    Hi fellow tankers! Everyone nows the reputation of the Heat-54, ' its OP ', 'heatspammer tank' are popular opinions about this tank. But what if you take a different approach. I am anti premium ammo, before you start whining , let me explain. I am gonna keep it short. Gold ammo breaks the balance of this game, it shifts the meta and makes certain tanks unbalanced, either OP or useless. It also changed the mentality of wot players , they feel 'entitled' to pen everything. Now, I dont like gold, but its in the game, so I use it. What grinds my gears is people saying soem tanks are shit w

    I agree the Viets were handled too softly to begin with. Here follows what i believe may have happened: He figured he needed to treat them nice and entice them to stay, so they could spend some money and make his budget look good. Of course, no investigation was done as to why the Vietnamese server was closed down, so he didn't exercise due diligence and protect those customers who were paying. Only over time when the figures were coming in from accounts did he realise that the Viets were actually making money off the back of WG and doing anything they possibly could to ge

    Lol the offishu forums. Perhaps we need some missions (emissions?) to liven things up? Here's some ideas: The Incinerator - Receive multiple warnings from different WG representatives for the same post. With Honours: Second warning is from Tan. Sustained Fire – Receive three warnings for three different posts within 10 days. With Honours: Thread is personally locked by Tan. Trump made me do it – Receive a warning for racially based comments regarding Australians or New Zealanders, without referring to any other country or race, even indire

    Tier 5: "Haha, look at this guy with 1k games pushing Lakeville valley in a T-50! His ignorance of the basic characteristics and flow of the game is still delightfully amusing even if a minor detriment to the team's success as he is still innocently inexperienced!" Tier 10: "HOLY FUCKING SHIT WHY THE FUCK IS THIS GUY WITH 30K GAMES DRIVING INTO THE FUCKING VALLEY IN A 13 90?!?!?!!!111" *PUNCHES A BABY INTO THE SUN*

    Let me provide some insights into being a noob, since apparently, once you reach purple, it's all forgotten and everyone is a 2 brain-cell, mouth-breathing, can't-count-their-balls-and-get-the-same-answer-twice, Westboro Baptist church, vote-for-Trump, moron. Note: I'm a purple in other games past and present (TF2, DAOC, Tribes, etc) so I know high level play. I've played and called on comp teams. In other words, I get it. I've been in your position in other games, just not in WoT, yet. 1. The Vision mechanic makes sense on paper, but applying it in-game is something entirely diffe

    Its a circle jerk where you don't have to reach very far and everyone blows their explosive load every 18-20 seconds. (seriously where is @Rexxie I could not put in more double entendres if I tried, and if I know one thing, its that he loves a good tank circle jerk and a good dick joke)

    Whether Jon is deceased or not, his absence isn’t going to slow the cascade of cataclysmic events plaguing Westeros. Take Lord of Light priestess Melisandre, who expresses her crisis of faith to Ser Davos, one of the only other survivors of Stannis Baratheon’s foolhardy pursuit of the Iron Throne. Meanwhile, the followers of the High Sparrow have clearly lost their patience with Cersei, who responds to their promise of violence by saying, “I choose violence.” Last but not least, warg-in-training Bran Stark has an up close-and-personal encounter with the Night’s King that clearly surp

    Hi all! I'm a long-time player, having played since beta and a long-time lurker of this fabulous forum. I lost interest in this game for a while before the first airing of Girls und Panzer, which renewed my interest in tanks. World of Tanks will always be an important game to me because of the continual learning curve and all the great IRL and online friends I've made! I only played clan wars for the first campaign with NTR and learned just how hard it is to be competitive, especially at tier 10 (which I had, and still have, not much experience in). As of now I reside in my dear casual cl

    That's what I was alluding to. The OP is using a full-AP loadout, and with the most recent series of armor buffs to tier 8-10 heavies, 201 pen is just anemic.

    Talking purely from a statistical standpoint, every source I can find clearly shows the AT-2 as stupidly overpowered. I think the introduction of the Japanese heavies hit it quite hard, but christ, look at this curve: Like the rest of the UK TD branch, it feels like the AT-2 was simply forgotten. It's flat out one of the best T5s for 95% of the playerbase, and even for unicums I'd only put it as the third or fourth best, behind the KV-1S, O-I Ex, and mayhaps KV-1.

    It's not that the tank is "Shit" without gold. it's just so much better with it. When i'm forced into fighting heavies. (E100's, now E5's) why should i not load gold? I just never understood the mentality that we should limit ourselves, knowing when to use which ammo type is a skill.

    ARAM is actually super fun though since there isn't an emphasis on farming minions over and over again, you just get straight into brawls from the word go. Wouldn't say it's like Rampage since people do actually play it too

    One example of WG's fine balance would be T54 with AP versus O-Ho. T54 rolls 201 mm on average, O-Ho is 200 mm all around the front.

    And with 220-230mm AP and the current gun handling that tank would be fine, if thed 'd remove the HEAT completly and WG starts to do something about corridor meta.

    1350 for 1 mark, 1900 for 2, 2500 for 3 are what vbaddict has. Holds relatively true in my experience. Recall that involves assisted damage as well, and the T49 is pretty good at spotting and really good at tracking. With optics I don't see how getting less than 600 assisted on average would be your baseline, so subtract that from the mark DPG thresholds and you've got the direct you need to do. HOWEVER, the T49 isn't about tryhard dpg whoring, its about hilarious unexpected game ruining pens on your opponents and the lulz that follow.

    The E-50

    Monkey and one other reacted to Rexxie for a topic

    High HP, decent armour, one of the best guns of any T9 HT/MT is why it's loved. It's sluggish in a firefight or up hill, but during the part of the match where mobility is most important (getting to the front lines) the tank will be moving quite fast. Like the T-54, the accuracy/handling/high alpha/high dpm combination on a high HP, well armored T9 med makes it mow through lower tiers without a care in the world. While the pen might become an issue against T10s, it's still very dangerous. It is just the E-50M's gun with AP/APCR instead of APCR/HEAT, after all. T110E5 vs E-50 is pretty muc

    I used to believe that a KELLY platoon gave a team about 5% chance of winning. I'd call them out during the battle countdown if they were on the other team, "haha KELLY platoon we win!" and stuff like that, and we would pretty much always win. My KELLYmetric™ is more accurate than XVM win chance imo.

    It's a consequence of WG's many shitty design decisions, really. Artillery creates corridors/camps because you need a safe zone of some sorts to not be destroyed (on Prok, that means don't get spotted), the massive render distance compared to map size leads to never wanting to cross any open ground and the weird camo/spotting system, combined with generally bad map design, means that you can't even be sure which bush the invisible guy shoots from. I mean, let's be brutally honest and ignore our general top player tendencies here: We're now complete shitters, new 45%'ers for the grinder an

    What extra pen? 330 = 330. But yeah, I think it isn't - it gets worse dispersion when moving the turret and after firing on top of slower reload(I mean E50 and Patton with ~220 pen get way better gun handling), BUT it gets faster shell speed.
