I got this tank in a box today, so how to use it?

Any tips or tricks?

 Thanks for see this noob questions.

Good straight line speed, traverse sucks.

Armor is meh. Moderate angles.

Turret is pretty decent.

I have it on both accounts. It is a good earner. It can farm. The gun seems to work better than the stats would suggest. The turret does turn slowly but this tank is fast. The armor profile doesn't look good but you can get bounces because of the angles. You got a pretty good box tank today.

Ok bros, thanks.

 So its like a japanese tank?

[fangs58]

It is definitely a medium but I play it more like the American TD's think the old T67 or the Hellcat. That speed really allows you to shoot and scoot. It can also get you in trouble. It is easy to yolo without realizing how far out in front you are.

every single stat is mediocre, and the tank is very good.

i never managed to explain it satisfactorily.

 

i dunno if they nerfed it along with the rest, if not then it’s got to be even better now.

 

 

edit : ah yeah, the gun depression.

Just don’t brawl with other mediums up close. The turret traverse moves like molasses in winter time, so other mediums and light tanks will be tough to hit. From afar it’s ruthless.

Ok, in summatory this is a medium range-support "medium" tank, with trollish armor and bad turret traverse speed, sounds like the american TD  M8A1

It feels real sluggish with low traverse and acceleration but it's got top end.  Haul butt to a position with decent cover and farm damage.  It earns plenty of credits, it was my go to earner back in the day.  I don't know how it compares to the m8, but it's a different kind of tank than most others.  Definitely has it's own style.

For some unexplained reason it's a much better tank than looking at its raw stats it would seem to be. 

 

It's the only tank i ever received from the periodic crates..

 

I am only a meh player, and yet i have a 57% winrate in it at 100 battles. (was in the 60's prior to the great nerfing)
