TheFluff posted:The 30.02M isn't actually bad, it's just completely overshadowed by the other T6 mediums. The Easy Eight has even better gun handling and depression plus sicknasty DPM, the Cromwell is super fast and the T-34-85 is a better generalist. The 3002M is just kinda bumbling and fat and doesn't readily lend itself to the kind of hypercarry games the others are capable of. I sold it (kept the other three, although in their premium incarnations). the 3002M has really good penetration and accuracy on a mobile platform and is better at putting shots on target at any sort of range beyond "close". the e8's gun handling is only better until you get to a range where the m1a2 accuracy starts really hurting, and the cromwell's gun handling can charitably be described as subpar. the t-34-85 is overpowered anyways

Bort Bortles posted:I've been awful at even getting doubles in my tier9 E-50 since I started playing again....any advice on how to make it "godly"? It's the same as the other German mediums, except the gun is a laser pointer. You play from the second line, but you get the benefits of great pen, accuracy, and shell velocity. That, and the armour lets you bully lower tier tanks. I just play it like I play any other medium. Except it doesn't scout well, due to poor camo.

You forgot the E50 class secret weapon. The last shell is the tank itself.

rex rabidorum vires posted:I re-bought the M6 a month ago to replay it a bit and maybe fix the stats. It actually surprisingly good. ~6.5 reload for the US 90 at tier 6. Even without a vert stab the tank is very accurate and in tier 8s the APCR still wrecks everything. Sure it's big and squishy, but the small turret, with really good DPM and handling make it very dangerous in good hands. I'm in the same boat though with the 8-bit E5 crew sitting in the T14 and now the domination crews taking up all my barracks space I need to buy some tanks to dunk them in. M6 is the only tank I have with 3 marks of excellence, the gun on it just feels perfect to me. Fast firing, really accurate and decent alpha. the gold pen is really high for some reason which means it's still competitive in tier 8 games. I'm 180k exp away from the obj 140 now and it's the on-track but I'm not sure I have the stomach to grind that out in just under two weeks. I wish it came out a few weeks later since I really need that discount on it.

I rarely play tier6 and when I do, it is in a toon. And for that I have a T-34-85/Easy 8/FV304 + whatever line I am currently grinding. I have plans to rebuy the KV-2 for obvious and hilarious reasons.

As soon as you find out how to hide the M6's gigantic hull the tank becomes a beast. I hated it for a long time because i simply couldn't find out how to use a fat,slow unarmored tank until goons told me to forget about depending on its armor, just hide and shoot.

Are the tactics much different from using the T1? I don't know why or how but that tank just absolutely clicks with me and it's the only tank I feel no poo poo good at playing.

It's almost exactly the same, except it doesn't feel like the same tank gimped up one tier - if that makes any sense.

It's a faster T1 that can pen anything it sees frontally for more than twice the damage, so it just feels right.

Bort Bortles posted:I dont feel that you can play it like any other medium because it is too big, slow, and easy to spot. I just feel like it is made of paper, slow, and clunky. The E-50 has the same camo as the Patton or the Cent, but none of the accuracy/bloom issues. It's got better armour than either, except for the magic Cent turret. The trick is that you will probably be spotted in the E-50, but you don't need to expose yourself very long at all to get a penetrating shot. So long as you are making GBS threads out damage, you should be helping your team. Are you having trouble with any other tanks? The gameplay has changed a fair bit since two years ago, especially for tanks that are "armoured".
