Went back to the game to get my 5xs in...

I can safely say that I have pretty much lost all my skills, lol.

Proposed Tier II Japanese Tank Destroyer: Type 5 Ho-Ru

Wild Goose · 2013-11-12, 01:07

For some reason that seems less like a chick to me and more like a infant goose. No idea why.

Top looks kinda fragile too...

Sumeragi · 2013-11-12, 01:22

30 mm is the second most armor among Tier II TDs, after T18's 51 mm.

Wild Goose · 2013-11-12, 01:25

Yeah, I think that's the problem - I've been playing heavies too much, so my perspective's skewed.

It looks like it has a 'garbage armor' once it is put into the the update.

Got a good game today, killed 5 tanks and getting a patrol duty medal

"And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you." ~Friedrich Nietzsche

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the fruits of my horrifying weekend. Much platooning has been done, several stats have been ruined, and countless tears of rage have been shed. Now, without further ado:

I don't even have a concrete plan on what to do with all this XP. Jump up to the T71 maybe? Research an arty line?

Well, whatever I do with it, I'm on the brink of sanity at this point. It'll feel good to just focus on a small number of tanks again instead of doing 3/4 of my (big) garage.

Bonus: I ran into a FLCRM platoon this weekend. They also had a Red Sky platoon on the same team. It was mostly a blowout match as expected.

Good for you, does it really require gold just to convert those excess experience into a free experience?

If yes, please give me a frying pan just in case

EDIT: I`m still kind of new player(that would make me 5 month player. Meaning it`s been like 5 months ) and I already know almost everything except converting the excess experience

Save it for the Japanese line. The medium line seems like a headache waiting to happen at low levels.

Sumeragi · 2013-11-12, 12:25

It's the STA and Type 61 that seem to be the real headache.

Yeah, I am not even bothering grinding the entire JPN line. Just going to ram through with free XP.

LeoXiao · 2013-11-12, 14:56

I don't think I've ever completely free XP'd anything above tier 4. And hopefully I never will. Tanks are there to be ground.

Tak · 2013-11-12, 15:15

Well, I am unusually picky with my tanks. That and there are certain experiences I do not wish to revisit.

RWBladewing · 2013-11-12, 15:41

The Medium III is the only tank I have ever completely refused to play and free exp'd past. After suffering through the previous 2 I had just 0 desire to even try it. And I even stuck with the Lee for both the M4 and T1.

LeoXiao · 2013-11-12, 15:41

A statistical description of the 5x disasters and recent comeback:
Still, WR in the last 7 days averages to 42%.

Oct. 26 thru Nov. 9
Battles: 146
WR: 39.04%
Avg. dmg: 761
Avg. XP: 379
Avg. kills: 0.73

Nov. 9 thru Nov. 10 (until 7PM)
Battles: 31
WR: 45.16%
Avg. dmg: 683
Avg. XP: 343
Avg. kills: 0.71

Nov. 10 (after 7PM) thru Nov. 11 (note: this includes the E-50/PTA quest)
Battles: 54
WR: 51.85%
Avg. damage: 987
Avg. XP: 442
Avg. kills: 1.09

Average tier remained relatively stable at around 7.3.

Achiuakuna · 2013-11-12, 17:14

You know, Leo, those last few games we had with Dai actually saved my yesterday's stats. I was actually above 50% in win rate(the only day out of the 3 with above 50% win rate), despite how I drove my T32 straight into the water and drowned after the game started...

Edit: I'd also like to share my n00b mistake from yesterday. Apparently permatracking T110E3 from the side will not do damage. The tank's sideview is longer than the hull's hitbox so the shell won't touch the HP of the tank at all even if you shoot the big frontal wheels from the side. I actually thought it was a good way to guarantee tracking and damage, but apparently it's not for all tanks.

Gravitas Free Zone · 2013-11-12, 22:38

I tried to install the EU November 8 Field of Poppies hangar a couple of different ways and it didn't work. I suppose I'll just wait until it reverts to its normal form and try again.

Look at those poppies.

The FTR link popped up more security warnings than I wanted to deal with. I picked up a similar-looking set elsewhere, but no dice.

kampfer91 · 2013-11-13, 03:16

So after a wild ride in the waffentragger e-100 , i went back to the jpzE-100 , weird , i suddenly had a feeling that i'm at home , the control of JpzE ran so smooth , so familiar .

What came after that was a string of victory , such refreshing when you drove the glass cannon for nearly 2 weeks .

I haven't seen you play the 183 much lately though.

And my wn7 is finally blue

kampfer91 · 2013-11-13, 05:06

They still waiting for their tea packet , currently i'm short on credit , although i have added T-43-3 and chi nu kai to the arsenal .

A little bit regret buying the T-43-3 , gun control is much more worse than i expect .

How long is this WoT server downtime ?
