Sandbox 2021: Rewards for participating in the test

A short note straight from the WoT website:

This Sandbox test has ended. We are currently transferring tokens to the main server and you will be able to spend them in a special section of the in-game store for rewards. Make sure to collect your Tokens in the Warehouse before going to the store. Remember to spend your tokens before starting the next test, otherwise they will be exchanged for credits at a rate of 1 token = 10,000 credits.

  • At the start of a battle, the squadron launching cooldown will be active, similar to how battles start with main battery guns and torpedo tubes unloaded.

WoWS ST 0.10.2, Big Hunt event, Italian battleships, visual improvements

New temporary battle type, early access to Italian battleships, and other new features in update 0.10.2.

Please note that all information in the development blog is preliminary. Announced adjustments and features may change multiple times during testing.

Big Hunt

In Update 0.10.2, a new temporary battle type “Big Hunt” will be available for players. It’s an updated version of the “Key Battle” from update 0.9.10.

Basic rules

16 players will fight on a giant map – the Polygon – with each other and with monsters controlled by artificial intelligence.

All players will start the battle alone but can assemble a team or join other players as the battle plays out.

It is now possible to go into one battle in a division, but each player still starts the battle alone. Therefore, to play together, the division will still need to find each other on the map and team-up.

The main objective is to leave the Polygon through the portal located in the center of the map. Now you do not need a key to exit the portal.

Big Hunt ends when all surviving players exit through the portal, or when the battle time expires. In the new mode, there will be no final battle in the Octagon.
