HEATing some poor loving tier 4 or 5 medium tank will get you there.

Trip Report KV85    Let's hope the IS can make me just as happy as this thing. Also the 100m on the 85 is seriously broken.

Should I be shooting HEAT all the time in this?

Anyone interested in doing me a little favor? Download this replay and just watch my M43 from the unlocked camera view: http://wotreplays.eu/site/3293994?secret=32096e0ac00a7665211f2e49e576c542 The "friendly" M12 does the "use your gun to block a friendly arty's shot and force a TK" thing, which I've seen before, but in that battle, and every time I watch that replay on my system, even without mods, the M12 disappears near the beginning and doesn't reappear until after we both die.  I can't tell if it's just on my system or if this dude actually has a "+2 Cloak of Invisibility" for his tanks.  Hellsau posted:I really liked the 3002M, I hated the Panther and Panther 2, and the E50 is fantastic but had a horrible stock grind. Now the E50's stock grind appears to be perfectly reasonable with the long 88 after the DPM buff and being unlockable on the Panther 2, the Panther gets actual good damage output, and the Panther 2 is probably going to suck still unless the long 88 turns out to be good on it. The Panther 2 had major module damage issues while being unexceptional and mostly just worse than the FCM for me - I don't know if a comically large gun will make it enjoyable enough for me to farm a T95E2. The 3002M is just the Babby Panther, not bad but nothing special. I liked the Panther because of that ridiculous needle gun, and didn't enjoy the Panther 2 due to the miserable gun handling. All told I've grinded the Panther 2 twice, the Indien once, and now I'm on the TVP VTU, which now that I think about it is more like the Indien, but still, that's almost the same tank 4 times through now.... And of course Wargaming felt the need to buff the goddamn 3001D, which is totally unnecessary but I'm not complaining because it's one of my favorites.  Michaellaneous posted:KV 122, Krupp Steyr Waffleträger and Pz2J on sale. Uh, the Pz2J is the OP-as-gently caress tier 3 that they almost never sell. Mesadoram posted:Fake Edit: lololol @ the T28, T28 Proto and T95 speed boosts. I liked the Proto, now it seems like it won't be that bad. I'm going to be finished with the T95 before the buff it, but to be honest...it hasn't been that bad!  ROFLburger posted:My TK policy is as follows: I commonly do #2 & 3, but you're not supposed to get yourself banned from the game. That's basically like letting pubbies get a free pass.

Uh, HEAT doesn't do any more damage to open tops, you're thinking of HE for that purpose.

serious gaylord posted:I ground up to that shitbox 3 years ago and have been enjoying the gently caress out of it after coming back and finding it got super buffed. Regularly had games of 4000+ damage bounced just by driving forwards at enemy tanks. It sounds bad that they're dropping the lower plate, but they're also removing the upper plate weakspots and hugely buffing the side so.... I don't suppose they buffed the 4502 ausf A, aka the Best German Medium Tank, at any point in the past year?

Hencoe posted:I have damned myself. There was a Grille 15 in A4 on Mines that was spotted stationary and then went dark. I was on the center hill, Exia was on the western island, both of us in our 183s. We both blindshot and hit the Grille - it showed up later with 400something HP. Any other TD would have done more with less work, even AP from the 183. HE(SH) is still garbage. The only use for the 183 is to punish tier eights and nines for choosing to play World of Tanks. Atomizer posted:Anyone interested in doing me a little favor? Download this replay and just watch my M43 from the unlocked camera view: Artillery still has the 500ish meter draw distance limit. If you're in arti view 600m away WoT doesn't render tanks near you because Wargaming.

E Equals MC Hammer posted:Now hellsau, theoretically speaking, what would constitute the best dual boxed arty setup? Going from tier 2 all the way to tier 10. American line x2? You'll want to do one arti bot on one box, and one medium tank on another (presumably the E 50 line) and program the bot to focus on tanks in its platoonmates' vicinity so that you're not sharing XP with pubbies. Doing two arti at once would take forever to get enough experience to get to tier 10. Artillery repair costs are also exorbitant so whenever your team just folds and you lose 30k credits on both accounts it's going to feel real bad. Note that Wargaming does not appreciate more than one login from a specific IP and will ban you readily for doing it, but just say it's you and Atomizer's brother playing on two different computers and you'll be fine if you're not doing anything too suspicious. Atomizer's brother really gets around, he just loves making new referral accounts.

So.. these leaked notes. Is this balance 2.0, or some interim thing? I thought I had seen some video somewhat recently where they were just getting to like tier 7s or 6s in sandbox. Meanwhile, AW is about to release their 2.0 next month that includes the death of spgs (direct fire only).

It was tier 10 only last time I tried to help with that, and then they just left the Sandbox to rot for a month and didn't bother pushing any new changes so everyone got bored and the Sandbox queue died. e: welp I got grandfathered into the second Sandbox iteration, trip report tonight or tomorrow.

Make sure you play an arty on the sandbox. Even the 261 has difficulty hitting targets because of the dispersion changes. It is an exercise in frustration.

No botting here, just gonna use a bit of isboxer to do a 2 arty gimmick. Talked it over on discord and we decided that USA is the way to go.
