(Hellket, Witch) - anti-tank self-propelled artillery (PT-ACS), US tank destroyer during the Second World War. In the computer game World of Tanks, it is an American Tier 6 tank. A distinctive feature of the car is an impressive top speed of 72 km/h.
Last time we considered, today we'll talk about tactics and strategy. But since each tank has its own battle tactics, I will talk about the M18 Hellcat. To date, I have fought more than 1,000 battles on the "witch" with an overall efficiency level of 52%. This, of course, is not 10,000, but it is no longer 300, after which I began to write review articles about the World of Tanks for Rugames.
The main characteristics of the tank, the history of creation, improvements, additional equipment, crew specialization, pros and cons, and much, much more, I will not consider in great detail. All this can be found, corny, on Wikipedia or try it on your own experience. I'll go straight to the point.
Strategy and tactics of the game on the M18 Hellcat
The tank is ideal for shooting from cover and quickly changing positions. The rotating turret allows us to fire at various targets without moving and, accordingly, without the risk of revealing our position. In addition, we have a fairly powerful gun with good penetration.
The Witch initially has a good disguise indicator, so the very first skill that all crew members need to pump is “disguise”. Everyone except the commander. First of all, we download the “sixth sense” or, as the tankers also call it, “Ilyich’s light bulb”. This skill makes the game a lot easier! We no longer need to guess whether the enemy has noticed us or just twists his muzzle back and forth. Even if we do not see the enemy tank, the light bulb will always warn us of the approaching danger.
The rest of the skills are selected individually. From the equipment we need:
- Stereo tube (+25% to vision radius from a stationary tank).
- Camouflage net (-25% to the visibility of a stationary tank).
- Rammer (reduces gun reload time by 10%).
Then comes the gear:
- Repair kit (repairing one damaged module or two damaged tracks).
- First aid kit (heals one incapacitated tanker).
- Fire extinguisher (if you have time to use it).
There is an opinion that the M18 has a very small ammunition load. And this is true if you shoot at everything that moves. In fact, projectiles often remain until the very end of the battle. Some people still think (apparently, after riding medium tanks) that the Hellcat should shine at the very beginning of the battle or rush to the front line, destroying everyone in its path. This is yet another misconception. With cardboard armor, you won't last a minute on the front lines. But what to do?
M18 Hellcat - shooting bush or medium tank?
Hellket is not artillery, not a firefly, and not even a medium tank. This is a fast, accurate and stealthy critter. To begin with, I would strongly recommend that you study, if possible, all the cards available in the WoT arsenal. After all, success when playing the Witch depends, in most cases, on how quickly you can hide.
At the very beginning of the battle, we go to such a place on the map in order to:
- Nearby was a natural shelter from artillery (house, stone, mountain).
- See the enemy during the light.
- See the enemy after your medium and heavy tanks reach him.
- There were several potential places to retreat.
- The enemy, after the elimination of the enemy light (in this, by the way, you must take a direct part), did not see you.
On most maps, you won't get such ideal conditions, so the main strategy of the game is as follows. We find a bush near a house or a stone, shoot off enemy light, and shoot. We move to a nearby shelter or move away from the original one, make a shot and return. We destroy the enemies until the light bulb lights up again above the head (well, or until they run out in the viewing radius). We move to the next shelter.
Having a solid speed, at the end of the battle, you can successfully shoot down the capture. Or, for example, on the Himmelsdorf map - to capture the flag with lightning speed while the rest of the herd is pushing on the mountain.
But the most important thing for a successful tanker driving the M18 Hellcat, according to most WoT players, is still caution.

If there are no tactics in World of Tanks, tankers will not understand what to do during the battle. But World of Tanks is a simulator of tank battles during the Second World War. Naturally, during the war, tankers used combat tactics in order to achieve victory.
In World of Tanks, a similar situation has developed. Tactics on the maps of World of Tanks can differ significantly, because the maps have terrain features. Where it is good to go in that direction on one map for LT, on the other - a death sentence.
Game tactics in World of Tanks are not universal - they are built around a certain class of vehicles and maps. For example, the action plan for a well-armored TT is to push through the direction, to contain enemy attacks. LTs will definitely not cope with such a task - they have no armor, and therefore they can only shine on allies and sometimes shoot from a safe position.
Combat tactics in World of Tanks cannot be universal - the situations in battle are different. Sometimes, it is not always possible to predict the actions of allies and enemies, and therefore the player needs to modify his behavior and evolve.
Team fights – world of tanks tactics
Team battles in World of Tanks have taken a step further in terms of tactics and deserve a separate discussion. In CB, players with voice communication fight and most often play well with each other. Therefore, teamwork in KB is at its best, which cannot be said about “random confrontations”. In this mode, the players are led by a commander - an experienced player who knows every map and is able to predict the moves of the enemy.
Combat tactics in World of Tanks are often thought out by commanders in advance, after which each move is played out for hours, or even days in training rooms, so that one can understand the effectiveness of the actions taken.
Cards deserve a special mention, because their knowledge provides an experienced player with an advantage over a beginner. Having learned all the cards, it is not difficult to understand in which positions a certain tank is better to operate.
The battle tactics on the maps of World of Tanks are built around the performance characteristics of the tank itself and the features of the terrain, the presence of buildings, bushes.
The simplest are tactics for a certain class - for heavy, light and medium tanks, as well as tank destroyers and self-propelled guns.
On urban maps, the style of play for heavy tanks is simple: "tank" from buildings and exchange shots. If medium tanks get into a city, they should "pounce" on singles with several vehicles, and not try to trade with heavy tanks. It is better for light tanks not to engage in a direct collision.
On open maps, LTs, SPGs, and tank destroyers are already ruling, while STs are doing well, but TTs are not well. LT freely "run" on spacious maps and shine for allies, PT - shoot from afar.
Relief plays an important role. For example, a tank with good HPP can take a position behind a hill or a small hill, playing from an armored turret. However, such positions are prohibited for tanks with bad HP - all Chinese tanks and most Soviet ones.
Guides
Oddly enough, reviews or so-called guides can help you understand what tactics are best to use on a particular tank. Reviews are a "guide" for World of Tanks video tactics.
Famous tank players in such videos share their experience and tell why they do it in this or that combat situation. As a rule, after watching the guides, players feel more confident and their statistics grow up.
The tactics of playing World of Tanks tanks are developed by each player over time. Just starting to play tanks, most of them will seem incomprehensible until the mechanics cease to be a mystery. Having played at least 5000 battles, any player remembers all the cards and tanks with their pluses and minuses - from which the tactics of actions on the battlefield are already built.
conclusions
Now you can understand how the strategy and tactics of World of Tanks affect the outcome of any battle. With no fundamentals in mind, players do weird things – eat where they shouldn’t go, go solo on a few enemies, don’t cover for those who need help, and only spoil the statistics for experienced players who are trying to win.
The right tactics in World of Tanks is the key not only to victories and good results, but also to the respect of other players. Make the most of your combat vehicle, play in convenient positions and attack at the right time, coordinate with your allies, then victory will not be long in coming.
Of course, sometimes the right actions cannot guarantee victory - situations are different and defeats cannot be avoided.
Armor
All vehicles in the game have armor that protects against enemy fire. The degree of armor for different machines is different, but for most of them there is a general principle: the frontal parts are better protected, and the side and feed are more vulnerable. Armor is measured in millimeters and is indicated in the following format: front/side/stern armor thickness. And if the value of armor, for example, is indicated as 75/45/45, then a gun with a penetration capacity of 60 mm with a direct hit will be able to penetrate the side or stern, but not frontal armor.
An example of booking an IS-3. Color variations show places with different armor thickness in millimeters.
In addition to the side and rear, almost all equipment has the same weak points: the lower armor plate, hatches and the roof of the tower.
armor penetration
Armor penetration mainly depends on the angle at which the projectile hits the armor. The best penetration is achieved when hit at a right angle - in this case, the projectile overcomes the minimum thickness of the armor. The trajectory of the projectile meeting the armor at a right angle is called the normal.
Deviation from the normal is projectile angle of entry. It defines the thickness reduced armor- the distance that the projectile must travel to cause damage. The greater the angle of entry, the greater the amount of reduced armor.
The projectile may either not penetrate the armor, or even bounce off it at all - this is a ricochet. Armor-piercing and sub-caliber projectiles ricochet if the angle of entry of the projectile is greater than 70°, while HEAT shells ricochet at an angle greater than 85° (see Ammunition load). Only high-explosive fragmentation shells do not ricochet: if they do not penetrate armor, they explode right on it, regardless of the angle of entry.
penetration
ricochet
There is one more important rule for the ricochet mechanics of armor-piercing and sabot shells: if the caliber of the shell is more than three times the thickness of the armor at the point of impact, then the ricochet is impossible at any angle between the shell and the armor. HEAT projectiles ricochet at an angle of more than 85°, regardless of caliber.
Keep in mind the armor penetration and ricochet mechanics when you fire at the enemy: try not to shoot at a tangent, and do not stand at right angles to the fire yourself in order to reduce the chance of getting penetrated.
Effective Shooting
There are a number of tricks that will help you in battle and increase your chances of dealing damage.
Shooting with lead
The most important skill that will come in handy when shooting at moving targets. Aim and converge at the front of the enemy vehicle or some distance in front of it and shoot. The further away the enemy is and the faster he moves, the more lead will be required.
auto-aim
A useful feature if you yourself are on the move. Using auto-aim allows you to fully concentrate on maneuvering while continuing to fire at the selected target. Aim at the enemy and right-click, and your weapon will automatically aim at the selected enemy.
Auto-aim is performed approximately at the center of the vehicle and does not take into account its armor, the location of the modules, and the necessary lead to hit.
Shooting at modules
Can't penetrate a well-armored enemy? No problem. Open targeted fire at its modules - in particular, at the tracks. This tactic is especially good against higher level and more durable vehicles. Your ability to "keep" the enemy on a downed track will not allow him to hide from fire, and your allies will be able to focus and quickly destroy him. You will definitely appreciate this support.
Relief
Advantageous positions
Use the terrain on the maps to your advantage! Hide behind rocks, rocks and buildings to calmly wait for reloading or completely hide from the enemy. To protect yourself from artillery fire, take cover behind mountains and other large objects.
But the terrain is not only cover, it is also the ability to effectively fire without taking damage. Take a look: this tank is behind a hill so that all its vulnerable parts are hidden, and only a powerful armored tower looks at the enemy.
Terrain Hazards
On any map, maneuver with caution. Do not attempt to speed off cliffs or cliffs. In the best case, you will lose durability points and break several modules, and in the worst case, you will completely destroy the car.
On many maps there are reservoirs - these are small lakes, and bays, and a deep city river. Be careful when crossing a body of water or a river bridge. Remember: if your equipment - in particular, the engine compartment - went under water, you have 10 seconds to get out, otherwise the car will sink.
During extreme maneuvers, the vehicle can fall on its side or roll over - this happens especially often with light and fast cars. If the equipment lay on board, it is not only immobilized, but also practically defenseless: visibility, accuracy and rate of fire are sharply reduced. If the vehicle rolls over, it cannot fire at all and self-destructs after 30 seconds. Allies can help return the car to both tracks by gently pushing it in the right direction, but this is not always possible.
Detection and masking
Machine overview
It's hard to fight an enemy you can't see. The sooner you find opponents on the battlefield, the more chances you have to seize the initiative in battle. Detection is one of the key elements of World of Tanks game mechanics.
Vision is the maximum possible distance within which your vehicle can detect enemy vehicles. This parameter is determined by the characteristics of the tower, as well as the skills and abilities of the crew.
The minimap shows several radii around your vehicle icon. This is an overview of your car, the maximum overview in the game and the circle for rendering vehicles.
- Circle of view. The value of an overview of your equipment, taking into account the skills and abilities of the crew, as well as the installed equipment.
- Circle of maximum visibility. For all vehicles in the game, the maximum view range is 445 meters. Even if your vehicle's visibility exceeds this value, you will not be able to detect the enemy at a greater distance on your own. However, in this case, it will be easier for you to find stealthy enemy vehicles within this distance.
- Drawing circle. Shows the maximum distance at which the vehicles of the players will be displayed on your screen - this is 565 meters.
A huge role in detecting vehicles on the battlefield is played by the communication range of your vehicle - this is the distance at which you and your allies can exchange data on the position of other players. The communication range depends on the characteristics of the radio station, as well as on the skills and abilities of the crew.
If your ally has detected an enemy vehicle and fed you intel, the icon for that vehicle will appear on your minimap, even if the vehicle itself is outside of your drawing circle and not visible on the battlefield. Therefore, do not neglect the installation of a powerful radio station on your car!
Disguise
The later the enemy detects you, the more chances you have to survive and prove yourself in battle. Disguise yourself to be invisible!
The easiest way to disguise yourself is to hide in vegetation, such as bushes or fallen trees. Make sure that the body of the machine and the tower do not look out of the bush. But if the gun barrel sticks out of the foliage, this will not affect the camouflage.
When you stop at a distance of 15 meters or less from the vegetation, it becomes transparent to you: you can see the enemy, but he cannot see you. So the bush is not only a disguise, but also an opportunity to fire from an ambush.
The shot and the movement of the hull completely unmask the vehicle, while the rotation of the turret and the movement of the barrel do not affect the camouflage.
How to improve vision and camouflage
Equipment "Stereotube"
Gives +25% to vision radius from a stationary vehicle.
Coated optics equipment
Gives +10% to the vision radius of the car, both in motion and in a stationary state.
Eagle Eye Commander Perk
Increases viewing range, especially effective when disabling surveillance devices.
Radio Operator Skill "Radio Intercept"
Increases viewing range.
Equipment "Camouflage Net"
Removable equipment that fits all vehicles and gives a bonus to the camouflage of a stationary vehicle.
Crew skill "Disguise"
Begins to act from the beginning of the study. If the skill is fully learned by all crew members, the visibility of the vehicle is significantly reduced.
To try yourself in the role of a tanker and a warrior capable of defeating an entire company of military vehicles, today everyone can use the well-known game World of Tanks. It is in it that hostilities of unprecedented scale take place, where really everyone who is ready to take control of the entire crew can take part. So, for example, registering, downloading and installing a client is a task that absolutely everyone can do. For those who love to just spend their free time, enjoying a quiet and calm battle, it is enough just to drive and kill enemies. They are not looking for cunning and secret ways in the game, and yet someone right now is ready to kill an ally of your team, just using a much more skillful method of fighting.
Are there secrets in World of Tanks that not everyone knows about? Is it possible to use tricks for quick money? How and what secrets work in the famous game World of Tanks?
To win, you need to have a strategy
The game itself is distinguished by a special kind of victory: you can either capture the enemy base, or crush every enemy who wants to be on the way. If the second option is more suitable for active participants, then the first type of winning can rightfully be considered tactical.
The main secret of success with a quick base capture lies in the ability to use small tanks for their intended purpose. They move easily, move away from shooting and hide. If you study the secrets of the game in World of Tanks, then using a light tank to capture the base is what you need to pay special attention to. In this case, you need a faithful ally who can take a hit on his powerful armor and resist up to 100 seconds. In this case, the trick lies in the correct positioning: on one side there should be some kind of natural protection (stone), and on the other - a heavy tank with excellent armor.
What are the secrets of quick victories in the world of World of Tanks?
The main trick of the game lies in the technique itself. Only the player will be able to break through the tank, who has at least a little studied his armor, watched the video, which tells in detail about the weak and strong parts of the combat vehicle. For example, many "tankers" decide that the position on the mountain is the most advantageous. Of course, on the one hand, all the players who have taken this position are right - finding the enemy from the highest point is easy and fast, but the problem lies elsewhere. If a gamer sees a tank that is watching for everyone else from a big mountain, then one trick works - you need to shoot at weak spots, that is, at the lower armor plates, and then, after breaking through, you can immobilize the equipment and quickly destroy it, receiving the coveted points for accuracy.
Secrets of big income. How to quickly save up for an expensive purchase
When secrets become known to everyone in World of Tanks, they stop acting "on the player" and play against everyone. So, for example, a little-known trick to get a lot of income lies in the tanks of the 5th level. The fact is that it is on combat vehicles of this level that there is a maximum income limit. That is, parts and innovations are not so expensive, and the costs can easily be justified in a couple of fights. If many people think that this is not so, then you can check it by taking, for example, a tank of the eighth or ninth level. The cost of updating and pumping it is more than income, and the player, having such a machine in his possession, simply goes into the red, if, moreover, he does not shine with accuracy.
You can save on many things, it would be nice to know which
The secrets of the game in World of Tanks differ in that they are legal and laid down by the developers themselves. So, for example, saving on the crew is considered to be another popular trick. As you know, hiring a new crew for a tank you just bought is not cheap, but it is on this that a gamer can easily save most of the money if he simply retrains the old crew. In addition, a pleasant bonus will be that such a team will retain some of the experience from the previous work.
Savings and earnings: how to spend money productively
Looking for the secrets and tricks of saving in the World of Tanks game, you can stumble upon a completely banal thing. So, for example, special bonus codes that appear on holidays can be considered another chance to minimize costs. To get a "bun" from the developers, you only need to enter the code word that comes to the mailbox after some actions in your personal account. The player enters this code in a special box and receives his prize. No matter how popular this action is considered, for many it becomes unknown, and therefore secret.
Unravel all secrets in World of Tanks - reality or myth?
When players, eager to get more than they deserve, start looking for “left” ways to gain experience and silver, they sometimes fall for scammers who only need money from such gullible people. If a gamer is looking for cheats for World of Tanks, then most likely he will be very upset when he does not find anything about this. It's all about the special "physics" of the game. A pumped tank can defeat the same combat vehicle, having only stronger armor. The result will depend on the angle at which the projectile enters the enemy tank: ricochet, penetration, or the tank will be destroyed.
In World of Tanks, secrets and tricks are hidden in ordinary things. So, for example, by increasing the performance of his client, the player can fully control the situation of the battle, and even only due to the fact that the picture does not freeze, and the ping does not jump. To increase the quality of the game in accordance with the version of the client, you should regularly update mods for World of Tanks. The resolution of the transmitted image, the speed of response to actions and various “bells and whistles” that can affect the speed of enemy detection even under a camouflage net will depend on their presence and quality.
Tricks and secrets: using them to the fullest, you can quickly win
As already mentioned, the World of Tanks game is designed in such a way that cheat codes cannot be used to increase experience, silver or gold. Only an impressive number of victories can bring success to the player. Mods for World of Tanks are a great way to keep things under control, get the latest updates from the developers, and be a bit better than all the other tanks in the game. But in order to win, it is not enough just to use bonus codes, activate them or use the most powerful armor for your combat vehicle. To snatch victory, you need a strategy, thoughtful tactics, which will become the secret weapon for the whole team. This is what the general chat is for, where allies can write about their ideas and offensive proposals, about how to quickly capture the enemy base. Many players are forced to turn off the chat as unnecessary, simply believing that it is easier to work alone. This is a deep misconception, since the only trick in the game is rightly called the planned strategy of conducting a battle or capturing a base.
Share and win from 100 goldGood day, dear readers. As in any game, World of Tanks has small
1. Correctly use the armor of the tank.
In almost any tank, the strongest point is the front of the turret. So you try to play from it, hiding your vulnerable lower armor plate and showing the enemy only the tower. He is unlikely to penetrate you there, but if you have a tank with a large commander's tower, then try to turn the tower, drive back and forth in order to make it difficult for the enemy to aim it.
Like this, we tank with a tower:
2. Clinch
When playing on a tank with a strong turret, especially against various PTs and TTs with commander's turrets, we enter into a clinch to expose, again, our strongest armor. We also try to direct the gun of your tank into the enemy gun, so we have a chance that when the enemy fires, our gun will take damage, maybe crit, but we will not receive damage. We also rotate the turret to make it harder for the enemy to aim the hatches. Ideal for the clinch are many heavy tanks with a strong, as well as CT (for example, T-62).
This is what the clinch looks like, on the IS-7 with the strongest turret, we huddled up to the E100 and did not let it shoot at us at the NLD or VLD, only our turret was visible to it.
3. Side tanking
Many heavy tanks have powerful side armor, but many don't even know how to drive around corners properly and die quickly. Let's analyze the situation, the enemy E100 leaves like many inexperienced players, thereby substituting his ice rink, shooting at the rink, and if the enemy does not have a repair kit, then he is unlikely to get off (many simply do not even download repairs). So we use this.
Here is an example of a wrong exit:
This is how you need to properly drive a tank with strong sides, make a minimum angle and drive away from the side, thereby hiding our vulnerable NLD, which in most cases of shooting at us will go into ricochets and not penetrate.
4. Targeting vulnerable areas
No matter how strong a tank is in World of Tanks, it has its own vulnerable zones. For example, even the strongest level 10 tanks can be pierced into the NLD or the commander's turret.
Here, for example, from the E100 gun, which has weak armor penetration with an armor-piercing projectile, we calmly pierce the T110 into the commander’s cupola, since it is only the main frontal armor (although the T110 is sideboard, but this is not the point).
5. Gold shells
Since many vehicles in the game have very strong armor, we are not always able to break through someone, especially if we are lower level. However, we can always load a cumulative or sub-caliber projectile (most often they act as gold shells) and penetrate this tank, but you should not do this always, only in cases when you are dragging a battle or you really cannot penetrate a tank in any point. If you shoot gold too often, you can fly into big minuses on loans, so don't be zealous. We'll definitely take a couple.
As an example, E100 tanks with a turret, if you don't have time to aim, as is often the case in tense situations, load a gold projectile and freely sew E100 into the cheek of the turret. We would not have succeeded with an armor-piercing projectile, we would have had to aim the bar under the turret or the rangefinder on the roof and hope to pray to the VBR for a hit.
6. Penetration skins
A very useful thing that shows the weak zones of tanks, where it is easiest to penetrate, as well as the location of all modules (ammunition rack, engine, etc.) and crew members. This will make it easier for beginners to shoot at weak spots, so try to always crit the ammo rack, tanks and engine first, which can be very bad for the enemy tank. You can download penetration skins from our website, for example, in.
7. Study the performance characteristics of the tanks you are fighting
Especially their armor and guns, which will be a huge plus for you in the future. You will know reloading, armor, its strengths and weaknesses, and you will understand whether it is worth engaging in a duel with this tank. After spending a couple of days on this, you will get much more. As they say, know the enemy by sight.
8. Carousel and swing.
There are such uncomplicated names in World of tanks. A carousel is a “twisting” of an enemy tank due to its speed. An extremely useful item for CTs and LTs, which will allow you to safely rotate tank destroyers and many TTs, with a slow turret traverse. But any competent TT player will not just turn the tower behind you, so we knock down his caterpillar, which will reduce the chances of catching us even more, and so we twist, keeping him on the rink with shots. The main thing is not to let them press against the wall, otherwise they can easily push us away and smack us. However, we will not be able to spin all PTs and TTs, knowledge of their rotation of the suspension and turret will come in handy. Let's use it wisely.
Here on the screen, we shot down the caterpillar of the enemy E100 and just turn this slow barn.
Swing. It is also a very useful element that will come in handy on Soviet and Chinese STs, as well as on some others. A low silhouette and a strong tower play an important role here. In tanks there are many high tanks with a high silhouette, for example, E100, Mouse, Gus, etc., getting used to the side of which we will make them practically helpless. You can do the same with other tanks, having a strong tower. Be sure to “squeeze” to the enemy’s tank, we drive back and forth, thereby worsening the enemy’s chance of aiming our hatches on the turret.
This is how we got used to the E100 at object 140 and just kill it on the CD, rolling back and forth.
9. Artillery
Here's what to always remember when playing on any class of vehicle. You will stand for a long time and exchange fire outside the shelter, the brown ones can throw themselves at you and take you away. So, don't be too heroic and play carefully.
10. Correct shooting from behind a bush
Almost on any map there are various bushes and trees that camouflage the tank well. Trees, for example, can be felled and they will work like a bush. So, many stand in a bush, shoot from there and wonder why they lit up. That's right, drive back 15 meters from the bush and shoot (15 meters is when the bushes become opaque). At the same time, our visibility is limited, you can only shoot at the red contours, but most likely we will not glow. However, do not expect that you will not light up when shooting at close range. Also, do not try to stand in the bushes on huge tanks (such as Mouse, Waffentrager E100, etc.), even in them you can be easily detected.
This is how the bushes should be displayed for safe shooting.
11. Olenemer
This mod loads the full statistics of the players and displays it in battle, according to different ratings (RE, WN8, WN6, LR, etc., depending on the choice of the player. It will be extremely useful for players who have already skated a couple of thousand fights in order to learn analyze team compositions.It is also useful for assessing the enemy with whom you are shooting, what to expect from him, etc. This modification is also available in .
12. Ramming
Another integral part of the game. When playing on heavy tanks, on ST, you can always accelerate well and ram a lighter enemy tank. But you need to do this wisely, try to fly into the stern or sides of the enemy with your ram in order to inflict as much damage as possible. Also, do not try to ram enemies larger than you in mass, if it is vital.
Using the E100 as an example, with a mass of 130 tons, even after accelerating from a couple of meters, we shoot 110, which always weighs 2 times less HP. If you accelerate from the mountain, you can fly into 1000+. But it is better without fanaticism, only if necessary and confident.
13. Cards
Many players simply do not know the maps and go with the whole “herd” in one direction. If you re-read the forums, consider each tactic individually, you will increase your effectiveness in battle. So knowledge of maps is no less important than knowledge of penetration points. Be sure to study the location of the art to know where they can throw at you.
14. Blindshots
They are blind shots. Try in those moments when it happens to leave the bushes where enemy tanks usually stand. So, for example, on the Malinovka map, you can leave from the lower spawn along the edges of the stones, where enemy tanks usually hide and just take off their HP without light, which will always be useful in battle. The main thing is not to blindshot a lot, a couple of projectiles at predictable positions will suffice.
An example of a simulated blindshot, but in a random house there in 90% of cases someone is standing and waiting for the light
One of the most important components of a good game, when playing with a calculator, it is unlikely that you will become a bender. Do not chase a good picture, try to keep the FPS at least 30-40, less you will be extremely uncomfortable playing. Lower the settings, use it (in a modpack) and just keep an eye on the clutter of your computer / laptop, update drivers, clean it in time and you will play well. Personally, the author rolls on a laptop with 40 fps, for studying, but nothing, it seems to be played well.
16. Knowing your tank
Always, if you don’t know what your tank is like, what tactics to use on it, what modules and perks to install, always read the forum or watch reviews from watermakers (you can find a guide for almost any tank). Knowing your tank, its strengths and weaknesses, you will increase the effectiveness of the game on it.
17. Platoon
In tanks, you can create a platoon of two or three people and play together in battle, which will increase your chance of winning if you play well. However, try to play with more experienced players or friends first to learn tactics etc. In a platoon, you will play well and you can hope that your co-platoon members will help you at a difficult moment, which you will not find in a solo random.
18. Useful mods
At the moment, a huge number of modifications are being produced for the game, from tank skins to clocks in the hangar. I would like to touch on the topic of useful mods. Try to install the most necessary, because if you put everything in a row, you can just specifically reduce the FPS, put only what can help you, you don’t need all the prettiness. A lot of useful mods are provided in, install wisely or better watch the video to understand what each mod is.
