Tanki online?
Kpfz has a nice gun as well
Pretty sure wg will censor me
It’s a pretty accurate ngl
Like 12 seconds of reload, fair mobility, your set dude
Love being a tier V-VI TD or light with >600 health and facing tier VIIs with 1600 health. Mmf. Peak gaming
club better
European TD branch when
Use French and British TDs
Doesn’t count I mean the European tech tree
technically he wasn't wrong
Well technically I don’t care about the British or French trees
There's the German tds
Tru
I guess you could argue Russian as well
Less so... but yes
Should i go for m4a3
It's up to you, it's not really good right now though
is any of the Chinese tanks good or worth getting?
Big alpha, terrible accuracy
@celest dawn yeah i would say wz 121 and 113 are fun
the TD grind is apparently good
30 seconds? its 20
I think T-29 is still a better choice as of this moment. M-VII-Yoh has a huge area of weakness at the hull even the M-III-Yoh that is easy to pen. At stock, I would still go for T-29.
the yoh line cooler
It's worth if you're going up the line ._.
Well.... I think M-VII-Yoh should be treated like slow heavium and act as the second line and support tank behind the strong heavy tanks.
I want to see Turbo armor on Tier 6 battle, anyone have pic?
I hope I can send one for you. I love this tank as a light medium.
@lavish epoch
they seem fast
It's just a decorated Strv 74
ah
That tank is not worthy of a legendary camo
Sell this tank? I feel like selling it no matter what angle im in i get shot up fast as a light tank
It’s rubbish, the normal one, believe it or not, has better stats. And no keep the sherif. Learn how to play it hulldown
Tried that
Idk what to tell you... just play it carefully then. Run with the mediums
My other heavies survives longer
In reality the e5 is a buffed up Pershing.
my t1 heavy survives a bit against a t10
I'm used to play paper-armor tanks like Pz. T-25 and a bit of speed buff really helps it to run away from other tanks. This Turbo reminds me of my beloved Pz. T-25.
Turbo is not stonks.
Im used to soaking damage and ram with heavies especially in my tiger2
Well you can call it rubbish because you get easily killed because of the weak armor. It is all about how you play a tank. I can run away and find a better spot where I can peek and deal damage to the enemy. Explorer has similar armor to Cromwell, well it is based on Cromwell, with buff on reload time and lower traverse speed than the Cromwell. I get Ace Tank Mastery on Explorer.
I have ace on my action x
Feels like a cheat tho everyone was ignoring me as i was next to them shooting
lol
They literally eyed down my whole time and not once looked at me
I WAS THE BLOODY CLOSEST TO THEM but instead of turning around and orbit me to oblivion they all stayed looking at my team
Like i was fighting noobs
The action X is a cheat
The turret is nice armour nice until someone pulls out special ammo
i always have a team of noobs most of the time, except for when im in a plat then rarely the team is good
If you like your action x then you should have no problem with the sherif
And the sherif is actually better lol
Basically they're too busy shooting at your teammates and you're the one flanked and get to kill most of the enemy tanks.
F the dam sheriff i die sooo easily when i tried it
It can suck peanuts
Exactly the action x is overrated, there is plenty more fish in the sea
Yep which happened on the snow map
Well just get gud mate.
Turret is way tougher on the sherif than Action x
Maybe try to not show the hull?
Tried that kv5 still slapped me
No way that happened.
High ground mate i did not have it
KV-5's primary ammo is APCR and HEAT is the premium ammo.
You must have showed your hull or positioned yourself wrong.
You must always hull down and have the high ground
At least for the penetration gun
Still tho im not touching it
Im just gonna use my m6e5
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh yeah. I immediately upgraded to the top gun for 100 XP because of high pen.
In fact, if you ignore the cost of premium shells, using that in place of the penetration standard shells gives an advantage of accuracy, and DPM, with losses to only the alpha
Wrong name
I usually use premium shells on emergency situations or the enemy tank is dying. HE shells are always low in number in my ammo count.
I mean the premium shells for the stock gun
Like I said, I immediately upgraded to the top gun.
The reason why i said the kv got me because when i got my turret to only show the yoh ran away but the kv5 stayed
219mm suffices, even with APCR's normalization loss, and trades alpha for DPM and accuracy, almost like a smaller gun, just with a cost
KV 5 is bad
Don't buy
what about the churchills?
Get Lowe, likely the best investment as a tier 8 that's always available
@echo fern what about them?
are they any good?
Churchill I has an unrecognized meme gun, and it is overshadowed by T1 and BDR, and Churchill 7 is like a TOG that traded lots of HP for armor, so no viable. Churchill VI is a hardcase tank with a bad turret roof that must be hidden to remain viable against most standard and some premium shells
ah. ok coz on my other acc i have a churchill I
Black Prince is the best churchill variant, with a fair amount of penetration and phenomenal DPM, with solid armor
is it a premium? the black prince?
Nope, tier 7 brit heavy
ok ill take a look now
found it. dont have the churchills yet on my main but im trying for the m6
Going for the Yohs?
For now, yes, but you better be quick before WG might nerf some
nerf?
Making stats of a tank worse for the sake of balance
I got both the T-29 and M-VII-Yoh. T-29 is still a good choice even when it is in stock config. You can go for M-VII-Yoh but you need to immediately upgrade with whatever free XP you have.
name a good tier 7 tank everyone enjoy playing
Annihilator ofc
Tiger I, T-29, Tiger P, KV-3, IS. Actually lots of them from the tech tree
Im still going through the church hills
Turbo is slightly faster, and has spaced armor in lots of places (not easy to derp with KV-2, big pro), it only loses some turret armor (still, spaced armor can block), and accuracy
I might go for several rounds of matches for Turbo to see where it fares. I got lucky with my first match and got 1st class tank mastery and 1st in damaged dealt.
Wait...no wonder I'm still alive against KV-2
I thought it was obvious
is that a premium tank?
Indeed it is, but I still answered your question, you didn't specify what type :p
Behold my hybrid nation
my bad
I only realized it today. My last match last night was with Turbo.
Lucky you Q_Q
Lucky me :p
Lol
Seriously, I had to HE the cupola of an SU-100, had to oneshot, I landed it, and I had to hope VK 36 was skilled enough to hold the Smasher
Sometimes I love SU-152, but other times it wants you to quit the game for the day
WTF are these 4 doing? Getting killed by Lupus and Smasher?
They're ever so nice to give me all the damage and create one of the most legendary battles of my career
I can't not thank them, they let stuff like this happen, 40%ers are good for da game
More like heroes
I should be their friends
Who knows? Maybe they had a little mind game goin on where they did the strategy of "we take the shots while our top tier TD gets the damage, leading to a win"
With skill and good handling of the tank, you can win against the powerful tanks
Without 40%ers, there's no 60%ers
This is why we play this game, for moments like these
No good without the "bad"
Ay im in the 40% xd
I'm at 51% but matched mostly below 50%-ers
Good job absorbing shots for your teammates 👍
Some tanks are just unplayable or outdated
With pleasure
Not fun when the team is stupid im literally a giant tank soaking up damage instead of helping they run away
Well, you get those types of players on the enemy team too so you gotta be thankful
If you rid them from the game, you'll be matched up with pro players, and that's not good for you or the game
That's also true so im grateful where i am i just wish some people just help tho
I met a lot of good and bad players
Even if both teams are fully composed of professionals, one has to win
The skill of the playerbase is relevant, and not completely defined by WR
Accidentally pissed off one person saved someone from a 1 shot i ended up blocking his bullet at the same time saving him
People are selfish, they jump to the "WHY?!" instead of the "why?"
I was in my 168
And yes an all caps😅
Fun fact about the 168, even the best gun in the game couldn't touch the right player
I should have let that person die if he was gonna be rude
When I see ur stats : No YoH
Thx for showing i can block them too which i did not know
the unicum will do the epic gamer demonic ritual and pen the turret ring
OP
Or they can just rush them
Its usually tank destroyers or light tanks that rush me while the rest peak corners
i don't think it has any benefit
they were probably just trying to make something unique
Send a formal message to the Yoh Company =3
French light to med tanks are just paper with wheels
Yes, so you use their mobility and gun combination to be effective
Learned that after i died around 50 times to broken tracks and fire on light tanks
lol
Sadly it's a heavy medium like T26E4, and struggles to do anything but 1v1 meds
Is that the sheriff one
I also noticed no one asked how i got over a mil coins now xd
No it's the Super Pershing
You probably sold a tank
Where can I get that
And I did after i used it in three different matches
Gonna try it when i have enough gold
Don't, get the Lowe instead
Same area?
Yup
Ok
I got the Lowë for 10 $ great value, pretty sure it came with premium and everything
Very great value, good tank, phenomenal credit earner
I dont understand the peak around the corners and everything besides the French light tanks i like being support as being a heavy soaking up damage while shooting so everyone else can also shoot while i block
Lowe is a great support heavy too
I want the O-I, even if it's a premium, but sadly it's too large for the game
I will get it then
I really don't care for damage i will still try to get the highest i find more joy being the medic etc on games😂
Lowe is good for damage too, probably the best heavy gun in tier 8
Quick question which tank should i avoid tho
Im automatically gonna avoid the large tank destroyers and the panther destroyer kinda but not much as long their not invisible
Avoid in battle, or avoid to buy?
In battle
Mostly spots where TD's can see you from where they usually are, avoid being too far in enemy lines, and avoid trying to engage multiple targets.
Play your advantages against one target, and account for where your allies or enemies are
@wintry pike oh it can sidescrape alright
It. Can. Wiggle the turret and let the troll armor do the work
Thx and i shall
Imagine if the turret couldn't go through walls while turning
Eesh, if guns had actual physics
Last times physics hit me i underestimated fall distance and got stuck facing at the ground with my 168 after trying to hop off a bridge
I regretted doing that as i watched the whole enemy team stared at me before killing me
If you get stuck like that, best bet is to rotate constantly to one side
Only thing that moved was the turret the wheels was touching nothing
Just a best bet :p
It was that city map where the bridge have slots that you can jump off of
Ok so where did WG get the design of the hull of the t110e5. Doing some digging (aka Wikipedia) I came across the info that the t110 proposal 3 (t110e5) had wooden mock up with a bow shaped hull (a hull that similar that the chieftain mk 6). I feel like this would have been a better model than the current elliptical (egg shaped) hull we have now.
It would not serve better, the lower plate is large and would be a much easier target than the egg shaped hull the E5 currently has
See T95E6's hull for a decently accurate shape
Another tank mastery for Turbo
Only 2nd class ._.
I know. It's just my 2nd time playing with it.
mm
I'm loving it
is the engine located in the back of the turret? lmao
Yup. All Yoh tanks have their engine behind the turret which is easy to hit and start it to go ablaze
wonky tank design
Nope, only the tier 7 has the engine in the turret
Oh alright
No APCR? Brave.
when does anyone think smasher or annihilator will be sold again im tired of being murdered by them and I am gonna get them whenever they come out again
ayo 0 creds gang
You can get the Smasher from those crates in the shop. I think it's the Collect them all ones?
I will check when they are out again I think your right though
Yes
I hear you
Their still out😂 never did leave the store
These are still out but they are a huge gamble
So you are wasting quite the gold if you are unlucky.
I spent 3k gold and got Def Mk. 1 which was enough for me to never bother with them again.
But that is just being extremely lucky
I spent a lot of gold
A lot
Gambling for ye.
Si better than the tickets at the store i actually got things back on here than irl
I spent enough gold to buy all the special tanks from the tank store 3 times over
Is it worth it? for me yes and no i got nice tanks
And i have a lot of premium access (extra coins) and credit stuff like experience
Last time i spent on the boxes i got the smasher and M60
When does wg sell T9 or T10 gold cars
AMD Panhard 178B is a light tank with car wheels instead of tracks
lmao what
Freedom
The new camo really looks bad. And why is it called pride ?
cuz its pride month
I can't lie, it's a shame to name a bad camouflage as 'Pride' during the pride month.
bc 25 ap engine/tracks first or gun first?
Im gonna snipe with my yoh
no cringe
Worthy Four#1131 was banned
Yes
Crusader.
Crusader, even if the AMX is more fun
How come so many players have the vindicator?
I think they can afford to buy it
Thought it was free for a sec
Well it was free by random chance the first time it was around
Opening the weekly crates for the original event could get it free potentially
Hehehe that grind hurt
I spent 1200 gold trying to get them and I got a better surprise lol
I got AC IV Sentinel
And then IS-6 in the next crate
So I was satisfied but not by the event
I just fully no lifed the event. Got 2 trash tier 7s out of it.
And even better, I sold the predator (for credits) at a time where they enforced the number of reclaimed tanks per year.
So I didn't even get 2500 gold out of it
Any thoughts about the Chrysler and IS-2Sh?
Is2sh is bad, the Chrysler is acceptable
Why is IS-2Sh bad? Is it worse than KV-5?
It's a bit better than the kv5 because it has a functional gun, but the armor on it is severely lacking
How about the Chrysler?
I guess KV-5 is better in armor but IS-2Sh has a better gun (122mm caliber)
Maybe, but the kv5 armor is severely lacking for what it is
The only thing I find underwhelming about the Chrysler is the gun
Well...they follow the specifications of the KV-5 armor of 180 mm
The specifications are quite good to me TBh that makes me wanna get one
now what should i go now ?
gun, track or engine ?
Gun
Gun
gun first on almost every tank
I killed some yoh with a Sheridan, he called me a hacker cause I was faster and could out turn him 😂
Imagine thinking people hack in blitz, you can only down load wall hacks, etc. but nothing that makes you faster or stronger.
Pretty sure wall hacks still count as hacks
got the armorprof in blitzhangar for ts5...
nice?
T3RR0R1ST4#5942 was banned
viking. good or bad? or decent enough
pretty good tank. whether it's worth the price is up to you, but it's not just a straight up worse Emil
Apparently
The ace bar for the su 101 is somewhere below 1150 exp
No one plays this thing
But it's wonderful
No one plays it because it's pretty much not wonderful. The DPM is pretty low for a tier 8 TD, and so is the alpha. The accuracy is meh, and the gun depression and rear mounted gun are also pain
Sure 2.5k is pretty low
But its still a 122mm
420 dmg isn't something everyone wants to take
Accuracy doesn't rally matter tbh
80% of my shots hit the target regardless of if I aim or not
Gun depression is a minus but the rear mount has its advantage
Also for the fact that it has this Russian troll armour (and gun)
And mobility
I enjoy it very much
Rear mounted TDs only have an advantage if they have alpha or can point the gun down otherwise no that’s not an advantage
There are some nice walls on every map that you can go Hull down on because of how high the gun is mounted
That's a plus for me
Sure but why play that when heavies to it better.
Overkill pen? Useless because its, well, overkill.
Because I like it
I do decent in it so it must be good
I'm talking about my experience with it though
Not the general player base
So that sarcastic comment can go elsewhere
No I like it here but thanks for your feedback
Then I can't do anything
Enjoy your stay~
🙂
Interesting
Got ace on T2020
Might as well play a jagdpanther2.
Fellow T-2020 (hopefully pre-buff too) enjoyer
Nope
I lied to look cool did get over 2k damage tho
Whats that
Only ace i have is on my action
5,000+ damage with a 1v3 victory, that’s what I pulled off in T-2020 when it was “trash”
First time i survived a fight like that i survived with 15 hp in my tiger 2
Cracked armor is cracked
If i had to keep one tank and everything from the game is added irl with tank ik picking the tiger2 just to troll people
Tiger 2 is pramo magnet
Sadly that's also true
Its fun tormenting people that doesn't have any on their tank😂
Tank destroyer ik for sure their always packing them
yes tiger 2 bullies if you dont have pramo
ISU bullies Tiger II
what bullies crusader?
Everyone.
Im going to pretend u didn't say that
ow
so alot of tank bully mine like my su-100y, my t1 heavy, my crusader and churchill?
no
oh
I did :3
Dont let me come over there with my smasher
Are your pfp, if your brain is smooth, then how do you know that things can slide off of smooth stuff? 1+ line to brain
Hehe me pen armor with standard shells with 286mm of pen
I see
I will use my m60 then
Hehe me use mle 54
fight time
Maus
IS-7
im running
Gilli
Uh… still IS-7?
Idk only X tanks i have is T22 and M60 xd
Oh lol, I have like 10
Im going to finish the tiger tree so soon i will have E100
I already have E75
I’m crazy
I’m using M-VI-Yoh
I suck with it even when i started sniping with it i died so idk how to use it
With what?
uh why are you sniping in a yoh
He doesn't have Yoh
Any worth of it?
god facehugger
If you really like to sidescrape and love heavies then get it
Oh turns out I have the e75 ts but is good at sidescrape
It has spaced armor which reduce the impact of HE shells
Turtle Mk 1 is probably the worst tier 8 besides the T95E2
59-Patton has more armor in the mini-turret than the Turtle Mk. 1 has on the upper strip
As for TS-5 I can talk about that because it's not in testing. From what I've seen it looks bad
AT 2 has more reliable armour than the Turtle Mk 1
Fr
The Nokia 3310 in blitz
Even if they nerfed that top bar to 220 it would be far more viable
I find it amazing how anyone defended that tank, like bruh. It doesn’t have the mobility to get to reliable positions, so if you pick the wrong spot you lose, but also as soon as you’re spotted you have to relocate at 20 km/h
feels like a bunch of tanks are in balancing hell
It also has poor camo rating
It’s only redeeming feature is how cute it is
The gun is good but it’s in such a bad chassis that it drags the guns effectiveness down as well
I understand the lower plate nerf, make it a bigger weak spot for lower pen tanks to pick at, the top bar nerf was not needed
FT AC ._.
That... is not cute
Well it can do this and waddle
which tanks do you think look cute in your own opinion
Ayo lemme just put a wall on this WW1 tank chassis
UC-2Pdr
I think the turtle Mk 1 looks chubby, I think it’s kinda cute
The UC can sit in water to where it's be filled with it until the hull wall is passed, then it starts drowning
UC-2Pdr has cute wheels
Surely the T18 is cute for you then
T18 is ugly
For them, since they think the chub build like Turtle is cute
I also think Turtle is ugly
Yeah I thought the t18 is kinda cute, the chub look
AT-1 kinda givin me tick vibes
It looks like a CV/33 which is adorable
There's Cruiser I, the tier 2 KV-5 with its two little baby guns
That’s an ugly tank
No that's just a Mini T-28 Mod 1940
D1, little Arnold.
Pz. II J with its solid little build
Medium 2 is so tall it’s scary... Lady Dimitrasqe
Medium II, T2 Medium but with lots of chub
I love the 2 tone camo’s
It's also extremely tall on its tracks
The mad games and Mötley tarp are the two I think of
Woo yeah just got KV-5
Noice
How about AMX 38 with its cone head?
Looks bad
Well at least it's fit to crawl up Faust's missile base
T2 Light's turret position hurts my existence
It might actually look cooler if it was backed up
It's fine to me
The Souma S.35 looks so funny, tall and skinny
Such a slow tank for a medium
It's actually a heavy, a post-5.5 heavy
They just classified it incorrectly, and then proceeded to make the armor irrelevant
Well in reality it is a medium, at least in World of Tanks PC
Pop-Quiz:
Effectively, which tank has the largest "cupola"?
30b?
Naw
M4 54? Stock ARL 44?
Nope nope
T95E6?
M3 Lee
huh
xP
this is a certified td moment
Uncertified TD 😢
BDR and Panzer 35t
BDR G1 B hecken pill with a turret
AMX ELC bis and E 25
S35 CA is such a gimmicky TD
There's a curse on the M-V-Yoh,
no I'm not talking about it's looks.
Then what
i like the small HEable weakspot on the yoh's turret mechanism
I do too, good bait for shots
Has anyone seen if the kpf got a mobility buff?
Its still the same.
so i have this problem... my camo is cursed or something?
You're using a two-part camo, that's normal
no its feather camo and galaxy camo. both differently selected
They separate two camos, one for the turret and gun, and one for the hull
As far as I can tell, that's Jupiter
its just weird coz i went into battle with one camo and when the batlle finished i had two on my tank
That’s the Jupiter camo, I have it on my Cenrurion 5/1
sry i see it now
You had a camo set on one map type, like desert, then came out from a different map type, like winter
From india anyone
nope. im from *****
Gib Sav m/43
Look how majestic it be
I want my Sav
Stormartillerivagn m/43 gib wargaming
looks cute
Yes, 105 mm gun
thats bigger than the t1 heavy
Yes, I want this to be a premium (no crates, just with gold or $9.99)
ouch for those non premiums
Blitz needs to bring back the derp tradition
Sad thing is only 36 were built 😢
I mean the tank is in PC, so why not blitz
Blitz got rid of derps for a reason
oh?
Blitz doesn't wanna focus on low tiers
That is where the art of begging comes in
They also removed a lot of low tiers for good
In a alt universe wargaming purges the high tiers
They didn't, they just rid the tier Is...
Looks at t82 and the French one
I hate Japanese SPGs they suck imo
They're not actually SPGs, they're TDs
Same thing, but I won’t stop till the Sav is added
They're really not the same thing, just give this a try
I did, I hate it, #Savforblitz
Sav will be the same thing =)
No Sav is special
It'll be nothing like PC's in Blitz
I don’t care
I will make sure my voice is heard, may RNGesus bless me
Many others tried and failed badly
Use SAu 40, that's the closest thing
All I can offer is a hug
Failure may lead to more failures, but it will lead to success eventually
It really won't.
Unless you adapt like that saying would imply that you do, and give them a huge sum of money to add it, they'd gladly will
Even then that wouldn't be a sure-shot
I don’t believe in failure, I will not give wargaming money to add my dream tank, I’ll continue till I succeed
looks at the Strv 103 pile of broken dreams
Have fun continuing, just ask for Strv 103, that's a shot to get that in the line, and more eye-grabbing
Devs already said no Strv 103 as those mechanics aren’t compatible with blitz
The Sav has no special mechanics, therefore it can get in game
Except Strv 103 is a largely demanded tank that even they had to address it won’t come so why would they care for a small TD
It'll be a loooong time before they need another tier 4 for their battle pass
Heck they'll probably just cycle through them all again, making it indefinite
I’ll make sure my voice is heard, I won’t stop till wargaming gets their shit together and actually listens to the community
As far as I know, you're the only one
You'll have to wait before they nerf the Smannihilasher duo before you can ask for anything else the community might even care enough about
……… -_-
This is probably as effective as me asking for MS-1 back :/
Also ez hammer Erisu
No racial slurs reeeeeeee
Don't worry, the mods'll get to it
This mindset is frightening
It sounds a lot like the "stupidity is doing the same thing twice and expecting two different results" saying lol
That’s the definition of “insanity”
Doing the same thing expecting different outcomes
me rolling a dice and turning insane because it doesn’t yield the same results
when you realize you were always insane and are just proving it by blaming the dice
I like lux 2.0. The update brought some nice gifs, hope they don’t get powercrept over time.
In four years you’ll look back in nostalgia when the completely unnecessary feature of spamming and mass-pinging is introduced just to get some “content” out there
Well we already knew that the essays serve that purpose now.
Got me there XD
Finally
mk6 worth it?. i dont play alot tier 10
its a good tank
Well if you don’t play tier ten much, then you aren’t going to play the Mk.6 much are you? If this is the case, it’s probably best if you look to buy a tank in the tiers you frequent more, to get more value for your money
yeah you are right i think imma buy emil viking
Play it for credit grinding
That is your choice, but I think it is overpriced
it might be but if it didnt have the viking skin then i woudnt buy it
I mean, it's not a bad invention at all.
It's way lighter due to the lack of armored hull, way cheaper for this same reason and... I can't see any other good points about it.
imagine the recoil tho
Damn...
do you have free exp for the BL-10? If yes, get ISU, if no, Conway
(NEVER USE FREE EXP TO RESEARCH TANKS)
grind it then, get the ISU
Which one is better, Chieftain Mk 6 or Super Conqueror?
Ik this tank is trash but what equipment should i use for Panther m10
That depends on personal preference, super conq has more armor, chieftain has more mobility
Chief for better gun
Is that like comparing between a Cent 5/1 or a Chimera?
Pretty much
It doesn't make any sense
Chieftain only has turret armour
SC has some hullarmour
Chimera has none
Chieftain doesn’t really have turret armor
._.
It's a tough pen for a lot of prammo...
Maybe I’ve gotten lucky up to this point but I’ve never had a problem going through, as well as it having an ez pen hatch
I still prefer the super conq because of its armor advantage
Chieftain turret armor isn't reliable its just troll when using it properly
Who the hell play MK 6 as a full hulldown tank and it's just a typical damage farmer, if you're good enough you'll probably want chief mobility and gun and don't want super conqueror trash gun handling
im not sure what a finish td line would even be based on
Shit, most Finnish tanks were captured ._.
Well that’s depressing
find some actual Finnish TDs
Cant every Finnish tank was captured
Yeah but before they were captured what were they?
Oh wait I see they are just refurbished tanks from other countries. I was thinking wait a minute did the finish even make tanks
Vk 90, cheiftain or super conq?
im rlly conflicted because the chieftain is in the shop rn and i dont wanna regret it
Conqueror
depends on what you want, chieftain has the best gun and best mobility (out of the 3)
Chieftain and super conq are both meh
E6 are better than both
isnt e6 just an e5 with slightly better mobility and worse everything else
The E6 is not better than the super conq or Cheiftain
E6 turret seams are weak in that regard
Maybe next year or this year end auction
I know chieftain was in the store in july last year so its a pretty good gauge that its come out around this time
Chieftain and super conq are just worse e5s with no saving factors.
Chieftain has trash armor, mobility and a easy pen cupola. The only thing that is good is playing hulldown, but you can’t even do that against tanks like e5s is4s krans bc the pen is horrendous. So you try playing against meds but it’s slow and big, and meds have an even easier time shooting your cupola.
E6 solves all the problems of a chieftain with its 374 heat pen with Cali, an actual troll cupola that’s hard to pen and even harder to hit because of your mobility
And super conq is a bigger e5 with 10 gun dep, but worse in everything else
but there is one saving grace:
damm the T95E6 looks HORRENDOUS
True, chieftain and super conq look pretty good esp with legendary camo
the hull be fine
the turret is some otherworldly ABOMINATION
E6 is huge and doesbt have a laser gun
Also super conq takes the e5 armor and takes away most of the weakspots and it adds hesh
E5 is better but still
S.Conq counters mostly HE spam lol
E6 gun is the same as e5 and its smaller than chieftain and super conq
So if i was to want a tier x heavy premium/collector that makes credits
E6 or vk 90
whats a good option? I know the amx 54 will be in the shop at some point
ahh aght cool ill skip the chieftain ig
m4 54 will definitely be in crates
if you want a more aesthetic E6, chieftain
What sort of player should buy:
- chieftain mk 6
- Super conqueror
- T95E6
Medium or heavy or tank destroyer player?
Cheiftain and E6 are more of meds than heavies, the Super conq is more of your traditional hull-down heavy
No
Obv if you gonna buy a heavy you should be a heavy player, but all players should be able to play heavies cuz that’s the easiest class next to tds
Chieftain can’t rlly play against meds, it’s too slow, big and cupola too easy for med guns
They're both heavies but they have good mobility, that makes them faster heavies not mediums also the chief is one of the best tier 10s in the game easy. Buy it if you are thinking about it
Do you think it's dumb to prefer super conqueror than chieftain Mk 6?
Not at all
Not really, it has better armour but a much worse gun
Or prefer the chieftain Mk 6 over the super conqueror?
It all comes down to what you like more
Just wanna think which one is more noob friendly because only have 18 000 gold
I prefer the mk6 as it has much better gun handling, DPM, mobility ect
The super conq is more your traditional heavy. The Cheiftain is more of a med bullier
Super conq is most nub friendly out of the 3
Chief isn't exactly noob freindly, it's like a premium e5 with slightly better stats all round, S. Conq has very good armour but the gun is pretty crap for a tier 10 heavy with 400 alpha
Pantouflee said that Super Conqueror is coming to shop this month
Then Chieftain Mk 6 is already in shop
AMX M4 54 is in crates no doubt
From Pantouflee's discord channel:
Chieftain is a worse e5, it isn’t noob friendly because it’s so mediocre
It's a better e5, better dpm, gun, mobility and armour
I agree
It has worse armor
It has worse hull armour on a flat but that's all that the e5 has over it
Is it just me or I pen Chieftain Mk 6 turret quite easily?
E5 has better hull and turret armor in almost every scenario
Hey you guys play on eu?
Turret looks a bit like cracked glass
Yes
HEable cupola
Shaking my head
look at it hulled down plane, also please could you dm me pantoufle's discord link?
You can’t be serious
https://tank-compare.blitzstars.com Compare them yourself
Compare World of Tanks: Blitz tanks. WOTB tank compare including equipment and provisions.
Load up the Prammo
Looks like the turret only works when hulldown and no enemy tank destroyers are shooting at it, and enemies are not aiming for cupola
You can also pen the cupola with HE
You can pen e3 with HE
Nutcracker
That's a lot harder to do and requires RNG
That's a bit unfair considering the Ho-Ri can pen everything in game with it's prammo
Mobility - e5 has much better p2 weight ratio and that’s what matters. Chieftain almost never gets to top speed.
Armor - e5 has better armor in literally everything. Even hulldown chieftain has an easy to hit cupola and heatable gun mantlet.
Gun and dpm are almost the same. Also a huge draw back for the chieftain is it’s terrible pen and apcr standard ammo. So you have to use calibrated and that just lowers your dpm whilst still having worse pen than the e5. With cali chieftain only has 100 more dpm than e5.
You’re also forgetting that e5 has the special consumables. Literally the only thing that chieftain has over e5 is cheap hesh and gun dep. But you can’t even hulldown in it against heavies bc weak pen and turret
Chieftain armour overall isn’t a strong point.
Sure, you can pull off bounces when you’re on a ridgeline or hulldown utilising the turret, but it isn’t entirely reliable. You have the cupola (which people can also pen with HE) and the armour around the gun can also be shot through.
Hull is pretty worthless, you can pull off the occasional bounce from the upper hull. Side can be overmatched, and you can pen HE through the side by shooting through the engine deck.
I have only ran rammer in Chieftain, and I haven’t had much issue overall with penetration. Dispersion allows you to be consistent with weakpoints, and I am not putting myself in frontline positions and trying to fight superheavies head on for example.
I do not think the Chieftain is inherently bad, I think it’s solid, in random battles at least. I find it to be an enjoyable tank there, but it is not something I would take into competitive games.
Yes, the E5 exists, but that tank honestly is overtuned and needs toning down. I do not think we should bash on the Chieftain too much for not being at the ludicrous level the E5 is at.
And for the comment above, yes you can pen the E3 with HE. But that is a very small hatch, small target.
The penetration isn’t really an issue with chief because of the fire rate but it will show its harm often the mk6 also has an extremely weak roof that can be penned and even buttered through frontally through the gun by a CS E5 Mk6 is also inferior in speed because of a lack of speed boost which allows E5 to straight up pass it chief is also shorter and this allows it to use its gun depression to penetrate better in face hugs
i think the Obj. 140 is better than that whacky t62a
More enjoyable, yes. Better? No.
More enjoyable, yes. Better? Yes.
no the MS-1 is more enjoyable
Tell me when you’re averaging more than 2.5k in it
2.5k in?
I dont think we disagree here, however I think the more interesting comparison is with the super conq as they are both balanced similar
Mobility-e5 wins with speed boost and better p2w. Super conq only advantage is much better reverse speed at 16 vs 12 on e5
Armor-super conq has loads of external armor on the front of the tank, including the upper frontal plate, making most of the tank difficult to pen with heat rounds, improved dramatically with the turret weakspot buffs that fixed major issues, e5 is vunerable to high pen heat rounds on both turret and hull, not to mention overmatchable drivewheels
Gun-e5 is more accurate although super conq is much better on move, sconq has hesh but lower apcr pen while e5 has 340 heat pen, sconq has 10 degrees of gd as well
Overall e5 is better but I would rather have sconq for pubs just bc of how good the super conq is frontally armor wise
Super conq is better hulldown but honestly e5 is more versatile. If you want to have a good time hull down then super conq for sure but if you want to be able to adapt to the game more then e5
Just got this
Should I buy the stb or obj268 first? Just researched them both but only have credits for one
stb1
268
268 is the better TD, Stb is the better medium 🙂
I want the tear X in shop
Is the 75 or the 77 on the Churchill VII better?
WG needs to add the Shell Ejection System to some of the Russian and French tanks.
You just found out? Its also on the 2020
That's the only reason I bought it, then I later sought to prove it wasn't bad
Whats up with the 2020 idk if my skills gone to trash or what lately i get no bounces now when i get shot at
You gotta position correctly, hulldown or just hide LFP
Are M41 Good?
Yup, M41 is good
T49 is just for memeing with the 152mm
T92E1 and Sheridan are pretty good tanks when played correctly
What’s this based on?
Seeing the numbers on the X and Y-axis, I’d say it’s comparing every tier 10’s average win rate to the number of games played in it over an undetermined timeframe
The fact that the 183 is in the lower-right pains me a lot since I want to have fun with it, but everyone always tunnels the 183 in the room
Don't get how E5 is in the weak half
Yea I’m wondering where he’s getting the data from. First place I checked was blitzstars tank compare and that’s not it.
@sacred trail That’s kind of understandable given the reputation the 183 has for ruining the fun for others. No one wants to be on the receiving end of 1300, and the tank being objectively underperforming makes it easier for people to just tunnel and kill.
It’s only famous for the alpha and sinks basically everywhere else. How does one actually play it right?
Pretty much an ambush tank. You need to be close enough to be able to actually hit things, but you also don’t want to be too close and unable to disengage and reload safely.
Basically, if you’re not camping you’re headed in the right direction.
I tend to snipe, my accuracy serves me well, gotta be patient
I often secondline though
M60 or M48 better?
So either try to camp them out or follow the nearest heavy?
M60, credits :3
M60 has a better gun, trading that for a bit of camo and dispersion on turret rotation
@sacred trail avoid enemy heavies, which your heavies are probably heading towards
So, follow the lights? Easily penetrable with AP/HE in most cases, but also capable of circling me dizzy.
That always seems to happen when I cross a BatChat the wrong way
Keep your distance from literally every enemy, your reload should tell you that
So how far back should I trail everyone else? Should I even try trailing from way behind, or should I just camp?
Maybe not so much as trailing, but getting into a position that lets you fire at anyone they'd be likely to spot at
Mostly stereotypical TD camp positions
Flat field maps like Falls Creek make it possible, while city maps like New Bay and Himmelsdorf make it impossible to snipe because the place is crowded. Hilly maps like the top of Middleberg and point C in Port Bay is a bit of a Catch-22 since you either land a snapshot on who you aim at, or you miss and get punished. And even if you do hit, it’s not a guarantee that a 183 shot is gonna penetrate unless it’s splashing HE
I go medium side on Himmelsdorf, and for New Bay, I also snipe for mediums
What about Port Bay? Everyone pushes the hills on C when I can’t maneuver, more or less snapshot, with the 183 with constant hills
I sit in a special spot on Port Bay, but it's only good on South side, it's where it almost goes into the little section secluded by small hills, but can hit targets in the corner, as well as move out to shoot anyone near C
So drive into the deep corner in the hills opposite the river from C and camp there?
So camp out from where that green triangle is? Does it work for either spawn?
No, the North spawn isn't as accommodating, but you can expect to sit on the bridge's roadway because North's heavies tend to be more able to take C
So from the north spawn, stay on the bridge, and use that triangle position from south spawn?
Yeah, unless on North your heavies don't push, and take position, also don't be there and hug the hill more if the allied mediums don't hold hill
Which hill? The one on the riverbank? That’s where I normally end up going with both the 183 and the Grille
The one below the bridge road, the corner that heavies turn
Can the 45 degree turret traverse on the 183 still hug around the bridge foundation and quickly withdraw after shooting?
Not sure, I doubt it'll be good to shoot most positions around the medium corner
Is obj704 a good tank?
Yes
Is adrenaline a good consumable for it?
This isn't actually a very useful position at all, you get maybe one shot on a med crossing (who's most likely long gone before you get time to aim but it's possible if they are slow and you are lucky) and then you are stuck just "covering" the meds who are hulldown and at long range. You can't shoot people at C without exposing hugely because of the dips in the ground, and you definitely can't cover any push through C. Too many times I've seen 2-3 TDs camp there while the reds can easily push up and crossfire the green heavies then move on to finish the rest with more tanks and hp. Also, if your meds do win the corner you are useless and have to reposition again. You might be able to get a couple shots in but there are no reliable useful shots available at all until your team is dead or dying.
Cuz i hate burning money for nothing
Why would you get 704 when 140 exists
Adrenaline is good for it but you won't need it that much
You will most of the time play second line or camp
Save adrenaline for emergencies like some meds rushing you
Don't camp in the 704... Pls...
I mean
The armor is good
But they will play aggressively when they learn the tank lol
That’s highly doubtful
I already learned that
Is the tankenstein worth 3500 gold ?
I sometimes do that when i am low tier
Hi WG . Can we have an own reload button for autoloader tanks on Mobile ? I dont wanna mistakenly reload when i want to change shells on Shells bar . its got me lost dmg sometime and it so frustrated at the same time . PC player will never have this issue like Touch player . Pls think about this WG
You can enlarge the ammo-bar to reduce the chances of you tapping the wrong shell
still made that mistake sometime . its rare to made that mistake but still . its better to have an own button for it . make it optional so we can have a new style and old style reload .
@covert kite don't ping the Wargaming staff for that
what do you think is the best medium tank line to grind?
140 or leo!
STB or T-62A
Arguably a good first T10 med is the T-62A, but I went with the Prog 65 and 121 first XD
The E 50M line is easy, but E 50 M struggles a bit. STB-1 is indisputably the best tier 10 med right now
I personally find the STB-1 a little boring, but it is a great tank.
E 50 M I find fun, E 50 I did not enjoy as much though
I’d argue in favour of the 140 as a tank for the more aggressive user, mostly because the hull armour is actually useable and it has outstanding gun handling on the move, which makes it an outstanding flanker, but the 62A is better for the average player tbh
and what do you think about the fv4202?
You need a lot of game knowledge to get it to work, and even then it’s really an average tank
It’s good, but the issue with it is that it doesn’t have proper prammo - if you want a high alpha T10 med, the 121’s a better bet
It's good but you need to be very experienced to use it to the best of it's ability
FV4202 is a tank that rewards a seasoned player
hmm okay
The 140, you mean? Yeah, it’s certainly more of a uni tank
It gets a lot of hate but as said above, you need to be pretty experienced.
The 4202 is such a fun tank to drive around in random battles once you nail it down
Tbh go for the E 50M for a first T10 med, the armour makes it a more reliable choice - arguably the STB is better, but the grind is horrific
I think the only problematic tank in the E50Ms grind is the E50
There’s a heat gun
Or rather, the E 50 grind… which is why I went with the 140 for the obligatory brawling med instead
The grind to the STB-1 I would definitely not recommend for a new player.
Japanese mediums you really need some experience in the game before you try to go through them in my opinion
Yes, but if you’re using the HEAT gun, you might as well go for a Leo 1 or something
what is actually the main thing a medium tank needs to have?
They are supposed to be a class about balance in most areas so that's not a question easily answered
Mobility, good gun, turret armour - that’s the magic formula for Blitz
They need to have adaptability
But the 140 is pretty much garbage when compared to the T62A or Leo which it mostly competes with due to its bad armor, good gun and good mobility
stb seems like a fun tank :)
The grind is not fun
no the grind is fine except for the sta
Tru
The grind isn't that bad, the hardest parts are stock Chi-Ri and stock Type 61
what makes the grind so terrible?
The 140 imo is a Leo with less mobility and firepower in exchange for trollish hull and turret armour, and tbh it’s an excellent tank for flanking and side-hugging heavies
Jap tanks have zero effective armour until the STB, especially the Chi series and Type 61
The tier 8 tank mostly
Japanese meds aren’t straightforward to play getting to STB, which is partly why they get hated and you see many people fail in them.
The issue is that the Jap meds change so much between tiers - the Chi-Ri and STA have very different playstyles, for example
They’re just not a very cohesive med line, unlike say the Russian meds and the E-50M line - they’re more refined in the sense that they all share certain characteristics that mean that you know what to expect for the T10
@storm robin please use the full nation name when referring to the vehicles, Jap is a slur used in the states
Alrighty then, but in any case you get what I mean - the Japanese tbh have a better TD line for newer players
I mean, I’m kind of biased in that I have the 121, 62A and the 140, but those grinds were honestly easier - the only big hurdle is the 120, imo
It’s to easy to get mastery with the new tank
It always happens with new tanks, once there's enough data to get a rolling average of max xp it will even out (and probably end up it being higher than most tanks because they seem to have a high skill cap)
ok . will my feedback noticed ?
probably not
It could, they do view all the channels but it's more likely to be seen in a channel like #836286337182072852
Am I the only one that thinks the magnification on binocular mode should be manual?
you can change that in settings
How? I've never seen it in settings.
I'm 99% sure there's a setting for it in the controls section

it's only on pc iirc

Hello ,
MV-I-Yoh or T57 heavy ?
Depends
M-VI-Yoh for the insane clip on the 120mm
T57 for damage farming
If you wanna run the 105mm on the Yoh, just get the T57
maybe add some kind of tier vi bt 42
as european premium
ik bad idea, and its hard to write here without getting negative responses
Unfortunately wg has already said no
On what tank is BLITZ9000 based on? It does not look like Hellcat, nor T20 or Pershing family.. Is it a unique tank? Or did i miss something?
blitz 9000?
It’s based on the Hellcat
So they made Hellcat into medium tank, buffed up it's armor and did sime nice reskinning. This might be the first battlepass tank since Icebreaker worth going for
what? it looks terrible and the tank itself is going to be a good amount worse than the hellcat
nerf death star
death star already sucks
What would you need about it? It’s already under powered
@violet timber underpowered? when hitting me for 1.3k and shooting perfectly accurate? yep underpowered
Perfect accuracy? Mate, this things camo rating is trash, if you get hit, it is your fault
accurate? wdym
i mean tbf accuracy has nothing to do with camo rating
but it does have pretty bad accuracy
i am playing with progetto and it always hits ne
that 183mm gun doesnt have great accuracy
Still your fault
just bounce the shell off of your troll ufp 😌
its like kv2 accuracy
terrible and misses most of the time?
So bad?
nevermind maybe it was just his rng xD
183 has a fat hull with 0 armor and 0 camo
0 armor, 0 camo, 0 accuracy, only average mobility
yeah it literally only has pen and alpha going for it
183 saw me for like half a second when i was 60km speed and he shooted me with he while driving progetto (bad accuracy)
ever heard of "luck"
rng just said yes for him
aight guys what do i need to tell my friend. i bought the viking today and have 25 battles in it now and we did a 1v1. he played tiger 2 btw and we did that 3 times or so and i won all the battles and now he is angry and is telling me that the tanks has broken armor,that the tank is op and needs a nerf (its a premium so it cant be nerfed)
The Viking should not be losing a 1v1 vs a Tiger 2 lol. Tell your friend to git gud
his name is tomato he is in this group
the 140 is either awful or i am awful at playing it
It isn't awful at all
either RNG or your own bad positioning
Staying in scope mode might help determine if you're in a bad position or not, you can see enemy's gun, that means you're exposed. Also, p46 has literally no armor, so its not all that hard.
but even with the 105mm isnt the yoh quite different because of the stronger armour profile and thinner turret
It is rather team reliant, could just sit within the secluded area next to it
Legendary camo for tier 1 when?
Ha Go has one
It does? Got a photo?
ye one sec
also it’s one of the rarest camos in the game iirc
Guess that explains why I didn’t know about it... thx for showing 🙂. How do u get it?
Is it still possible to get it for the Ha-Go now for gold, or was it a certificate thing?
GuP event, but apparently it’s not been sold for ages @sacred trail @fleet oriole
Oof
It also helps that I have NO recollection of how I got the camo, according to a clan mate who desperately wants the camo, it was like £1
Dang, that sucks. If they do something like that for Blitz again, they should give the KV-2 or the Maus something like that since they both stuck out
I mean skin mods could solve that lol @sacred trail
Mobile?
Yes.. but where’s the clout?
android yes, apple oof
BLTZ9000 is kinda balanced in that it has spaced armor in front but has very low DPM and lower pen than Hellcat
It also has an indented oscillating turret
Well, and a completely broken turret rotation according to models 😂
The turret traverse is pretty crap actually
Second worst in class. This is such a weird tank.
Yea looks like it's going to be slow outgunned but armored medium. Most interesting to me is that they changed it's class from TD to medium.. while Hellcat might still be a better medium lol
hey, i completely forgot the art channel had a 5 hour cooldown! how do yall like my drawing of the gargoyle? i couldnt find any good images of it 😔
Mmm digital art 🤤
Hhh im pretty bad at it 🥲
When people do it right, it looks so cool hh
It’s better than my traditional drawings, effort isn’t exactly my forte 😂
Besides, I draw on the spot, Wite-Out is my only… editing tool
hhh dam- sounds painful 😫
Not too much, I’m not too caring about the cursed tanks I draw, cuz people love cursed tanks 😅
Point made…
Haha we got a funni man ova here
Funni man with da big necc
big neck charlie ova here
And that’s just one I was willing to draw them
It is fantastic and my day has been made better by witnessing it
😂 Thanks I guess
Why did they rework the original equipment system?
Imgine if the 30 er could mount the top turret and 105 mm gun just like in pc as an option ,
That would be really cool
Do rating battles affect our regular stats or just the rating stats?
so somebody told me that leoPTA stock is awful, so i would like to ask
what should i research first?
I think many will say the gun, but for me I researched engine first to do some spotting and running and flanking @real wave
getting the gun first before everything else will just absolutely destroy your gun accuracy
is Chieftain worth it for somebody who is used to using the E5 and T57?
It's a tier 10 credit grinder. It's not really anything like either of those tanks.
Why not add now smoke granades instead off on/off tank with gamo.
because device limitations
what do you think of emil 1?
Best tank desogn of 2021
nice
Amazing work man
rhm is not as bad as i thought - 2 shots for 600 dmg, 2 HE shots both for 1k dmg and ammoracked the obj 252U for 1.2k dmg. 4.4k dmg in total
It's a great tank.
I would say the highlight of the Swedish tree.
What about compared to E6, is it worth getting if you already have E6?
How is the VK 30P?
Which gun to choose, 88mm or 75mm?
Always the 8.8 on it
It's unique to the vehicle and significantly better
I used to pick the stock turret for better mobility, making it a mix of medium and light tank. The problem is, the tank is huge with little armor, so it couldn't transition to a lighter profile without changes on the size. Now I just use the top turret with 8.8
only slightly worse mobility, do you use the quick view stats or something
Why did you gold the tank and not the crew or gun
oh no...
horrible financial choices much
gl grinding the 35k exp left needed to get the 150mm with 75% crew and the 128mm
With the stock turret it has 10 depression, 3.5 more traverse speed and 6 more turret traverse speed. The size is the only thing that keeps the VK3001P from having a medium and light mode.
wow 6° faster wow
I actually tried it out and the differences are noticable but still very much unique, it does work because the 30.01 P can reach it's too speed easier and can fire over hills more
So there are legitimate and not so bad trade off for what you get
:V
Stonks :/
Then the question becomes, why not use the VK 30 1 D or the VK 28, since their specialty is having more mobility, and sloped armor.
That’s what people are saying, without the 88 it’s pointless
It can use the 8.8 with the stock turret
But why
Dunno why but I might try it, the turret is still about as strong minus the cupola but the gun can depress further

ehh 183 sucks
your fault if you get shot by one
it has bad dispersion and is on a big unarmored hull with meh mobility and terrible camo
Or you just don't peek if you know there's a 183 ezpz
Protip if you sidescrape to shoot 183 can't full pen with hesh so you take less damage
the highest i believe
at t10? yeah prob
Hey at least it has better dispersion than a kv2
Algum Brasileiro?kkkkk
when people said viking was overpriced i assumed it was bad but i got it yesterday and its really good. and fun to play too
It's good but it's expensive considering the last time the progetto and ax (both better tanks) came into the store they were (iirc) 15k gold for both with all equip and the emil 1 is free and is essentially the same as the 1951
1 week to play t7 Yoh. This tank is a worse copy of t29. At least it should have the same gun depression of 10. Buff seroulsly needed.
it's not like T29 is one of the best tanks at the tier or anything
that's what i excatly said. It's a worse t29. Gun depression buff could be a way to improve this scrap tank.
oh no my new tank isn't OP pls buff
which of your tanks ?
;-;
T7 yoh is faster than the T29 and can sidescrape much better, also better hull and better reverse
Better hull ! You are joking. Look the stats of t29 and it's better.
Look at the angle, T29 has a much flatter hull
The yoh has a better hull
How is yoh worse than t29 it’s literally a 105 autoloader at tier 7
These tanks are a giant mind ****
How to skorpion g stinger
grille at tier 8 with a fully rotational turret.
Pretend that it is a medium tank, and avoid getting shot at as you make aggressive plays
Tried that it didn't work. I've tried sniping but every time my teammates split up and do their own thing.
no don't snipe, play behind your team like stay close but just behind enough that you take a shot and then retreat into safety.
sniping might work but not always.
Sniping is rarely actually useful. Use the turret and mobility to hunt down targets.
If you can't figure it out, I highly recommend getting a bit more experience in the game. The skorp is definitely not an easy tank to play
I'm going to try and use it like my t1-heavy/hunter. Where I just chase down anything that shoots me
Would that work
No you would get eaten alive by HE
Man I mean I might as well sell it and use the gold for changing my name to something normal
I mean i suck at the game.
I play heavys more than anything
Oh please don't.
It is a great tank.
And it sells for credits.
Just learn the game more and the tank will be better for you.
Are you very new to the game?
I even have a su-100 that I use as a hunter too
No I'm not very new, my usual play style for World of Tanks is the Japanese heavy tanks and become a wall with lights and mediums behind and then we Swarm
I might wanna start on the Japanese heavys again I'm really good with them
Try using other classes
Heavies are easy to play and don't sharpen your skills as much.
Also there is no Japanese heavies in blitz
Excuse me, there's no what in blitz for the japanese
There is no japanese heavies in blitz
Only meds and TDs
But why
They're too large, and they'd honestly be unbalanced
Don't think them being too large is actually the reason.
I mean the maus was scaled down so yeah.
The guns are also a problem, O-I would be cracked if it kept stats, ofc you can change them, but the O-I would lose specialty other than being a meme
That i do agree with.
But the too big excuse was likely just to shut people or something.
I'd love for O-I to come to Blitz, even if it was like 15+ bucks as a premium, won't happen :/
Good turret armor no hull armor
the spaced armor plates on the turret aren't cosmetic.
You can check that sort of thing on Blitzhangar
76mm spaced armor (what)
Is that nominal?
At least they patched E75 TS's, which was like 127mm on one side and like 183mm on the other
💀 💀
76mm base plate yes
Lol
oh yeah that bs, thicker than maus' spaced
E75 TS
Lupus is a blast to play
In which tank?
Yeah the Lupus has an insanely angled armor profile, with 12 degrees of godly gun depression
Gun depression makes it easier to work irregular terrain and lets you hulldown
The ridiculous amount of gd lets you bully by basically showing only your gun and the tiniest bit of the top of your turret, which is an auto-ricochet
Just keep your angles to them, your sides are pretty troll and you have a good gun
Anyone knows what the names of these two are?
first one looks like stock panther 1
other one is panther 8.8 cm i think?
they could be bret panther or the other t7 prem one
Could be a VK M
It is not
I am guessing the second one is Bretagne panther
thanks, I'll check em out in blitz hangar
First one can also be pudel
idk why they made so many panthers ig
Those must be new or pre-nerf, cuz I can't find em
Actually, the E-75TS's side plates aren't that thick in actuality, but the hitskin thinks they are
Also they're meganerfed now, but still annoying to deal with since it's so spaced
It's funny to think an E75 TS was literally more effective sideways than frontally, talk about "overangling" when sidescraping
No, they were never that strong in reality to start with. The thing is, blitzhangar pulls its armor models from the client; and the client's armor models are what's used to display the red hitskins.
However, for some reason the client thinks the E-75TS's sideskirts are 150mm thick, but the server actually says that they're like 30mm thick or something iirc, which is how it will be treated if you shoot it
Welp, 15mm is fine, it's surprisingly weak
Besides, the drive wheel exists
Super Conq or MK6???
Super Conqueror for safety, Chieftain Mk. 6 for skill ceiling
Why do some say playing Ho Ri needs skill and how should it be played?
Does anyone here owned a Kpfpz or MBT-70?
Skill in positioning
I have the Kpfpz
Any review about the tank?
KpfPz is nice, a bit sad on the gun depression imo. Speed is 7/10, Gun is great, armor is eh
You have good mobility and a nice gun, but the reload is a bit long. The front of your turret is your only armor, and it's not reliable, so you have to play a peek-a-boom style with it. Shoot in a nice 560 alpha round and then use your mobility to reposition during the reload
How long is the reload time?
14.64 with rammer, 15.74 without. This is assuming you have both foods
Another thing is that you have highest alpha in class
I can work with that kind of reload time. I'm used to KV-1S's 18.4 reload time with Gun Rammer installed.
It's very workable, just don't show your hull and it's pretty nice
I suffered so much with M-VII-Yoh than my T-29 LOL.
Anyways, thanks for your input
Always happy to help
I think VK 45.02 B is still a good choice
It’s a very nice tank
Blame armor.
VK 100.01 P is more impactful than VK 45.02 A, and VK B is kinda just a sidescraper
Can't compare the two because one is a tier higher. The 4502B is a very nice tank with bad mobility, but very good armor and a decent gun
I know Maus line is good on paper except for the slow speed
Be warned kpz is laughably mediocre once you get used to it I’ve had it for 2 years and sold it since 2020 to super late 19 your alpha barely rolls for 600 most of the time in the 500 area and you have below average pen meaning you can’t pen even an e100s turret cheeks without struggling and a e75 lower plate with standard the HE also doesn’t work properly so you’ll be disappointed trying to hit TDs and lights with it the speed of kpz is the only redeeming factor as it has almost no gun depression even though it’s designed for it which makes it suffer more and the turret is butter to tier 10s
The 45.02 B is the VK72.01K line
Yeah. I'm not really that biased when it comes to same tier tanks and I compare them like I have both JgPz IV and Nashorn for some comparison but I suffered more on Nashorn than I did with JgPz IV.
That makes sense as JgPz IV is just a better tank in general
I used to have both KV-2 and KV-1S but I sold my KV-2 because I suffered the most than with my KV-1S. Besides, I can go both ways to IS and KV-3 without playing KV-2. Like I did also with Panther where I skip the Tiger I and get Tiger II instead. I like Tiger P but it is crawling than running.
Must've broken your period and comma keys 😅
Really threw me off
I just keep the KV-2 because of the gun. It's really a tank I play when I'm feeling sad
Mine's the Lowe, ol' reliable
Lowe is still my favorite tank in the game, and my most played
Same
I feel a bit of buyer's remorse because I bought the KV-5 last week with 5,500 gold coins which I thought this is a sweet deal until Chrysler K showed up and I'm like WTH. I still give some love to KV-5 like I did to Pz. T-25.
I also don't want to spend $9 for 6500 gold coins
I bought KV-5 cuz why not
KV-5 just looks like a sad crappier KV-4
I can still get to shoot VK 100.01 P at the turret and the lower half of the hull so it is still good. Just get good with the side-scraping
I bought it for the meme
I'm still aiming for KV-4. I need to work out my KV-1S
Just remember, the S stands for Sport
I thought S stands for "Skorostnoy" means "high speed" or "fast" in because it is a lighter version of KV-1.
Yeah, I just say it stands for sport because it's easier to explain
Also P means tanks are designed by Porsche, and H for Henschel
Yup, K for Krupp
where's Rheinmetall
Rheinmetall is a gun maker, not many tanks aside from the Skorpion and borsig
True
VK is Volkettenfahrzeuge which means "fully-tracked experimental vehicle"
And what does Sd.Kfz. mean again?
I lived with Nashorn for a long time. And did not bad with it
It's not bad, the JgPz IV is just better
Don't bother, just get JagPanther 2
Sonderkraftfahrzeug
To late. I already unlocked Ferdinand
Bruh
Sell it, buy back the JagPanther, and get the JagPanther 2
Special purpose vehicle
Yes ik, wasn't referring to your message lmao
I have no premium. So it’s almost impossible to get credits and I haven’t yet bought it and I already sold Jpanther
You don't have the IS2(1945)?
Oh yisss. I love Jagdpanther
