𝗖𝗧 𝟭.𝟮𝟰.𝟭 - 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝗶𝘀 --- Rebalances & Crew Skills || World of Tanks

"Commanders!

We’re adding an entire branch to the Polish Tech Tree comprising six researchable tank destroyers. Additionally, we’re adjusting the performance of four Tier X vehicles, improving five Random Battles maps, and introducing the Postmortem mode feature. But that's just the start—join the Common Test, try out the changes firsthand, and share your thoughts on these additions!"

- Quoted from main website

------------------------------------------------------------------------
TLDW Overview:
- Polish TD's are average (similar to Chinese TD's with a gimmick)
- Some Vehicle Rebalancing (Some vehicle have been left out but it's mostly for Onslaught adjustments)
- Crew Efficiency change is the biggest, most impactful aspect of the patch
- No more 50% to 75% trained crew - shifting performance curve to the right
- No need of gold to change specialization of crew (driver to gunner, etc.)
- All lowly trained & low skilled crews get a buff --- not as noticeable for more skilled crews
- All 100% trained crews with less than 1 fully trained skill could be converted into crew books
- Crew Conversion to Training Books is mostly dependent on barrack bunk slots; more barrack slots = more xp for conversion = more books in the end
- Crew Conversion button can only be used once
- Save your 100% crew that came default with premium tanks (they will be converted into XP books)
- You can also move sub-1 skilled crews from vehicle into barracks to be converted into XP books for another tank's crew
- Most special crews & celebrities will NOT be converted
- Crews from Lanchester Car event WILL BE converted (technically they have a special crew skin but nothing else is special)
- Small rebalancing changes in Onslaught & Clan Wars
- Expirable Personal Reserves & Bond Improved Aiming Equipment added

WG also sneaked in a big nerf with the Crew changes, at least for me. I'm mostly F2P & when I try to retrain a crew from 1 tank to another now, to ensure they'll still be 100% Major Qualification without spending any gold, I make sure my crew has a good margin of unassigned skill/perk XP or just reset their crew skills to their skills/perks already assigned, and use a few crew books to boost them up if needed, so when I retrain them, the unassigned skill/perk xp will be used to absorb the overall XP penalty. Looks like with this change, the unassigned skill/perk XP will no longer absorb the XP penality during retraining. "No Good Deeds with WG... without some hidden scummy moves..." :(

thanks for the crew information, this will be a big change (for better or worse, time will tell).

the type 5 line needs a heat round lose the ap and there is no reason to even use 2 types of he when everyone just used the higher pen.

That part is a telemeter (in portuguese: "telêmetro ou distanciômetro"). Each point is part of a lens with a 45 degrees mirros at the edges. The shooter focus both images and align them together on the equipmente and it says the distance of the object.

Hey Sahm, should we get a whole bunch of free 50% crew now, expecting them to be converted to free Crew Books?

[saifer]

The question is if i buy some crew now, will it be worth to trade them after new patch into books?

[christianroberttabor]

I took a 2 year break from wot to comeback to find 6th sense was free, I was like something feels off about my all my tanks crew skills

Imagine if they reduced the RNG from +_25% to... +_5%. And reduce aim circle by 50% globally.
