Duzzy Funlop posted:Since I've pretty much settled on the first two Two questions: a) I'm grinding both (everything) right now and the Swedes definitely have it easier when it comes to bad tanks. b) The Skoda T40 is a bit poo poo. It can shine when top tier on a map that isn't just a series of dumbass loving corridors, but MM and Crayon-Chewers Mapping Inc. make drat sure this is a rare occasion. In many regards it's something of a gimped VK30.01P.

Secret Confessions of a Stat Badder - Day Fourteen I swear this is an anomaly:  What is it about smug arseholes in this game? You almost feel a bit of sympathy for them when they fall for the 'poor widdle me' line.  Except this account of the in game conversation isn't entirely accurate. There was the kick off with the passive aggressive bs about leaving the spawn and then they blamed me for them dying. I pointed out that this was exactly the sort of crap that dead players spew in chat to rationalise their pathetic failure(s). We went on to win (damnit) so  http://www.noobmeter.com/player/na/Snub_the_Rooster/1013822921/ (Not a reroll, nah uh. Also no stat padding going on here). -/- Meanwhile in try hard land:   What the gently caress do you have to do to get mastery in one of these tanks? Both of these are only 2nd class. The Tiger II in particular was against tier Xs and is a really hard tank to get right (imho). But that doesn't stop the arsehats:  Aimbot? And if I'm really bad at this game then:http://www.noobmeter.com/compareplayers/na/all/Negative_Nick/Kill_Me_For_Gold Yeah. How about a whole bussel of 'shut the gently caress up' douche nozzle? -/- Recommendations for the AMX 50 100 equipment load out?

 Cartoon posted:Secret Confessions of a Stat Badder - Day Fourteen I hate to say this dude, but...you're failing at failing. Exhibit A:   <40% WR in several tier 10s after hundreds of battles. This, my friend, is a bot [or statbadder.]But wait, there's more!  36% after several thousand battles!!! I think we were all a little generous in our predictions of how bad the worst shitter bot could be.  Granted, it accomplished this from tons of pref 8 and tier 10 gameplay, meaning it had a greater impact on its games, but still. It's mind-boggling how Wargaming can continue to let botters ruin thousands of games for its actual players. Cartoon posted:What is it about smug arseholes in this game? You almost feel a bit of sympathy for them when they fall for the 'poor widdle me' line. I find it interesting how the shittiest of the shitters have no idea what a reroll is, and they can't seem to recognize any other shitters let alone themselves.

Had a guy calling me out yesterday when I was grinding the crusader sp since I was accusing him for losing us the game on Malinovka due to him doing an early spot in his T92. Sure he got 3k spotting, but he lost us the game by dying and losing us the spotting game to a 57f who proceeded to spot our entire team, who by the way never left base due to the early spot. This is of course standard. But the he starts asking whether I have done my service ( yes, 20 years ago, who the gently caress cares) ever changed a tire (yes of course) or road wheel. Like that has any meaning on someone being bad at tanks. Best part was him calling me a snot faced teenager and the after battle conversation when I pointed out that in his most played tank (FCM50t) he had 39% (48% overall). In other news, tier 10 grand battles kinda rock and they seem to suffer less from snowballing losses due to higher team numbers, tier10 damage and longer ranges.

The weird thing about Discord (that I noticed today) is that it's not letting me assign roles (had a problem with another user earlier) but I had to personally send them an invite first to get it to work. You can try messaging me directly and maybe it'll be easier for me to auth you.

Sorry if I'm still a bit dense on this. So people are retraining the sisters in arm perk to sixth sense, and then starting up with whatever normal skill they'd want to train up after that, basically? And can you pretty much retrain that as often as you want while keeping their bonus characteristics? As in "I'm retraining my female commander to sixth sense, and all others to camo, and then maybe switching back to sisters of steel or whatever once the third skill completes?"

Nope, they come with BiA plus a "+" for their second skill. The BiA is static (or rather, I've never bothered to see if it can be trained to something else), and instead of setting the first selected skill to train from 0% (like normal), it's instantly 100%. Hence, female crewmembers start with BiA + 100% in their first skill, hence people saying they're getting "free Sixth Sense." The third skill starts at 0%, but if it works like the Berlin Quintet crews, that third skill trains as if it were the *first* skill, so in practically no time, you've got a three skill character. Given how valuable Sixth Sense is, it makes the most sense to train the female crewmembers as Commanders, especially on lines you might not be veteran in.

So they get BiA and another free skill that doesn't count towards the cost for progressing skills? That's extremely freaking good.

Some idiot in a type4 heavy finally got me HT-12. He was firing HEAT at my turret  Really starting to like the Ausf. B again, the only problem is people with gold penetrating the turret.I can also recommend the current on track event, it's about 100-120 games for a free premium. 250k xp is really not that much, bonus points for getting a lot of grand battles in the Maus.

Hold on, so female crew members essentially get BiA, one more instant 100% perk, AND THEN the next skill you train is treated like their first skill? Holy poo poo. I thought they got BiA and the next skill they start was treated like their first

That's so loving dope that I kinda want a whole crew like that. Also, I'm currently laughing my rear end off, because I couldn't figure out why I was missing one female crew member to redeem. I had all StugIV campaign missions completed, but only had four female members from it. Then I remembered that I assigned one after finishing my first campaign set, because I thought I had to claim and assign them immediately. So I apparently assigned her to my Strv fm/21. Yes, the Swedish tier 1 tank. I figured I had dismissed them, because I couldn't find them in my barracks. I guess I was just too dumb to select either unassigned crew or sort by nations.  /edit: Okay, gently caress, apparently I also have a female driver for the tier 1 swedish tank. Now my explanation makes no more sense, because I have one female crew member too many.  /edit 2: Uh, I apparently have a full female swedish crew trained for the Strv fm/21, soooo I'm assuming everyone got one? Because now I'm just confused as all gently caress. Duzzy Funlop fucked around with this message at 13:53 on Dec 30, 2017 |

Yeah this was last year's Christmas special reward, promoting the Swedish tree in its entirety. I still haven't reassigned them to something else, but the Leo needs a crew right now so maybe they can make that thing a tolerable grind.

The armor is pretty much worthless because it's not particularly strong against gold ammo or tier 9/10 regular ammo and it also has plenty of weak spots that are actual weak spots. But yeah premium tier 8 Maus to go with their tech tree tier 8 Maus.

I've now seen several tanks get under Mauerbrecher's guns because the frontally-mountet turret gives smaller tanks a bunch of extra blind angle under the Mauerbrecher's depression. What happens then is especially painful to watch because they don't even need to try to aim for the commander's hatch, they can just go right through the machinegun port, because they're already an inch away from it.

So the decorations are 100% worthless to someone like me, who is appropriately too worthless to have any tier 10s or premium 8s?  At least the crap boxes also gave me a couple of free small medkits and small repairkits and even a manual fire extinguisher. I can barely contain my excitement and joy.
