M6A2E1 - The not-as-rare-as-it-used-to-be rarity

[ThomChen114 291]

So it's been nearly a week since April Fool's Day 2017, when WG decided to instead of creating a special funny event, game mode or in-game feature, they thought we'd all have a wonderful hearty laugh at being enticed by their 1-day offer of an "exclusive" and "rare" pixel tank in exchange for a LOT of IRL money.

 

Maybe we'll see Type 59 for sale next April Fool's 2018?

 

Assuming Drumpf hasn't glassed the entire planet over a tweet.

No regrets.  This thing is hilarious to play in the hands of a more experienced player.  Lesser experienced players can't cover all the weakspots/minimize weakspots shown to opponents so yeah it gets burned up pretty quickly for them.

198 pen is a lot more unreliable than I thought but I don't need gold for IS3's or IS6's.  Only for Defenders or heavily armored tier 9s.

With food on this thing I average about 75-80k profit.  If I took food off well..........yeah.  No regrets, good buy, pity if you didn't grab one

don't know the nuances of it yet, but glad I got one while I had the chance. been drooling over this thing for 6 years since I joined RIIIGGHHT as they took it out of the store.

i had no need for it (i have the t34 and t26e5) and it was $90

 

if i had gotten into the game early, i would've brought, but considering the current meta its pretty weak, though not bad either, just too sluggish and very easy to flank from my encounters

You don"t even need to flank it just shoot down the sides at like a sidescrapping angle....I did about 1100 dam to one from over 300m on El Haliuf in the BP firing just AP....and the guy was that funny Blue/Teal color..( must have been experienced......)

And yes I know I am just a plebe at this game

I couldn't justify spending that much money for it when i can just bring out the T26E5 instead (in the same boat as lordawesome). Spent enough money already on the game and i feel it isn't OP enough to dump a shit tonne more money for WG to give me access to some more pixels.

 

So I'll wait for the E-25 and hopefully it doesn't come in some shitty bundle with credits. I need a German TD prem anyways and its cheaper. Hopefully.

their is a tier 7 TD in the tech tree on sale, its not bad, its a more accurate tiger 1 and since there are gold sales and tech tree sales, its much less expensive to get then the E25

Surely you can't be serious, the Steyr is...

i concur, but its quite usable and cheap compared to a $60 bundle the E25 will most likely be thrown in

 

in addition, it has a fully rotating turret, so you won't lose camo if you place yourself well and the high pen means less apcr spam then the E25

90 fucking trump pesos for a digital tank... no thanks. This tank would make my super pershing obsolete as they are both slow, awkward pref mm american tanks with good frontal armor and gun depression (with the mutant having much, much better armor), but for that price I had to pass. I probably would have had a seizure putting in my credit card information if I had tried to buy it.

[ThomChen114 291]

as is common with most tier 8 premium tanks, they seem to be either driven by pro-tankers/livestreamers or inbread potatot wallet warriors

at the very least, thank goodness it's not like when the MM got broken by the Pz 58 Mutz and the crew reward missions that came with it.
