World of Tanks

[Torenico]

Both T29, Hellcat and T18 are OP, not at the same OP Level but still OP.

T40 had ridiculous view range that had to be nerfed.

[THeTA0123]

Plenty of russian OP tanks that still arent nerfed like that. Same story since when i played this game before

[Torenico]

Such as?

KV-1S, okay, ISU? I don't know, probably... right, what else?

[Battlefieldfan45 (CroPanzer)]

I don't think ISU is OP, it's still nice, has it's pros and cons, unlike the romulan Borsig which can cloak

[Torenico]

There are few Soviet tanks that are truly OP, which stands way above others.

KV-1S, COULD BE, it's the same as the FV 215b 183, it's only OP when it fires, when actually, when it hits something.

A Soviet tank that stands above others is the T-54 which is ridiculous, Obj. 268 OP days are long gone even more with the nerf and the removal of special camo to TD class.

Soviet Tier 10 mediums are great yes, but in clan wars we still prefer batchats, in fact, T-62s, Obj.140s are nothing but to support the BC.

After that, I don't see any other soviet tank being ridiculously OP as some people claim.

Some people claim WG actually makes Soviet tanks be superior to everyone else, well I'd love to see how the IS-7 or IS-4 (Talk about getting a massive nerf... heh) is superior to the T110E5, how IS-3 just makes 110 obsolete, how IS makes T29 look like a piece of shit, how ISU makes Rhm. look underpowered

I love to ask a question to these people, if WG loves their SOVIET TONKS so much, why does the WTE100 even exist?.

[Battlefieldfan45 (CroPanzer)]

I'd actually take an IS7 (maybe even 4) against an E5 

[ajappat]

Yup, I think IS-7 is better than E5 unless it's bad terrain for IS-7's worse gun depression. I guess te main difference is massive alpha and chance to actually bounce some shots even in gold ammo filled CW.

It's funny though, even if I think russians in general are not OP, that's what we use a lot in CW. 50/50 bachats and russian meds, often group of IS-7's with maybe 1 or 2 E5's to bring that depression and verastility into battle. As supports we used to have 268 and now we use 263 + brit heavy or autoloader heavy.

That's abviously just crude generalization and not fitting to some special maps at all, but it's quite russian biased isn't it  .

I'm sad they will nerf the Tiger and I don't really understand the changes. It's mobility was completely destroyed in the last patch in exchange for a massive DPM. Now they make the gun more inaccurate, take away HP and nerf the accuracy of the gun while turning the painfully slow turrett? Why is that? We already have the Tiger II as useless tank after it, no need to do the same on tier 7 (I used to like the King Tiger but damn, what a piece of trash it has become).
It gets module damage with every hit it receives already and is a giant brick without armour (yeah, I know sidescraping bla bla, but that turrett still is made out of butter, especially the roof).

I rebought the M26 pershing 4 days ago, and i first had 70K exp, now i reached 110 already. I also had about 1150 gold left from events and stuff, got 40K free EXP

Cant wait to get the M46 Patton. I hope its worth it

[Eat Uranium]

The patton requires the ~20k xp tracks to be able to mount the 90mm from the Pershing, and a further ~60xp to mount the 105mm.  Enjoy...

[THeTA0123]

used the 1150 gold

i have now 70k Free EXP 

[Torenico]

Tier IX has the worst stock grind, about 114.000 exp needed to unlock the tracks, turret and 130mm on the WZ-111 1-4, you just CAN'T go there without free exp, it's brutal... the positive thing is that the WZ stock is not bad, the 100mm is a fantastic DPM gun.

There are a few stock grinds that aren't that bad, Foch being one hehe, but overall the majority looks terrible.



Bought Pz. IV Schmalturm yesterday, just for the lolz, well I can actually give it a good use and train my future E-50M and Leopard 1 crew in it, better crew trainer than the Pzkpfw 739 (f) for sure. I could have opted for the Panther/M10 but, I kinda wanted the Schmalturm because it looks badass, and I miss it from the times of beta...

Actually, I grinded the wz-111 stock. No tracks, no turret, no gun, just buying and grinding till the next tank. Works perfectly. The 113 only costs 200 K xp, which is still cheaper then getting the fully upgraded Wz-111, so why bother ?

[THeTA0123]

Well, M46 patton tank unlocked. She has the second engine, second gun and the tracks. Vertical stabilizer, rammer and Ventilation. Crew it at 100% thanks to the very cheap gold training.

The 90mm T15 is far more accurate on the M46 then on the M26 pershing. And the gun reloads in 6.42 secs compared to 7.13 seconds on the M26. Mobility is also slightly better (17.7HP compared to 16.7) so i cant wait to get that top engine installed

Great tank. I'm frikkin loving it!

Now comes the grind towards the 105mm gun

[Eat Uranium]

Coated optics is considered better than Vents, especially for a tank with 400m view range and no camo.  You want to be spotting people at at least the same distance they spot you.
