if you can always platoon together for the extra Xp and stuff, also you have a team mate that actually is not a potato if you formed a platoon before battle from your clan! btw just play the KV-2 with a full HE loadout and the 152mm derp for extreme fun and easy credits
Problem here is that MN goes to hell as soon as you platoon up.... In my experience, with no premium account, the mm goes off to just totally awful 14-1 games so much more when you either start personal reserves or platoon up! For only 15% more, I'll pass and take better match-ups 🤔
Some of the tips I've created for myself as someone working to grind out all lines (going for senior engineer): 1. Always have a small stockpile of credits, at very minimum 2 mil. 2. Have at least 1 tier 8 premium for credit grinding. I had no premiums so I bought st patricks 50 boxes and got 5 tier 8s, but just beware you may not be as lucky. For the most effective credit grinding, buy a premium type that you know you will do well with. For example a seasoned TD player should look mainly into TDs. 3. For even more effective grinding, have at least 2 tier 8 premium tanks that you do well with. Sometimes you die mid-battle and instead of waiting around doing nothing for 6 minutes you can just jump into another game immediately with your 2nd premium. 4. If you are going for all tech tree lines grinded out, grind them all simultaneously but give priority to grinding up any "on track" lines. This will be tough initially because the lower tier tanks (IV and below) on most lines suck. But grinding every line simultaneously tier by tier will do these things: - Prevent you from getting bored of only playing with one tank type, and lessen the feeling of "being suck on 1 sucky grind". - Force any random blueprints you might get from battlepass or dailies to be used more effectively, so they'll be used up on lessening the grind of your tier 5 tech tree tanks for example instead of going onto a tier 1 on a line you otherwise wouldn't have bothered to start for months. 5. Keep an eye out for deals, sometimes you might get an offer pop up where you can get gold or premium in a bundle with other things you might have needed for significantly cheaper than buying those things individiually. Occasionally they do a discount (I think it's about 50%) on buying consumables with credits, if that happens (double check first to be safe), invest the majority of your credits (save enough for you to keep grinding credits in your premiums though) by buying a shit tonne of consumables (i.e large medkits for 5000 credits per). Sell these consumables when they're back at normal price again (large medkit for 10000 per) and you will have a return rate of 150% of whatever amount you invested in as little as a few days to a week with no fingers lifted. 6. Always at least do your dailies, especially if there is a battle pass season ongoing. If you do all of your dailies each day you will likely have enough to fully complete all 3 battlepass chapters if not come extremely close to doing so. It is worth buying the improved pass, but to make sure you use your money and time effectively, don't buy it until near the very end of the battlepass season, so like a day or two before. This is because you may end up unexpectedly finishing more chapters after the first, in which case buying the season pass or whatever it's called is worth it over buying a singular chapter's pass. 7. Pay attention to current missions and on track lines. You might have found a line you really enjoy and this can make the grind to the end of that tree significantly easier. Other times they may have ongoing missions that reward you with multipliers or consumables (and if you don't use those consumables, you can sell them for credits in the depot, 10k each I believe) 8. Try to do your Twitch drop stuff on the side. Even if you're only credit grinding, you can still use the tokens you get to obtain things you'll need when grinding tanks like premium days, garage slots, x5 xp missions, credits and reserve and consumable packs. Yet another gain for doing nothing other than opening some random person's twitch stream in the background, muting the tab if the audio bothers you, and remembering to claim on the Twitch inventory page. For best results, watch a streamer that has a 24/7 stream going with drops enabled. 9. If you need more credits and don't use large consumables, go to your depot and sell them. I had like 150+ automatic fire extinguishers just sitting in there which netted me a cool 1.5+ mil. 10. Find a clan that runs clan boosters. Some clans don't even require you to do anything or have any pre-requisites or participate in clan wars but are more than happy to add you as long as you just play the game casually. Also gives you an opportunity to be able to platoon with people more often. Especially effective if you're grinding out a line for more morale and motivation, even more so if you're grinding something like a light tank and need a TD teammate so you can get the spotting, or vice versa if you're grinding a TD and need someone to spot for you. 11. Don't be afraid to use your free XP but use it wisely. If you follow point 4 and there's a line in particular that you hate grinding for, you should be able to wait for your random blueprints to significantly decrease the xp amount needed to progress up that line while you play in lines or tanks that you do enjoy. I usually use free XP to get a better gun on stock tanks that have a crappy gun, at least then I can pump out more alpha damage more reliably to start getting more base XP. Some lines absolutely suck, you likely will not enjoy every single line, but trying to keep yourself in a positive mindset while playing versus getting frustrated at being able to do little to nothing in some games will help you to have better games overall. Sometimes you'll get teams that suck, sometimes you'll get teams that get all the damage and win before you're able to fire a connecting shot, but I've found after playing 500 games in both a negative and positive mindset, I get much better personal results (regardless of loss or win) when trying to stay positive. And lastly, do and don't listen to your teammates. Listen to them when they're telling you things like enemy positions, their position etc. Don't let dead teammates that probably pushed 10 enemy tanks solo and got angry because they inevitably died as a result tell you how to play your own game. Maybe some of this will help someone.
This video is sooo helpful to me as i am a wotb player whos used to that game mechanics where its so easy to 30k exp and 100k credit per vattle in my progetto 65 and krang, and switching to wot pc. Some of these thing you mentioned are sooooo unbelievably helpful as i found that i was getting like 600 exp on a victory with my badger. thanks so much even though this video is like 2 years old now 😂
10 year veteran of the game and I'm still learning more from videos... One thing I'd add regarding crew training? If you're moving your crew to a new tank and just taking the 80% option, you can quickly bump them all the way back up to 100% without spending any gold. After retraining for the vehicle, go into the individual crew members stats, and reset their crew skills. It'll dump a chunk of their skills into their training for that tank. Only do this though if you don't mind sacrificing a bit of their skill level, and have enough of it to get away with it. Don't do it obviously if you're going to have your BiA or a critical perk like Sixth Sense drop below 100%. Personally I usually do this because grinding out a stock tank crippled by sub 100% crew is a lot more painful than grinding out said tank without Smooth Ride or Snap Shot trained up.
Retrain + reset is the worst advice you can give! It costs you 10% of crew XP. Base training without skills it's ~30k XP. Reset 1st skill to cover the basic traning is 10% of basic + 10% of the 1st skill = 50k XP. Reseting the 2nd skill is 70k XP. Reset the 3rd skill 114k XP. Even with premium account and 300% boosters it's a lot. It is way better to reset just the basic traning and play several battles without 100% base crew. Another trick is to keep unassigned skill (+) if you know you are going to retrain. Then you do not get the penalty (AFAIK). WoT is a lot about basic math, if you cannot do this basic math rather play something else.
I can only say, that a Premium tier 8 will take care of most of your credit problems, if you play and pay smart. With some free premium days, like now from the sandbox you can make enough credits to still be able to advance the tech tree.
Just wanted to say great video. I've been playing for a little over a year and have watched an incredible number of youtube videos in that period, only now getting recommended yours...damn you UA-cam! Anyway I learned a nice few things, most surprisingly the XP boost for epic medals. I get them quite frequently and never looked close enough to spot the difference, but is good to know.
STRV1 - оne of the best premium tanks to earn credits. I gain 100 - 160k per victory and 30-60k per loss. With STRV1 you can earn dealed damage easily. 1.5-6k damage per round (very low detection rate)
OMG thank you so much, I've been trying to find how experience and credits are rewarded to players after a battle and couldn't find any answers. Thank you!
M44(maybe best arty for Credit) and kv2(derp gun he shell cost is cheap) are good for non premium Credit grinding tanks. If you have is2-s(in tier 5-6-7-8 matches playable as heavy but in tier 9 matches play medium or td), it is also good. If played well, super hellcat(camo and passive spot king but low penetrate even apcr, i recommend 15 ap and 15 he) and super chaffe(passive scout is good for this tank) are also good for Credit. Sorry i am arty player. I have gw tiger, su 14-2, m53/55(but didnt buy), lorr 155 51, fv207(but didnt buy) well my opinions maybe not suitable for everyone but i wanted write this because i didnt see in video. Thanks 🙂
I’ve heard and practice most of the tips you listed but you definitely opened my eyes to tournaments as I’ve never thought to do and also I just flat out did know you could sell emblems. I could probably buy 4 tier 10’s with how many I have.
They should add Credits to Heavy Tank for tanking damage, and add experience for blocking damage since HT are at the frontline all the time, prone to death all the time, while TD/MT is at backline/bush/camp all the time and sniping to get EXP, it’s not that fair for HT.
I'm mega casual, but I am loving how helpful your videos are. I play maybe twice a week. I lose a lot. I have less than a 50% win rate. I keep feeling tempted to dive further in, but it's so overwhelming.
There’s definitely a ton of stuff to learn. The best advice I can give is to focus on one tank line at a time. Get really good at one play style, then change it up with other vehicles. Glad you’re enjoying the videos!
Personally a mostly FTP player, and had never heard of tournaments. Are they only for clans? I actually have played for well over a year and literally just now started with a clan, which makes me hope you'd consider a clan-related video explaining all the events and rewards and strategies that go along with that!
Hey! The clan stuff is definitely interesting, there's a lot to go over there. I made a couple caller (combat officer) videos, but nothing on the actual game modes. Will add that to the list! To answer your tournaments question- they can be both! There are clan tournaments as well as what I guess you could call "random tournaments." These are the ones I recommend farming as a FTP player. If you check out the website, you can see the listings. There's 1v1, 2v2, etc that update constantly. It's super easy to sign up and can be quite fun if you sign up with friends (or your new clan mates). Fully recommend it!
I don't know if a tip like playing Heavies would be useful but since you can take more of a beating and their more forgiving for newer players you can potentially survive longer and gain more exp and cash.
PLEASE...DO NOT encourage the noobs to jump in a heavy and have him think he'll do good. We have WAY too many noobs now with a few hundred battles driving the top tier heavy that everyone is counting on and he dies the first 10 seconds with zero damage!
@@justdoingitjim7095 It's literally the easiest type to learn. The second one will be MT and TD and the most difficult one is LT. Didn't count arty because there's nothing to learn.
@@GregorianMG If the noobs would stay at the lower tiers and learn the heavies that would be fine. But they race to get a tier 10 heavy and don't take time to learn the weak spots of each tank! As you pass tier 5 you have to start learning the weak spots because spamming gold just doesn't get it done like it does in lower tiers, where all you have to do is shoot the tank anywhere and you pen him! As for arty, I play it a lot and count on it in my scout tanks. I constantly see players missing most shots and they end up with low scores. There's a lot more to playing arty than non-arty players know. It's not just "click-n-shoot!" That's like saying there's nothing to learn about tier 10 heavies...just point-n-shoot!
This is why I play Wot Blitz, Wot PC requires you to purchase premium time and unlike Blitz, premium time is for the most part only available through gold purchases (Blitz gives premium days & certificates daily through missions)
Would you suggest investing bonds in a TierVIII bond premium for making credits or a TierX Premium? I'm not sure what the benefit of having a Tier X premium is apart from earning bonds with a Tier X. (Do Tier X premiums make money or at least does not make you lose money as a F2P?) Thanks!
It depends on your situation. If you don’t have a tier 8 premium at ALL, definitely a tier 8 premium. They are the best credit makers in the game (as long as you have a premium account). Tier 10 premiums (Aka special vehicles) are pretty much useless except as crew trainers and tanks for fun. You won’t make many credits or bonus bonds in them. You only get them because they’re special and different. TLDR: tier 8 prem for credit making. Tier 10 if you have leftover bonds and really want one (I don’t recommend).
here some quick question im having rn : 1 can u sell those tank that can be obtainable through the battlepass and if so,should i use it as a strat to big amount of cr randomly since u know,tier 9,shit sell for like 2m 2 which of the t8 bond tank is best to spend on and should i sell my black m41 cuz it kinda... useless... 3 how do u get universal part and blueprint...
1. Yes you can. No you shouldn’t, you’d get credits faster through tier 8 prems. 2. I believe Caern AX is still available? Or T26E5? Both are decent. 3. Blueprints are obtained through daily missions and events. Just by playing the game, you’ll accumulate them over time
@@Indoorwinner 1 i mean by accumilating them coin over time by just playing and then trade for the cheapest t9 vehicle and sell that vehicle and not using that as a way to grind cred,just a way to store up cred and have some 2m cred bomb incase :> 2 AX isnt available anymore sadly.should i sell my blackdog btw 3 blueprint can be obtained through daily mission yes... except its pretty rare and is random and im needing *universal part* rn to slap the Leo grinding and get the udes.
@@user-sg9ql8nk1u 1 and 2. Entirely up to you! Depends on what you prefer, black dog isn’t terrible but there are better prems. 3. There’s really no faster way to get universals :( Battle pass is the best bet
Been there man, and it doesn’t get better with the St Emil. I advise only going for the x2 on that tank each day while you play the more fun grinds consistently. Best of luck!
Back when I grinded that line I loved the St. Emil gun, including crazy good gun depresion. I also loved Rhm. Borisg. But in the current meta is not worth grinding that line. If you're free to play, not spending money, just play tier 5-6. Look on UA-cam what tier 5-6 are better and try those. It's not getting easy, fun or fair going high tiers.
If you don't play every day it's better to buy single days of premium instead of a full year, just calculate what suits yourself. Also if you don't want to spend a lot of gold just buy a single premium day on day where you have the entire day off and only play premiums
Oh the video is 1 year old, does Tournaments still work? I play for 2 months now havent seen it yet. EDIT: Holy Cow they DO! Oh this is something new for me totaly. Gotta check it out.
I would recommend waiting until Christmas / Holiday season. It is by far the best time for deals. If you absolutely cannot wait, I would purchase a premium (preferably for a line you're working on) that is in a bundle with some premium time.
@@parth3650 Unless you want a specific tank on sale at the time, I recommend getting the Christmas boxes they sell during the month. Guaranteed their value in gold and you can also get premiums. Premium account time, 3D styles, and more are also likely.
Then I guess I only have one question what would be the best tank to purchase in the premium version at least one that would do basically the most damage to other tanks and maybe with the most armor protection because trying to get the Ev100 tank aka the ultimate tiger tank, that I really want to get is proven to be way more difficult than I expected just a tank that will basically get me what I need is all I want that way I can build it all the way up to the e100 when I'm ready please 🥺
E 75 TS is a decent credit earner and will allow you to train a German heavy crew. This December they will likely be doing premium tank sales as they do each Christmas, so I’d wait to buy until it goes on sale then.
If you mean mods, it’s rather based on preference. As a new player, I recommend starting off with Solo’s mod pack and picking whatever mods you’d think are useful for you (as it is the easiest to set up) I personally like the increased zoom-in mod, XVM, automatically returning crew to vehicles, 3-level garage, the mark of excellence calculator, and white dead tanks / destroyed tracks. I also have a mod to keep track of my wn8 each battle and a mod to show the proximity detection range around your vehicle on the mini map. There is also a zoom-out mod, letting you zoom out farther than normal. This is one of the most useful I recommend (in fact, it’s so good, I don’t know why it’s either not in the game or banned...)
3:41 I was searching for those links that will detail the exp calculation, and found only link to wiki. I am interested in details, namely formulas of battle exp calculations.
Buy yourself a 15 days or 30 days premium (not expensive) it will make your grinding life easier. Did this and it is way much easier grinding with a premium account even if it is just for a short time.
To join sandbox- the test server- you can find info on the WoT website. Any patch notes will have a link to a guide for you. As for why I have every tank- I’ve been playing for a long time
I was told this previously, and am happy to report it is not! I double checked the last time. It’s also available in multiple of the WG official mod listing mod packs.
That is not true, unless there has been a change since I did the research for this video. If you check the description, you’ll see a link to the WG wiki with the amount of xp you get for each action
Okay how does one make their tank "vanish" at will. I have several tanks with my crew trained in concealment at 100%, camo on my tank, and use a net and I still don't know how they throw up their "stealth cloak" whenever they want. Are they using a cheat mod or what?
Alright first thing’s first. Regarding cheat mods, I want to say that there are VERY few ways to cheat in world of tanks. There is no mod that affects accuracy, shooting through walls, invisibility cloaks, or spotting mechanics. That is because all of that stuff is calculated on the server side of things, not on the client side. There are a few things calculated on the client side, but not nearly enough to make cheating a constant and unbearable threat. Just want to make that clear so no one gets the wrong idea. With regards to your question: there is a video made by Wargaming that details spotting mechanics. Feel free to watch that video for details. Spotting is full of complexities, including how bushes work, which parts of your tanks can be spotted and can spot themselves, view range caps and different camo percentages, etc. Long story short, you’ll be spotted because some enemy tank (whoever that may be) had a view range value that overpowered your camo value. Camo gives you a percentage of view range countered. This does not make you invisible. The only way to be 100% certain you are not spotted is by playing outside the 445 meter maximum view range. Another possibility is that you are in an obvious position and are blind fired. Again, this is not a hack, but simply the opponent having good game sense. Happy tanking!
I have tried tournaments and honestly they are total waste of time if you dont have pro team. Like all of your teammates should have 3k+ wn8 and be on voice chat to start winning some tournaments. Even then you earn so little gold it's pointless. Honestly if you can't spend just 10 euros for a basic tier 6 premium tank then just play tier 5s or wait for marathon and try to get premium tank that way, but honestly it's just insane grind. Like why waste your life on a marathon when you can earn money on minimum wage job for a tier 8 premium in few hours?
Unfortunately I don’t have a streaming schedule (I only stream when I happen to have time). Usually it will be in the evenings, more often on Fridays and weekends. Easiest way to know would be to follow me on twitch so you get notified when I go live. At some point, if I’m able to get a consistent twitch schedule / system going. I’ll make sure to announce it.
The actual strategies, definitely! As far as mechanics go, however, I’m unsure. Check the wiki link; it should give details on the different platforms.
The exp from "heroic resistance" when losing with epic medals or whatever it's called is not shown in the team exp list. Only on details page. Its shown as 50% of base exp, and is coounted towards base exp goals.
Thank you for correcting me! I will almost always forget or flat out miss something in these videos so I always enjoy the helpful comments.

I can only say, that a Premium tier 8 will take care of most of your credit problems, if you play and pay smart. With some free premium days, like now from the sandbox you can make enough credits to still be able to advance the tech tree.
I have WZ tank destroyer tier 8 ( idk how i got it cuz i didn't pay it and I don't remember how i got it) and it's perfect for credits
how abt the b o n d prem
Just wanted to say great video. I've been playing for a little over a year and have watched an incredible number of youtube videos in that period, only now getting recommended yours...damn you UA-cam! Anyway I learned a nice few things, most surprisingly the XP boost for epic medals. I get them quite frequently and never looked close enough to spot the difference, but is good to know.
so underrated channel
thx, very interesting and informative, even after 30000 plus games I learn...
STRV1 - оne of the best premium tanks to earn credits. I gain 100 - 160k per victory and 30-60k per loss. With STRV1 you can earn dealed damage easily. 1.5-6k damage per round (very low detection rate)
OMG thank you so much, I've been trying to find how experience and credits are rewarded to players after a battle and couldn't find any answers. Thank you!
M44(maybe best arty for Credit) and kv2(derp gun he shell cost is cheap) are good for non premium Credit grinding tanks. If you have is2-s(in tier 5-6-7-8 matches playable as heavy but in tier 9 matches play medium or td), it is also good. If played well, super hellcat(camo and passive spot king but low penetrate even apcr, i recommend 15 ap and 15 he) and super chaffe(passive scout is good for this tank) are also good for Credit.
Sorry i am arty player. I have gw tiger, su 14-2, m53/55(but didnt buy), lorr 155 51, fv207(but didnt buy) well my opinions maybe not suitable for everyone but i wanted write this because i didnt see in video. Thanks 🙂
Thx for this. Just came over from console and started all over again. This helps.
Good breakdown, Sir.

Video requests: Tournament Guide
This video has a lot of details, and explained thoroughly. Was a lot of help. And a lot of good tips.
I’ve heard and practice most of the tips you listed but you definitely opened my eyes to tournaments as I’ve never thought to do and also I just flat out did know you could sell emblems. I could probably buy 4 tier 10’s with how many I have.
They should add Credits to Heavy Tank for tanking damage, and add experience for blocking damage since HT are at the frontline all the time, prone to death all the time, while TD/MT is at backline/bush/camp all the time and sniping to get EXP, it’s not that fair for HT.
I'm mega casual, but I am loving how helpful your videos are. I play maybe twice a week. I lose a lot. I have less than a 50% win rate. I keep feeling tempted to dive further in, but it's so overwhelming.
There’s definitely a ton of stuff to learn. The best advice I can give is to focus on one tank line at a time. Get really good at one play style, then change it up with other vehicles.
Glad you’re enjoying the videos!
Personally a mostly FTP player, and had never heard of tournaments. Are they only for clans?
I actually have played for well over a year and literally just now started with a clan, which makes me hope you'd consider a clan-related video explaining all the events and rewards and strategies that go along with that!
Hey! The clan stuff is definitely interesting, there's a lot to go over there. I made a couple caller (combat officer) videos, but nothing on the actual game modes. Will add that to the list!
To answer your tournaments question- they can be both! There are clan tournaments as well as what I guess you could call "random tournaments." These are the ones I recommend farming as a FTP player.
If you check out the website, you can see the listings. There's 1v1, 2v2, etc that update constantly. It's super easy to sign up and can be quite fun if you sign up with friends (or your new clan mates). Fully recommend it!
Especially the different 1v1's. I find that almost 50% of people who sign up for 1v1 tournaments don't even show up and you get technical victories.
I just found this channel and I am about to watch so much useful content... PS: I didn't know you could ban a map.
There's a lot of stuff World Gaming doesn't tell you or provides in their training vids. The more time you spend on the game the more they get.
Wait, banning maps is a thing???
I proudly refuse to give money to a 1.5B company that still wont fix the Polish tank line. thanks for this vid dude
I am grinding the KV4 line. once I met a M+2, and the enemy has a Maus. I never feel depressed like in that match
I don't know if a tip like playing Heavies would be useful but since you can take more of a beating and their more forgiving for newer players you can potentially survive longer and gain more exp and cash.
PLEASE...DO NOT encourage the noobs to jump in a heavy and have him think he'll do good. We have WAY too many noobs now with a few hundred battles driving the top tier heavy that everyone is counting on and he dies the first 10 seconds with zero damage!
@@justdoingitjim7095 It's literally the easiest type to learn. The second one will be MT and TD and the most difficult one is LT. Didn't count arty because there's nothing to learn.
@@GregorianMG If the noobs would stay at the lower tiers and learn the heavies that would be fine. But they race to get a tier 10 heavy and don't take time to learn the weak spots of each tank! As you pass tier 5 you have to start learning the weak spots because spamming gold just doesn't get it done like it does in lower tiers, where all you have to do is shoot the tank anywhere and you pen him! As for arty, I play it a lot and count on it in my scout tanks. I constantly see players missing most shots and they end up with low scores. There's a lot more to playing arty than non-arty players know. It's not just "click-n-shoot!" That's like saying there's nothing to learn about tier 10 heavies...just point-n-shoot!
@@justdoingitjim7095mad elitist. It's a game. If noobs stayed in lower tiers!!!🤡
THIS VIDEO HELPED SO MUCH 😭🙏
This is why I play Wot Blitz, Wot PC requires you to purchase premium time and unlike Blitz, premium time is for the most part only available through gold purchases (Blitz gives premium days & certificates daily through missions)
thank you for very simple and informative video, please keep them coming, us noobs need advices on how to become gooder :)
me who stopped grinding IS-7 and sold Obj 257 since i was losing more credits than i could make: *great!*
thanks for your advice. i just found the game and download while watching your guides. GG
Thanks for how xp and credits work
Ty those where some reallly good tips. I am a newer player, I find these videos very useful Ty.
An interesting way of making money is refferal programs the commander can pick either a tier 8 prem or 3.4 mil creds as his reward
Can you focus the next video on what skills you should obtain in which order? Assume T34-85M
Probably not the very next video, but when the crew re-work comes out I'm sure videos like that will be all over. I may make one, we'll see.
Also, “just play better”. Ha
Just FYI you can reroll daily mission by click on the mission u don’t like and the the circle arrow often get a easier mission can do so every 4 hrs
interesting... if so much work and hours are necessary, do we also receive a salary?
Would you suggest investing bonds in a TierVIII bond premium for making credits or a TierX Premium? I'm not sure what the benefit of having a Tier X premium is apart from earning bonds with a Tier X. (Do Tier X premiums make money or at least does not make you lose money as a F2P?) Thanks!
It depends on your situation. If you don’t have a tier 8 premium at ALL, definitely a tier 8 premium. They are the best credit makers in the game (as long as you have a premium account).
Tier 10 premiums (Aka special vehicles) are pretty much useless except as crew trainers and tanks for fun. You won’t make many credits or bonus bonds in them. You only get them because they’re special and different.
TLDR: tier 8 prem for credit making. Tier 10 if you have leftover bonds and really want one (I don’t recommend).
@@Indoorwinner thanks for clearing that up!
here some quick question im having rn :
1 can u sell those tank that can be obtainable through the battlepass and if so,should i use it as a strat to big amount of cr randomly since u know,tier 9,shit sell for like 2m
2 which of the t8 bond tank is best to spend on and should i sell my black m41 cuz it kinda... useless...
3 how do u get universal part and blueprint...
1. Yes you can. No you shouldn’t, you’d get credits faster through tier 8 prems.
2. I believe Caern AX is still available? Or T26E5? Both are decent.
3. Blueprints are obtained through daily missions and events. Just by playing the game, you’ll accumulate them over time
@@Indoorwinner
1 i mean by accumilating them coin over time by just playing and then trade for the cheapest t9 vehicle and sell that vehicle and not using that as a way to grind cred,just a way to store up cred and have some 2m cred bomb incase :>
2 AX isnt available anymore sadly.should i sell my blackdog btw
3 blueprint can be obtained through daily mission yes... except its pretty rare and is random and im needing *universal part* rn to slap the Leo grinding and get the udes.
@@user-sg9ql8nk1u 1 and 2. Entirely up to you! Depends on what you prefer, black dog isn’t terrible but there are better prems.
3. There’s really no faster way to get universals :( Battle pass is the best bet
I started today because of the warhammer season8. Now I realise i'll probably will not be able to play with the themed tanks. That sucks
antidepressants meta OP for grinding rn
These are very good tips, but much harder for someone who is brand new to the game. I simply can't avoid the bad grinds yet. Ugh, the Nashorn.
Been there man, and it doesn’t get better with the St Emil. I advise only going for the x2 on that tank each day while you play the more fun grinds consistently.
Best of luck!
Back when I grinded that line I loved the St. Emil gun, including crazy good gun depresion. I also loved Rhm. Borisg. But in the current meta is not worth grinding that line.
If you're free to play, not spending money, just play tier 5-6. Look on UA-cam what tier 5-6 are better and try those. It's not getting easy, fun or fair going high tiers.
Platoon created in battle is dynamic platoon so it does not give you anything.
If you don't play every day it's better to buy single days of premium instead of a full year, just calculate what suits yourself. Also if you don't want to spend a lot of gold just buy a single premium day on day where you have the entire day off and only play premiums
Oh the video is 1 year old, does Tournaments still work? I play for 2 months now havent seen it yet.
EDIT: Holy Cow they DO! Oh this is something new for me totaly. Gotta check it out.
Hate to be a sell-out, but I actually have other videos on my channel all about tournaments if you want some quick guides!
@@Indoorwinner Will check it for sure. Thanks for this info mate!
Im Just starting and already broke.
If you were to reccomend a f2p player that were looking to spend money just once on the game. What would it be on?
I would recommend waiting until Christmas / Holiday season. It is by far the best time for deals.
If you absolutely cannot wait, I would purchase a premium (preferably for a line you're working on) that is in a bundle with some premium time.
@@Indoorwinner alright, but what would I buy during the deal? Like what category (gold, tanks, etc.)
@@parth3650 Unless you want a specific tank on sale at the time, I recommend getting the Christmas boxes they sell during the month. Guaranteed their value in gold and you can also get premiums. Premium account time, 3D styles, and more are also likely.
@@Indoorwinner Alright thnx
Sweet stuff
Then I guess I only have one question what would be the best tank to purchase in the premium version at least one that would do basically the most damage to other tanks and maybe with the most armor protection because trying to get the Ev100 tank aka the ultimate tiger tank, that I really want to get is proven to be way more difficult than I expected just a tank that will basically get me what I need is all I want that way I can build it all the way up to the e100 when I'm ready please 🥺
E 75 TS is a decent credit earner and will allow you to train a German heavy crew. This December they will likely be doing premium tank sales as they do each Christmas, so I’d wait to buy until it goes on sale then.
I would like to know what addons you recommend for a new player?
If you mean mods, it’s rather based on preference. As a new player, I recommend starting off with Solo’s mod pack and picking whatever mods you’d think are useful for you (as it is the easiest to set up)
I personally like the increased zoom-in mod, XVM, automatically returning crew to vehicles, 3-level garage, the mark of excellence calculator, and white dead tanks / destroyed tracks. I also have a mod to keep track of my wn8 each battle and a mod to show the proximity detection range around your vehicle on the mini map.
There is also a zoom-out mod, letting you zoom out farther than normal. This is one of the most useful I recommend (in fact, it’s so good, I don’t know why it’s either not in the game or banned...)
How to participate or whatever in thoese tournaments
now with the crew update, the grind is going to be less painful maybe
Thank you sir.
3:41 I was searching for those links that will detail the exp calculation, and found only link to wiki.
I am interested in details, namely formulas of battle exp calculations.
Unfortunately, from what I can tell, we players know what causes xp but do not know the formulas. Sorry
Buy yourself a 15 days or 30 days premium (not expensive) it will make your grinding life easier. Did this and it is way much easier grinding with a premium account even if it is just for a short time.
It's basic but that is what I need.
My Man i grinded credits for 3 days for my first tier 8 and 5 days for my first tier 9 tank and around 12 days for my first tier 10 ;-;
being on a new account getting xp is pain, especially in a slow tank that can barely move i cant do more than 200 dmg
Happy tanking :)
Refreshing video, helpful, and i need new pc cuz i can't open store menu and some other menu even after repairing the client
'-') poor me
Very good video :)
Any help is very much appreciated!
me a true desperate started playing building games just to build tanks i wanted to have but couldnt because of grind barrier
og days of wot i pleyd this game 9 yers
Thank You but i will wait with the vote just yet.
5:18 as a german i can tell u the second version of pronouncing Löwe is the right one, not perfect but very near it
How do you have every tank?!!? And do you know how to join Sandbox in 2023?
To join sandbox- the test server- you can find info on the WoT website. Any patch notes will have a link to a guide for you.
As for why I have every tank- I’ve been playing for a long time
I think this is Chef John
Do tournaments still exist in the future?
Yep!
@12:50 - Pretty sure that dead tank mod is banned by the way
I was told this previously, and am happy to report it is not! I double checked the last time.
It’s also available in multiple of the WG official mod listing mod packs.
I like your content.
thank you for recording this info!
Best way to grind effectively is by only grinding during december. Or when you get free premium days. Otherwise I dont bother.
well being poor has now made me a prideful masochist, nice XD
I like s.conqueror and st-ii who is better?
S Conq is better
Im in a stock 40 tp as we speak bruh i feel attacked
i have seen some people say that capping gives you 1.5 exp multiplier? is this true?
That is not true, unless there has been a change since I did the research for this video. If you check the description, you’ll see a link to the WG wiki with the amount of xp you get for each action
Okay how does one make their tank "vanish" at will. I have several tanks with my crew trained in concealment at 100%, camo on my tank, and use a net and I still don't know how they throw up their "stealth cloak" whenever they want. Are they using a cheat mod or what?
Alright first thing’s first. Regarding cheat mods, I want to say that there are VERY few ways to cheat in world of tanks. There is no mod that affects accuracy, shooting through walls, invisibility cloaks, or spotting mechanics. That is because all of that stuff is calculated on the server side of things, not on the client side. There are a few things calculated on the client side, but not nearly enough to make cheating a constant and unbearable threat. Just want to make that clear so no one gets the wrong idea.
With regards to your question: there is a video made by Wargaming that details spotting mechanics. Feel free to watch that video for details. Spotting is full of complexities, including how bushes work, which parts of your tanks can be spotted and can spot themselves, view range caps and different camo percentages, etc.
Long story short, you’ll be spotted because some enemy tank (whoever that may be) had a view range value that overpowered your camo value. Camo gives you a percentage of view range countered. This does not make you invisible. The only way to be 100% certain you are not spotted is by playing outside the 445 meter maximum view range.
Another possibility is that you are in an obvious position and are blind fired. Again, this is not a hack, but simply the opponent having good game sense.
Happy tanking!
its weird to have camo just on hull
How do you get a three-level garage? Mine only allows for two, as far as I can tell.
Yep, default is limited to two. I use a mod to get 3 rows
I’m not a prideful masochist. I’m just financially responsible.
I have tried tournaments and honestly they are total waste of time if you dont have pro team. Like all of your teammates should have 3k+ wn8 and be on voice chat to start winning some tournaments. Even then you earn so little gold it's pointless. Honestly if you can't spend just 10 euros for a basic tier 6 premium tank then just play tier 5s or wait for marathon and try to get premium tank that way, but honestly it's just insane grind. Like why waste your life on a marathon when you can earn money on minimum wage job for a tier 8 premium in few hours?
3:49 , talk about alot of obj.277s:D
Welcome to average ELO Advances! :)
Bro no joke I came home from a party drunk as shit and decided to play wot. Then I for some reason did better than usual.
I die 3 hits every time 😂😂😂 the grind be real been playing off and on but weeks off on for years lol
Bro at 4:07 that's my clan the GLAD clan that's MY clan!!!! Sadly I wasn't in that battle
what is the best tech tree foor beginners, i know i can find it on yt but al those vidoes are atleast a year old

When is the next time when you stream ?
Unfortunately I don’t have a streaming schedule (I only stream when I happen to have time).
Usually it will be in the evenings, more often on Fridays and weekends. Easiest way to know would be to follow me on twitch so you get notified when I go live.
At some point, if I’m able to get a consistent twitch schedule / system going. I’ll make sure to announce it.
@@Indoorwinner ok thanks. i ask because when you stream i usual sleep and so I dont hear the notification 😴
@@wolki7487 Yeah sorry about that :/
Hoping to fix up a schedule soon enough
@@Indoorwinner thanks for the great stream Today/yesterday (I dont know) I finally heard the notification. By the way I'm Wolki7391 on twitch 😊
How is your tank list 3 high
I have a mod for garage organization. I use Solo’s mod pack and customize it how I want. 3-high garage was one of my selections :)
It’s funny because I did 3500 damage 5 kills and survived deep into the match yet I earned only 1,000 xp
Does the same process work for Blitz?
The actual strategies, definitely!
As far as mechanics go, however, I’m unsure. Check the wiki link; it should give details on the different platforms.
Every time I’m on the frontline with the kv1s I die 😂😢
I like Paris.
WAIT THATS ME YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
