Thank you for this. I tried to follow that huge thread, and it is unreadable (to me).
I don't live WOT, but will play a few games now and again. Despite playing so long, I am at best a mediocre player slugging it out with two 'Merican tanks the T-69 and T-71 trying to make it ultimately to a T-57 where I will probably just continue to be a mediocre player, only with a bigger tank

In on 1.
All that purse swinging in the other thread sucks and detracts from us mediocre players who enjoy talking about WOT (instead of bitching about clans and specific individuals) and trying to learn something. All the angst from grown-ass adult men over an online fucking video game is unbelievable. Thanks for starting (what I sincerely hope will be) a drama free thread. |

Tips on the T37 ..Im running 60ish % WR with 2 barrel bands and probably dont have a clue but here goes Team that looks good T8-T9 Passive spot early... depending on where you are take a few shots if you can get away with it.... Move somewhere else and do it again, if you can poke different places and shoot and get away with it DO IT Mid or late game get more aggressive but still stay safe and shoot like hell Late game I go aggressive in your face circling stuff hunting arty etc... Bad team Im going to be more active shooting stuff from the beginning T6- T7 I have been in 2 T6 matches in this tank in 200+ matches I dont play scout at all... if I light it not intentional most of the time... I run it like a light med scout and shoot everything three in a toon is a WRECKING FORCE I have my old hellcat crew in it and its 5 skills so they help I run Coated Optics, Rammer and Vstab it will hit on the move about 80% of the time...autolock is your friend Hope that helps and BTW if you dont mind being seen with me, My in game name is the same and I should be free to toon up unless Im trying out a recruit or running a tourney... Ill be happy to run some with you. the T37 is my favorite tank. |

Hello guys. I'm in this for drama free version. I have a shitload of tanks through T-10 and more unlocked. If have questions I'll answer best I can. I am a green and blue player, mostly green. My advice is worth what you pay for it.

Just played 2 games...I had the life expectancy of a house fly...
And I don't think I suck that bad, but my two tanks can't really take to many hits before they kaboom, and my autoloading cannons feel like they are shooting jelly beans-despite trying to hit the right places. And then the long reloads of the "clip." Ugh. I do best with both in a sniper role (if I can find a decent position, and then live long enough to get there) lol. |

And that's why I'll never be more than an average player........ Well yea it does.. Its much easier to run a great WN8 on a crap team than it is on a really good team.. We have some players in the clan with WN8s that run Unicum to superunicum and frankly I try to stay away from those guys unless I am trying to learn something from them or pad my win rate... They are great guys and a lot of fun but keeping my WN8 up with them in the same team is freakin HARD and I mean REALLY hard.... the other side is, if you pay attn to what they are doing in the tank they are in youll find really cool spots and maybe learn some other stuff from them so that later you can run the WN8 threw the roof like they do. When youre on a really good team (HAVE TO BE RUNNING XVM here) Try watching or following a guy thats better than you in a similar tank.... learn something get that win and then pad the WN8 on a crap team. TLDNR Hell yea thats how it works |

I play at weird times.
Really trying to make my T69 work for me, but I think I am regretting the tech tree I chose. The tier 10 T57 Heavy Tank has some major weakness, and I am literally creeping to even get to that! 107,000 more experience to go. This game has soaked me for at least $200+ bucks-and I am still not in a tank I "love" lol. Wish they would get some new maps, with a larger scale to really change some of the dynamics or more unusual goals other than capture the flag, protect the flag, etc. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Do "clans" have access to anything different like maps or anything extra? They also can do something called strongholds, where they build up a base that gives them credit and XP multipliers for a couple specified hours each week. The other way to earn gold, and doesn't require clan membership, is to play in tournaments. These are groups of several players who compete against other groups in bracketed playoffs. Winner earns up to 10,000 gold per team mate for all week play, -OR- 5,000 (?) gold per team mate for weekend play. I may be a little off on this description, but you get the general idea. These tourneys are generally a different tier each week ranging from 2 - 10.

Once you do find that tank, WOT will nerf it......guaranteed.  And then you'll develop a "love-hate" relationship with it.

I just got the E5 yesterday and have only played a handful of games in it. I've always heard about tanks that are "comfortable" to play. The E5 is the first tank that makes me understand just what the hell that means. It's a very well rounded vehicle. Nothing truly exceptional but all together? Its fantastic. Long winded way of saying that you might think about going up either of those two lines (i.e. American Heavies and German Heavy Mediums). |

Yeah, I found out about the OMC modpack in one of the threads on here. It has everything, they are quick to update the mods in the pack to compatible versions whenever WOT has a new update, and it is so easy to use. I'll never go back to installing them individually. |

My crew is fully 100/110% and just started rocking their special skills, and now that they are past 60-70% my tank has become significantly more deadly in it's ability to hit critical parts in the enemy.
It still lacks a lot of punch and has a slow reload, but it still seems to do more damage now per 4 round clip. Also, I can kill a Sherman with just 4 rounds (usually). Further, I am running the 100 octane gas, and it seems to give the tank some more pep and turret speed (just a smidge though). Also I upgraded the suspension via the enhanced torsion bars, and I have been much less likely to lose a track. Now with my crew at 90+ percent special skills, the tank is a bit more of a threat to be reckoned with. I keep my Russkie Premium I-S6 as my "money maker" and it routinely gets $20-40K in silver per game; I do not use gold to convert experience, I dump all experience back into the crew and use it to fund my endeavors with my T69 (which costs a lot to repair and rearm). I am now 32K away from my T54 Tier 9 tank; so I keep on grinding

I finally made it to the T54E Medium.
Essentially a jump in 400 HP to 1750, a slightly bigger tank (slower turret traverse and speed); the biggest advantage is the 5 round drum for the stock 90mm potato gun, 1 more round over the 69. My crew took a slight hit in experience when they transferred, so I am building them to 100% again. I will be with this tank for a looooong time before I can gain the experience for the 120mm 4 shot cannon, and then the 'Merican T57 heavy so I popped the $$$ for gold and added permanent camo for dessert and forest. Maybe I will add winter too? IDK I added auto fire extinguisher but really want the 100 octane, but it sucks up 2500 (on sale) in silver, and this thing is already a cash hog to run-but it lacks "pep" and the next engine upgrade is another small fortune. Maybe I will dump the first aid kit and go for it anyway, since I had driving a light armored slug. Bigger, better, faster has always been my motto
It costs roughly $20K+ silver to repair too

Now it is like I can't ever seem to win a game with this tank.
I wonder if it because it is a tier 9 and I am getting grouped differently? IDK. Edit: just cleaned up $28K silver, led the team at 3 kills, and 5400 experience (non first game bonus). I am sure now I will lose the next 20 games though
