After do some checking & compare:

I have 3 options to get my hands on T95:

1. Shortest route from T3 HMC to T28 => 220,090 XP
2. More expensive route from hellcat line to T28 Prot. then T28 => 333,090 XP
3. T2 Medium tank line transition to T28 => 279,305 XP

TD route:

MT to TD transition route:

Pro & Cons:

1. Option 1 is the cheapest way to T95, but no other tech line open up.
2. Option 2 provides another path for T110E4 grind without the need of grinding tier 3 and 4, but at the cost of 110,000 XP, but you do get the T28 Prot. & T28 together.
3. Option 3 opens up the USA MT line & HT line, but at the cost of extra 53,785 XP in order to reach T28

Which route should I pick?
*
I usually don't focus on picking the shortest route .... to me more important is the journey ..... everyday only like 1hr to play I don't want to play in a tank I hate. I'm having lots of fun in t67 now.


Also ...... anyone having internet issue? Ever since ytd my connection not stable, keep jumping up and down and screen jerking, very hard to play ...

Currently I am using Maxis broadband, when the clock hits 2330-0000 onwards very spiky between 80 ping to 500+ ping...

I will start practicing early morning tanking to check the connection.

+++++++++++++++++++++

Yeah I am actually more lean towards T67 line as I like that super sneaky open-top scout/TD a lot... It will be slight more costly to unlock T28 prot line if I were to get both T30 and T95 at a shot...

How do you think on current T28 & T28 Prot? From the stats on paper T28 Prot. its has everything better than T34 except mobility...

Comparison:

Wolverine to T28 => 333,090
T67 to T28 => 341,160 (additional 8070 XP needed)

From T67 to T28 is the most expensive option to reach T95, but in this way I can get T67 + open up a path for a turreted T30...

Now struggling between opening up other options VS cheapest XP cost to T95...  cry.gif  cry.gif  cry.gif

T28 prot is actually quite famous, the front is decent and the size isn't big ...... its a comfortable tank to graind both, but personally I wouldn't graind T30 cause its similiar to T29 and T34 ..... which I have played. the problem with this model is although you have a thick face your haul is cake pen, at high lvl its a bit fustrating cause not everytime you get to find good spot to haul down.

In t9 and t10 match your thick face can be pen by all the famous TD direct too, so making haul down like playing in a t8.

Got my T95 and start grinding since Fri night!!!

Made the choice of spending the least free XP route to unlock T95...

Still using 122mm with Enhance coil suspension to grind 155mm tho...

My advice on this beast after using it for a couple of game:

1. Get its engine upgrade first if you havent, engine is more important than the suspension. Stock engine is terrible (T28 user wont feel this pain...)
2. 2nd get its main 155mm gun asap, 21 degree of gun arc + terrible gun traverse takes a lot of skills for using 122mm to aim at enemy weakpoints + wriggling to avoid being shot, all that for 400 damage only.
3. 155mm gun not only contribute its shock factor to stop enemies to advance, it increased the Zoom turtle's total damage output per game a lot as it don't have many chance to keep brawling with tanks...
*
Lol ...... You skip all the line just to be in t95?

Anyway ....... how much discount you have on the projetto now? I'm at 50% but after seeing them in battle field I don't think they are worth it, sure it could surprise and kill lone wolf .... but its sitting between a MT and an autoloader firing capabilities ... what suck most is it punish you for spamming bullets ...... so if you ever get caught against an autoloader you gonna die rly fast. Also pretty easy to pen them. Looks like a so so tank only. The autoreloader is kinda gimmicky.

After unlocked the 155mm gun finally:

The PEN and alpha instantly boosted into 2.4k and finally I able to fight tier9 and 10 tanks with its decent 276 PEN...

I am so worried my recent performances at the weekend is caused by my poor skill of driving T95...

T95 with 122mm finding enemy weakspots while moving: More challenging than using FV4005 and survive...

1x Garage Slot
1 day Premium Account time

===============

Btw, I giving up Progetto... 40-50% discount with stupid bundle price is not worth for a 212 PEN  with 9 degree of gun depression. At least M4A1 ravioli still have 390 alpha and can snipe from sides. Unless they decided to release Vanilla Progetto with garage and applicable with discounts.

If I am looking for Autoloaders with short drum reload CD, I might well as focus on T57 line grinding with Premium accounts. Planning to trade my SKG/Ravioli to T34...

STRV-S1 imo still the best T8 prem for adapting T9-10 matches...
*
A few of my expert pal say the progetto only worth if you are very good at medium tank battle and fairly familiar with the timing ..... I have lots of match where they spam bullets and end up getting rush after the 3rd shot because enemy counted.

As for the T57 ...... I would actually recommend karnvagn instead. A bit less pen compare to the t57 but trade for better face armor and a troll in haul down situation. I find t57 cheek too easy to get pen most of the time when it comes to trading.

That means EU make game changing decisions, NA make commercial changing decision, asia is only yes master.

QUOTE(air @ Apr 27 2018, 10:03 AM)
Not sure about progetto's turret/hull layout, but with 212 PEN and 240 alpha, I rather play FV4202 (which I just sold due to anemic alpha but still good 230 PEN) at least its turret is pretty solid when doing ridge line sniping, no point to keep staying at a point but keep dinging on tier 8-9 enemy weakpoints with so-so shell velocity.
M4A1: 200 PEN APCR with 1.4k shell velocity (great for sniping scouts/MTs), can do heavy damage on HTs/TDs when flanking.
FV4202: 230 PEN AP with decent shell velocity (great credits against all type) due to its gun handling
Progetto: Have to stay in a place for 6 secs to dish out some decent damage with a huge chance of RNG dinging on ppl weakspots.

*
Well in my opinion the progetto is more of a recon flanker, not suppose to go face to face against heavy with a pen more then 225, cause that would mean 80% of the tier 8 will be a no match against a MT autoreloader that could butter most of the HT's HP in 3 load at the front. That's like bringing a sniper spg before their dmg got nerf. Certainly crazy and over powering. Their intention is just to give this tank support ability with a gun that seek opportunity.

For me the reason why I skip this tank is because I'm ok in mid range fight, but the size is much bigger then the current MT that I enjoy, which is the T-44 and I prefer a solid average reload then unknowingly fu*k up my shots when I get too excited. So I am most likely just gonna graind the tree instead of having the premium.

Lorr40t: 230 PEN, I would rather buy Lorraine if I want decent PEN with good alpha. This is why progetto's price maybe should set to the same lvl as M4A1 ravioli or slightly more expensive instead of that stupid bundle.

Yesterday many of my T95 games, Progetto always very fast die or die in a very stupid way... players always overestimate tank's reloader mechanics thus overwhelmed, reloader mechanics are supposed to provide flexibility instead of replacement of auto-loaders.

Nowadays, without having 1 or 2 female crews for commander + drivers, I will not explore a new tech tree line~ repairs/camo/sixth sense/clutchbraking/off-road too important to miss...
*
For me I'm usually not fuzzy about having the best crew + perks and equipment ....... If I play and I like the tank at stock value I can earn 1 - 2 perk in a month or so, I always stock extra equipment when there is a discount for tanks down the road.

LT is very tricky to play at tier8-10 games, as most of the MTs can sometimes outspot LTs in passive scouting due to super long view range. Thus I put my blackdog resting at garage first until WG decided to do something about current LT meta.

Among all my prems, Progetto can only bully my:

- Skorpion G - Progetto can easily hit my gun mantlet & retreat before I could firing back, without building cover, basically I am food for this tank.
- Blackdog - always lose to auto-loading meds in similar top speed.
- Mauerbrecher - Slow tank & turret traverse thus very vulnerable to Progetto flanking hit & run attacks.

My current requirements of prem tanks before I putting real cash in:

- Alpha/PEN/Mobility/Gun handling must be balanced enough to fight at least tier9 regular tanks, unable to fight tier 10 tanks is pretty normal
- Sniping type always > shell velocity top priority over alpha/PEN - Revaloise/STRV-S1
- Brawling type always > 220 PEN for weakpoints - Defender/IS-3A
- for Mid-range support Either extreme armor or else extreme camo for protection (Mauerbrecher/STRV-S1)

The only 2 functioning prems that I find a bit awkward: Skorpion-G & SU100Y - both need large covers in order to function well. Poor camoflage/huge profile and almost 0 armor, only for a massive gun with so-so handling.
*
Idk ...... for me progetto never get to bully me while I'm in my skorpion g, cause he never get to find me in the battle field. Most of the time if I'm the last few to die I usually die in the hands of scout.

as for other tanks .......

E100 vs prog = laugh.gif

Jagdtiger vs prog = laugh.gif

Bc-t vs prog = lure him shoot, then charge and zig zag when he is at the end of his last shell, run around him and make him small.

T44 vs prog = this tank can out trade the prog because of fast treverse speed. Pop out, snap shot then pop back in and usually he will miss especially if you are behind a cover. But if you get track and he spam then you'll get punish for 50% of your health

obj 257 vs prog = your tank can cut them like butter, just make sure you don't give your @ss.

skorpion G vs prog = So far I had never expose my self to a prog, pretty sure in 1 to 1 situation at close range I"m gonna be dead, but if you ever get caught at mid range or close range by MT or HT you are dead anyway.

T-10 vs prog = t10 is a little dissapointing cause at tier 9 the tank is performing like tier 8, the gun only had slightly better pen but the armor isn't as superior as all their counterparts in the tech tree. I would say you'll have to be really careful if you are using t10 to fight. I just hope the new tier 10 they replace gonna be some insane beast.

e-75 vs prog = fairly good chance to out trade, just make sure you don't give flat side to enemy

jag e100 vs prog = well this will be in the near future, but jagdtiger already made them smell like burn mushroom at long or mid range, I'm pretty sure this is going to butter them so hard they jizz fire out of their hatch.

In any case the progetto is a mistake punisher, it will test your knowledge in close quarter combat as well as mid range combat. If you meet one its like a time for a test, how much you know about the tank, how much you know about YOUR tank, then it will depend on your reaction when facing one. I see a lot of new player from both sides, one don't know how to deal with them, another don't know how to play them. A trick that always works is to count their shots. If you see one happy trigger trick them to fire multiple shot, when they do charge at them, their reloading is so slow after the 3rd shot you can usually squeeze 3 shot to trade against his last reloaded shell. Unfortunately a lot of kids in battle field never count, after his 3rd shot still allow him to hide or camp to reload.

Most of the time I might spend on premium depends on how much threat I feel when I'm fighting them in battle field. So far the highest threat and the ones I hate to face is super pro skorpion G, especially when they are at long range, no matter what tank also might get dmg, and you can't see them, you might waste return fire and your team just too noob to spot them out, which is why in reverse I love my skorpion G so much, long range camping, noob enemy too afraid to scout, MT and HT charge. Boom ..... money drop like chrismas.

on paper stats imo:

260 is better than IS-7 as in: (tank traverse same)

1. Engine power
2. Gun handling
3. no penalty as crew trainer

Basically 257's mobility much better than both of these thicker armored tier X.

Because either how, in tier X games, almost all tier X TDs gonna PEN these 3 tanks anyway, with or without Gold shells.

Might as well as pick a better gun handling + trolling side armors + great mobility to outmaneuver the rest...

I'm 30k left to unlock IS-7 .... I wouldn't be sure which is better unless I have experience in it. Some tank looks good base on stats but very huge difference when in battle field.

How true is that?

I'm not pike nose super pro but I can say I'm above average, every match I block at least 1.5 - 2k dmg and do about the same dmg to enemy, even if my whole team suck.

Rasha ht cupola is tough, small and quite hard to target. But their roof is thin af and given that they have a low profile, a higher tanks can easily aimmfor the roof.

257 is more fun to play indeed, but u need tier X tanks to play in rank mode or clan war.

Im not a unicum, but is7 is a forgiving high tier tanks to play. I always use my is7 and follow MTs. But that is my preferred playstyle.

My guild is super lay back aus folks not rly active in rank or clan war.

IS-7 will have to prove against my 1st tier 10 ....... the E100, also my fav tank, many complain they get easy pen, but when I play with this tank I make enemy front line look like they are shooting at superman.

Hold a position once .... solo 1 man against 5 tier 9 and 10 ...... suck up almost 8k block with almost hp. They where force to spam HE.

The nice thing about E100 is that this days especially in random battle a lot don't have balls and if they see E100 a lot of heavy tank (except maybe maus and IS-7) gonna run away, while the MT and LT are dumb enough to try their luck.

Many complain because turret rotation slow and a lot over angle the face. This tank is tricky to play if you are not aware of enemy tanks, must have good knowledge on which enemy can easy pen your face and which enemy not, then aim to angle to make sure take minimum dmg. In city this tank dominate majority of enemy tank against trade shots and side scrape.

1st tier 10 took me 3 years because I was playing a lot of other tanks and only 1 match per tank in the past. That was totally free to play.

Bought skorpion G and played more match this days take roughly 6 months.

If you are crazy grainder minimum 3 months per tier X

Well in my garage there is only a duplicate of my T-44 and T-32 tank with the FL symbol. There is no way to shift the symbol (FL) to other tank on my garage screen so that means when I press battle my 1st two tank gonna be t-44 and t-32 ....... but I wanna play with other tanks like skorpion g and Ap tiger ..... how to switch to that?

My advice for IS-3 and obj is to focus more on using the tank effectively as a shield first at close distance, once you master that gun comes next. You will know if you are good with the tank when your average block per match is 2k and above ...... for average to above average players.

I have match that block up to 7k dmg just sitting on a choke point with both tanks. Now I'm aiming to Master the IS-7.
