There is a reason I no longer play my E 25. For the longest time, it was my highest earned EXP in a single battle (before my Tortoise finally dethroned it) at 2,221 base EXP. Did I do anything special? No. I just sat in a bush and fired like a maniac, moving onto the next bush as the battle progressed. Granted, I was a dedicated TD player back then (still my highest-played type at 4,420 out of 10,064) so it suited me but I quickly realised how toxic it was (only 37 battles played). Now, it sits in my garage as an ornament. A testament to the past, when World of Tanks was quite different to the game of today. Thank you for the video as always Quackybaby.
Now imagine this with the upcoming Field Modification system, where it can have an additional 7% (so up to 32%) of camo after firing, that'll truly be insane.

I remember back in the day when I bought this vehicle my max tier tank was the chaffee at tier 5. I thought I was buying the t95 as the icons looked kind of similar and I got their names confused. There are no words to describe how disappointed I was when I received a tiny fast little TD instead of the behemoth that is the t95, but little did I know. 😉
E-25....T-95...e-25...t-95...e25...t95. How dafuk you confuse these two? I have to call bullshit! You maliciously intended to buy the E-25 100%. "Oh, I accidentally bought the wrong tank, they look so much alike..."
Having no gun rammer you can pretty much destroy a Canon with 3k HP in 1 minute, now if you have vents and rammer plus consumables then it goes up to 3.3k which is simply brutal.It's a piranha, delivering small bites but in very quick succesion. Field modifications will allow you to build 2 different configurations, one for spotting and one for damage dealing, so you can stay in a bush in Malinovhka with binoculars, vents and camo to maximize the view range and then switch to rammer, vents and exhaust...whatever you want to imagine, this thing will be able to do so.
@@Simon-jj3jk Well, that's not really the case unless you face things like VK 100.01P, KV-4s, IS-3 or Defenders but it definitely pays off because many, and I mean MANY, players use Progettos, Skorpions, Lorrains, Rhm, Lynx, EBR 75, M40-43s, Somua, 50 100...so if you know how to move you can still have a significative impact. The most important thing is the cap and the reset and trust me, I have low pen with my EVEN 90 and my SuperPershing and I've reached General rank only by capturing the bases or resetting the cap. Mobility is the most important thing in the Frontlines game mode.
@@juanjodpr true, forgot to consider those light Armor op tanks, that’s my bad; but for certain areas, it really is not good for a td that doesn’t have a turret, it could rely on its high camo value, but not too long if your opponent is getting too annoyed and they either decide to rush you or simply just change the area they attack, depending on how many defenders are in the same area with you (and that’s only the defending case because I cannot think of any situations that defenders are using loads of light armor tanks trying to rush and die just to defend the cap against the attackers, so if the opponent are smart enough, I’d say e25 is situationally good but still not a better choice compare to skorp (I mean every tank has its weakness, that puts all the tanks into the situationally good area, but the turret that skorp has gives more opportunities for it so it could use more positions, not to mention that e25 is easily affected by some small slope, unless you are willing to stand on top of it, without the bush to cover or you just abandon the position)
@@Simon-jj3jk The most similar tank was the Kanonen90 before it was buffed to its 105mm gun version, pretty much an E25 a tier higher. The lack of penetration was the problem as well as the lack of dpm (as it is still now). I'd say those fast tanks could be used to rapidly conquer a flank which was left uncovered, taking profit from some holes in the enemy lines in the Frontline mode, something that usually happens, specially when people keep on sending tanks and losing them until they realize they can't send any other tank and they must wait. I mean, rather than the E25 I would go with the LT-432, pretty much same mobility and better armor and good dpm but still the amount of weakly armored tanks in the Frontlines sometimes rewards you a lot if you sue HE.
@@AndrewWhiteKhanty Don't forget that QB shows the E25 in a favourable situation. Nowadays you will pretty much always have tier 8 tanks in ur battles and in this video he mostly shot lower and equal tiers. If you face tier 8 tanks it can quite easily be the case that u cant penetrate frontally at all, even with gold. This can be quite frustrating. QB makes this tank look way more op than it actually is. Sure when u are top tier this tank is a beast, but against tier 8s it is rather the opposite unless u can get their sides or rears.
I wouldn’t say they are easy prey. But maybe like that fly that is really hard to see but also very slow to move around. Sure you’re gonna get them eventually, but it would take you a bit longer than a pest that is much easier to spot.
@@ZafrasF yep, not scary, just obnoxious. And it would be better if they weren’t let into the house at all. But sometimes Wargaming leaves the back door open and forgets to put the screen up. And every time Wargaming gets caught they are like, “we know you don’t like the flies, we won’t do it again. Don’t worry”
That's tough. QB videos makes me want to get back to WoT, but each time I get back to WoT, I do a game, it ends with only one or two hit... sometimes, and I get brutally ravaged whatever the tier I am playing. Not only new players, returning players have an attrocious time to get back in the game. :/
I won the E25 during Christmas, and I hated it!! I would charge in and sports and circle enemies and die!! Now I understand. Shoot from afar. Remain unsorted. Thanks for the tip to do well, QB
Now imagine someone having grinded through the British medium line and putting a 3 skill crew in his Centurion AX, thinking the fun is about to start as a top tier and in reality getting into a world of constantly being hammered by Object 430Us with 5 skill crews, upped bounty equipment and level 10 field maintenance. Must be like having to play E25s all the time: hitting nothing and being killed in a minute, again and again and again. I wonder how fast the red players will find something better to do with their time, money and frustration.
thinking about it, the Kpz 07 RH is like a E25 at tier 8, but with a turret. The fact that it doesn't perform as well is maybe an indicator of the level of play at different tiers, where at T8 most of the playerbase can deal with a E25-like type of threat, where at T7 the playerbase mostly can't ? suppositions, only suppositions..
These changes are the reason I've stopped playing WoT. Super fast LTs, invisible TDs that can obliterate you in three shots, invincible HTs racing around that you can only pen with premium rounds. Makes me sick. Sometimes, when I look back at the seven plus years I played, I almost feel like I was robbed of the money I put in for the premium time and tanks that I purchased. Nothing but an endless cycle of firing gold rounds that cost ten times as much, so now you have to buy premium tanks to earn extra silver because tech tanks don't really turn a profit unless you're a really good player, and the account time for the bonus XP to make that grind through the low tech levels just a little less horrendous. The whole idea of "Skillful Play" went out the window when some random noob with more money than yearning for self improvement would plant an "F*** You" round right through your perfect hull down location with a smooth brain laugh, and sucked all the fun with it. Frankly, WG should have just charged a monthly fee and been honest about how much they wanted our money.
I am fine with being free to play player.Just have a big smile when someone is shooting gold at you.Fuck em.If i get to koll premium tank,even beter.Sometimes it is realy stupid seeing my shels bounce 3 out of 4 times,but again,fuck it.
The same gun on this vehicle was actually on and used in combat by the Hetzer. In the game the Hetzer doesn’t have this option. It did make the vehicle nose heavy, but it also did that to the Jgdpz IV with the same gun and has that option in game.
@@DarkMaidenFlan It really isn't. The two versions have either a 88 or 105 gun, not the 75 I was thinking of and consequently are missing in DPM. Also, mobility and stealth are lacking in comparison.
@@Steamrick oh sure the guns aren't really comparable. No doubt about that. But im not sure were thinking of the same kanonenjagdpanzer suddenly. Mine has a phenomenal concealment at still concealment range of 202 meters, and it does 70 kph.
For a light tank that is certainly the case. You just have to reprogram yourself to back up immediately after firing, and not wait for 6th sense signal.
I wonder if I should use optics or binocs on my E25? I only have 406m view range with optics, much worse crew and consumables etc. than Quickybaby's version.
Fun fact, consumables, BIA and vents boost concealment too... If you play with bond vents you get even MORE camo, now replace the optics with the exhaust systems, and get situational awareness and recon, and you won't NEED optics, at 421 viewrange, but now even MORE impossible to detect, on the move too!
I have one but almost never play it, that 75mm gun seems to bounce off most targets or blows tracks instead. And people rarely seem to take advantage of an immobilized vehicle.
An easy way to adequately solve this issue without directly nerfing the vehicle is to simply put a "cap" on camo rating just as there is on view range.
That would still cause returns, lawsuits, and a lot of lost money for WG. They do not want that. Besides, it being OP is a good way to market it. It being 'uniquely OP' is even better for marketing. WG will never nerf it. It's a literal cash cow.
@@naclcube6558 That wouldn't be a direct nerf to the vehicle making it a very viable option. The only thing they'd have to do is give you some kind of a benefit for going over the mentioned "cap" for camo, just like when you go over the view range cap you get camo penetration. It wouldn't be a nerf, per se, but an actual total game mechanic change. (Like the HE round changes)
Everyone's always living in the past when they say E 25 is op, personally i'd say SU-122-44 is OP compared to the E 25 because it does 390 damage every 6 seconds and has enough armor to bounce equal tier tanks while also having good mobility. The only thing that's putting me off from playing the SU-122-44 is the view range You also forgot to mention how tanks have way more armor at tier 6-8 (new tanks that were added after E 25) so the 194 gold pen falls flat so hard nowadays
exactly, nowadays u pretty much always face tier 8 and the low penetration of the tank really holds it back there. This video shows a favorable situation where there are just soft targets, but you will also get rounds where you cant penetrate shit even with the gold rounds.
6:38 actually the worst MM for this tank is T7-+T8. Here there were T6s, so this is a very good MM. In my IS-6, getting a full T8 or a T8+T9 MM is pretty sad because I'm underpowered against everyone, but as soon as there are lower tiers in the match, even if there are also higher tiers at the same time, the MM become manageable.
Well spoken Francis. He can call it toxic all he wants, he should be forced to play it over and over on tier 8 lobbies on himmelsdorf to see just how not toxic it can be lol.
At the end you can see the only drawback of this tank against IS3: poor penetration. P.S. E25 is actually a good rammer against light tanks and a deadly opponent if you hug a tall tank with poor gun depression because of his small size.
In America the Premium shop sale with all of the extras they had on the E-25 meant that the $74.99 cost subtracting the Free Bundle Contents value of $100.00 meant that YOU MADE A $25.00 PROFIT.
If you truly believe this is such a bad and OP tank and shouldnt be sold then why are you advertising how good it is which makes people want to buy it?
He's clearly pointing out the fact the tank is overpowered and is not encouraging people to buy it in my opinion. It's just a never ending buzzing mosquito 🦟
@@Tobertus Yeah and he made this advert for the tank as it returned to the shop. Dont be so easily fooled. this is nothing but an advert to encourage people to go out and buy it.
Did they change something with the camouflageof the E25 in the last patch? I have nearly the same settings for my E25 (just miss 50 % the camouflageskill on one crewmember) but my camouflage is 64,77/22,74 standing and 31,4/11,04 while moving. QB you have 71,27/25,02 standing and 35,29/12,39 while moving. @Quickybaby did you know what happend?
Exactly what I was thinking... And it's only OP when your top tier which is 25% of the time... Imagine fighting in this tonk against borrasque and 3 Lt432 ebr on each team...I say it's far from OP with the kind of matchmaking that we are having...
Yeah they could give the E25 a 1 second reload and it still wouldn't be close to being as op as that blasted overpowered M44 (or actually arty in general). The M44 is basically a leFH at tier 6 and that one is beyond op. Just go to tier 6 and u will see that there are basically always three arties on every team and 80 percent of those being M44s. Now tell me again the M44 is not op. Arty in general is overpowered as fck and should not exist in the first place.
I've bought a few tanks of all tiers but this one will always be my favorite it's so much fun. They should add an automated "what the fuck?" audio cue whenever the enemy gets hit by this tank. lol
Rly? We have issues with - goldammo - wheeled tanks - OP reward tanks in randoms - game turned into a 5:15 simulator and you complain about a rare TD which is so diffucult to play that you hardly see it at all on the battlefield? You are losing connection to the player base, my friend….
Yeah he also fails to mention it's small ammo capacity. I have one. You run out of ammo all the time. He also complains about it's speed when Wargaming nerfed it's speed in the first patch after it was introduced. It was faster. Maybe something like 7% faster than it is now. Back when I still played I used it more as a scout tank instead of a TD.
He gets special rng but more likely jist only showed that one game that rng said YES OH YES. Seriously mine doesnt even hit 3 in a row sometimes when im sitting still and have fully aimed.
If you dont like E25 in the game, because its op, then they should remove clan wars tanks too, from the random games. Nothing like fighting good players, getting even better with op reward tanks
Love my E 25! But I’m a casual scrub with it. I simply use it as a credit printer and when I’m feeling down and just want to have a good game where I annoy the heck out of my enemy. I don’t remember the exact stats of my camo rating but the bar slider thing says that I have 1,117 into concealment. Yeah, I’m pretty much a ghost while I’m driving this tank. And I hardly ever have trouble dealing with them. Most players that drive these seem to be potato brained. Easy shutdowns for me. Thanks again, Mr. Quickybaby!
The little tank I always wanted. I haven’t played in months, even more surprised this video popped in my feed as I haven’t watched any WoT in months as well. Did a quick looksie on the website and was shocked they were selling it. I just wanna go zoom zoom, I’m a decent player but not the best by far and not claiming to be. Just wanna have fun with my friends to meme around in MM and well now it’ll be a better time. I don’t know when I’ll redownload the game but when I do, I’ll have this tank in my garage!
I'm thankful that I earned my E25 from the game event where you got it for free. It's the only one I ever felt inclined to finish and I love rolling with it from time to time.
What are tiers V and VI thinking about this TD? Sometimes nothing much actually. Like I was playing German tier VI arty and had to play a little "cat and mouse" with E25, killed it in close quarters, because I'm used to play arty close to front lines and live the rush of close encounters, while E25 players are often overconfident.
when i first saw e25 never knew it was op, i used to play kv-2 a lot and e25 for me was like a snack, obviously when in open maps facing e25 was a nightmare
I pften play the E25 as a rush spotter: I take binocs, a camo net and vents with a concealment directive, a 100% camo-brothers in arms crew. It has 76% camo when holding still with a viewrange of 460.I rush into the middle of Malinowka or Prokharovka and just do nothing for 5 min and get like 3-4k assists and mostly 1-2k dmg each round. The thing about that is you spend even less mmcredits for shooting and get even more!
Got it in one of 25 boxes 3 years ago as the only high tier premium. Was bit disappointed as I'm not good at sitting in bushes so don't have good results on it. If I see it, I try to ram it ;) Small gun arc and elevation/depression is also weakness of this TD but yeah camo is insane. You notice it once you step on it.
I will always think this is horrible advice. Too many games where people try to go hard, fail, and blow the game. Teammates want to go for all kills, that's fine.. But once I'm on cap I'm not leaving and they have however much time remaining to do it. That tryhard bullshit is not my concern. My responsibility is to win, not farm frags. Can't get that last kill? Sorry pal, just "git gud" and quit crying.
early on i used toolbox, camo net, binoculars on everything (even on heavies) with a good win rate... i think because you can play more conservatively and still have an impact on both early and late game.
The e25 is pretty inovative imo, its the only 60 round autoloader in the game
Now now, the Cromwell exists too, as well as a premium Berlin variant. But yea, the E-25's gun is sick. Could be worse, I remember when it wasn't a limited tank. When it was just IN the shop. (That's, in fact, when I bought mine.)
Yet he should have more bullets

@@juanjodpr true, forgot to consider those light Armor op tanks, that’s my bad; but for certain areas, it really is not good for a td that doesn’t have a turret, it could rely on its high camo value, but not too long if your opponent is getting too annoyed and they either decide to rush you or simply just change the area they attack, depending on how many defenders are in the same area with you (and that’s only the defending case because I cannot think of any situations that defenders are using loads of light armor tanks trying to rush and die just to defend the cap against the attackers, so if the opponent are smart enough, I’d say e25 is situationally good but still not a better choice compare to skorp (I mean every tank has its weakness, that puts all the tanks into the situationally good area, but the turret that skorp has gives more opportunities for it so it could use more positions, not to mention that e25 is easily affected by some small slope, unless you are willing to stand on top of it, without the bush to cover or you just abandon the position)
@@Simon-jj3jk The most similar tank was the Kanonen90 before it was buffed to its 105mm gun version, pretty much an E25 a tier higher. The lack of penetration was the problem as well as the lack of dpm (as it is still now). I'd say those fast tanks could be used to rapidly conquer a flank which was left uncovered, taking profit from some holes in the enemy lines in the Frontline mode, something that usually happens, specially when people keep on sending tanks and losing them until they realize they can't send any other tank and they must wait. I mean, rather than the E25 I would go with the LT-432, pretty much same mobility and better armor and good dpm but still the amount of weakly armored tanks in the Frontlines sometimes rewards you a lot if you sue HE.
Making a video like this just makes even more people go buy it when its for sale GJ QB.
Yea, watching QB master this game made me want to go get one myself. lol. Hopefully, I can resist, or should I?
@@AndrewWhiteKhanty Don't forget that QB shows the E25 in a favourable situation. Nowadays you will pretty much always have tier 8 tanks in ur battles and in this video he mostly shot lower and equal tiers. If you face tier 8 tanks it can quite easily be the case that u cant penetrate frontally at all, even with gold. This can be quite frustrating. QB makes this tank look way more op than it actually is. Sure when u are top tier this tank is a beast, but against tier 8s it is rather the opposite unless u can get their sides or rears.
If somebody says something people complain and when nobody does people still complain
I dont mind the e-25s. For every good player there are thousands who have no clue how to use it, and are easy prey.
I wouldn’t say they are easy prey. But maybe like that fly that is really hard to see but also very slow to move around. Sure you’re gonna get them eventually, but it would take you a bit longer than a pest that is much easier to spot.
I think another saving grace is that it is a meme tank. Its funny, so I don't mind them either.
Yeah, hardly a scary tank on the battlefield.
@@ZafrasF yep, not scary, just obnoxious. And it would be better if they weren’t let into the house at all. But sometimes Wargaming leaves the back door open and forgets to put the screen up. And every time Wargaming gets caught they are like, “we know you don’t like the flies, we won’t do it again. Don’t worry”
@@tankerbruja good metaphor
That's tough. QB videos makes me want to get back to WoT, but each time I get back to WoT, I do a game, it ends with only one or two hit... sometimes, and I get brutally ravaged whatever the tier I am playing. Not only new players, returning players have an attrocious time to get back in the game. :/
I was waiting for this video as soon as i saw it's in the shop :D
I won the E25 during Christmas, and I hated it!! I would charge in and sports and circle enemies and die!!
Now I understand. Shoot from afar. Remain unsorted. Thanks for the tip to do well, QB
Now imagine someone having grinded through the British medium line and putting a 3 skill crew in his Centurion AX, thinking the fun is about to start as a top tier and in reality getting into a world of constantly being hammered by Object 430Us with 5 skill crews, upped bounty equipment and level 10 field maintenance. Must be like having to play E25s all the time: hitting nothing and being killed in a minute, again and again and again. I wonder how fast the red players will find something better to do with their time, money and frustration.
E25 was the first premium tank that I bought 7 years ago, and it's one of my favorite tank in all the game. Probably the best premium tank ever sold
Lol I can't believe they put the e25 over and over again in the store..
Doesnt help when QB tells everyone how absolutely great it is so they go out and buy it, thus encouraging WG to continue to sell it.
Because it makes them stupid money.
thinking about it, the Kpz 07 RH is like a E25 at tier 8, but with a turret. The fact that it doesn't perform as well is maybe an indicator of the level of play at different tiers, where at T8 most of the playerbase can deal with a E25-like type of threat, where at T7 the playerbase mostly can't ? suppositions, only suppositions..
These changes are the reason I've stopped playing WoT. Super fast LTs, invisible TDs that can obliterate you in three shots, invincible HTs racing around that you can only pen with premium rounds. Makes me sick. Sometimes, when I look back at the seven plus years I played, I almost feel like I was robbed of the money I put in for the premium time and tanks that I purchased. Nothing but an endless cycle of firing gold rounds that cost ten times as much, so now you have to buy premium tanks to earn extra silver because tech tanks don't really turn a profit unless you're a really good player, and the account time for the bonus XP to make that grind through the low tech levels just a little less horrendous. The whole idea of "Skillful Play" went out the window when some random noob with more money than yearning for self improvement would plant an "F*** You" round right through your perfect hull down location with a smooth brain laugh, and sucked all the fun with it. Frankly, WG should have just charged a monthly fee and been honest about how much they wanted our money.
I am fine with being free to play player.Just have a big smile when someone is shooting gold at you.Fuck em.If i get to koll premium tank,even beter.Sometimes it is realy stupid seeing my shels bounce 3 out of 4 times,but again,fuck it.
The same gun on this vehicle was actually on and used in combat by the Hetzer. In the game the Hetzer doesn’t have this option. It did make the vehicle nose heavy, but it also did that to the Jgdpz IV with the same gun and has that option in game.
Isn’t there like some guy on the NA forums obsessed with the E25?? lol
It’s my most played tank lul
cringe lord yuno gasai. That guy would get clowned on the forums back in the day
@@Emot10nsOh my god, that name is what I was tryna remember lol, gross.
Imagine the E25 at tier 8 with the L/100 (long) gun from the Panther...
Already exists.
Kanonenjagdpanzer 😌
@@DarkMaidenFlan It really isn't. The two versions have either a 88 or 105 gun, not the 75 I was thinking of and consequently are missing in DPM. Also, mobility and stealth are lacking in comparison.
@@Steamrick oh sure the guns aren't really comparable. No doubt about that.
But im not sure were thinking of the same kanonenjagdpanzer suddenly. Mine has a phenomenal concealment at still concealment range of 202 meters, and it does 70 kph.
I'm thinking low noise exhaust might be better than the camo net.
For a light tank that is certainly the case. You just have to reprogram yourself to back up immediately after firing, and not wait for 6th sense signal.
I wonder if I should use optics or binocs on my E25? I only have 406m view range with optics, much worse crew and consumables etc. than Quickybaby's version.
Germany could of won if they just used E25s
lmao
underrated comment XD
Instead of mass producing Stugs, they could have mass produced these
Fun fact, consumables, BIA and vents boost concealment too... If you play with bond vents you get even MORE camo, now replace the optics with the exhaust systems, and get situational awareness and recon, and you won't NEED optics, at 421 viewrange, but now even MORE impossible to detect, on the move too!
Sorry but did you ever tried to fight versus newer tier 8 heavies e.g Defender etc? Even with Gold it is hard to manage a 1 vs 1.
I have one but almost never play it, that 75mm gun seems to bounce off most targets or blows tracks instead. And people rarely seem to take advantage of an immobilized vehicle.
Imagine this with the crew 2.0 concealment and instructors....
This is absolutely the best ad from Wargaming on purchasing the E25. Thanks.
>Russian Bias
>E-25 is Balans cuz not Russian ))))
Wonder if it will get Nerfed?
I did not know that it had preferential status keeping it from being 'low tier'. What other tanks do?
Thank you.
When are you gonna do a video on 1.13???
Against t8, it peforms poorly due to the low pen gun. Yes, against t5,6, yeah op. But how often do you see t5 in current MM?
Love the gold spam, let's show how good the e25 is by not needing to really aim for weak spots
Which sort of proves his point. Even with unnecessary gold spam he makes a profit
An easy way to adequately solve this issue without directly nerfing the vehicle is to simply put a "cap" on camo rating just as there is on view range.
That would still cause returns, lawsuits, and a lot of lost money for WG. They do not want that. Besides, it being OP is a good way to market it. It being 'uniquely OP' is even better for marketing.
WG will never nerf it. It's a literal cash cow.
@@naclcube6558 That wouldn't be a direct nerf to the vehicle making it a very viable option.
The only thing they'd have to do is give you some kind of a benefit for going over the mentioned "cap" for camo, just like when you go over the view range cap you get camo penetration. It wouldn't be a nerf, per se, but an actual total game mechanic change. (Like the HE round changes)
It's not that op in nowadays game since preferential mm is far worse now than it was 5 years ago, still a beast of a TD
I don't think its OP but its broken cuz of camo
Everyone's always living in the past when they say E 25 is op, personally i'd say SU-122-44 is OP compared to the E 25 because it does 390 damage every 6 seconds and has enough armor to bounce equal tier tanks while also having good mobility. The only thing that's putting me off from playing the SU-122-44 is the view range
You also forgot to mention how tanks have way more armor at tier 6-8 (new tanks that were added after E 25) so the 194 gold pen falls flat so hard nowadays
exactly, nowadays u pretty much always face tier 8 and the low penetration of the tank really holds it back there. This video shows a favorable situation where there are just soft targets, but you will also get rounds where you cant penetrate shit even with the gold rounds.
@@ToniFalck I agree, even in the old days I still think Stalin's Hammer was better, it's my one and only premoum vehicle till this day for a reason :)
Team:"Low on numbers about to cap base in 10sec's"
That one player:"haha tank go reverse"
Take out Wheeled sh*t tanks and then I would consider my E25 op.
Haven't even watched the video yet but couple this with the new bounty low noise exhaust for maximum OP ness
Releasing this video while the tank is on sale in the shop lol, at least you aren't hiding it anymore.
6:38 actually the worst MM for this tank is T7-+T8. Here there were T6s, so this is a very good MM. In my IS-6, getting a full T8 or a T8+T9 MM is pretty sad because I'm underpowered against everyone, but as soon as there are lower tiers in the match, even if there are also higher tiers at the same time, the MM become manageable.
IS6 has too be the most sadest tank in the game....
I've had the e25 for years. I'll say one thing:
Not every map is an open map.
That's all I want to say
Well spoken Francis.
He can call it toxic all he wants, he should be forced to play it over and over on tier 8 lobbies on himmelsdorf to see just how not toxic it can be lol.
@@DarkMaidenFlan it’s strong as shit....stop
@@jacobbridges5143 no. Its not a toxic tank. The seal clubbing stat patters who camp low tiers in it are whats toxic.
You stop 😐
@@DarkMaidenFlan link me your profile
could you review the 215b and if its still competitive/worth the bonds?
Just have tanks like this to not be able to use those certain equipment and such.
At the end you can see the only drawback of this tank against IS3: poor penetration.
P.S. E25 is actually a good rammer against light tanks and a deadly opponent if you hug a tall tank with poor gun depression because of his small size.
If they ever do crew 2.0 it will destroy this game into Oblivion, and not the fun Elder Scrolls Oblivion.
In America the Premium shop sale with all of the extras they had on the E-25 meant that the $74.99 cost subtracting the Free Bundle Contents value of $100.00 meant that YOU MADE A $25.00 PROFIT.
If you truly believe this is such a bad and OP tank and shouldnt be sold then why are you advertising how good it is which makes people want to buy it?
He's clearly pointing out the fact the tank is overpowered and is not encouraging people to buy it in my opinion. It's just a never ending buzzing mosquito 🦟
@@Tobertus Yeah and he made this advert for the tank as it returned to the shop. Dont be so easily fooled. this is nothing but an advert to encourage people to go out and buy it.
Did they change something with the camouflageof the E25 in the last patch? I have nearly the same settings for my E25 (just miss 50 % the camouflageskill on one crewmember) but my camouflage is 64,77/22,74 standing and 31,4/11,04 while moving. QB you have 71,27/25,02 standing and 35,29/12,39 while moving. @Quickybaby did you know what happend?
How much money did QB get from Wargaming for promoting the E25 when it very conveniently is on sale in the shop? =)
Exactly what I was thinking... And it's only OP when your top tier which is 25% of the time... Imagine fighting in this tonk against borrasque and 3 Lt432 ebr on each team...I say it's far from OP with the kind of matchmaking that we are having...
this tank was here long ago ,so now that you highlighted it it will now be all over the game thanks QBs big mouth
Ah, but they will nerf the M44…no problem.
Yeah they could give the E25 a 1 second reload and it still wouldn't be close to being as op as that blasted overpowered M44 (or actually arty in general). The M44 is basically a leFH at tier 6 and that one is beyond op. Just go to tier 6 and u will see that there are basically always three arties on every team and 80 percent of those being M44s. Now tell me again the M44 is not op. Arty in general is overpowered as fck and should not exist in the first place.
O-Ni also has an OP camo bonus - its camo does not decrease when moving even though it is a heavy.
Yes but the O-Ni is about 25 times bigger than an E-25...
Add low noise exhaust system instead of optics + bond ventilation
I've bought a few tanks of all tiers but this one will always be my favorite it's so much fun. They should add an automated "what the fuck?" audio cue whenever the enemy gets hit by this tank. lol
Rly?
We have issues with
- goldammo
- wheeled tanks
- OP reward tanks in randoms
- game turned into a 5:15 simulator
and you complain about a rare TD which is so diffucult to play that you hardly see it at all on the battlefield?
You are losing connection to the player base, my friend….
Yeah he also fails to mention it's small ammo capacity.
I have one. You run out of ammo all the time.
He also complains about it's speed when Wargaming nerfed it's speed in the first patch after it was introduced. It was faster. Maybe something like 7% faster than it is now.
Back when I still played I used it more as a scout tank instead of a TD.
I really love how he doesn't miss hitting a single shot...even on the move...ON THE MOVE!
He gets special rng but more likely jist only showed that one game that rng said YES OH YES. Seriously mine doesnt even hit 3 in a row sometimes when im sitting still and have fully aimed.
If you dont like E25 in the game, because its op, then they should remove clan wars tanks too, from the random games. Nothing like fighting good players, getting even better with op reward tanks
Love my E 25! But I’m a casual scrub with it. I simply use it as a credit printer and when I’m feeling down and just want to have a good game where I annoy the heck out of my enemy. I don’t remember the exact stats of my camo rating but the bar slider thing says that I have 1,117 into concealment. Yeah, I’m pretty much a ghost while I’m driving this tank.
And I hardly ever have trouble dealing with them. Most players that drive these seem to be potato brained. Easy shutdowns for me.
Thanks again, Mr. Quickybaby!
Wot has gone to shit
I agree with you, QB. Thank you for speaking on our behalf.
For the super hellcat, the camo net was not yet activated. It activates halfway into the reload.
Is this why experimental ammunition which made you lose less consilment while fireing got removed from equipment 2.0?
The little tank I always wanted. I haven’t played in months, even more surprised this video popped in my feed as I haven’t watched any WoT in months as well. Did a quick looksie on the website and was shocked they were selling it. I just wanna go zoom zoom, I’m a decent player but not the best by far and not claiming to be. Just wanna have fun with my friends to meme around in MM and well now it’ll be a better time. I don’t know when I’ll redownload the game but when I do, I’ll have this tank in my garage!
I'm thankful that I earned my E25 from the game event where you got it for free. It's the only one I ever felt inclined to finish and I love rolling with it from time to time.
People complain less about it cause it's tier 5, but I think the French premium arty is more op. Also, E25 bothers me much less than bourrasque.
What are tiers V and VI thinking about this TD? Sometimes nothing much actually. Like I was playing German tier VI arty and had to play a little "cat and mouse" with E25, killed it in close quarters, because I'm used to play arty close to front lines and live the rush of close encounters, while E25 players are often overconfident.
when i first saw e25 never knew it was op, i used to play kv-2 a lot and e25 for me was like a snack, obviously when in open maps facing e25 was a nightmare
Nice add for the E25 there, how much did WG pay you for helping them boost the sales ?
I pften play the E25 as a rush spotter:
I take binocs, a camo net and vents with a concealment directive, a 100% camo-brothers in arms crew. It has 76% camo when holding still with a viewrange of 460.I rush into the middle of Malinowka or Prokharovka and just do nothing for 5 min and get like 3-4k assists and mostly 1-2k dmg each round. The thing about that is you spend even less mmcredits for shooting and get even more!
On vehs that I used to put cam nets on, I now use the Muffler instead, unless the veh is more campy etc ;)
Pretty much stopped playing almost 2 years ago. When i do play, its either my E- 25 or my jig tig.
3:49 noo rip the electric box for tank battery 😥
does anyone know if you can buy the amx cdc or the t34 anymore ? asking cuz i don't see them in the shop anymore neither in the tech tree
I rarely get situations where I can shoot unspotted like that, and I run bond vents as well.
Got it in one of 25 boxes 3 years ago as the only high tier premium. Was bit disappointed as I'm not good at sitting in bushes so don't have good results on it. If I see it, I try to ram it ;) Small gun arc and elevation/depression is also weakness of this TD but yeah camo is insane. You notice it once you step on it.
I always cringe when I see one of these on the enemy team. But quietly celebrate when there's one on mine. Lol
QB try the low noise exhaust system instead of cammo net. It's insane.
QB "This should not exist in world of tanks" me: French tech tree wheels. should not exist, in the first place.
Few things in world of tanks feel as good as pumping a round with the kv-2 into this pancake
QB says: It's actually a good idea to reset cap and "No cap kill all" if you think your team is going to win. Spoken like a true UNICOM. Rock on man.
I will always think this is horrible advice. Too many games where people try to go hard, fail, and blow the game.
Teammates want to go for all kills, that's fine.. But once I'm on cap I'm not leaving and they have however much time remaining to do it. That tryhard bullshit is not my concern.
My responsibility is to win, not farm frags. Can't get that last kill? Sorry pal, just "git gud" and quit crying.
early on i used toolbox, camo net, binoculars on everything (even on heavies) with a good win rate... i think because you can play more conservatively and still have an impact on both early and late game.
How should I spec the e25 now after 2.0? I want to be better then the best so to say.
I have an unusual setup in my e25. Using turbo, optics and rotation mech or grousers. I prefer to play it as as a spotter
6:13 the entire wot sorted down to 1 line of words^^
I would recommend vents, bino and camo, regardless if you are free to play or not
Glad my only WoT experience is through this channel lol. Never would expect to see balancing this bad outside of war thunder
Looking forward to the bounty LNE. Plan on mounting on my E-25 immediately.
I love my E-25 we call it them La cucarachas! I think i got my camo into the %40s if I'm not mistaken but I don't play that tank that often.
