    Sim is a relatively painless way. Always join near-empty lobbies, go for AI targets while researching the first bomb/rocket mod you can, then use said bombs/rockets to zomb till you have the ARB bare essentials. From there on out you can either start playing ARB and cope with little to no performance mods for a while or continue playing Sim till you get everything you want. Base bombing is FAR more viable in Sim since you have the means to hardly ever run into enemies.

    Currently, I believe the Russian top tiers have a slight edge in stocks grinding. You get 2 R-73s stock on the Mig 29SMT and Su 27, unlike the 2 9L you get on the F16C and F15A. It's really nice to have a missile that you can alteast tell people to hold without them decoying it with 1 flare at the beginning of your stock grind lol

    • @dilldoe1991
      @dilldoe1991 Місяць тому +3

      We’re not using the same 9L if theyre getting decoyed with 1 flare, I recommend just not shooting at stupid ranges like try within a km or maybe 1.5 it’s definitely a lot more reliable than just shooting them off and hoping they dont get flared

    • @Sundownnnn
      @Sundownnnn Місяць тому

      the 9L is fairly flare resistant, I didn't even have that much of an issue with the 9P with the netz at 12.3 lmao, wasn't good but it was useable

    • @Tuhrue
      @Tuhrue Місяць тому

      @Sundownnnn I'll give the 9L credit where credit is due... it's still potent from behind... with AB on and flaring, but the R-73 opens up a wider range if angles to shoot from Making getting kills for stock grinding easier than the 9L. People are still kinda clueless nowadays so they still at times catch the thing front aspect

    Actually the mig29 9-12 and 9-13 have stock r60m or mks. For some reason though, the normal r60 is still a modification that allows you to take 6 missles. You cant have full r60ms until researching the r60m modification which is somewhere below it.

    my best tip: do assault arcade to get 300%-500% boosters and do a simulator battle match, was able to research half of the modules within 1 match, I recommend getting bombs/rocket modules before doing this as base bombing is quite viable top it off with premium time and you'll make more rp

    Good topic to cover cuz surprisingly not many people say anything beyond "it just sucks". Like yea it does but what's a better way to go about it?
    For absolute worse case scenario, ground pound a bit or shoot down some bots if you're not confident in being able to get anything else. For most stock missiles you're really hoping your opponent is distracted, hence also arriving later to the battle.

    the one best progression tip i have that not many people know about is the item shop. the only thing i buy from it is a 15% rp booster for 10 matches, this makes a noticeable impact on progression and the booster only costs 99ge so its about a dollar for 10 games with increased rp. this on top of using premium account and sometimes even a premium vehicle greatly increases progression

    Still cant believe gaijin wanted to remove the R73 from the Mig29A and give it outright R60s.... I wish they would add it for it and move it up to 12.3 or so since the missile came with the craft.... BTW for all you wondering the R73 is a full on 10 years younger than the AIM 9M missile, just as a cool little fact ;)

    @kiki7170 Місяць тому

    I actually have a much better time spading F-4C than F-14A (spaded them when top tier is 12.3), because I can just bomb base and get RP reliably lmao. (You can outpace pretty much every plane 10.3 or below with 114 FFAR and full missile load even with a stock engine. Remember to bring IR missile everytime, it will save you by counterlaunching a 9B/E at a incoming R-60M or even occasionally getting some kills after bombing base.)
    I still don't get why killing two player planes sometimes earns less RP than bombing a single base (common on smaller maps when the match does not last long), it is just asking people to go base bombing in a fighter in air to air battle mode.

      @@kurnass2000 Yeah being a bomber and got shot down like a idiot. Very fun.
      I still get positive KD in F-4C somehow and I don't know why people are so mad about others playing a flareless 10.0 plane as a fighter bomber when they are trying to spade it. (Half of my team cannot even get a kill so is that my problem because I did not clean the lobby by killing 4 guys using AIM-7Ds at the start?)
      10.0 is ruined by those all aspect and if you are saying simply not take it out whatsoever then fine. (Though I would suggest not fly out a bomber in the same regard)
      F-4C is my second-last non spaded US plane so be it.

    • @kiki7170
      @kiki7170 Місяць тому

      @@kurnass2000 Also I'm complaining about the RP reward. If it is more rewarding when getting kills, why would I take a damn heavy FFAR out when I can get RP more efficiently?
      The issue is just it is so damn rewarding bombing base and the stock grind sucks so people go for base (Spade F-4C is mediocre so stock is trash). Yeah you might think this behaviour will cost others the game but F-4C sucks by every metric, doesn't matter.
      (I have only taken bombs on 7 non-bomber planes to ARB: Wyvern (For speed grinding event), F-4C (flareless 10.0), AD-2, F-84F (trash), A-4E early (my first jet so I'm bad), F-111A (I just decide to go bombing, no excuse) and F-105D (flareless 10.0), so think what you like)

      Missiles do go nuts down low, just not as much as in WT. The problem is playercount. High playercount does not allow you to learn air combat and you survive due to luck most of the time
