World of Tanks Update 1.5.1 – Your Game Stats at Your Fingertips!

~ Sebastianul

If you want to know how well you’re doing in battle, you need detailed statistics that allow you to closely track your combat performance, including your effectiveness with various vehicles. To make this easier, we’re adding a new feature with Update 1.5.1 called Session Statistics. This addition will help you get lots of useful data regarding your battle performance.

Random Battles on Full Display

Session Statistics will be available right in your Garage, appearing to the left of the Notification Center button.

 

Your daily statistics will be recorded for all Random Battles, excluding Grand Battles, for each game session or each game day.

  • The game session is the time interval from launching the game client until the player manually resets the statistics.
  • The game day is the time period from the reset of the daily activities until the next reset.

Thanks to Session Statistics, you will be able to see detailed combat performance data, including your effectiveness in a specific vehicle. For example, regarding the economic aspects of World of Tanks, you will be able to obtain:

  1. General stats on income (Bonds, Credits, XP and Free XP) per battle
  2. General stats on expenses (Bonds, Credits)

In addition, you will be able to get the most detailed battle statistics for the current game session, including:

  • Average blocked damage
  • Average damage dealt/taken coefficient
  • The average XP gained

Your statistics will be automatically reset once a day. You can also reset them yourself in the game client at any time if you wish.

The Hall of Fame and the WTR Rating  

Session Statistics also gives you direct access to the Hall of Fame, so you can view even more detailed statistics, down to a specific game day or period of time. In addition, Session Statistics allows you to instantly find out your current WTR rating.

NOTE: In 2017 we introduced WTR, a new rating system which calculates an individual rating for each tank, and these vehicle-specific scores are then used to assess a player’s overall performance. This rating responds flexibly to changes of combat strategy as it evaluates your stats against average indicators across the server. So, after you select a tank, it ranks your performance indicators according to their relevance for the particular vehicle

 

WTR is a much more informative and complex rating system compared to Win Rate or other ratings which neglect a vehicle’s nuances. WTR delivers the most relevant stats, while these other rating systems lack the criteria needed to determine if a player is skillful or just plays in different modes. Now you can find out your average WTR for the entire session or for a different time period.

In addition to quick and easy access via Session Statistics, we’ve also added the following to the Hall of Fame:

  • Your lifetime game statistics
  • Daily fluctuations in overall statistics

Delta: Measuring Your Performance

Session Statistics will help you understand how your current game session has affected your lifetime stats, thanks to a metric called “Delta”. In mathematics, “Delta” is the difference between two values. In our case, the “Delta” being measured is the impact of the battles in your current session on your lifetime battle stats.

Thanks to these Delta metrics, you can find out if you’ve played better or worse than usual by evaluating your performance with the following parameters:

  • Difference between the average damage done during the current session and your lifetime average damage
  • Difference between average experience for all battles based on current statistics and average experience for all battles excluding the current session
  • Difference between WTR for all your battles during the current session and WTR for all battles, excluding the current session

Detailed Statistics on Your Vehicles

Session Statistics gives you access to detailed statistics on the vehicles you’ve played. You can check on:

  • The total number of battles you’ve played in this vehicle throughout the session
  • The difference between the vehicle’s average WTR for all battles during the current session and the vehicle’s average WTR for all battles, excluding the current session

Finally, Session Statistics provides quick access to the following information via vehicle tooltip:

  • Mark of Excellence progress (in %)
  • The amount of XP earned by a player with this vehicle throughout the session
  • The amount of Credits earned with this vehicle for all battles throughout the session
  • The ratio of damage dealt/received throughout the session

Knowledge is power, Commanders! Take advantage of the wide functionality of Session Statistics to be more effective on the battlefield!
