Panzermoe!

Old Thread: >>6619810

World of Tanks is a Tank MMO in "Closed" Beta (500,000+ people playing can hardly make it closed). Battles are 15 vs 15.

The /jp/ channel in game is called "/jp/ (Mew)", 10-30 people are usually in it and will answer any questions.

PanzerMoe is all about tanking it easy, enjoying your tanks and having fun with other /jp/ers.

If you're impatient about Beta codes, check with Mmohut or ShatteredCrystal or Alienware for keys, they give them out.

I'm not quite sure, I get literally twice more exp on my KT. I guess it's because it is tier 9, and hitting lower tiers doesn't give much exp or something.

It can kill. That is what arty use, as well as the KV troll-cannon.

My M41 has terrible penetration, but it's HE can still 1-hit kill a tier V, and 2-shot kill a tier VI or VII heavy tank if lucky. But that is with an 1100 dmg warhead.

He has a number of advantages over AP rounds:
It's penetration doesn't decrease at higher ranges
It has an explosion radius, so even near misses can do damage
It generally does more damage than AP shells

The drawback is primarily the low penetration

The key point about HE ammo is that it usually explodes on contact and deals reduced damage when it doesn't penetrate, so a weak gun firing HE can often deal damage to a high tier tank when AP can't penetrate. So:
If you can penetrate with HE, use HE (more damage)
If you can penetrate with AP, use AP (more damage than the reduced non-penetrating HE)
If you can't penetrate with AP, use HE (small amount of damage gets through, which is better than nothing)

Some guns have better HE shells available than others, so consider the available ammo carefully.

Here's my stats for my Ferdinand and my jTaiga for the same amount of battle played.

Better win/lose/survived rate on the Ferdinand, though it's close. But the Ferdinand is one tier lower.

I killed much more with the Ferdinand, and dealt more damages on the jTaiga. Matchmaking or I was able to hide and survive on the Ferdinand? Better gun to deal more damages on the jTaiga?

More exp on the Ferdinand, results pretty close; but the Ferdinand is one tier lower so it should be the opposite I'd say.

More Top Gun and Invaders on the Ferdinand, because of the matchmaking maybe? Much more Sniper and Steel Wall on the jTaiga, because of the better accuracy of its gun, and it has 200 more exp.

So in other words, the Ferdinand and the jTaiga are somehow of an equivalent tier, but the jTaiga is evaluated better.

I'm guessing you mean when your in arty god mode. When you get the one on the left it's usually because you are too close or the tank is hiding behind a small hill. If it is because he is too close then you should use direct targeting and exit that mode. If it's a hill, then it is always a good idea to move your artillery constantly.

Just about as good as a KV with the 152mm. Except of course the T30 doesn't get two shotted.

You'll do a ton of damage if you penetrate but you will be penetrated every single shot. If you got good cover and know the weakspots of the Maus you might win, if you fight in the open you'll lose unless you are close enough to get to the Maus's side, then you'll still probably lose but you will do a lot of damage.

The T30 isn't made to go one on one with other tier 10 tanks, it is a support tank meant for massive alpha strikes from cover/hiding or supporting an army of heavies or TD's. It has the potential to be both the best tier 10 and the worst tier 10 depending on the driver.

I must be really close to the US servers or something because my ping rarely goes above 100 or so, and tends to hover in about the 30ms-60ms range most of the time.

I have gotten some pretty awesome lag spikes where my tank starts charging forwards for no good reason and crashes into an ally that suddenly appears in front of me, but it's an extremely rare occurrence.

Pic sort of related, my ping is 29. I screen capped this because Stug-chan was forced to kill her sister Hetzer-tan in battle, and then was killed herself, and the DFC tank destroyer sisters died together ;_;

There are actually a LOT more than the standard seven you see (Top Gun, Confederate, Sniper, Steel Wall, Invader, Defender, Scout). Though not all of them are implemented yet, there are quite a few interesting ones: Fadin's Medal for killing the last enemy in a match with your last shell (i.e. getting the last kill and ending the match with 0/xx ammo); Bilotte's Medal for killing at least one tank, taking at least 5 critical hits, being left with less than 20% of your HP, and surviving; Grim Reaper for getting the killing blow on a tank three shots in a row.

It will be interesting to see how some of these go.

>> No.6661641

>>6661607
Depends, you only really need a new suspension when you can't equip new equipment like a turret or gun. If you can, mount the engine first as that allows you to hit your maximum speed much better and helps out your traverse speed. I kinda derped it early in the game and traverse speed is turn rate of your hull.

>> No.6661643

>>6661607
It varies from tank to tank, but Suspension is almost always useful since it affects max weight, top speed, and hull traverse. Engines are usually useful, but not necessarily priorities. Some turrets are useful on their own (The Schmalturm on the PzIV is an example), but generally you only get turrets to get the better guns. Radio is useful on most tanks, but can generally be passed on.

>IS-3 is shit

I don't know about you, but from my long, long experience in WoT, I'd really rather go head-to-head with high tier German Heavies than any of their Russian Counterpart. That isn't to say that I can win aaginst German Heavies, but at least my shots actually either ring or, when I hit the side, it actualy deals good damage; unlike against IS series tanks:

>Be at it's front
>It bounced off!
>Ricochet!
>Try to go to side
>Ricochet!
>Gun can't depress enough to hit hull, need to move far away

>>6661821
I've found that it's way easier to penetrate the front plate of a Russian heavy than that of a German heavy. Tiger-II has around 150mm of sloped armor. All the IS-3 has going for it is 110mm of very sloped armor, if it doesn't bounce, it gets its shit slapped. I've never been so cautious around Tiger-Is in my KV-3 or IS compared to going up against Tiger-IIs in my IS-3. Honestly, I'm hoping that this grind for the BL-9 will help the IS-3 shine. Just makes me so jelly.

There's three different 10.5's.

One is the Hetzer and others have, dedicated HE thrower, two is the short 10,5cm, three is the long 10,5cm.

The short/long are both the King Tiger's guns, Jagdpanther has the short 10,5cm which is 320 damage, 200 penetration, 6.67 rate of fire and the AP shells cost about 1,030 each.

either set up somewhere you can snipe at long range or follow the heavies around while hanging back some in cover and shoot at whatever they shoot/what shoots them.

TD playstyle is not any different from regular tanks other than you have no turret. Use your particular TD's speed and armor to indicate exactly how you play them. Some must hide, some are better at close support, JT and ferdi if the ferdi is on top of that match can even push with heavy support instead of supporting the heavies.

TD are tanks with better guns and no turrets.

You can not say a type of tank plays a certain way because tanks are all varied. The tiger for example can not take hits for crap, but its still a good tank if you play it properly.

Going through a TD line you will find TD that have powerful guns, TD that have kind of weak guns. TD that are agile, TD that are slow. TD which can not take hits, and TD which can take hits.

The only real thing then that can be said about all TD is that since they do not have a turret you can not play 'cover games' with them. This changes how you position yourself.

Hide behind bushes, not inside bushes. Let team mates and your radio be your eyes when you can. This does not mean to stay way back. If you want to be totally safe just play an SPG. TD are for close fire support. Further, most TD do not have anywhere near a big enough gun to play some sort of magic 'ambush' role where they hide somewhere and deny the enemy that area. If the enemy wants that area hes coming through if its just you. You need the support of other tanks, and since TD generally do better behind or beside other tanks, as opposed to in front of them, its up to you to maintain the proper distance from your team mates. You can see them, they cant see you unless they look behind them.

TD is rewarding. T8+ german and russian TDs diverge in their focus. before that they are all the same general style of being weakish compared to equivalent anks. russian t 2, 5 and 7 TD are better, german t 3, 4, and 6 td are better.

Damn, I should pay more attention. Oh well, still, dat T-54/55 is looking fucking sexy, shame I gotta wait on the soft-wipe in order to use it, I only researched the T-43 and I still don't have the cash to buy it and properly equip it.

Current arty gets a nerf to make room for higher tier arty. I hope they dont ruin hummel. The gpanther gets a gun as good as its current gun. I expect the hummels current gun to get a rof increase if they nerf its damage, or something.

Also im conflicted. To start grinding exp on hummel or panther.

There are two maps that are very defensively oriented: Komarin (the one in the video) and Malinovka. Both of them have a lot of brush and building cover along an open field of some importance. In Komarin's case the capture zones are open fields, making an attack on the capture zones likely deadly because of waiting enemies. In Malinovka's case the open field is between the two bases with a mixed terrain flanking area. The other maps are more interesting.

I should grind my M41 all night then before it is nerfed. Get a head start on the next american arty...

I truly love the M41 as it is now, but I could see it's 155mm taking a hit to make room for the new arty.

One thing I always wondered about: on the tech tree it says the 155mm does 525-875 damage, but when I review my tank it says 700-1188 damage.

I wish people would realize that when the autobalancers gives you one team with lots of mid tier tanks and one team with a few highs and a lot of low, that you can just ignore the enemy high tiers, slaughter the bulk of the team, and cap.

Just lost a game because the team just HAD to try and take out the enemy maus that they could have just ignored ><

That's true. Hide behind bushes, wherein the it is between you and the enemy, not inside them, unless the bush can cover your whole tank.
