Trying to git gud grinding Cromwell and Comet

[raulz0r 6]

So as the title says I am trying to improve my game playing on the Cromwell and later on in the Comet which from what I seen, seems to be 2nd degree cousin of the Cromwell, I need some advice on which role do they excel on. Basically a How To for idiots.

Found Comet on the First page, and Crommie on the Second page of this very forum.  LIteracy and effort are your friends.

Maybe he wants advice on how to play them in today's super heavy meta and not from a 4 year old thread...or maybe he's lazy....who knows.   I'll bite.

Use vents, optics and rammer for equipment plus prioritize view range/camo over other skills because when you're in t8 games (cromwell) you're essentially a scout.  You can get around 440 on the move view range once you have BIA and both view range skills maxed.  The dpm can be awesome at times but it does require you to sit still to actually hit stuff.

 Early game dont trade shot for shot....try to get 1 shot off then back in cover....save those hit points for later in the match when there's more room to move around and you can put your view range and camo to good use.   Secondly always be moving around....this means if you go to one flank and its all armored targets that you cant really pen easily then go somewhere else....you have the speed to relocate if need be.   Last but not least try to work with your team to gang up on enemy tanks.   If you see them eat a shot from a tank that's by themselves and has a long reload dont be afraid to peek and get a few shots in.  Learn other tanks reloads etc etc same stuff thats been said on here time and time again...it will make a much better player on other tanks as well.  Its the difference in getting 2-3 shots in for their 1 vs trading 1 for 1 and most tanks will beat the cromwell/comet in that regard.   Play it like a light tank and you should do well.

Remember that Comet gets significantly better with pure goldspam
