical then it will ammorack.

The damage increases the chance.

fast compass
#

Damage has no correlation to the chance of damaging a module

solid gate
#

For example a tier X hitting a tier one:

Ammoracked instantly.

spark basin
#

no lol

solid gate
#

Omg

floral rain
#

No

solid gate
#

I mean it is dead instantly by alpha but never an ammorack lol

#

If you hit the ammo. 😔

#

Smh

floral rain
#

Still needs to roll inside the 27% chance to damage the ammorack and then needs to have more module damage than ammorack hp

solid gate
#

The damage can increase the chance above 27%

Making it 100%

plucky summit
#

The damage makes no effect, the module damage stat DOES

floral rain
#

No, it is always 27%

plucky summit
#

It's just that higher caliber guns tend to have more module damage

solid gate
#

So the chance depends buddy.

floral rain
#

The only thing damage, like damage values of shells, does is take away that much damage from your tank's hp

plucky summit
#

Nothing about ammo racks

floral rain
#

If you hit the ammorack of a tank, there is a 27% chance for that shell to damage the ammorack. That's the first step. If you do get within that 27% chance, then it brings module damage into account.

solid gate
#

Yes but that's for close tiers.
=)

floral rain
#

No, it's for all tiers

plucky summit
#

So basically if a 183 hits you and pens you in an IS-7 on the ammo rack, you have a 27% chance to die on the spot

floral rain
#

I am at a loss to how I can explain this more detailed without diving into forum posts and coming up with an essay

fast compass
#

Essay! Essay! Essay!

solid gate
#

Yes because it's the same tier.
Also take note that in blitz specially ammoracks also depend on the tanks hp. Do you notice you get ammo normally on very low hp?

plucky summit
#

I remember when the chances were 33%

@solid gate the turret popping when a tank dies depends on the tank's HP

solid gate
#

Ammoracks do not depend on the tanks HP

floral rain
#

No? Module hp has no correlation to tank hp

plucky summit
#

The game says you got ammo racked when your turret pops off of overkilled HP, but you actually didn't, the enemy doesn't see "ammo exploded"

solid gate
#

When someone critically damages you then they shoot your ammo it always blow off.

plucky summit
#

The game lies to you, a lot

solid gate
#

And you see the symbol not only that.

floral rain
#

If your ammorack is already damaged and you get shot in the ammorack again first of all why didn't you repair it and second if they roll within that 27% chance and your module hp becomes 0 you get ammoracked

plucky summit
#

I don't see the symbol for ammo racks when I overkill HP

I see a turret flying

solid gate
#

Yes if its a stable 27% chance then why when someone shots right after that you blow up answer that.

floral rain
#

I don't know how the second equipment slot and protective kit factor into module durability and im too tired to care

plucky summit
solid gate
#

Yes so super 27% and it happens all the time wow.

plucky summit
#

I must explain again, it says you got ammo racked but that's only for you, it lies when you die on low HP that way

solid gate
#

I also ammorack people instantly when I have the weird crew ability ...
Always happens.

plucky summit
#

The Sniper one?

solid gate
#

No precision fire.

floral rain
#

Let's take an example of an IS-7 against a 183

First of all, a 183 needs to actually hit one of the several ammoracks the IS-7 has. If it does, the game then calculated whether or not that 183 landed within the 27% chance. If it didn't, no ammorack damage is applied, but the tank itself still takes 1300 or so damage. If it does land within the 27%, module damage is then applied. I think is-7 has 210 ammorack hp, which is less than the 183's 244 module damage on HESH. The IS-7 then gets wiped off the face of the earth.
If there's anything wrong with what I said, feel free to correct me

solid gate
#

Yes, yes, yes. The HESH hit the lower plate and it exploded.

plucky summit
#

Precision fire is a chance for the fourth consecutive damaging shot to max roll on damage

floral rain
#

Unless you see the ammorack icon pop up after a shot you haven't hit the ammorack

solid gate
#

How does that make sense.
Yes offcourse

plucky summit
#

It's 210 HP
(_b o-o)_b

floral rain
#

Ty

plucky summit
#

Anyways you must've just max rolled tanks to death, being surprised that you did such high damage, you might have assumed it was an ammo rack

Actually, send me clips of these ammo racks from precision fire

Only tank that got ammoracked was the is7
Which I literally just wrote a block of text about

plucky summit
#

First kill shot killed with a fire
Second kill shot killed based on damage > HP
Third kill shot killed based on damage > HP
Fourth kill shot killed based on damage > HP
Fifth kill shot killed based on damage > HP, but was an ammo rack anyways
Sixth kill shot killed based on HE splash damage > HP
Seventh kill shot killed based on HE splash damage > HP

#

Our point stands, your evidence is invalid to your argument

solid gate
#

Yep, what's your point?

floral rain
#

Idk, what's your point on showing the video?

plucky summit
#

My point is that you used faulty evidence, nobody died due to an ammo rack, the IS-7 was going to die anyways from sheer damage

solid gate
#

Because you were saying that it wasn't possible for IS-7 ammoracked by lower plate.

plucky summit
#

Oh it's possible, I never said it wasn't

floral rain
#

I never said that but ok

floral rain
#

Where in that block of text do you see the words "lower plate"

solid gate
#

Says nothing about lower plate in that text

solid gate
#

Yep, the whole world knows, so you were saying on there you have to directly hit the ammorack which is incorrect.

plucky summit
#

Here was the faulty statement

floral rain
#

Except you do need to directly hit the ammorack for the ammorack to take damage. There could be something about HE shell burst radius but you need to hit something to damage it

plucky summit
#

The only indirect ammo rack damage is from HE and I think fires, boom.

#

Again, I only think, not a definite statement about the fire possible causing ammo rack damage

solid gate
#

183 HESH blast radius is 5 so when it exploded inside it destroyed it instantly. Besides the HESH has 1300 alpha.

floral rain
#

And here we go again about module damage

plucky summit
#

Well yes, it hit that 27%

solid gate
#

Yes so 27% is common now.

plucky summit
#

Yes because it's a core mechanic to ammo racks -_-

I think he meant in the convo

floral rain
#

No its not

#

27% is slightly above 1/4th which is imo not high enough to be relied on

solid gate
#

So why when you hit high tiers with 400 damage it won't ammorack and when you hit the ammo with 740+ it always ammorack?

Dealing 400 damage won't even damage it.

plucky summit
#

That's just false...

solid gate
#

Yes nothing is true....

floral rain
#

Alpha damage and module damage, once again, are completely different things. Highest module damage possible is 183 hesh at 244. Likewise, tank hp and module hp are different things

plucky summit
solid gate
plucky summit
#

You're using biased experience, I will literally shoot you with a deathstar just to prove I don't ammo rack you every time

floral rain
#

Shot in the dark here but I don't think you do

solid gate
#

Yes we can test tier I
Just know where the ammo is.

floral rain
#

Yes because tier 1 against a tier 10 is a very accurate way of determining anything

plucky summit
#

Sure thing @solid gate

solid gate
#

You said there's a 27% chance, so go ahead.

#

That’s like saying an AT gun could kill a man directly because of the wounds and not the actual projectile

plucky summit
#

But I must remind you, it will say you died from an ammo rack on low HP, but it's not mechanically an ammo rack, it's a bug

floral rain
#

Good luck getting a tier 1 to survive more than 1 shot

tulip sundial
#

The ammo rack in the IS-7 pile nose is relatively far back, what I mean by vantage point is that you need to be lower so that you can shoot up into it

solid gate
plucky summit
#

Yes, I understand, but that implies you must directly hit it

plucky summit
floral rain
#

They tell you in a loading screen tip lmao

solid gate
#

So why it's a bug?

plucky summit
#

Because of faulty programming =)

@floral rain I think it says 33% in the tip

solid gate
#

WG is not stupid.
Even if they were they would've patched after these years.

plucky summit
#

They aren't, even the best devs get bugs

#

No, the ammo rack thing came up in recent updates

solid gate
#

Yes tanks turrets could never blow off.

floral rain
#

Debatable but ok.
If the shooter doesn't see a yellow ammorack crit and the person getting shot doesn't have a yellow ammorack, there's not an ammorack.
Same thing with ammorack detonation

plucky summit
#

@solid gate yes, the turret pops off, when the tank gets shot to death after it has 4% or less of its total HP

floral rain
#

The turret blowing off either happens because of an ammorack explosion (any hp) or when you are on really low hp (like 5% or so) and get shot

solid gate
plucky summit
#

No.

solid gate
#

If it was 4%, ammoracking would have been a theory.

Guys i just read is2 tank in this link

World of Tanks

Soviet IS-2 tanks were exported to China in the early 1950s and were used during the Korean War from 1950 through 1953. According to U.S. reconnaissance data, at least four Chinese tank companies deployed in Korea had the IS-2 tank, with five tanks in each company. The IS-2 remained in Chinese service until the late 1950s. Production was discont...

Gonna need to be a little more specific than that

Dunno, haven't really looked at the 34 100

faster with actual pen, and still gets 7 degrees of gun depression.

The Leo armor is way overrated.

calm stratus
#

Does it matter? It's fin stabilised

kindred wren
#

Fin stabilisation has nothing to do with penetration

calm stratus
#

It does, a lot actually

kindred wren
#

Anyways, the tank was introduced in 1966

#

No, fin stabilisation only matters for ballistic reasons. The only ballistic thing that really matters for HEAT is the rotation because it allegedly interferes with the Munroe effect

calm stratus
#

"Alledgedly"

kindred wren
#

Yes, it’s one of the arguments against rifled guns

calm stratus
#

HEAT warheads are less effective if spinning, and grow ever less effective with faster spin. This became a challenge for weapon designers: for a long time, spinning a shell was the most standard method to obtain good accuracy, as with any rifled gun. The centrifugal force of a spinning shell disperses the charged jet.
It's pretty much a fact it trashes the pen

#

Anyway
I think IS-7 should get a 6 shot autoreloader

8s intraclip
13s when empty
15s to load more rounds

Why? Well it had a 6 round loading assisted ready rack

kindred wren
#

Disperses the charged jet?

#

The jet is made out of metal, not even molten metal. I have a hard time believing that it disperses

a bump will only mess up 3 or 4 degrees, a huge bump is a ridge

i played a lot of tanks with 5 degrees or less, only tanks i had problems with the gd was the wz120 and T-54. IS-4 and WZ-113 both have 6 degrees and if anything they are overperforming

tulip sundial

They’ve also got something else that’s going for them tho, IS-4 is a great generalist with decent armour, great turret and a good gun

Wz-113 has an amazing turret (I think) and great dpm

so does the wz110

tulip sundial
#

I was wiggling and a Tiger was smacking that cupola with ease, I had to pull back because no matter how I hid it he’d smack me there (spot wasn’t the greatest but still)

#

The turret itself is good, but those cupola’s stick out like a sore thumb

#

And since it’s a smaller tank, most tall tanks won’t struggle hitting them

solid gate
#

learn something called gun blocking cupolas and wiggling your turret

#

i always do that in my e5 and 252u

tulip sundial

Gun blocking isn’t guaranteed to work and I literally just said I already was wiggling, it doesn’t change a tonk

#

E5 and 252U cupola’s aren’t that large tho, making them easy to gun block

neither is the 110s. You were probably having a lot of bad games and you may not be used to the tank. Same experience I had in my e75 and tiger 2.

Could be, I found long to med range can work, or if you play as a second line support heavy (depending on what’s on your team) can work, but the tank still feels worse than other tanks I’ve played

Mäuschen is good?

Also lttb > t43

solid gate
#

If you run calibrated, you are throwing your 2nd highest dpm for tier 8 out of the window. If you want to increase penetration, firstly, ISU penetration is already overkill, and last but not least, the penetration boost on AP/APCR from calibrated is very negligible at best and in most cases useless.

#

Calibrated is overrated, only consider it if you have HEAT, HESH, a derp gun that fires a lot of HE, or if the other choice is freaking vents.

Man I hate heat
Such a trash shell

lyric oriole
#

I hate HEAT too

kindred wren
#

I thought that it doubles normalisation because (due to penetration) it only really takes effect when you go beyond the ricochet angle, but in order to still have a chance to pen there you need the 3-caliber rule to take effect.

As it happens, your normalisation is about doubled when your caliber is three times the nominal armour which lead to my false conclusion

HEAT doesn’t bounce

#

On pc, everyone sidescrapes at autobounce angles, which is where heat shines

But in blitz, nah, heat is just bad

kindred wren
#

To be fair HEAT shells weren’t just outright better, and it took some time for it to overtake the purely kinetic rounds in penetration

lyric oriole
#

I feel like HEAT in the other games is good, but there's something about blitz that makes it bad

kindred wren
#

HEAT actually autobounces on PC, unlike on Blitz

hollow notch
kindred wren
#

HEAT has the same pen drop-off in Blitz as in the other games, so...

hollow notch
#

Another reason why heat is bad

kindred wren
#

Maybe Blitz is just faster which makes aiming carefully less important

kindred wren
lyric oriole
#

I think the point he's making is how it has a chance to always fail on top of spots it can't go through

hollow notch
#

Blitz rng is different. You get pinpoint accuracy on a lot of shots. On pc it is very rare to actually hit dead center

kindred wren
#

The accuracy powercreep surely didn’t help the matter

hollow notch
#

I am a firm believer in accuracy doesn't matter

kindred wren
#

In fact, I think that the RNG isn’t different at all, it’s just that all tanks in Blitz are insanely accurate for PC standards (and the engagement ranges are lower)

#

Accuracy is just a number

And that hurts tanks like the Leopard 1 the most

lyric oriole
#

121b is very accurate too

kindred wren
#

Blitz also has equipment and provisions that can boost stats a lot more than on PC, causing the accuracy to be even better

hollow notch
#

I'm pretty sure pc used to hit dead center every so many shots, but they removed that due to things such as the kv2

lyric oriole
#

We also have hitskins so it inadvertently makes the Accuracy better which is a major factor

kindred wren
#

No, they discussed removing the normal distribution but discarded it

The tanks are already derp enough there as it is, but legend has it that if you say “Russia” when shooting you get better RNG

ocean lantern
#

Ok, thank you. Am I Right in saying that the superpershing has more turret armour, and the T26E5 more hull armour than the super Pershing?

gentle wasp
#

The Super Pershing turret (and armor in general) is massively overrated. the bulky spaced armor gives the appearance of good protection but in reality, average pen can go right through it. Pictures incoming.

ocean lantern
#

Thank you!

gentle wasp
#

Chimera has about average t8 standard pen. you can see that the spaced armor on the SP (top picture) really doesn't hold up well. however, you can argue that the SP has better hull armor. not really worth having that bad of a turret on a gun depression-centric tank though.

True. I’m just not fully sure the T26E5 would suit my playstyle in a way, as I like decent hulk armour. I struggled occasionally with the T-34-1 as it has very little hull armour

fair enough. I would definitely steer clear of the SP though. there are far better premiums to be had.

the T26E4 doesn't have that great of a hull though, so if you're looking for a tank with a strong hull neither of these tanks really fit the bill

Ok. I have the standard Pershing anyway, and I haven’t played it much, but I play it as a support medium to the heavies, which I find effective, so something with a bit more armour to suit the same role would be good. Thanks a lot for the help though 😁

gentle wasp
#

t8 meds are fairly substandard as a whole, but you could try tech tree tanks like the Indien Panzer, T-44, or Panther II. They should have enough all around armor for your needs.

Ok, thanks!

Also, I got the super pershing and had almost immediate buyers remorse.

Oh really? Why’s that?

gentle wasp
#

t8 average is 216 base, Chimera has 218.

sudden plover
#

It is slow for a medium. It cant flex into the light role at all which I enjoy. Instead it plays entirely as a heavy support.

ocean lantern
#

Ok, thank you. That seems like something that would suit my playstyle. Thank you

fresh vine
#

Although the chimera does fit in well with heavies due to the damage, I believe it is most effective against medium tanks as it has higher alpha damage than any medium at tier 8.

More like the recoil would shatter the turret rings

Keep in mind that higher velocity gun has more recoil, and the kv2 derp gun is already strong enough to rip the turret ring in half if fired incorrectly. Also the recoil from a bl10 might make the kv2 do a backflip

Unless you like it slowish with a big boom, then try tank destroyers

I'll try lights, which one do you suggest for start?

kindred wren

American lights, because they also open a route to the T57 Heavy and because they are both fast, have good gundepression and later on come with a derpy gun

#

I don’t recommend Soviet or German lights because they don’t go all the way to tier ten, and British lights are essentially just mediums with a twist

French lights are an interesting bunch with their autoloaders, so it’s a bit of a gamble whether they are your style. However the line is very consistent so if you like the tier six and seven you will most likely also like the higher tier tanks

E 50M is a good one

it depends on what you want, autoreloaders are good in wotb as well so you could consider the progetto 65. The STB-1 is also a general good choice, really strong for hull down.

ye Progetto is kinda looking nice, but the people I asked said that its kinda trash

#

and that 121 and E50M are better choices

nah imo it's still a great tank, even after they nerfed it. Though if you do like the Chinese MT playstyle (really low aim time, high alpha), the 121 is an amazing tank to pick.

I guess the 121 and the T62A are not that diffrent and it would be probably kinda lame, so I will go for progetto since it has a at least more diffrent play style, thank u guys

@rich blade Meds are pretty rough on Blitz, ngl.

Best tech tree meds are probably TVP, T-62A, and STB-1, but TVP and STB-1 are pretty awful grinds for a new account. Other than those, Prog is probably the next best.

Another not commonly realized issue with 263 is the camo

solid gate
#

Mediums cant penetrate your frontal armor even with gold, you out DPM them, your traverse and top speed is good enough for CQC, plus the alpha advantage

lyric oriole
#

The gun has to constantly fire which makes the camo rating tank artificially

#

Keep in mind against mediums if they go to any position lower than you, or if they take advantage of actually having a turret it's game over

solid gate
#

Its situational

#

I wouldnt go after a medium in a 263 in an open field, but extreme CQC like the rails side on himmelsdorf are perfect because they have little room to out maneuver you

definitely much better in cities rather than hills, afaik

@solid gate

Spotting is the most important. It gives your entire team valuable information about enemy movement, positioning, and of course exposes them to being shot.
Early game spotting is also useful for letting your team know where the enemy team are initially going, you can position accordingly, and sometimes you can get a free shot in. Maps like Rockfield, Middleburg and Black Goldville you can spot out enemy tanks fairly quickly in the game.

You also want to be using the mobility to relocate or get to positions to pester enemy tanks (particularly their backline).
It’s really about reading the battle and map, and thinking about where you can position to flank the enemy and get shots in, and where you can support your teammates.

https://youtu.be/a88TBYAsGxk

I recommend you have a watch of this when you can. I watched it, and it can give you a good general understanding of what kind of things you should be aiming to do in your light tanks.
The RoyalFatness BC clip (which I believe is the last clip) is particularly useful.

I hope I helped you out a little bit here

How to light tank, know your role!

Today we are going to be talking about how to play light tanks, how using that mobility to get close early on to spot the team. And using it to recolate when needed
