All for what Seems like a avg  tanks at best.  I just gonna get the is5 see how it goes.  I'm not encouraged as I saw tommeno f simp in one the other day on windstrom w it and after the fight i ran the replay; i wanted to see a good player in one.  He shot 10.  Hit w 5 and pennd  2.  Lots of 9s in the fight.


The IS5 is good when you connect and makes a metric shit-ton of monies. If you're doing tier 8 strongholds, run your IS5 for the big payday.

Problem is the connecting part. Contact hits are good, but distance shots are purely in the realm of luck. That tank desperately needs a buff in the accuracy department, hell the entire game does to tell the truth.

But the IS5 is the worst offender of horrible accuracy. What's particularly troublesome is that the damned thing shoots APCR as its standard round, which ordinarily would be great, but since you're, honestly, shooting a 20 gauge slug out of a 12 gauge barrel, you can't pick apart enemies or shoot specifically for weak spots, and that leads to you throwing gold at them in frustration, which you'll probably miss with anyway.

All that said, it is probably going to be the best tier 8 prize tank out of all of them unless the KV4tress is the shit and a bowl of piss.

Of all the prize tanks I have...

T23e3 - fun in on tier battles, but is nigh worthless down a tier. Needs 7-7 tiering because it just doesn't have enough gun..
KV220 - Corny but fun.
Obj907 - This one is a hoot. Hands down worth every moment spent screwing around in a campaign. It's a prize tank that is regularly seen in CW. That says a lot.
IS5 - See above - An accuracy buff would bring this inline with everything else and make it not nearly unplayable.
KV5 - It's a KV5
T95/Chieftain - Basically a Pershing with a tumor that everyone shoots at.
T95e2 - Another Pershing but this time without interesting armor that the M48 has and HEAT as gold. It's got *THE* turret off the M48 but less armor which makes no sense. Needs the full turret stats of the M48.
T95e6 - Imagine a slow AMX30B with the T110E5's gun and slightly better but still laughable armor. Needs APCR as standard or be about 50% faster and it might be playable.

Chieftain isn't terrible. It's "okay" for a reward tank. They aren't going to give away an OP tank for a campaign reward.

I like my chieftain. It's about as useful as balls after a vasectomy in a pub match though. For SH and team battles I like it though.

Yea, he's good if you wanna geek on it.

I think I might be an outlier because I don't know shit about tank stats. I just know that this one pens that one if I shoot HEAT, so I do.

It rewarded cheaters and match rigging. It was so impossible to get that was the only way to get it. They have such a badge of shame you never see them anymore. It's worse playing it solo than anyone soloing with a top ten clan tag. They get focused and harassed relentlessly

Nope.

It was a rigging reward tank that only the Hispanic clans have, the fuckers got away with it Scott free, and even got to keep the damned thing. Those of us in top clans were told that we would be permabanned if we were caught rigging for that tank.

It was like fighting a modern T72 when the stupid thing first came out so they gave a token nerf to the gun. It's still hugely overpowered to the point you almost have to shoot gold at it just to pen, and even then it's 50/50. The sitters who rigged for it literally have sub 1000 WN8's, and ~45% win rates overall, but somehow have 65-70% win rates in the T22 over several hundred battles.

They needed to nerf it into obscurity or remove it altogether and possibly ban everyone who has one.

I really am at a loss for what the fuck is going on today. The teams are bad, as is expected. But it's something else. Arty rounds literally flying outside the post code they're aimed into. My T110E3 bounced THREE rounds off the machine gun port of a 4502B that was facehugging me. My M4A3E2 derp gun hit a Cromwell with HE for 0 damage in the side.



Some shit is seriously fucked today, and it ain't the windowlicking players.

Holy crap, I played against him too. His name was panzermarine300 or something like that, I looked at his stats too and 34k of his battles were in that tank. Of course any other tank he has 44% win rates in but like 60% in that Pz. I was in my T-80 and couldn't pen anywhere with gold, even at the back of the hull and turret

Even Quicky said the t-22 was extraordinarily difficult to get...unless you rigged.  Even if you don't like him, he is a very skilled player who knows his shit.

Some weirdness about being instantly shot by tanks facing another direction - then when I hit them (which bounces) they instantly turn and fire with a penetrating hit.  I play a lot of TDs and I know how to be invisible.  Enemy tank shouldn't have spotted me before my shot went out.

I don't think the juice is worth the squeeze with mentor, recon would be better.  For heavies I think camo is a waste and should only be taken if the other perks need 100% to work.  The bonus from snap shot will come into play more often than DT or deadeye.  Off road is important as it will come into play any time you are driving on anything other than roads if your tank has poor ground resistances - see tanks,gg for stats.  Clutch braking is useful too if your traverse is poor and heavies generally have poor traverse.  Safe stowage is far more useful than firefighting.

Camo is fun, but not really on a heavy. You're just not hiding enough, and if you are in a Russian heavy, you shouldnt be, and if you are anyway, you're not doing it right. Russian heavies are meant to be right up in the face of other heavies trading shots.

Deadeye rocks, and I'd take that over camo on your gunner. Designated target is a scout function, but I guess I could see the benefit of having someone spotted a little longer. I'd rather have snap shot, however, especially on a Russian heavy that probably has terrible gun handling anyway.

And for God's sakes, get safe stowage!!! Since you have all those interesting skills, you might want to think about the survivor trifecta. Sixth sense, safe stowage, preventative maintenance. You won't get racked nearly as often, and this counts towards your rack taking a hit, but not being under 50% module HP so you're not racked into slow reload, you won't catch fire nearly as often, and since you have firefighting on all your guys like you do, fires will go out fast. Lastly sixth sense is the single most important skill in the game.

The ability to piss off an entire enemy team is one of the high points of the Bishop and FV304.

I may only do like 200HP per shot but its almost always a crew or module killer, which is good for lolz. I like this tank

It was like fighting a modern T72 when the stupid thing first came out so they gave a token nerf to the gun. It's still hugely overpowered to the point you almost have to shoot gold at it just to pen, and even then it's 50/50. The sitters who rigged for it literally have sub 1000 WN8's, and ~45% win rates overall, but somehow have 65-70% win rates in the T22 over several hundred battles.

They needed to nerf it into obscurity or remove it altogether and possibly ban everyone who has one.

T22 med seems plenty OP-not sure if it was a campaign reward tank.

Um, I believe I helped plenty of American +55% win-rate, top-clan people get that tank, or get closer to getting that tank.

I was there and saw a lot of the rigging.  Anyone who logged in, solo, for a time period ... especially on the West server where riggers' chances for all being in the same match were higher ... was there and saw it all.  Seemed some smaller groups and some very large groups doing it.  Usually there seemed to be a 'do not shoot' the solo people order or general feel going on - I'm guessing to either not allow us to get specific goals (like damage blocked or something), or not to anger too many of us into reporting.

All the tanks sitting in the middle sure were easy to rack-up damage on if it was a damage mission I had going, that's for sure.  I was never going to earn the tank since I wasn't 'in' on the rigging, but I believe I did earn some Silver coins (give or take, but I think I ended up ahead after doing all the battles / missions I could do with the amount of time I had, and without having a clan - I can tell you that I never saw ARFcom guys in those matches - rigging it for me).

Last battle of the campaign for Claws is over. we have 76 tankers over 2900 fame points.



I'm going to have a couple drinks and go to bed.

Look at Cabra, ACA, 404, R7, etc and tell me how many of each of those clan's members have the T22 Med.

There's piles of them.

Now tell me how many players on SIMP, MO, Otter, and G have that tank.
