I loved that tank up until about 40 battles ago. Guys. I won't be gone forever. I just need a break. It could be a week it could be a month. I don't know. I'm just tired of trying so damn hard. I went 2 for 8 today. When you end up ticked off more often than not when you're done playing its time to take a step back and enjoy other things. Eta: most of those games I had less than 350 DMG dealt one was zero. I blame JB for quitting and passing his bad luck to me Quote HistoryQuoted:

I was annoyed too, the secret I've found is to find out where the TDs are going to camp, and then go scout within their field of fire. I've gotten over 8K spotting damage in my T21 doing this on fisherman's bay on the west valley. If they don't seem to want to set up in a position where you can help them, just keep a low profile till the end game and start pulling single tanks out of the herd and circling them to death. If my team is just completely sucking, I go hide until I can find an opening and then go murder arty and TDs, it's selfish as hell, but what else can you do in pub games, it's damn near impossible to spot for the lemming trains that form.

If you are a light who fucking hides, GET FUCKED.  Havent been...... Until now but Im starting as Tired as you are of it..... and I was too until I started playing them..... im WAY FREAKING TIRED OF SPOTTING SHIT For minutes and it never getting shot.... and not because its out of view range or hiding..... Nah the E100 is too hard to pen and that waffle may shoot me if I get spotted shooting at him and well the scouts were lit so arty was shooting AT them ... Scouts are interesting not only do you have to do your job but you have to HOPE like hell most of the team then decides.... hey look he lit shit lets kill it..... and today....... Ive gotten more damage than I have spotting damage by 3X from now on.... im in it for ME after a few min if the team looks like it has a brain,. MAYBE.

Okay, the crew training sale is almost over, and I still haven't decided which of my Russian lights is going to get the gold crew. Can't decide which tank will be more worthwhile going into the future. Anybody know what sort of crew out the new 9.3 Russian lights are projected to have? Maybe that'll help make my decision easier.
Any advice from folks who've run these tanks would be greatly appreciated. |

Finally in the e75 groove. I lost a FULL 6% percent in recent win rates and 300 win8 grinding the panther and king tiger. I did not free exp the tanks to the e75. What a shirt grind thou the king wasn't half as bad s the panther. But the grind is over and it's worth it. The win8 is coming back up as in the win rate, along with my avg tier played and damage, and the only cash I gave war gaming was for my crew traingings 3 over

Got first set of barrel stripes on the Jagdtiger! Almost there on the Lowe as well. Probably a matter of time on the Cent 7/1 as much as I love that tank.
And yeah, my WR is steadily declining. I'm not going to quit or stat pad just to affect it, but it does kind of suck. Trying to grind low tiers like the KV-1s and the Church VII have been murder on winning. I just can't affect the outcome on those games most of the time, since the Church is slow and low armor it high tier games, and the 1s still has the 75mm gun. I think for now I'll stick to the Cent 7, E50, and IndPz as my focus, and I've been doing the Leopard light tank to try and get into driving scouts. Looks like I need to get the M5 stuart back as well and work on that line too. |

I watched that, and my take away was that I like your play style: kind of aggressive, but you cautiously duck behind cover after nearly every shot. As soon as the video ended, I loaded up my Chaffee, free XP'd the engine and top engine (huge improvement) and loaded onto Fjords, from the South. Drove up into the middle, and was overrun by a 10 enemy tanks swarming the middle, and was killed after getting 300 dmg.

In fact I just put a complete crew in my IS8 minus the loader, all from lights with 1.5 skills.... just a thought but if you have a lot of premi russian lights. |

I really liked the IS, and would contend that with a good driver, is a better Tier 7 than that T29 given that T29's obvious weakness in the hull. The T29 still dominates with its gun depresion and strong turret armor, so is probably more "playable" for most folks, but I still really like the IS. Just wait till you get the IS3! |

Just platoon with it if you can find anyone who will suffere with you. That or just play it for the x2 and be a PURE scout. The only thing that it can reliably kill is arty or ther scouts. If you see anything else, RUN. A 1390 it isn't. |

I will free XP whatever is not done by that time. that tank is just a pure TURD, its not quick, its not fast, its not armored, It has no gun above T6 unless you can absolutely get lucky and hit them in the arse or side and it actually pens, its not really maneuverable.... Yea I will Free whatever is left of it. may do the same with the T21 |

It STILL SUCKS it would be a decent tank if it just had SOMETHING for a GUN....... Not GOOD.... but decent... the other thing about scouts is how the hell am I supposed to do something when there are T+2 and T+3 scouts with me and against me...... Faster, more agile more view range, better guns.... that just sucks because you cant out scout a higher teir tank with a driver on your level and most of the time you cant kill a higher tier with = driver..... Chaffee is about to get equalized with other Tier 5 scouts, and it will get the current MM scout lineup instead of the shit sandwich it currently gets. Allegedly they are going to buff existing same tier scouts as well (like the T71 and such). Sounds like a major win for those of us that like to do stupid things in fast/invisible tanks.... Yup wondering if its really worth it to spend the Free XP on it right now.... If they are going to lower the research XP needed....It might be a better Idea to wait and free XP threw it then... I dont know Im kinda late to thinking about this anyway... have to do some more thinnin So how bout the germies and the russies lights? anything there.... The MT is already researched.. Im only on the Leop in the Germ line |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I watched that, and my take away was that I like your play style: kind of aggressive, but you cautiously duck behind cover after nearly every shot. As soon as the video ended, I loaded up my Chaffee, free XP'd the engine and top engine (huge improvement) and loaded onto Fjords, from the South. Drove up into the middle, and was overrun by a 10 enemy tanks swarming the middle, and was killed after getting 300 dmg. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: 10500 wn8 with the chaffee. http://wotreplays.com/site/1110820#fjords-kama_kauzy-m24_chaffee I'm only posting these so others can farm wn8. yea man it's a crap shoot. for every good game I get, I get a bad one. |

Played 17 games last night/early this morning. Winrate jumped to 58%, WIN8 plummeted. I guess that's what I get for playing to grind cash rather than playing because I feel like I want to play.
Anybody interested in maybe setting up some scout classes this week? Maybe take a few of the guys who want to get better at scouting, or are grinding scouts and toon up with some guys in tanks that can and (more importantly) WILL take advantage of having a scout out there spotting? I'm looking at a (God help me) 65K grind to research the M7 and Chaffee in the M5. Took the chance and gold trained the crew this weekend, but the only way I can see to make that turd perform on even a mediocre level is to bring my own shooters rather than relying on random acts of teamwork. Also, got the 2 Russians to finish grinding. |

Using the PZ4 H to get the Exp needed for the Chaffee. Between that and all my Elite or prem tanks i make upwards of 15K exp a day so Chaffee should be mine by Friday Including getting as many modules on it exp'ed  .

Burned out. I thought you where going to be calling stronghold battles? Don't uninstall it's a perishable skill set. Maybe you just need to focus on that and forget platooning and all the other stat bullshit. Calling is not something you can quantify with a fucking purple color. |

My only real avenue to either the M7 or Chaffee is the M5, painful as that sounds. I'm also working on the Russians (A20 and T50), which aren't quite as painful, though solo pubbing them is torturous. |
