it is like the shot once and go out in the open waiting to die :/

Normal.

The fail is especially prominent in the tier 7/8 games now. I think the bulk of the botters/AFK/multi-boxers are currently there. Mostly in Russian heavies too.

144 can pen but most of the time bounce... and the copula is small.
not like IS series. so big, hide behind dead tank also still can see the copula.
*
It'll definitely bounce if the T29 angles even 10 degrees. So best is still to flank and track him. tongue.gif (I like shooting the roadwheels of tanks now. Tracks and deal damage at the same time. Win-win.)

i had better screenshot than this. my vk2801 did most damage in the team.
It's either those tank are stock or just blindly go out in open and get shot by multiple tank.

btw, i love T25/2. Cant imagine when i get T28 prot. Sure not use to it's slow grandpa movement.
*
The T28 prot gains awesome armour in compensation. It can actually act as a stopgap heavy in games where max tier is 8/9. Plus, your gun is actually scary.

i am expecting at least by this tier they should have the basis in ambush, angling and whatnot. Then i realized i am playing wot where the spg scout, ht camp, td assault, and lt sit far back. Somehow i hate prem 8 tanks players because of this. Most of the time my assumption is correct: straight buy n play prem tanks w/o even touching tier i (okay that is a hyperball but you catch my drift)

I met a platoon of fail premiums the other day. 40%, 42% and 39% winrate respectively in a FCM 50t, IS-6 and surprisingly, IS-3.

I decide on RoF and penetration. Damage is not really all that important imo.

Penetration is way more important than damage, unless you're the one who always ops for gold ammo.
*
Given a choice between pen and accuracy, I'll almost always opt for accuracy. Though this choice usually only comes up a few times, like the ARL 44 and its 90mm guns.

Ahh...you must be using TDs a lot then.
I mostly love playing my heavies. So that's mostly the reason for my choosing high pen guns.
Accuracy is awesome for TDs. Most accurate gun I've used so far is the Jagdtiger's 12.8cm PaK 44/2 L/61. Accurate to the dot.

When it goes to JgPzE100.....screw that shit. Pretty accurate, but bullshit penetration. Though now it's better than before.
800 m/s to 925 m/s. Though still, if I shoot the side of a BatChat, the front of an M12, or just anything that is usually easy to penetrate even with a little angle with my AC Mle 46, and they're usually only tracked or bounced, that's absolutely bullshit.

And I've never encountered that with my JagdTiger. lol
*
Surprisingly, I don't main TDs. tongue.gif (You can check my stats, I have an even spread on all tanks, and 80% of those are Russian, which aren't known for accuracy.)

But given a choice, I will pick high accuracy guns over somewhat-accurate on paper boomsticks but always fail in practice, as you said about the JPzE100. I had enough of that shit in my T30 and T110E4.

Then you have to try british mk7 and e-50 or e-50m
This 3 tank are highest acc in games
*
I'm actually using the Caern now. Damn that 20pdr is the shit. 0.31 accuracy on a heavy lol.

Say, your primary percentage of commander of KV-1S was 100% and your Sixth Sense was also 100%, when transferring, since both of KV-1S and IS are HT, so without using any credits/golds:

Commander 100% Sixth Sense 100% in KV-1S
will be
Commander 80% Sixth Sense 100% in IS

Since your Sixth Sense perk is already 100%, the perk will be active as usual, but you have to retrain your Commander in IS from 80% to 100% for him to attain a new skill/perk.

Do correct me if I am wrong guys icon_question.gif
*
That is correct. There's also the hidden cost of having all progress to the next percentage point being reset in the change though, but that does not become significant until you're training your third skill or so. (By then, you're looking at 90-100k exp for one %)

Hi guys. New here, i'm [RAGE]AhPekChoong from SEA. I was reading through some blogs about WoT's MM and I found this :

I find it interesting but I need to ask, is this information true?

Lots of tinfoil hat speculation and conspiracy theories.

I would take it with a giant barrel of salt. Also note that his figures aren't very valid, since they use a relatively small sample size.

I'd get the upgraded engine as soon as you can. It gives AMX 13 75 some much needed speed.

Test out the M60 last night

it just a premium T10 meds = not really excel at anything

cant hull down coz turret armor are rubbish and tall

dome turret  not really helping since most gun have 250 penetration

armor is meh but since its medium it should be fast and agile

but nooo, lets give it bad speed and bigger than T110e5

i shoot my clan mate with spg 1649 dmg in pubs ph34r.gif
*
It'd be a balance problem if premium tanks are better than elite normal tank.

(Like the Type 59 before they nerfed it. It's still not sold at the store for a reason.)

mostly because the highest they meet at Tier 9 and not 10

i think its before T10 meds and TD introduce

so of coz it look OP,

but T10 premium thumbup.gif

gonna rolling in credits if tank crews have 3/4 skills
*
When it was first introduced (this one is second-hand info, but I believe it's true), the Type 59 was a tier 7 tank, with nearly the same stats, and under the old MM, was meeting tier 3/4 tanks. You can imagine the rest.
