Top of the Tree: 121

Source: EU Portal

Let us give you some Chinese wisdom – one shell at a time! The latest Top of the Tree special focuses on the Chinese medium line and a Tier X medium that’s ready to play with the big boys.

The  X 121  is a mighty beast for a medium with its powerful 122mm gun – a calibre more commonly seen on a heavy tank. This firepower gives it fantastic alpha damage value and the best AP penetration of the 120-122 mm guns on medium tanks.

Meanwhile, the 80 mm side armor is ideal for deflecting shots while sidescraping and the excellent traverse speed make it a great support vehicle for your team’s heavies and better than its predecessor, the WZ-120. Yet, while the low profile is an alluring characteristic, make sure to stick to flat areas as the slow acceleration does not suit hilly terrain.

Wrestle your way to victory from October 5 at 07:00 CEST through November 5 at 07:00 CEST (UTC+2) and take advantage of great discounts and missions all the way to the top. Don’t forget that you can also purchase an extra boost if you really want to speed things up!

Available from October 5 at 07:00 CEST through November 5 at 07:00 CEST (UTC+2)

For a month, you’ll have something to fight for every day! This includes x5 XP per vehicle every day, Crew XP bonuses, and other significant rewards to help you reach Tier X. You can find more information about the missions below:

Last Waffentrager Mode – Fake Players?

We got emailed by a reader, ZeNyK:

„Hello. I did a bit of research about this mode, and I was thinking that Wargaming is doing something very irresponsible for all of their playerbase. 

First of all, I got some matches in the T-55 and everything went just horrible, with players shooting only the Waffentrager from the first second of the battle, and that made me make a more deeper research inside the mode.

First battle (screen1) in this research was a victory, and looking in every one of my teammates profiles everything was ok, with a personal score from 3000 to 7500 approx.

But, in the second battle (screen2), and there is the interesting result of my little research, my team was amazingly a tomato team. I wanted to see the profile of every single player from my team, and even going to wot-life.com to see many more details, and surprise. Two of my teammates (pleyerq and suavi123), both of them played ONLY 1 MATCH in the last 30 days.

That put me in a very annoyed state, and thinking that Wargaming is using user accounts like bots, and making matchmaking for the other players to enjoy (not really, thinking that they are bots). From my point of view that is a big offense for players like me, who play more than 600+ matches per month.

Today I played 6 matches, and in one of the matches got this:

Both were in a platoon, the second one didn’t even exist as an account, and the first one played 3 matches in the last month…..and finished with 2500 dmg….in a mode were it is easy to make 10k….
Pathetic by Wargaming to do this…”

Update 1.10.1: “Dobrynya Nikitich” 3D style for Object 705A – Extra Pictures

The style is treated as non-historical, valued at 5,000 gold.

Suitable for vehicles: Object 705A.

Description:

— I’ll tell you what happened, Nikita Romanovich. The day before yesterday, we had to camp out on the bank of the Smorodina, a river near our foothold. That area is a swamp, a marsh infested not only with cranberries but snakes as well. We had no choice though since we couldn’t move at night. Those creepy critters were so smart that they slithered into our tanks to get warm. In the morning, the entire company was combat ineffective. No one wanted to share their tank with snakes as those vipers were too dangerous to shut yourself inside with. One bite and that’s the end for you. Your son „volunteered to help. It took him several hours to get them all out. It looked like he was pulling a bunch of twisted wires and cables from the hatches. Knowing they were real snakes made me sweat. That’s why we called him „Snake Slayer”. We wanted to apply the same inscription to his tank, but he was too shy and refused. You raised your son to be so courageous and fearless, Nikita Romanovich. A true bogatyr! Let’s see how he proves himself in battle. Continue reading “Update 1.10.1: “Dobrynya Nikitich” 3D style for Object 705A – Extra Pictures”
