I love blitz theory
^-^
I may look like a boomer, but to be honest, I kinda miss when World of War ducks was still a thing
Unbalanced as heck, shark fin OP
can they please make ARL V39's cupola bigger and weaker, it's too difficult of a weakspot to hit
xD
As for ARL 44 stock turret, it's kinda too angled
M2 Medium needs at least some gun depression
I think the Ho-Ri needs more pen, I can't go through the e3's gun mantlet
Buff Ho-Ri
I believe one day that this game will be balanced and WG will nerf St Emil 🙏
st emil too OP, they should nerf the mobility
What app is this?
It's called as Armor Inspector
as for the Tortoise, I believe they should nerf its speed to match its namesake
Thx, also wtf
Also remove the gun, since when tortoises carry cannons?
is that the VK tortoise, tor’s, tortoise pta, or tortoise 1
clearly none of them, it's the tortoise maus
they also need to buff the roof armor while nerfing it everywhere else, because that's more realistic to how a tortoise is actually armored
Rename it Blastoise 🙏
they should buff T-100 LT mobility and DPM, also camo. its way too weak and def needs a buff
@versed zinc sorry for not responding earlier, this specific situation involves a premium tank and a tier X vehicle, which is unavailable to those who have not paid money, so if you want to see a situation with a non-tech tree or a tier 10 vehicle, you could buy the deal or ask me for what you want to see
Ohhhh, alright,thanks for telling me! And maybe you could show me the waffentrager auf e100? I can't see it
u mean jg pz e100?
Nope, I meant what I said
cant help u in that case
Damn, alright then ->-"
the only waffentragger auf I know is Wt Auf Pz IV
Ah, maybe I can get pictures? I can't even see the name lmao
sure
Thx
Search for old wot pc pics
Also qb made a Vid not so long ago if you wanna watch this
oh, u mean this abomination? its not in blitz @versed zinc
YES, that, and I kinda like it, it looks cool to me ->-
Wow- rip
HE magnet
mhm
Indeed
Broken tank
if you want to look at tanks for the heck of it, go to tanks.gg. It's for PC so it has more tanks and more detailed models, plus it's completely free
heard someone say using WZ 113 can deal with the 2 or 3 shot M-VI-Yoh, is this a good idea either in regular battle or tournament?
Depends heavily on the situation. In regular battles it's doable, in tournament... good luck.
Hey guys I just found a scam
Free discord?
If it’s not crates, we don’t care
So, I bought the E75 TS a long time ago, so I’m aware that the camo costs 1,500 gold when you click camo in your garage. But in the store it’s 2000 gold more than the no camo version,
The camo version also comes with equipment…
is fv201 deal worth it?
I mean, you can buy that with credits
Then don’t get the camo version… where is the scam here?
Fv201 isnt, the only thing it has is dpm
Dpm, turret armor, and slightly more mobility than the BP
how much would the prog 46 be if it went on sale based on past sales?
It’s like a CAX but a tier lower
Not even close. Hull is complete paper
and the turret has unreliable armour
CAX hull is also rather unreliable
agreed, been able to pen 201 quite easily
basically cax but paper
and such a huge profile, yikes
think of Centurion 1 but in tier 7 with less turret armour
that's FV 201 A45
That works
should that be moved to tier 6
Nah, it’s fine where it is, we have the Tog at tier 6
Uhhhhh very different classes of armor
it seems too modernized to be thrown into tier 6 imo
and then theres the event tanks what am i even saying
or make FV 201 A45 an event tank
I didn’t actually know there was that much of a difference, thanks for letting me know
do you look at armour inspector
But hey, you can use yourself for hull down cover
turret cant be penned, i see this as an absolute win
is that the rear? loads HE and fires at the FV 201
I thought you guys were talking about the centurion AX this whole time lmao
what the heck, prog 46 was on sale for 12k last time?? was there any cheaper price for that thing
nah, talking about tier 7 FV 201 A45 premium tank
It went on sale for 8500 before.
ah, thats a bit more acceptable
it was for free before
yep
funny thing, i joined the game at that time and did not realize just how big of an event it was
When did you join game lol?
i think blitz cup was october or november, somewhere around that time
Dang, you’re really new
yep, but i throw myself into the community
We welcome you with open arms
as frustrating as this game is, i still love it
I'm currently being tortured by playing the su-100m1
Ah, the good only no gun depression
no gun depression and weirdly bad gun handling for the average alpha it has
Are we going to ignore the fact that is is possible for the t-29 to bounce a shell from the E-100 and Maus??? It's rare it would happen but it is possible-
Wow an angle which you'll probably never see in a real game!
It can do it level as well, lemme show, but only with AP
most tanks can bounce an e100 or maus
Aha, m o s t
especially maus, it has the worst pen out of all heavies t10
and garbage accuracy too
Also its a t29, the turret is decent, it can actually bounce , u dont need this weird angle
u're speaking of it like it has paper turret
This gives me satisfaction 😌
Just go hulldown smh
ok lol
yes because everyone knows t29 turret is strong even in a tier 10 match
Well I didn't 😎
new player?
Use Ho-Ri
I don't have it, and I never will because my game crashed a month ago and it won't let me connect to the sever 😎
so.. you played the game last time 1 month ago?
Yep, never got to play boss mode, don't know what it's like
imagine not being able to fix this simple issue
:/
-
I can no longer update the game, no matter what I do
-
It's not my fault >:/
-
Even if I reinstall the game It will not allow me to connect to the sever
-
Am sad, boss mode looks so fun :')
- Support exists
Tried
- your points make no sense, how can you "no longer update the game" if you reinstalled it? obviously having the latest version now?
ever tried to make sure your login data was correct? right server selected? use another device? another wifi?
its just basic and logic problem solving here ngl
-
Yes
-
It won't let me select
-
I don't have one
-
Yes
@versed zinc whats your device rn
Amazon
excuse me
Lmao, say it, I've gone through 4 updates on it
Amazon is not a device
sigh Amazon Fire hd tablet, happy?
cant you download the game on ur phone
Yes but as I said, the game won't allow me to select a sever, at first I thought it was a bug but now I think it's more than a bug
Ok but i said try on another device, try to download it on ur phone, amazon tablets arent even meant to game on them and amazon store can be troublesome, even the best ones have poor specs for heavy games anyway
I already said, i do not have another device, also the tablet was running the game perfectly fine, I was even able to play it on HD graphics without any problem
Atf, u dont have a phone?
Unless he got the T-100 lt update 2-3 weeks ago this might be a device/hardware issue
ofc, its a fire tablet, 2/3 gb ram
No, if I did we would not be having this conversation
how can u not have a smartphone in 2022
cuz I'm broke :/ duh
😩
Maybe I can get one in the next 20 years 😂
well wotb gonna be rocking in 2042
It's never gonna die, I probably have the next 100 years lmfao
well if u're a turtle probably yes
i checked tanks.gg on the type 5 heavy, and for blitz standard for tier X armor.
it's bad
i mean, bad tanks doesn't always equal not fun. but it's blitz, for a derp gun with no armor and slow. i don't think it's any fun
Lmao, what if I am 😂
they can change stats when they bring tanks from wot to wotb
actually, thats what they always do, tanks change a lot when they get brought in wotb
there is still no point for it to be on blitz
There is no point for a lot of things, there is no point to exist for any game..
Type 5 Heavy is busted for Blitz, armor + derp is just a bad idea. At least they’re not adding it
I'm sad about how they butchered the 268 4
I’m not, but I did think it was funny that everyone thought the cupola didn’t exist
Not in terms of power level, but they ruined the playstyle that it's supposed to have imo
Tbf it’s too heavily armored to be that fast
But then again IS-7 exists
I feel like every change they made compared to the PC version makes it less fun for both the player and the person fighting it
Blitz is a vastly different game to balance around
- more braindead armor (stronger front but the sides are pennable as soon as you angle the slightest bit, rear no longer HE-able)
- slower
- higher alpha, worse pen
love seeing broken as hell tanks in pc getting nerfed to dogwater here
I feel like it doesn't matter whether it's PC or blitz, those qualities are less fun for both games
Less fun, more balanced. Oh well.
I think I'd rather play and fight against the PC version in blitz with the exact same stats 🤷♂️
I'd rather keep the game balanced
I don't think either version is balanced very well though so that's not even part of the discussion really
I think they should've kept the mobility and most of the gun stats the same, but with 560 alpha (since that's the blitz equivalent) and nerfed the frontal armor by 10-20mm
But instead they turned a potentially novel playstyle tank into a boring one, that's not necessarily even more balanced
Dang they didn't turn it into another 263
What a shame
263 > e3 and jageroo hybrid
And it's kinda supposed to be like the 263, that's why it replaced it at tier 10 and succeeds the 263 in PC lol
🤷♂️
Casually chooses less alpha and no reactive armor over 690 alpha
Does it have reactive in blitz?
I love how obnoxiously thick the 71 degree UFP is
Yes, it has reactive
That's stupid lol
I'd take the PC version any day, no thanks
And lose to HEAT more easily? Alright
Wdym
Both the UFP and LFP are susceptible to HEAT, while in Blitz, they remain fine. LFP is actually vulnerable to standard shells, easily
Can't even facehug with that upper plate, it loses to all AP and APCR shells once you put slight GD on it
I'm getting the impression that you're saying the PC version is weak, when you implied earlier that the blitz version is more balanced
I'm confused lol
I'm saying I prefer the balanced version on Blitz over the less balanced version in Blitz
But at least braindead weakspots aren't there in Blitz
I prefer a tank that actually has a proper identity
A hardcase, high alpha TD that actually has much better mobility than a Jg. Pz. E100?
🤷♂️
PC devs clearly wanted to make a TD line with strong armor and mobility but a weaker gun, and they did exactly that, balanced or not
Blitz just does so much weird tweeking to the point where I can't generalize a tank to a few characteristics like with PC ones
They have to do weird tweaking since it's a considerably different game
Getting shot out of nowhere isn't as much of a luxury in Blitz, and 268/4 can manhandle corridors
I can really just generalize this down to the main difference between PC and blitz, better ideas vs better execution
I feel like blitz devs doesn't even have an idea of what kind of tank they want to make most of the time, they just nerf and buff random stats until it seems balanced
Their main focus is making newer tanks hotter to bring in more players and make it interesting.
Unfortunately they haven't been nerfing as much as they need to be in recent updates
Also Money 🤑
True, both departments focus primarily on 💸
Of course I'd like to solidify my premise of balance, but I recently invented the X70, destroying my appearance of credibility in balance 💀
What
Idk about you but I trust the team that made t10 collectors balanced compared to tech trees vs the team that reworked HE 2 times needlessly let alone crew
I couldn't word it any better, I suck 🗿
Well you see, giving 9 degrees of gun depression to a tank that's already a cherry on top is uh
Y e a h . . .
I do big dumb a lot
at least the sides and rear are HE-able
tier 8 concept 1b
so therefore you did a better job than blitz devs, who want to slowly drive HE into obsolescence
You see, I based it on my first ever tank drawing
It's... stupid looking, to put it honestly (the first drawing, I based the X70's stock turret off of it
wait it has a stock turret?
It's so angled that it's broken given the auto-rico against AP and APCR 💀
damn you put a lot of effort into this
I didn't want to fail to honor my first ever... 🤢 tank 🤢🤢
have you tried making stats for your other creations
Yes, I have about 60 concept sheets like this one
Unfortunately you've seen the only tech tree module sheet I've ever created
I'd be glad to show you, at least, maybe anything specific? Tier? Type? I might just have it
I wanna see a TD
I have like, two or three. Here's one of them.
This one's garbage by design.
I love how the frontal armor view looks insanely boxy
It truly is deceptive
also looks pretty german/maus-like despite what appears to be a chinese inspired hull
Here's the only other one
Also truly doomed by design
so a turretless 183 with armor and even more alpha but not so good hesh?
It's standard HE, but caliber magnifies it
Also it's adorably tiny, no gun traverse too =)
Everything's good until it max rolls HE though, anything that isn't a heavy is gone, 2000 HP
if I were to design a tank for the game, I'd make it a maus that's twice the length but with paper-thin armor and can go really fast
TOG II buff then.
and incredibly slow shell velocity, 300 m/s
idk I really like tanks with highly contrasting characteristics lol
If you want, I could make a tank based on tier, type, and some characteristics
as in draw the tank from your imagination based on given parameters?
Y e s
alright
Tier 10 turreted tank destroyer
2 shot autoloader with long intra-clip
American
average-weak armor
idk if that's the amount of vagueness/detail that you wanted
Even this wacky concept works, you can go that far
Of course though, I will balance it the best I can
okay then, I'm gonna add "unusually large size" to the list of characteristics
also can you try making up a brief history for the tank like WG does for their fakes? would be kinda interesting lol
I actually have a vague tank already for it
I haven't done descriptions at all, it'll be a rocky ride
also try making up names for the modules, I'm sure you can do better than WG 😂
Oof, I lack room for module names, but I shall try
That's a WOT PC version >_>
so? still WG lol
idk I watched quackybaby's video and found that kinda funny
how r u so good with geometry
When you've drawn nearly 1900 tanks, it kinda uhh
Happens.
But thank you regardless 🙂
can anybody tell me why the m46 patton has terrible ap and prammo pen
American Medium.
Next question
im suprised the devs didnt add the type61 with experimental extra platings ver in the new upcomin ht loot
Looks like a bigger pz iv h
Bruh that like tank use armor from amateur worker
jsdf were 1 step behind on military techs till like the 90s, cant blame em, besides theres more derpier tonk designs in the world
intense fight
2 vs 3 LOL
I will always hate the tortoise. Most terrible tank I have ever played in the game thus far
I literally chuckled when I saw that Tortoise was getting an armour buff
Probably no, for the same reason of Primo Victoria never will be on Blitz as well;
Sabaton have contracts with WG for WoT, not WoTB
Avre wil make 4005 and fv215 183 bogus
its gonna be in tier 8, maybe 9
They could just call it T123 like wotb
Too modern,
Never coming to blitz
😿
Would you like to face a tank with a turret covered in reactive armor and capable of firing projectiles larger than 183mm?
How’s the Obj. 263 line?
Overall, mediocre at best
m60 needs a new model
Why is that?
Ayo So I have the Jageroo, Leopard 1 and E 50M all researched, which one should I buy first?
Jageroo is funny, I'd go for it
E50M
with the A3 turret?
leo
With ERA
m60 needs PBR and it should be the normal american color with ability to equip camos
as it stands I think it's one of the ugliest tier 10s, and it's not really the tank's fault since I think the PC m60 looks fine
both are ugly
For the most part, yes
basically premium bulldog, get more credits.
but i find it fun
So is a yes?
if you like the bulldog, you get a better version of it. yes it's very much a worthy tank
the bulldog has no place in tier 8, even with the upgraded gun the German one gets
chinese bulldog is faster, better dpm, and way better hp/t
any tips for IS 5 ?
Is no longer in the store the Chinese bulldog
Is the Maus honestly a good tank?
Yes
🙂 👍
which is better?
amx 50b or big mouse ?
big mouse ?
oh 😦 why thou ?
no I was questioning what big mouse was lol
I mean I assume it's just the Maus, but why did you type it like that
ahh🤣 LOL big mouse = maus 😂
😆 😆 😆
Personally, I like the Maus more
Which is better? Well, they are two very different tanks, despite both being under the heavy class, so I’m not really gonna say one is better than the other.
D:
I love maus too,it was my first tier 10
mine was obj 268
E5
Any tips for playing the 100.01 p?
Angle
got mauschen sidescrape
168 is downgrade of mauschen
Mine was IS-7 😎
you guys made good choices in your first tier 10s. my first tier 10 was the stb-1 💀. it takes a certain kind of man to go through the toughest grind in the game first.
mine was T110E5, then E 100
stb isn't the worst grind in the game imo I would say e3 is
Maus is the worst grind in the german line in my opinion,but the tank is worth it
idk about you but toughest and worst are two things for me
especially mauschen,it was hell,I had to free exp my way to research maus
i know for a certain fact the type 71 will be the last japanese line in blitz. IDK what other line to grind after that
can is4 pen 60tp upper plate with HEAT
dunno. maybe
i find it very difficult to pen a is4 with 60tp
most tanks do
all tds can pen it with ap
looks like the is-4 can pen the 60tp with prammo
it was my first tier X don't use it anymore because of powercreep
LOL
what's the best MT ?? is it e 50 ?
yes, the patton is good aswell
after the update the turret cheeks were thickened on the e50
how do you pick your targets when running in Chi-Ri? its gun choices have no damage/pen difference from Chi-To
just find distracted targets, peek out for two seconds to dump your clip and move back behind cover
thats what i figured as well, armor isnt much different either
ngl I'm not a huge fan of the centurion 5/1 raac
low alpha and mediocre DPM on a non-clipper is not a great combo imo
It's decent, I think of it as a fast Action X imo.
I like it more than the Action X for some odd reason
The action x has insane dpm though, cent raac has a 4.9 second reload with that pathetic alpha
I'm not saying it's bad, I just don't like it
Harder to dish out damage compared to some other tanks
wdym it easier to do damage in high dpm tanks than derp guns are autoloaders
Wut
High-DPM tanks has some advantages and disadvantages, you have to constantly poke to deal damage, whilst big guns can just shoot, and back into cover.
The advantages of High-DPM tanks is constantly dealing damage over and over and to basically piss off your enemies while you're peppering them 🤣
High DPM doesn't necessarily mean low alpha. Like, ISU-152 is like the 3rd highest DPM in its tier
Well then, let's change it to RoF
Speaking of big gun tanks, what do you think of the play style of the rhm b wt and it’s strengths & weaknesses?
It’s currently one of my top damage dealers, not so good for my win rate (59.47%) but it increases the average damage so fast
It can dish out a large chunk of damage, the turret is rotatable, it has good camo, and it has decent mobility, but I'd say the mobility is average.
The weakness of the RHM is that it's a HE Magnet for everything and you're most likely the priority target people would tunnel for, I'd run spall-liner for the sake of it, the gun can be pretty trolly sometimes, but that's expected of a large caliber gun.
Yes I do use spall liner as one of my provisions.
The only person I can blame for taking a HE in the face when driving a Borsig is probably myself, the Borsig isn’t meant to be in such a position like that in the first place anyway. Sometimes I do play very aggressively in close combat though, and sometimes it does pay off.
Playing it aggressively is one way, and it's quite fun.
Though, I'd definitely recommend frontline support and pick targets that are distracted and dish out that damage.
I find that when using the Borsig I need to have a lot of situational awareness because if I get flanked by a MT or LT I’m basically toast.
Yep, close combat with Borsig can pay off but when you don’t have the element of surprise it will likely end badly
Pretty much
I also recently just learnt this but if a tank is going hull down you can hit it on the turret with HE, it will still do around 200-400 damage, enough to scare it off
Yes, but it depends on the person using the tank.
Most of the time when I do that, they just rush me and tunnel me down
Of course if you’re in a 1v1 it’s probably best not to waste your shot and relocate and re engage the target (from a distance preferably)
But if your teammate is on a hill with a enemy both going hull down you could perhaps help out from a distance by using this tactic
I know 🤣
But the fact they don't care that I have a whole team behind just for that specific person to destroy me is just funny
how do you know which tanks will be sold on shop guys?
tier 8 premium tanks and stuff like that
We don't. Just keep an eye on the Store for any new tanks.
what line i should grind
What heavy I could get with 3.5K gold?
Prediction time, since we are in 8.7 the jp ht is going to be released in 9.0
And my stats prediction for them is
120mm gun, standard tier X HT gun, around 8.9 sec reload (guessing by chieftain reload speed)
Weight about 45-50 tonnes? Guessing this is a heavy by armor and not weight
Speed of 40kph (guessing from chieftain), and around 750 hp engine (guessing by chieftain and the STB-1)
There was an offer for tiger 131 for 2k and fv201 for 3k
you can get T14
save for 8k golds
to buy Obj 252U or T54e2
you can get IS-5 for 1.5k golds only if you and your clan research all the clan resources
Already have Tiger 131 (not worth it lol)
save for t54e2 im sure you will love it
I think that’s a pretty safe guess
I'll be looking to the tank
or obj 252u
I would say that if Tiger 131 have front armor it would be better normal tiger (it's because low tier tiger)
simply beast
T14 is good for top tier
Just get the 54E2
yep
It’s hands down the best tier 8 heavy right now
Not sure, I have small gold. Only spend for BP but I skip this one
Obj 252U is has op armour
or go for AX
AX is heavily overrated
There is a decent chance
Going off from a guess on the shape and size, it looks like a STB-113 hybrid to me
Not really
im thinking
-stb turret without weakness
460+damage because yes
belo average dpm
either that or wz-113 with gun depression and strong gull
The gun does look fairly chonk, so 460 dmg doesn’t seem that odd
I don’t think so tbh
The current meta we have is so incredibly strong that anything new would have to be insanely broken
Thoughts on the o47 on sale now?
skip
It was available at the Xmas auction and I skipped it then..
O47 is a meh tank overall
Also recently available are the E75 TS and the VK 90 ..
you get some you lose some
can't have that armor and mobility AND good dpm
how to play the 4202?
Should i buy vk 90.01 p?
don't
hesh!
Exactly, I don't like its stat distribution
very good tank
but it depends if you can deal with the rear turret placement or not
Action X has insane DPM? Must I refer you to Caernarvon?
action x has better armor
I honestly trust Caernarvon’s turret more than I need to
But hey, it’s a trade of armor and DPM
Action x is like 10 times better than caernarvon
just get the sheriff lmao
better than both
I disagree
Extremely stretched statement, considering Caernarvon has 3025 DPM now
disagree all you want, sheriff is objectively better than action x. and much easier to get. probably can get it for a cheaper price
I disagree
Just get the 54E2 and dunk on every other tier 8 heavy
*Laughs in T32*
Chad
is the Ho-Ri a sprg, self propelled railgun
I'm in a big Ho-Ri... cuz im very late 😉
Ew
with 8.8 update, according to blitz hangar the B-C 25t armor is buffed.
lowest armor on front is 15mm driver hatch buffed to 60mm
top part of turret, from 50mm to 70mm
Ah yes, let's buff the armor of a light tank
That buff won't make a difference anyway whatever
more like a low armor medium honestly, the armor is like the progetto. uses auto richocet to bounce
the most armored lt we have rn is the T-100 LT, with full gun dep you can expose your thick turret and half of your front hull cause it's gonna richochet
Vk 28 105 derp gun is so fun to play
More like a Leo 1
ngl I didn't like any of the tier 5-6 105s from back in the day
Mighty batchat armor is definitely stronger than Leo 1 armor tho lol
i think the BC is better armoured than the leo 1, just because the armor angle
full dep leo 1 front armor can't reach 70 degree, while the BC can
It’ll be more like a Leo than a Prog though
though leo 1 can have 9 deg of gun depression, which can be easily used to bait some shots, good luck trying that with bc
i was talking about armor, not the gun. but yea
leo is also a bit easier to HE
I lowkey wanted an AMX Defender.
I got one from a mystery crate. It's fun to take out every once in a while
After having fun with Spark or Blaze, I hope it is in Store anytime soon.
So the t95…….
Wa?
Just randomly interjecting a tank that I wish could be fixed
I’m finding that it’s rather unbalanced
You are right. They need to nerf its speed. It's gotten way too many speed buffs and no buffs to what the tank is a actually supposed to be about
It’s still not that fast it goes about the same speed it was supposed to irl. But the weak spots they have in the front are driving me insane!!
for the action X just go hulldown and keep poking your turret
T95 is still a good tank, you get armor that works most of the time, a super consumable to fix your speed issue, and a nice gun
Should I buy this camo?
For the sheriff is meh but has good turret but less fun
Practically? Don't. Do you really like how it looks? Go for it
Yeah I like 3d style but is worth it like does really worth money or save for something else
Or should I buy this
Yes
how do the three TX german HTs compare?
Or a legendary camo for the 60tp
having gold enoug for one of two thing a tank or a legendary camo for a tier 10
It got a turret that actually works
Is somewhat nicely mobile
Doesn't have pathetic alpha
Still has dpm.
It IS better than the action x
doent have hight octane fuel in mad games
Ah yes, mad games.
What other good way to compare tanks
What
i find the sheriff boring maybe because doesnt have something
I mean by all means if your top priority is fun in special modes i respect that
Just putting it that "regularly" the sheriff is a better action x
true but the sherrif doesnt have "something" is missing it
What does does the ax have that the sheriff is missing
Chieftain is not, regular caern is
Apparently high octane in mad games is the deal breaker
Something was telling the sheriff lacks what could've made a very good tank
yeah but you're implying the action x doesn't lack that something, which is?
Lacks of armor front area which is a weak spot
And good alpha is what it lacks as well
lmao what are you talking about?
the sheriff has 240 alpha
the action x has 190 alpha
the sheriff has a better turret than the action x without the huge cupola.
what does the upper plate matter for in a hull down tank.
wow!!!! that's amazing
yes.... but if you dont like it then dont LOL
i can see why people find the 1 shot HT in tier 8 with 90-105mm gun lacking
it's just boring, it's just good but boring
the sheriff is better than the AX but because the AX shoots fast, i can say it can be more fun
ax also has a unique appearance, whereas sheriff kinda just looks like a pershing
sheriff is smaller though, and has very good premium ammo pen
stay mad ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'm not mad but okay buddy
sure looks nice but try to buy it when it goes on sale
sure homie :P
don't think twice go for it
T28 prototype is a good tank's?
good gun, bad tank
probably he means that the t28 has bad stats (armor, mobility, etc.) EXCEPT the gun LOL
he means that the gun is amazing but the tank is shit
3k is already an insane deal for that camo. It's about the same or higher quality than the t-100LT camo, which is 5k
Oh shoot, didn’t realize that was the deal they give you
they give it to you after the first battle
not necessarily, camo offer pop-ups have pretty strange triggers
i get it every month
I want to get wz113 but I don't have enough free xp to skip IS-2 it will murder my winrate if I use it? any help
IS-2 gets a lot of hate, idk. I skipped the entire line because I didn't want to play the 110
IS-2 is a good tank's (for me)
is2 is not bad but the russian IS is way better in every way except the 50 or smh hitpoints
I get this yesterday 2 M 1 tank's 1 day in IS-2
I don't know why IS is better than Chinese IS-2
but they both look the same to me
Derp kv2 but worse?
how many battles do you have @pliant pike
if you have less than 1k battles you will face bots
It's good
Really? How should I play it
The examples I see in the wild camp near the edge of the map
Support tank destroyer. The armor is weak
Yep, absolute paper armor from what I know
Also very easy to flank
Most likely you'll stay at the back
nice
its not bad LOL
it does more damage firing premium shell
i like this BP camos
More accuration maybe
It's a nightmare for enemy tank that you are still alive
If you're in tiers 5-7, that thing ain't to be trifled with.
Is it hard to ace in defender mk.1 ?
Think a maus fighting a mausosauras , who will win ?
Maus
Mosasaurus is a shallow water predator, meaning that it would stay near the surface. If the Maus fires High Explosive shells, it would rupture the Mosasaurus’ internal organs, causing it to die
Feels good to be ranked #1 in the Toaster
how does that ranking work?
Thoughts on the polish tank line ?? 60tp line
It's ranked by the best WN8 per server for people with over 30/50/100 battles for 30d/90d/career rankings respectively
should i get the is 7
or the is 4
man i just wanna get a strong tier 10 heavy that can block most shoots
Based only on that parameter, you may want the maus
no no pls no maus
i'm conflicted. i'm burning for a grind, but i'm still a bit disappointed by what the blitz japanese heavy brings to the table atm, and i'm still not sure about going through a different nation.
im grinding for is-7 right now, with the 8.3 update is-7 become more stronger there is no ammorack problem anyways, if you are new (like me) its an cool tank to go on
no im not a newbie. im a veteran
its just that the grind is so boring that im losing my mind and i have no clue what to grind for
just go is-7, its fun u know
u can stuck at IS little bit but line is easy
oki ill try
and funny thing in the line, if we compare the kv-1s with his class, its totally broken lmao
yeah its fun
alpha damage on kv1s is like if the e 100 had a 900 alpha
it can broke everything in his class with the six tier turret
whats wrong with maus?
Maybe they prefer not to angle, or they want other qualities other than “blocking most shells”
is7 is just much better than is4 in these days
I have an idea
Just like the sheridan missile, im suggesting another type of hevicles.
"Event tanks" With purple name, these class of tanks is basically doesn't have it's place in the regular mm. Just like the sheridan missile, it can only be played on fun modes or training rooms
We can add someyhing like the sherman calliope (114mm version), premium shells are the rockets and it only does splash damage
Calliope would be annoying considering how many rockets it even has
Idk why I hate it so much for no reason, absolutely invincible but the traverse speed and saddening dpm isn’t fit for me
I need better advice on is7
Just play aggro and hull down
I wasn't super comfortable on it at first either, but now it's one of my go-to tanks when I'm sick of losing and unable to carry
Oh. The more I know. I should check mine.
How do you play the fv4005 I just got it and need some advice
Type 71
huh
support vehicle.
don't engage enemies directly, take shots at distracted enemies(usually by your teammates).
you need to use the consumables to maximize your effectiveness.
i like to run shell reload boost for obvious reasons. and reticle calibration just because i like to snap my shots especially when i don't wanna wait for the enemy to notice while i aim.
but generally run another repair kit.
I run super speed boost and double repair kits
How would you guys play the jagdpanzer?
i find it mobile just enough
which jagdpanzer
Oh I ment the e 100 version
Install the Spall Liner. The armor is 100% HE-able
Thanks for the help
Thanks
oh yeah right, i felt like i forgot something
Its ok to not use spall if your good enough, but it might require being more passive, patience
spall liner is just too good to sacrifice
it also allows for plays that would otherwise not be possible. it would be disadvantageous not to take it
is turtle any good after the buff
Wanna get HE'd by FV215 183 then?
does anyone else feel like the 263 is too fast for its own good
yes
I feel the need... The need for way more speed
with the narrow gun arc and bad gun handling that it has, the speed just makes it extremely difficult to aim
need for speed vodka edition
The Fast and the furious: tundra rally
Tbh I dislike the 263 a lot. It used to have a fabulous gun that could snapshot across the map, while it did have a weak mantlet.
That was the main reason I played 263 over Foch. The accurate gun. Now I play neither
is the 45 tp good
I hate how the part where the hull connects to the casemate on the 263 is so easy to pen in a facehug
And if you incline your tank slightly downwards to get more gun depression, your engine deck is also a free pen
Yeah basically anyone with two morsels of braincells will try and overmatch the engine deck or miss and hit the flat connection. Although someone with many morsels of braincells will not get stuck in a facehug against a 263.
I mean, some slower tanks might not be able to help it
if only the grille have 1mm bigger caliber
grille vs foch
play as a support second line/sniper, I'd suggest to carry 1 big repair, reticle calibration and the thing which reduces the intra-clip
People call the 122 TM balanced but I honestly think it's a little too weak, it sacrifices some armor, HP, and pen compared to tier 8 IS clones, but doesn't offer much in return besides some extra gun depression. It should at least have some extra mobility, being a medium and all, but it really feels no different from an IS-3
tier 6 is okay, tier 7 is meh, tier has good turret but shit pen, tier 10 is amazing
It's a medium tank, not a heavy
Did you even read my message
122TM is a mobile IS-3. Change my mind
except it's not really more mobile than the IS-3
IS-3 has more effective power/weight and faster traverse
🤔
go look at blitzstars and see for yourself
Oh yeah
People get way to caught up in what weegee classified a tank as
the problem is it feels like a heavy, but isn't as good as the IS clones
Depends on the is clone
There are tanks that need far more help than the 122tm
There are tanks that need nerf sledgehammers before the 122tm even gets considered for rebalancing
I can't really think of any OP tanks in tier 8 that aren't premiums tbh, except the 53TP
Yall think the centurion avre should be added its centurion with a derp 165 mm gun
no
Why?
cuz derps are cancer
Fair enough what about a normal 165 mm
even worse
@jade torrent name a 165mm gun
that is used on a tank
I can't think of one
It will overshadow the Sheridan
I mean
The C.AVRE isn’t fast
Well it's a slow tank
It would be more like a prebuff centurion 7/1 but with a big gun and maybe t10 and if it's in t10 its armor would really mid
what is a derp gun and what makes it derp
short barrel, bad accuracy, high alpha
ah, alrighty
is the AMX 13 57 worth it for 5k gold?
Nah. You can buy a tier 8 premium for that price with free camo, 30-day premium, boosters, and 500K credits.
ah ok, so something like the O-47 deal?
Skip that one. Keep your gold for now and keep your eye on some good ones.
ok thank for the advice
I hope fv215b use thats gun + more longer barrel on his secondary Gun line only use heat and HE but have penetration like regular AP
Royal Ordnance L9 gun
I am very tempted to get the amx 13 57
But i must resist, i want that chi nu kai
I want the cruiser I
which is the said 165mm howitzer
Guys should I get panzer IV or hetzer
Yes use to destroy bunker,so if add on F215B thats Will be same like Fv183 but more heavy
How's the AMX CDC, recommended or not for 6.5k gold
Should I get Is7 or E100
Is-7
IS-7
E 100 can be fun to play around in although the armor isn’t super great for the turret and the lower plate is massive
STA-1
The only right answer
is7
i may be not him but my answer would be the m728
I don’t think they’re bringing it back, it’s a random old tier 2 tank
I discovered the Obj. 752 and... tell me what the hell is this. I didn't even understand if it was a progressive reload or I don't know what
It just reloads quickly for the 880 alpha it has
@plucky summit did you ever get to work on that tank concept we were talking about
I've been thinking about it, nearly done with the tank itself but it seems drawn too reasonably tbh
I'll post the tank w/o stats
For backstory, I'm not very creative with writing so I just had the thought "One of our employees proposed this idea to the board. Briefly after firing him, we decided to work on it."
Give me a couple mins to finish up
@misty wing it is quite heavily inspired by another tank
Hm, the raised turret ring kinda reminds me of the T-101 or whatever it was called
I got this from the wotb tankopedia for T57 heavy
It's probably just a matter of time before the 155mm version came
155mm version was called T58 heavy and had a larger turret, you can look it up
Yea, found it on reddit
T103, but that drawing is inspired by the Pawlack Tank
Oh yeah I vaguely remember that
Hold on.. The gun here looks like the new type 71? Or am i trippin?
They're just making new Jap heavies
You're trippin, the thickness of the barrel isn't longer like on the T58
wrong tank lol my bad
I've been looking at both, and no it's not. Imagine if it have 155mm on that thing
The T58 muzzle is a T, and the 71 is more like a Y
And also like what you said
I feel like that's a pretty common barrel design
I thought it was fake for the longest time I was proven wrong a wile ago
You still can’t convince me that it historically had a 150mm belly
I feel like the majority of wargaming's "fake" tanks actually do have some historical merit, they probably have researchers who have access to documents that we don't
It didn't, that's just a blitz error. PC has the usual paper-thin belly
For the Americans it’s mostly the most accurate it’s the Russians they like taking various liberties in and the Germans
Nah Chinese is definitely the most fake
“IntRoDuCiNG tHe NeW E1057203 wItH a 896cm CanOn”
Also I have my doubts about the Italian and Czech heavies from PC being real
Hell no they aren’t real the Italian T10s are literally MBTS rhinoceronte has a literal CITV sight and unmanned turret
Is that an M60 they show the concept 1b "inside" of?
In the bottom left pic
It’s an M60 outline
It says 60A1 outline
That's kinda cool
3 crew in the hull though 🤔
Driver gunner/commander remember theres two hatches by the side of the cannon
Poor loader alone in the turret
The concept is a proven one and a really good idea although why the US never chose to focus on it and we got starship Xm803 HSTV is a mystery
Also that’s really memeworthy it’s unmanned but one loader in that space
I love the starship and all it’s derpy glory
The thing with these epic-seeming designs is that they are often impractical, uneconomical or both
what is spall liner ?
I got the super Hellcat, is there an offer for the DELTA Legendary camo?
it has a legendary camo?
Oh yeah they’re all totally fake.
At least some of the Japanese heavies have some historical inspiration so they’re like 90% fake instead of 100%.
Y’all talking about Cent AVRE but all I want is the Centaur/Cromwell CS version with the 95mm howitzer.
isnt 60tp line also mostly fake
Is Titan-150 that bad? (Btw this isn't in any game mode)
For all those that recommended I get the m48 Patton... :DD
test tank, most probably going to get massive nerfs before release
any tips on the chinese TD line?
None of the tanks really play similar except the tier 9 and 10
should i snipe, they seems to have bad accuracy still at tier 6
they do but you kinda have to in the tier 6 and 7
armor seems kinda unreliable
only the tier 10 has reliable armor, and that's only if you're hulldown against a med/low pen tank that's not using cali
tier6-7 are definitely meant for that, tier8 is almost a heavy but with decent armor only when hulldown, tier9 has a great gun and tierX is a bit meh, cuz you're paper against even most tier9's prammos, but the gun is still decent (still worse than obj268's)
tier 10 > tier 9 imo
tier for tier the 9 is better, especially cuz of tier10 gun, which basically makes tier8-9 butter
nah the tier 9 is definitely worse, it's super slow, the armor is worse tier for tier, and the gun's reload is stupidly long
the armor is better tier for tier actually, most tier8 can't pen it even with gold, while the tier10 can easily be penned with heat by tier9s
that's just not true, the tier 9's front is only like 240-260 effective, which is an easy pen for many tier 8s and every tier 9
the tier 10 goes from around 280-300 effective and you can actually angle it since they buffed the cheeks, making it difficult for meds and some heavies to pen with pramo
a lot of same tier heavies can pen the front of the tier 9 with standard ammo, which really isn't the case for the tier 10
lower plate aside obviously
what does spall liner mean?
It’s a special provision that some tanks have. It reduces damage taken by HE shells
k
How to get more kills in V.K.30.01 P ?
live longer
And drive it more efficiently ?
Hmm is wotb going on a streak of selling french tanks
What do you guys think of Leopard?
1 is good but if caught against a KV-1 por STUG III G it would die and I think Panzer V G also would also be able to destroy it
Yeah, but it can be countered by using your allies as a distraction, so you can flank the enemy and fire at his sides, also he deals 300+ (Almost the same as T6 Amx Autoloader) so he's pretty great at giving supportive fire
Also it's pretty much useless against T6 Meds/Heavy tanks, so that's a really big disadvantage
Also yeah Panzer V G could be able to just bounce him under a angle and attack him when he's reloading
What do your think about this bundle?
I'd rather buy it in gold
It's turret is crazily armoured
I feel like it's sort of another CDC but in tier 9 plus more armour, CDC is a joy especially bullying turretless Tds
Could someone give me a SS (screenshot) of CDC's engine? And the name of it
I miss the 1er proto with 105
I played one battle in the 30 1er and sold it lol
Could someone please remind me what the first Japanese heavy tier is going to be? I wanna know which tank to use beforehand to get enough xp
I'll ask again. The Super HellCat has a legendary camo, is it being offered after acquiring the tank from the lockboxes?
T54e2 is trash
what abaut is 8
German engine
You have a decent turret and a good gun. I think you can see where this is going
Since we’re all saying false things, you’re good
Weirdly but the speed is epic
uhm is chaffee any good
It’s average
how bout bulldog
heyy I was planning on getting the amx 13 75, wanted to ask you all if it is worth it or not...
Bulldog is good as long as you can light tank properly. Also the 13 75 is okay, the 13 90 is good, 25t AP is meh, BatChat is good
i cant light tank properly on iphone :<
thanks
T10 bc only good tank in the whole line
Then you may struggle with the bulldog
I really enjoy the whole french lt autoloaders.. hence was asking if the premium was worth it
I love the bulldog for its speed maneuverability and quick reload, its fun to just drive around imo, downside is it takes alot of HE and can get 1 shot by SU-152 lol
The 13 57 is fun, but not exactly good
Same story for CDC
Edit: but the gun depression on this thing is crazy
hmm
CDC gun depression isn’t anything to write home about, especially with its turret
see I am a f2p player, and I only have 5000 gold after 2 years of grinding.. soooooo unless it's stupidly fun, I'd rather not go for it..
I’d recommend something else than the 13 57
Well if u know how to use the peek a boo method then it is very useful
examples?
The turret is big and made of tissue paper, peel a boo isn’t gonna help you much
my god i just looked at the STG and its ugly as hell
Well here in Asia server people are kinda stupid, so I mean it's not that bad as long as you dun poke out too much
😂 it's disgusting
Chim, Shark, 252
It’s as bad as it looks.
T22 medium in year end auction would be good too but that you got to spend plus snatch it before it's gone
I see
T22 is power crept at this point
true, it would prob start at 10,000
and the players would easily drive it up to 20,000
sooo guess I'm stuck with my gold till a good deal comes along.. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Unless they do it like last year the prices go down at the end
Well I plan to spend on the 75k gold bundle before the auction IF the auction is going down not up
Wotb auctions don't work like actual auctions
Thx
That’s an extremely good point
I would prefer a normal auction system, people have a bidding period and top 5000 bids win the tank
Yeah no kidding
They should just post tons of them individually
you don't need to post tons of them individually you could do what PC does for auctions
I haven’t seen that actually. I’ll have to look
A Dutch auction is one of several similar types of auctions for buying or selling goods. Most commonly, it means an auction in which the auctioneer begins with a high asking price in the case of selling, and lowers it until some participant accepts the price, or it reaches a predetermined reserve price.
Technically we get what's called a dutch auction during December. Tbh I'd prefer not having to bid to get a tank regardless but it is people and their money
is the 13 57 worth it for 5k for a t54 ltwt player
no
buying prems under tier 8 is scuffed
Talk to the smasher lol
still scuffed
normal battles but we won and most did 0 dmg and no one died LOL
capturing the base moment
True, so it's more for going against other mediums and lights. It can still go against heavies and tank destroyers, but the larger caliber guns will need a slightly different play style and tactics.
im suprised the TVP can sidescrape and bounce shots really well against tanks with caliber lower than 135mm at least
Man I love sprocket
Somua strong.
nah, it's garbage
nah it is decent
gun yes.
armor stronk
the tank is decently mobile for the armor it gets.
but i agree on the gun. why is it so horribly inaccurate? it already got trash DPM.
The Somua is rather bad
You did say the armor's decent but everything else is either decent or trash.
The same can be said about the ISU152 if that's the case.
It has an amazing gun, but everything else about it is also decent or trash.
If the Somua is the worst HT in your opinion, the ISU152 is on the same level.
not a bad tank, just not for everyone.
some people prefer gun
some people prefer armor
somua is for those who prefer armor
What armor? The Somua’s armor only works against people who can’t aim
it's tier 8
I know, and the armor is meh at best
250 at ground level is already great for tier 8, especially those who haven't saw a somua in a while
combine with the speed and you'll bounce a lot
Oh no! Anyways
No one aims there when I play my Somua.
Also what speed? The Somua has average heavy tank mobility, which isn’t that good
Then you’re facing a bunch of monke’s because the cupola is so easy to hit because it’s absolutely massive
It's acceptable.
oh no a weakspot, just like many other tanks
Well, yes but actually no
It’s a rather large weak spot
just like many other tanks
Compare that to an actually good tank, say the Shark, and it’s absolutely massive
With a huge lfp.
So you hull down, ez. Also Somua has a large lfp as well
the shark cant sidescrape as good as the somua
No, it's smaller.
again the somua is not the best, but it's not bad
ah yes the shark
the totally balanced tier 8
best thing to compare the somua to
Just shoot the tracks
use blitzhangar, more than 70 degree
auto richochet
The Somua is literally a great tank
I mean, if we’re going to try and say the Somua is good, we have to compare it to something which is actually good, what would you rather compare it to so that the Somua doesn’t look like the healing pile of garbage it is?
somua is balanced in a tier thriving with op tanks.
it is by no means bad, but the gun accuracy really needs to be fixed.
the armor works around corners and in close quarters pretty well.
but it is not made to hull down.
So it’s not made to do the best tactic in the game for literally any tank, which is hull down. This makes it unviable in over half the maps due to how the maps are set up, which promotes hull down
shark less than 70, penetration still possible
flawless logic, let me compare it to the one of the most OP tanks in the tier. the shark is not just "good" it is literally the best heavy in that tier. (you can debate the t32 may or may not compete with the shark a bit)
So what are we going to compare it to?
oh hulldown is the singular tactic in the game?
guess E100 and the like is trash
Not singular, but it is absolutely dominant. Making it so the enemy can only hit your turret is a huge advantage
All of the current meta tanks have strong turrets because it just works the best
other balanced tier 8s?
it may not be meta but the somua is not bad at all.
unless you literally just try to hull down in it and nothing else
didn't say otherwise
using it as a judgement point for tank that is not made for it is just iffy logic regardless of how effective of a tactic it is
What do you consider balanced tier 8s? I’m just looking for something to compare it to so that you can’t complain when it looks like it is, bad.
I'll say the IS5.
Or T2020.
the somua is a playstyle dependand tank
if you can't play it ( @violet timber ) then you wont like it
if you can, you would find it great
What is the Somua’s play style exactly?
Because I see ten degrees of gun depression and 200mm of frontal turret armor and that screams out “hull down”. Then you see the hatch
I would compare the Somua to the M-III-Yoh. Both are strong tanks at tier eight
Me too.
Somua any day though.
IS3, T2020 as the guy said.
M-3-Yoh
IS-6
IS3-Defender
Lowe
just to list a few. and those tanks are totally balanced but not meta at all.
you don't necessarily have to play hull down. you can literally play around corridors and corners, peek a boo and such.
the only thing making it suffer much is the gun accuracy which is atrocious for no reason.
It also has an insanely long clip reload, which forces you to sit out of the fight for 23 seconds
IS3 Defender has about the same.
i would say you could tune the gun a bit for the tank but that is about it.
although i fear giving it competitive DPM is not a good idea
I find
Strong frontal hull + strong turret face + good mobility + autoloader a pretty good reason
being a heavy that could reliably bounce shot and use your armor and HP to help your team.
basically probably almost the same as maus, not doing a ton of damage
I picked the Yoh and IS-3D just because they also had auto loaders so they were the most similar
yes but it basically has 1880
the gun accuracy has no business being this bad.
i guess you could say one of them has to stay and the other has to be buffed
I’d personally take the Yoh just because of the gun and turret combination, though I could see why you’d prefer the Somua to the IS-3D
The Somua SM is not a tanker, as an autoloader it is naturally a damage dealer, and due to the armour and low dpm it is a supportive heavy tank
I just want to say that the gun handling isn‘t even that bad
never said otherwise
buffing the accuracy does not magically change its role in the battle.
also would totally not take the Yoh over the somua
The Somua is just let down by a massive weak spot that it can’t hide if it wants to deal damage, bad accuracy (because weegee says so), and a long clip reload
At least it's not bad as Russian 122mms.
no no it is very horrible
i was kinda disappointed that i got the tank out of the snow globe but i grew to like it.
i still despise its gun handling
I usually don‘t say „let down“, but „balanced“
🤷♂️ It just doesn’t work well with a more aggressive play style I guess
I also want to point out that especially for average or below average players the Somua SM is a great combination of burst damage and armour, making playing it effectively fairly easy
I honestly doubt that, the tank is perfectly suited for aggressive playing. You shouldn‘t try to linger around and block damage though
The clip reload kind of kills any sort of aggressiveness you can have though
Every other autoloader also have a long clip reload.
On,y if you are alone. Also, you can use the reload time to reposition or plan your next move; there is no need to sit around in the same location waiting for the reload to finish
23 seconds is a lot of time, compared to the average of around 20 at tier 8. Also, 3 second interclip
my thoughts are the accuracy is what kills the aggressive potential of it.
i wanna be able to effectively put my shots but with that dispersion and aim time it is difficult though i have to say it is still perfectly doable
3 secs more, big deal.
3 seconds adds up over time, as well as the 3 second interclip
Oh boy I love taking 29 seconds to do 930 damage
Don’t forget that hatch you have to expose to actually shoot, and that you have to sit still to aim which lets the enemy aim at your hatch
That's what I do.
Aside from that, you have your intraclip anyways which will have you aimed in enough anyways
not sure why kept focusing on the weakspot? the whole turret is weaker than the hull
hence you should bait shots on the hull more
Just got big boss on AT 7 10 shot :)
Oh no
:)
Oh that poor enemy team
how do i properly play chaffee and bulldog, i always seem to die even if i run cuz im not fast enough
Don't push up too far, make sure you can always run somewhere where you have cover
what if there’s literally nobody supporting me
and all the enemy lights and meds chase me till the end
Then go to somewhere you have support
so…heavy side? @violet timber
Depends on where your team goes
nobody is being too nice
it is a matter of a fact that the somua is balanced
but that is what most people consider "below average" nowadays. since it isn't a t32 or a shark :P
your reasons?
it has almost no advantages aside from having a clip and some armor, but neither of those are strong enough to balance out the weaknesses that it has, namely the huge cupola, horrible gun handling, and horrible DPM and reload
you ignore that it is decently mobile
has great traverse
the armor is far from weak rofl
the gun is justifiable besides aim time.
armor and mobility combo with a clip. it is balanced. perhaps your standards are too high?
having high standards is normal, especially when you're looking at a premium
it's not fun to play nor does it ever work against decent players
if you think the somua's gun is justifiable then idk what to say
perhaps your standards are too low
as for the first statement. it is the shark point all over again. it isn't OP and is a premium therefore trash. god forbid we have balanced premiums.
as to not fun to play? subjective.
doesn't work against decent players? ehhh disagree.
it's not OP but it can be better without being OP
it is justifiable
besides the accuracy. again.
now that i agree on, i mostly wish for a gun handling buff
this is why I only play tier 10, because tanks aren't as incredibly scuffed as they are in tier 8
too many tier 7-9 tanks try to have a really high alpha, clip, pen, or something along those lines
and then they have to give up tons of gun handling or something to have it
that is really wargaming's fault.
it is the most profitable tier for a reason, most premiums are very outstanding for no reason but profit
my opinion is that if a tank can benefit from a buff without instantly shooting to the top of the meta, then it is in fact too weak
and by that I obviously mean a noticeable buff, not +2 kmh top speed or something
that is simply false
there are degrees to tank states, call it a spectrum if you wish.
but tanks aren't categorized into trash, balanced and OP only.
well if the spectrum consists of the numbers 1-10 then I believe the somua falls below 5, and therefore is too weak
that is but your opinion
it is in fact doing pretty well.
and according to that the KV-5 is the best tank?
i see no reason to call it too weak.
it benefitting from a gun handling buff without being broken doesn't mark it as below average either
if you choose to ignore tank characteristics sure (notice that is relative WR)
but to make a judgement on a tank you take in mind a mix of data and tank characteristics
I'm gonna judge based on my experience playing and fighting the tank
oh then if we are doing that i must say, somua is an absolute banger of a tank.
see how flawed that is?
it's flawed because that's probably cap
this is roughly how I would rank the tier 8 heavies, somua is pretty meh among them
wh-
i can point out some very apparent flaws. but it is based on your opinion so fair enough
granted a lot of those tanks have changed since I last played them (and some I haven't played at all)
and ngl I don't enjoy any of them except the shark
gun handling in tier 8 is just too poor across the board for my taste
On a side note, I think someone screwed up the tanks.gg page
see if you can spot what happened lul
yup, you are definitely biased and have too high of a standard for tier 8s
to start off, Sheriff > Action x. and i don't think i need to explain why.
lowe is3 defender in the same rank with glacial? really?
EXP is by no means bad, but admittedly it is not too great either.
1951 Viking in the same rank as AMX 50 100 🤔 ?
t32 not OP?
i just heavily disagree with the list.
ngl the action x vs sheriff placement was a mistake
tank names or what. i am not too experienced with tier 10s in WoT
they just translated a bunch of things, like Maus -> mouse and Kranvagn -> crane truck
yeah lol
idk why lol
i think that is just what the player base calls them
but i don't see a cheese wedge(swedish TDs) so i might be wrong.
"rheinmetall armored car" moment
lol, flip wagon
I can move the T32 up to very good, but I don't think it's OP
I've never played the 50 100 but the emil 1951 feels pretty bad imo, probably my most regrettable purchase in this game. It feels kinda like the somua but I gave it one higher tier for its better dpm and smaller profile
I think the fact that most tanks ended up in the middle tier makes my list automatically better than droodles' anyhow
personally i would heavily avoid both lists, no harsh feelings.
Thank you for your input!
looks like someone has put some of his though. :P
I tried to tier every tier 8 but got kinda lazy and started putting everything in average lmao
if the list was based purely off my opinion I would put everything into garbage tier
ehh fair enough
to me every tier 8 feels unfun and hard to carry in compared to tier 10
a product of the state of balance the tier is in.
tier 10 is easily the most balanced(some say tier 9 is more balanced) and fun to play.
even if tier 10 was unbalanced it would still be the most fun because you're never bottom tier
Just play a tank that's fine bottom tier (eg is8)
being bottom tier is not necessarily unfun, i just don't enjoy tier 9 as much because most tanks don't feel as fleshed out as the tier 10s, or i sometimes just prefer the tier 10 over the tier 9
haven't they nerfed its mobility?
Oh no
I forgor 💀
At least it still is decently mobile with that juicy gun
having played the tank before the nerf i am just generally displeased ngl, feels very sluggish compared to its former glory. but it can still hit the 40s at least.
I feel like heavies in general are difficult to balance because they can be very oppressive when top tier but absolutely useless when bottom tier
at least heavies that are supposed to play the "heavy" role
it's different for autoloaders and unorthodox heavies
Yup, unless they have weakpoints. The vk100 is a absolute beast but can still be dealt with by low tier tanks.
The black prince style tanks are ones what just wipe out anything of lower tier
tier 9 is especially tricky because it sees tier 8s
look at centurion 7/1 when it faces tier 8s.
doom gameplay
Meh
That was pre nerf charioteer seeing tier 7s
The 7/1 is at least giant and poorly armored
E75s are nasty to play against as t8s
I remember being kinda underwhelmed by the IS-8 as well, wish they would update it to the T-10 with PBR and a slight buff to something
not after the turret buff
and it also received a mobility buff. it is absolutely delightful to play now
oh god E75, yup the crown definitely goes to that.
The hull is still giant and poorly armored
It's very easy to poke a little farther than the 71 was expecting and slap it in the hull
well, yes that is very true
look at this T-100 LT
shoot the top part of the hull in full depression hulldown and you bounce AP and APCR rounds
richochet armor best armor
Ho-Ri prammo
Your point being?
Just a question is AMX 30 1er Prototype like the CDC?
Cuz I am trying to get someone that has it to give their opinion
now imagine a tank with minimal 70mm armor, front is angled like the prog and the bottom plate is also a richochet angle, the sides are angled like the t22 medium.
and the turret are in the back, the turret looks like it takes inspiration from the STRV-103 without bottom plate and with 70mm of armor infront, and 120mm in the side
new tier X collector halloween heavy tank
no
amx 30 is miles better because of the shorter and sleeker profile, plus the fact it has some turret armor
cdc is just a pinata
wz-111 or wz-112-2? and why?
O
I guess it's fine since I have a trusty old 121b
WZ-112-2
much better armor and much better reverse speed
112-2
um no, amx 30er is an extremely strong tank if you use it right, insane mobility, and gun handling, decent alpha, works hulldown. its my favourite tank though so
true
u should play tier 9 vickers
ıf u dont need credits
does it play similar to the amx?
good dpm and alpha, vickers most strong tank in tier 9 medium
and amx's penetration garbage,
but um, there's also centurion, wz and tvp
not the strongest even if you consider vickers a medium which it aint
Ok. TDs can still pen ur turret right
object 3?
he is youtuber
OMG YES
Is this tank good?
he's probably the best player in blitz by all time stats (talking about random only, not tournaments partecipation)
yes, just play hulldown and it should be fine
Ok
Anything i should be worried about?
always keep wiggling, the turret cheecks are weak, also the mobility it's not the best, so don't push too aggressively because u won't be able to fall back
Doesn't really matter when the upper plate is already so weak
Oh lol Emil 1951 plus somua sm cost 17K GOLD
actually the major problems are the cupola and the cheecks on the sides of the gun mantlet
yes...
I havent got hit in the cupola yet
doesn't mean it won't happen
From my experience so far in the m60, its like a heavy
good upper plate, crap sides, stronk turret, amazing dpm and meh pen
guys im near to buying the t32 any tips on how to use it?
Hull down
It’s like the e50m. heavyish, but can’t play like one
Not really, it’s like the M48
an improvement of the M48 plays like the M48 who would've thought
🤷♂️ just pointing out how it doesn’t play like the E50M because nothing else plays like the E50M can
E50M plays like an E50M
Exactly
there would be no room for any crew and therefore the tank would be useless
Not to mention if a taller tank just shoots down, the armor turns to mush
Guys i got a question what is better to grinde Jg. PZ. E100 or the VK 72.01 K (If Jg. PZ E100 which tier 8 JPanther 2 or Ferdinand)
Is the Vickers worth it?
But what if it's the size of a maus
@radiant ember . Well dude is up to you, if you want good mobility and Fire rate you can Jpanther2 but if you want thick armor but Slow you can choose Ferdinand. Well just some issues with those tank up there. They have one Rival it was ISU-152 + BL-10 and LT/MT of course 😄😄. I wish you luck for your choice Comrade
Yes
VK72 is better, jag is just a big box that gets penetrated every time because you always have to expose your weakspots before you fire and the they remain exposed even after you start to pull back behind cover
vk 72 can actually block stuff fairly reliably
Vk is bad get jg e100 you just gotta angle @radiant ember
But jagd is more fun
I agree jageroo is alot of fun to play around in
<@&481447501690568709>

Thanks.

“just angle” meanwhile you have large drive sprockets that anyone can track you with, a massive lower plate, not to mention the superstructure cheeks that are an autopen to virtually anything loading gold
