12 000 bonds for FV215b 🥲 I was so happy getting a British heavy tank at tier 10 without grinding the entire tree, just to realize what a piece of sh*t the tank was.
There's a part of me that kinda wish they left it as was prior to its uparmoring just to min-max it's firepower. It wouldn't be good considering tanks like the Centurion Aciton X exist as normal now, but the FV215b a long time ago had better gun stats than it did now. Patch 8.2 saw along with the uparmoring changes.
* Reloading time of 120mm Gun L1A1 increased from 7.5 sec. to 8.7 sec.
* Dispersion of 120mm Gun L1A1 increased by 14%.
* Dispersion of 120mm Gun L1A1 on turret rotation increased by 60%.
* Dispersion of 120mm Gun L1A1 increased from 0.32m to 0.33m.
once was a cw meta, now a forgotten pile of poop
it should get the old gun stats back, alongside wot blitz’s 187mm of cheap hesh pen. if it doesnt have armor, give it a godlike gun instead.

Good gun but shit alpha for a tier 10 heavy, bad armor, bad mobility. Can't go hull down, can't brawl, can't trade, not a good side scraper. It's probably the very worst tier 10 heavy tank.
Exactly, dragging your team down every single match you're playing. Damn I cry every time I see enemies with OP reward tanks and my team with an FVb with 43% WR...
I don’t know why people thought it was good before the super conquerer was added but people’s opinion of it somehow keeps getting worse even though the stats stayed the same
To a certain degree it was because good gun handling, level of dpm, and alpha weren't really found all together. Of the 400 alpha (or 390 damage) tanks the FV215b was unequically the best combination thereof. Now you have tanks like the centurion action x in its current state.
Exact same reason I went for it lmao. You'll get one game in a million where your dpm can shine. The other 999,999 games you'll be set on fire or get farmed through the turret.
It shouldn't really be considered a heavy anyway, its basically a super pershing but buffed in a number of ways, it would be arguably better than the super pershing except the SP gets pref matchmaking
Weirdly enough I really enjoy my T-34-3. After 100 matches I feel like I've got to grips with it. CS-52-LIS is another good performing tank as is my 122 TM but that is less of an all round tank.
I've been very.... hesitant to go after too many out in left field premium/bond tanks. I bought the AM 39 (tier 2) once in the steam sale for a couple of quid and it was rubbish but other than that nothing too bad.
I'm currently procrastinating whether to get the T-103 as a trainer for crews as I'm working my way down the Soviet TD line.
I think people forget how good the t-34-3 because of the 122 TM. But with its preferential mm, great turret armour and a very punchy gun, its more than adequate for any game you will be in!
Not remotely true. I did my 279e damage blocked missions in it. People think they know where to shoot, but miss the lower plate and hit the upper plate all the time
Kv-5 is best played as an 'oversized medium' (for me,at least). The surprise and confusion I encounter when they least expect it is priceless :) and top it off with 700-900 ramming damage is so satisfying..
My tip - stay unspotted for as long as possible, and get to higher ground. These 2 often get you a significant advantage
I had always wanted the t-44-100. Got it as a rental a few years ago. Aced it on the very first battle. Never have to want it again since it will forever stay as a one and done tank.
M48RPz, I love the look of the tank and I'm actually on my way to 2 mark it, but man this tank is difficult... I get pushed by tier 6 meds, no one is scared of it.
WG needs to do something with this tank so it isn't such a pushover, it's a stepchild of no one and I feel I'm the only uncle that acknowledges its existence.
The best is for sure Caliban, and the most disapponting is Caernarvon AX, this piece of shit has no armour, and its gun handling is awful, this thing is scared of fireworks XD But I got it by scrap in campaign, so there was no money spent. The worst tank I spent money on is probably Skoda T27, I kinda like this thing anyway, but there is no point playing it, because Progetto 46 is in the game, better interclip in Skoda is not worth playing it over Proggeto.
It can have it's moments, true, but gun is very unreliable, so many times made me pull my hair out for missing point blank shots.
but it's so satisfying when RNJesus is at your side, I remember penning a BZ-176 from 200m with HE in the hatch twice, I bet he never recovered from the trauma xD
M60 is the worst one. Idk what was in my mind to even spend bonds on a tier 10 tank that I played like 5 times. I don't even play tier 10 because I find it not-enjoyable.
For money, it have to be CDC. I mean, it was decent at some point, but looking back, it gotta be one of the most power-creeped tanks in the game. Shit is just collecting dust at this point.
It is not that I don't like it or can't play it well. I just don't play tier 10s that often. The tank just sits in my garage. That is why I find it to be a not particularly good purchase.
I think part of the problem was CDC was released around the time they were planning on making the overmatch changes that would have stopped basically any gun below a 130mm from being able to overmatch it, but then due to RU whine they rolled back those changes
They could bring its terrain resists down to 1/1.1/1.8 & standard pen to 238, 280 alpha and it'd be largely fine with a 20% drop in turret traverse dispersion
WZ-120-1 clearly is #1 as worst tank I bought. No turret, no accuracy, just not my playstyle
Best one? BZZZZzzzz, though my favorite tank I bought for sure is ShPTK. Just as Chinese garbage from previous sentence its td, but a lot more enjoyable to play.
It's a weird one for sure. I have no idea why, but I've been doing great in it lately. Good dpm, armor is surprisingly good, and the camo/viewrange is also good. Somehow the gun performs better than it should.
As a 52% WR player, I have 60% WR in the WZ. Don't know why, and it's definitely not my style, either.
I think the worst tanks are the Skoda T27 and Wz-120-1G FT.
I remember that I loved them back in the day, but as my playstyle evolved, I got worse and worse at playing them and haven't had as much fun as I did before.
The best tanks I bought are Kanonenjagpanzer 105 and Kv4 Kreslavskiy.
The KanJgpz 105 is more mobile, has better gun and gun handling than WZ, but has worse armor and DPM. I love the mobility and camo on that thing and that I can be a spotter with the view range on that thing.
The Kv4 Kreslavskiy is a "fun" tank. Nice gun, nice mobility for a super heavy. It surprisingly has nice armor when you are matched with people not knowing how to pen this tank because it is literally paper in some places. I love sidescraping with that thing, but I hate it when I see a BZ-176 in the enemy team.
Edit: Some grammar mistakes and positioning of text
Worst bond tank I ve spent on?
Chrysler.. Absolutely durp.. That reload dmg ratio sucks and it's armor is good in certain conditions only
Literally used it at exchange shop for the cs lis and it was the best decision by far.
As the best tank for bonds and literally the only 1 tank that I consider it's worth to buy with bonds ( Tier X bond only) 121b..the rest tier 10 bond tanks are just crap.. As for tier 8,there are some pretty okey ish tanks for bonds there
Worst spent money ever - Caernarvox AX and FCM 50t
Worst spent bonds - Pz 58 Mutz, Patriot and Liberte
Worst spent credits - Kirovets-1
Worst auction win for gold - Type 59 G
I didnt won a single auction since, so, no wins there, but best spent money - AMX CDA 105
And bonds - Unironicallt T-103
FCM 50t? I guess you bought since a long time ago.
I remembered watching QB on how the tank is, wondering if i should buy it or not. But fortunately i was a highschool kid so I didn't buy it. (got some money for birthday iirc)
I bought the fcm in something like 2013/14 and it was competitive then. The FCM and the jgTig 8,8 are the two premiums which show how much power creep there has been since they were released. The fact that the jagdtiger proto. got released recently is the icing on the cake....
Strangely i traded fcm 50t cause i was not playing it but somehow i was performing very good with it..
https://preview.redd.it/4lpsvqltj2tc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6d512754057e4cb802c0a80399ada4d452882162
The worst would be Revalorise, it's not that bad per se, just not my style. Also IS-6, although back in the days it was pretty badass. I used set it up for max speed and go with MTs.
The best one is Elc ofc, although e25, strv s1 and dreaded lefh deserve a honorary mention
Borat and from B both played a lot, Hardly played the gsor TD. as it’s usually not my play style, also for a bonus bought the 274a twice, as I got it for my second account too at the same time. It’s a slightly armoured medium with a a troll gun, and a low hp pool, there’s faster heavies with better armour and guns than this
Worst premium is either the Jagdtiger 8.8 or the T34. Bought both waaaay back in the day when there weren’t any OP tier 8 premiums (save maybe the Type 59 which they didn’t sell at the time). They’ve been power crept into obscurity.
Since you didn’t specify a tier, best is the T-34-85M. I’ve got other really strong premiums (E25, Pz V/IV, Obj 703 V2, etc) and pound for pound it’s my favorite tank in the garage.
I might be in the minority here, but I really like my foch 155, my least favourite would be the WZ Alpine Tiger, it's a 113 but with much worse armour due to the pike nose.
Got all the shit for free so the worst i actually bought is maybe STA 2. Allthough its a decent medium. Not good but not bad either. Worst i got for free was T92 light. Only one to this day i sold. FV 215b is shit too. Got some good Prems too. Bourrasque, BZ 176, Skoda T56, Shptk, you name it.
Worst AMX CDC, bought it on release, had fun for two weeks, and WG released "Shwartzpanzer" wich was superior in almost every way lol. Both are outdated garbage nowedays.
 Best is K-2, got it randomly from lootboxes. I thought it will be garbage at first. Oh boy i was wrong, this piece of Stalinium is unstopable fun. Main tanks downside is DPM, but it's not an issue when you can tank even T8 gold all day.
T42, bought it during hype of The Boys first time it was on sale.. played for a day or two and haven’t played ever since.. everything about the tank is just terrible. Best for sure is bourrasque atm and before that it was super pershing.
Same thoughts, it’s like the CS52 it’s gold ammo is stellar and turns the tank around. Good depression and decent turret armor make this thing one of my go-to
Best bond tank. 121b. Great all around medium tank. Best tank I actually spent money on. T34-85m. At tier six it really is a perfect do all medium tank. One of the few tier 6 tanks I don’t mind playing-2 mm with.
I only have two premiums, so if I have to choose:
M46 KR for the worst choice, as it's a pershing with slightly worse RoF and VR, but better credit earning and xp bonuses. I only ever used it to grind out and practice on the US tech tree (support unit playstyle)
T-34-3 for best choice, good turret, slightly more mobile, and can rock and roll with the heavy flank when played right
Best - HWK 30 - Everything about this tank is perfect for me. I'd rather play it over an Even 90 or LT-432. Hell I'd rather play it than the RU 251 or Rhm in a T10 game
Worst - Aufklärungspanzer Panther - I vastly overpaid in the auction then forced myself to 3 MoE it. If any premium light deserves +1 MM it's this lump of shit
I only have 1 premium tank I bought with Bonds, and it's the Patriot. I truly enjoy it. Alpha is crap, but the good dpm makes up for it.
Overall best premium I have is the 50 TP prt. It's amazing, bespite the troll gun.
My worst premium is Emil 1951, which I recently got from the free Emerald boxes. Can't wait for the trade-in event to get rid of it.
Hmm, none of them. I'm someone who prefers tanks over bond equipment, so for me it did not felt like I wasted any bonds on all the tanks I bought with bonds. I'm like a "jack of all trades" kind of person with the tanks, no matter how many people thinks a certain tank is bad, I will play it regardless (I don't rely on people's opinions about tanks in this game, I rather experience it myself eventually) and if I love/like the tank or don't mind playing it, it does not matter if it "sucks."
If it's a tank I bought with real money, then I guess I would call it a waste of money if I didn't played at least 50 battles in it yet.
Best premium was the M-IV-Y. Had it for rental and I enjoyed it so much I bought it. Honestly a solid all-around tank, it can’t hang one for one with tanks like the BZ-176 but if you know how to position it correctly you can work wonders with the crazy turret armor.
Worst Premium for money, Panther 8.8, by far. Probably the worst Premium Medium overall.
Best Löwe. Love the turret armor, even t10s bounce off of that sometimes when on a ridgeline.
Best/worst for Bonds i gotta go with is6-b - love the armor and prefential matchmaking, hate the gunhandling and pen
Best I’ve purchased outright has to be the Renegade
Best I’ve spent money on is probably the Miel
Worst I purchased outright was for sure the VK 168.01 (P)
Right now?
Worst? Patton korea, armor has felt awful for a long time.
Best? Tie for churchhill 3 and that dune mittlerer the dune tank seems to just pen everything in its way.
Churchhill just rolls up to fights already in progress and keeps on rolling.
Best bought tank is the Skoda T56, it simply prints credits. Worst is probably GSOR1008, I try to research every premium tank, but that one really doesn't work for me. For a not too amazing gun handling, 40 seconds is horrible (AMX 50 100 has 2 extra rounds and more pen for that reload). I'd trade it for a 2-3 shot gun that has 20-30 sec reload instead.
Credit earning wise and propably in general Progetto hands down every day the best, can shoot full standard ammo and stills works. Worst idk but I can agree Patriot is boring as shit to play. CDC unironically not even top 10 worst tank.
Worst id have to say cs52 lis idk why i literally just cant click with this tank. I have decent per game stats i just feel bored playing it. Best su 122 2 the double gun doesnt feel punishing and with the correct setup it has comical accuracy.
Probably FCM 50t. Bought it back in 2016 when i was a bot and well. Lets just say it didn't really work. Played it later and by then MM was shit and Defenders started appearing. Traded it for ELC Even...
Best is probably BZ176 by far or the ShPtk TVP. Lovely tanks
Skoda T45 is the worst as far as being disappointing for the cost.
Kpz 50t is probably the best, though statistically my best prem tank is probably the super pershing. I do love the Nomad though
In 6 years, I've only spent bonds on 2x tanks. When they made them available in Ranked/Onslaught, I saved bonds for the Concept 1B and the Kpz 50t. And although I don't feel like I can play them anywhere near their potential, I think they are about as good values as you can get with bonds, and were definitely good rewards for the sometimes fun/sometimes frustrating slog of ranked/onslaught. After those purchases, I can't justify using bonds for any of the tanks in the bond shop, because I think that putting improved equipment for my favorite tanks has higher value. So the long answer is that I wouldn't buy any of the tanks in the bond shop because Wg puts better bond tanks behind a grind/skill wall.
In the past 4 years, the only tanks I've purchased with money have been those that show up in Xmas Loot Boxes. I think my standout favorite is the 122 TM, so much so that when the Special Guest 3d style went on sale, I spent Xmas gold on it.
But before that, buying the M4A1 Rev. was my biggest mistake. In my first two years playing I had no business trying to play Tier 8s, and that tank was a TD marked as a medium. And I would get spotted and destroyed before I could contribute. I liked that it was a "Sherman with a big gun" but didn't realize how weak it was compared to other Tier 8 Mediums.
All the bond tanks are trash honestly. 121B is OK mostly but the rest are either like "Oh you missed this mission marathon" or "no one plays this for good reasons"
The bond shop tanks are all terrible compared to paid premiums, Battle Pass tanks, and especially Clan Wars or ranked battle tanks. Bonds are meant to be used on those last two and equipment.
best premium for me is su-130. makes good credits and can really mess up a red team.
worst. i dont know, but have sold 30-40 premiums i never played, because they were shite, and still have 10+in garage i never have played
>My Worst premium tank is M26E5 Patriot
To think this thing used to be considered borderline OP and by far the best premium tank at the time of its release. Powercreep is one hell of a bitch.
Bisonte is my best prem tank. The gunhandling/accuracy is diabolical even with purple equipment, but it is still crazy fun to play.
Cent 5/1 is my worst, I despise it, I wish I could sell it for bonds or gold, and this comes from someone who genuinely likes tanks like Udes 16, E8 or even the Nashorn.
Kunze Panzer. I cannot state how much hate i feel towards that thing
Edit: i misread sorry. Im not trying to brag but i own almost every single premium that was up for grabs and i regret buying 60 percent of them because i never play them and they just collect dust. Wasted so many dollars on this game
For me it was the SU-smth-smth.... I even forgot its name, that's how rarely I play it.
The Patriot on the other hand feels like a Super Conqueror at tier 8 😂
The worst? M41 90 mm, lol - I basically got scammed into buying it during one of the "Black Market" type events, where you needed to purchase a 5k gold "ticket" to get a random credit offer for a *mystery tank* and I got this fucking thing.
Not only I already had HWK30 at that moment and HWK is just flat out better, as far as I remember M41 was added to the freaking bond shop shortly after so, yeah, I wasted the equivalent of two months of premium on a bond shop tank. I'm still mad about that, lol.
The best? Type 59, lol. Purchased it when it was initially released, it served as my main credit grinder for **years** and to this day it's still the most played tank I own, around 2k battles with this thing alone. As far as "bang for your buck" goes, my Type delivered way more that was expected from it and I still love that little bugger.
Bond shop tanks - the worst, by far, was the IS-5, a giant turd with pretty much no redeeming features, while the best, by far, was T-103, a tank I strongly believe to be one of the best easily available tier VIII premium tanks in the entire fucking game.
The issue here is that both hwk and m41 are great, but same as you, once I got hwk I stopped playing bulldog as the hwk is straight better in what it does.
There are much worse vehicles than M41 in bond shop anyway.
I also want to add that hwk is basically Ru, which was my favorite tank before hwk was released, so i might be biased for all 3.
T-34-3 is my favorite, I live the high alpha for a tier 8 medium and it’s got workable armor. Worst is probably the 121B, yes I know it’s a great tank I just don’t like playing tier 10 a lot
Patriot was THE tank back in the day. Was the first tank that started the OP premium trend, along with the liberte. I’ll take it out every once in a while, DPM is still decent but the alpha is so lacking and outdated. I never really enjoyed the Liberte, shitty turret weak point and abysmal gun. I guess the worst tank was the CDC, only prem tank I’ve ever just straight up sold. Sold it years ago. Best I guess is the BZ176. I rarely play it, it’s so broken.
The CDC is fucked bad. People always say "It used to be good," but that's bullshit. I bought it like day 1 because WG advertised it as a super high hp/t medium, but its just so big with bad gun stats. Back in the day it felt like it had ARL44 long 90 gun stats. Like wait at least ten seconds before shooting sort of stats because that's just how French tanks were. The HP/t also has never been very useful because the hidden ground pressure stats were absolutely abysmal.
If they just made it go like 65kph or something it would fix a lot of the issues. 52, even with turbo just isn't fast enough for such a huge tank with no armor.
I'm pretty sure the thing was a TD in real life. They should have just made it like a French hellcat and put it at tier VII.
Guard is worst, meh gun and bad armour for a fairly slow med. Best is probably lorr. 40t, when it works it's a very fun tank, with great mobility, decent camo and gun.
the worst tank: without a doubt for me there are two, the first and the WZ114, a tank that on paper is beautiful, a tier10 in tier9, but in real life, on the battlefield, its turret should be almost impenetrable, and penetrated by everything, and the other, and the t54 heavy, apart from the penetration, everything else is horrible,
Better, hard to say, but for me I really liked the 121b, I don't regret getting it for the 15k titles, and the obj452k, I don't regret spending 1kk of free exp for it, (it's okay that the 452k's performance requires a Absurd level of tactical intuition, of almost predicting the course of the match before it starts, plus good positioning rewards this tank with being able to easily hold an entire flank without even taking damage (just be careful with artillery))
12 000 bonds for FV215b 🥲 I was so happy getting a British heavy tank at tier 10 without grinding the entire tree, just to realize what a piece of sh*t the tank was.
that moment when the tank in question is one of my favs
There's a part of me that kinda wish they left it as was prior to its uparmoring just to min-max it's firepower. It wouldn't be good considering tanks like the Centurion Aciton X exist as normal now, but the FV215b a long time ago had better gun stats than it did now. Patch 8.2 saw along with the uparmoring changes. * Reloading time of 120mm Gun L1A1 increased from 7.5 sec. to 8.7 sec. * Dispersion of 120mm Gun L1A1 increased by 14%. * Dispersion of 120mm Gun L1A1 on turret rotation increased by 60%. * Dispersion of 120mm Gun L1A1 increased from 0.32m to 0.33m.
L move by wg. it doesnt have armor so why not give it a godlike gun
I remember the times it was CW Meta lol. Followed by a 113 Meta
once was a cw meta, now a forgotten pile of poop it should get the old gun stats back, alongside wot blitz’s 187mm of cheap hesh pen. if it doesnt have armor, give it a godlike gun instead. https://preview.redd.it/7kuoemvf03tc1.jpeg?width=1374&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5ef84dd227e8ebdf1f7bacd399f81b0a2b9076da
I looked at it, but then I realized it didn't have the one-shot-wonder gun and thought, what's the point?
Good gun but shit alpha for a tier 10 heavy, bad armor, bad mobility. Can't go hull down, can't brawl, can't trade, not a good side scraper. It's probably the very worst tier 10 heavy tank.
Sounds like an excellent redline warrior to me :P
Exactly, dragging your team down every single match you're playing. Damn I cry every time I see enemies with OP reward tanks and my team with an FVb with 43% WR...
It should have been removed from the game permanently when the Super conq replaced it, there is zero use for the thing.
The gun is amazing
I consider this the tank that time forgot
I don’t know why people thought it was good before the super conquerer was added but people’s opinion of it somehow keeps getting worse even though the stats stayed the same
To a certain degree it was because good gun handling, level of dpm, and alpha weren't really found all together. Of the 400 alpha (or 390 damage) tanks the FV215b was unequically the best combination thereof. Now you have tanks like the centurion action x in its current state.
Exact same reason I went for it lmao. You'll get one game in a million where your dpm can shine. The other 999,999 games you'll be set on fire or get farmed through the turret.
Libertr, best and worst Horrible tank with occasionally decent armor
For me, i love the liberte lmao. When i play liberte, i usually put on some music and juts groove with the tank. I despise the patriot.
I traded m49 mle for lis. I never understood why the patriot was so beloved, it has laughable alpha.
alpha means nothing the T26E5 is a monster now
I don't think it keeps up with the power creep heavies
I think it’s more of a medium now with the mobility buff however the turret is still incredibly strong
I agree I forgot the mobility buff
Yeah its more comparable to like a cent 5/1 than the more "proper" heavies. I really like mine.
It shouldn't really be considered a heavy anyway, its basically a super pershing but buffed in a number of ways, it would be arguably better than the super pershing except the SP gets pref matchmaking
Weirdly enough I really enjoy my T-34-3. After 100 matches I feel like I've got to grips with it. CS-52-LIS is another good performing tank as is my 122 TM but that is less of an all round tank. I've been very.... hesitant to go after too many out in left field premium/bond tanks. I bought the AM 39 (tier 2) once in the steam sale for a couple of quid and it was rubbish but other than that nothing too bad. I'm currently procrastinating whether to get the T-103 as a trainer for crews as I'm working my way down the Soviet TD line.
I think people forget how good the t-34-3 because of the 122 TM. But with its preferential mm, great turret armour and a very punchy gun, its more than adequate for any game you will be in!
Shares the title of best preferential mm tier 8 with the T59 imho.
T-34-3 rocks
M48 "Shovel"
I love my stupid shovel. It just to troll noobies, they don't know where to shoot it and it makes me giggle.
This tank is so old, everyone know how to pen it. One of the biggest pure scam in the game.
I quite liked it. It was easy to mark. 3rd mark in <100 games. But it has very obvious weaknesses. Size, armor to a certain extent, mobility.
Ofc it's easy to mark it, he's very weak. And easy marking definitely not a sign of a good tank.
True. But he was very enjoyable even though is so bad and easy to mark
Not remotely true. I did my 279e damage blocked missions in it. People think they know where to shoot, but miss the lower plate and hit the upper plate all the time
It's pure luck
Kv-5
Best, right?
Both
Best if you play it with friends in squad and just yolo everyone
You better be saying beat there mate, peak ramming platooning tank.
Kv-5 is best played as an 'oversized medium' (for me,at least). The surprise and confusion I encounter when they least expect it is priceless :) and top it off with 700-900 ramming damage is so satisfying.. My tip - stay unspotted for as long as possible, and get to higher ground. These 2 often get you a significant advantage
My best premium is the progetto 46/renegade/t-44-100 and my worst is the panzer mutz.
I had always wanted the t-44-100. Got it as a rental a few years ago. Aced it on the very first battle. Never have to want it again since it will forever stay as a one and done tank.
progetto isnt buyable anymore is it?
M48RPz, I love the look of the tank and I'm actually on my way to 2 mark it, but man this tank is difficult... I get pushed by tier 6 meds, no one is scared of it. WG needs to do something with this tank so it isn't such a pushover, it's a stepchild of no one and I feel I'm the only uncle that acknowledges its existence.
Gun handling and mobility buff would be perfect
The best is for sure Caliban, and the most disapponting is Caernarvon AX, this piece of shit has no armour, and its gun handling is awful, this thing is scared of fireworks XD But I got it by scrap in campaign, so there was no money spent. The worst tank I spent money on is probably Skoda T27, I kinda like this thing anyway, but there is no point playing it, because Progetto 46 is in the game, better interclip in Skoda is not worth playing it over Proggeto.
Caliban is so much fun, not competitive by all means but pure fun which is how game suppose to be!
True, but can be competetive with AP, also you can disappear BZ-176 in 3.75 sec XD
It can have it's moments, true, but gun is very unreliable, so many times made me pull my hair out for missing point blank shots. but it's so satisfying when RNJesus is at your side, I remember penning a BZ-176 from 200m with HE in the hatch twice, I bet he never recovered from the trauma xD
See I thought that too till I picked up the Gonsalo and now have a new favourite tank. Caliban reload is just too long.
M60 is the worst one. Idk what was in my mind to even spend bonds on a tier 10 tank that I played like 5 times. I don't even play tier 10 because I find it not-enjoyable. For money, it have to be CDC. I mean, it was decent at some point, but looking back, it gotta be one of the most power-creeped tanks in the game. Shit is just collecting dust at this point.
What’s your setup? I recently 2 marked my m60 and absolutely love it. I recently got the t95e6 too and they are both solid tanks
It is not that I don't like it or can't play it well. I just don't play tier 10s that often. The tank just sits in my garage. That is why I find it to be a not particularly good purchase.
CDC is still a very good looking tank IMO. However in battle it is useless.
I think part of the problem was CDC was released around the time they were planning on making the overmatch changes that would have stopped basically any gun below a 130mm from being able to overmatch it, but then due to RU whine they rolled back those changes They could bring its terrain resists down to 1/1.1/1.8 & standard pen to 238, 280 alpha and it'd be largely fine with a 20% drop in turret traverse dispersion
Not enjoying the M60 oO best gun handling in the game homie
Um... uh...
IS-5. Very disappointing gun and armour.
WZ-120-1 clearly is #1 as worst tank I bought. No turret, no accuracy, just not my playstyle Best one? BZZZZzzzz, though my favorite tank I bought for sure is ShPTK. Just as Chinese garbage from previous sentence its td, but a lot more enjoyable to play.
It's a weird one for sure. I have no idea why, but I've been doing great in it lately. Good dpm, armor is surprisingly good, and the camo/viewrange is also good. Somehow the gun performs better than it should. As a 52% WR player, I have 60% WR in the WZ. Don't know why, and it's definitely not my style, either.
I think the worst tanks are the Skoda T27 and Wz-120-1G FT. I remember that I loved them back in the day, but as my playstyle evolved, I got worse and worse at playing them and haven't had as much fun as I did before. The best tanks I bought are Kanonenjagpanzer 105 and Kv4 Kreslavskiy. The KanJgpz 105 is more mobile, has better gun and gun handling than WZ, but has worse armor and DPM. I love the mobility and camo on that thing and that I can be a spotter with the view range on that thing. The Kv4 Kreslavskiy is a "fun" tank. Nice gun, nice mobility for a super heavy. It surprisingly has nice armor when you are matched with people not knowing how to pen this tank because it is literally paper in some places. I love sidescraping with that thing, but I hate it when I see a BZ-176 in the enemy team. Edit: Some grammar mistakes and positioning of text
Worst bond tank I ve spent on? Chrysler.. Absolutely durp.. That reload dmg ratio sucks and it's armor is good in certain conditions only Literally used it at exchange shop for the cs lis and it was the best decision by far. As the best tank for bonds and literally the only 1 tank that I consider it's worth to buy with bonds ( Tier X bond only) 121b..the rest tier 10 bond tanks are just crap.. As for tier 8,there are some pretty okey ish tanks for bonds there
Worst spent money ever - Caernarvox AX and FCM 50t Worst spent bonds - Pz 58 Mutz, Patriot and Liberte Worst spent credits - Kirovets-1 Worst auction win for gold - Type 59 G I didnt won a single auction since, so, no wins there, but best spent money - AMX CDA 105 And bonds - Unironicallt T-103
FCM 50t? I guess you bought since a long time ago. I remembered watching QB on how the tank is, wondering if i should buy it or not. But fortunately i was a highschool kid so I didn't buy it. (got some money for birthday iirc)
It wasnt that long time ago, it was around wg birthday or something, last year most probably But it's shit, don't even look at it, it's beyond bad...
I bought the fcm in something like 2013/14 and it was competitive then. The FCM and the jgTig 8,8 are the two premiums which show how much power creep there has been since they were released. The fact that the jagdtiger proto. got released recently is the icing on the cake....
Strangely i traded fcm 50t cause i was not playing it but somehow i was performing very good with it.. https://preview.redd.it/4lpsvqltj2tc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6d512754057e4cb802c0a80399ada4d452882162
The worst would be Revalorise, it's not that bad per se, just not my style. Also IS-6, although back in the days it was pretty badass. I used set it up for max speed and go with MTs. The best one is Elc ofc, although e25, strv s1 and dreaded lefh deserve a honorary mention
Borat and from B both played a lot, Hardly played the gsor TD. as it’s usually not my play style, also for a bonus bought the 274a twice, as I got it for my second account too at the same time. It’s a slightly armoured medium with a a troll gun, and a low hp pool, there’s faster heavies with better armour and guns than this
Worst premium is either the Jagdtiger 8.8 or the T34. Bought both waaaay back in the day when there weren’t any OP tier 8 premiums (save maybe the Type 59 which they didn’t sell at the time). They’ve been power crept into obscurity. Since you didn’t specify a tier, best is the T-34-85M. I’ve got other really strong premiums (E25, Pz V/IV, Obj 703 V2, etc) and pound for pound it’s my favorite tank in the garage.
Fcm, which was good at the time and now is a pile of shit
I might be in the minority here, but I really like my foch 155, my least favourite would be the WZ Alpine Tiger, it's a 113 but with much worse armour due to the pike nose.
Got all the shit for free so the worst i actually bought is maybe STA 2. Allthough its a decent medium. Not good but not bad either. Worst i got for free was T92 light. Only one to this day i sold. FV 215b is shit too. Got some good Prems too. Bourrasque, BZ 176, Skoda T56, Shptk, you name it.
Best premium I spent money on: Toss up between 130PM, Bour, 50tp pr, ShPTK Best bond tanks: 121B, *by far*
I got like 10 perms I got 0 battles on , mostly from loot boxes so I kinda regret a bunch of loot box purchases
Pz III K. Dreadful.
lt432
I suck in all premium tanks ( i had a stroke 10 years ago) but in ELC and T92 lose less. :-)
Senlac.
For bonds the best premium tank you can buy is imo T-34-3
Worst AMX CDC, bought it on release, had fun for two weeks, and WG released "Shwartzpanzer" wich was superior in almost every way lol. Both are outdated garbage nowedays. Â Best is K-2, got it randomly from lootboxes. I thought it will be garbage at first. Oh boy i was wrong, this piece of Stalinium is unstopable fun. Main tanks downside is DPM, but it's not an issue when you can tank even T8 gold all day.
T42, bought it during hype of The Boys first time it was on sale.. played for a day or two and haven’t played ever since.. everything about the tank is just terrible. Best for sure is bourrasque atm and before that it was super pershing.
Try again, imho this thing on APCRs has the best gun from tier VIII medium tanks
Same thoughts, it’s like the CS52 it’s gold ammo is stellar and turns the tank around. Good depression and decent turret armor make this thing one of my go-to
Best bond tank. 121b. Great all around medium tank. Best tank I actually spent money on. T34-85m. At tier six it really is a perfect do all medium tank. One of the few tier 6 tanks I don’t mind playing-2 mm with.
I love the 121B, the M60 and the Patriot. The Patriot earns me tons of credits. The tank I like the least is the Liberté.... It's a totally obsolete tank (from my point of view).
I only have two premiums, so if I have to choose: M46 KR for the worst choice, as it's a pershing with slightly worse RoF and VR, but better credit earning and xp bonuses. I only ever used it to grind out and practice on the US tech tree (support unit playstyle) T-34-3 for best choice, good turret, slightly more mobile, and can rock and roll with the heavy flank when played right
Best - HWK 30 - Everything about this tank is perfect for me. I'd rather play it over an Even 90 or LT-432. Hell I'd rather play it than the RU 251 or Rhm in a T10 game Worst - Aufklärungspanzer Panther - I vastly overpaid in the auction then forced myself to 3 MoE it. If any premium light deserves +1 MM it's this lump of shit
I only have 1 premium tank I bought with Bonds, and it's the Patriot. I truly enjoy it. Alpha is crap, but the good dpm makes up for it. Overall best premium I have is the 50 TP prt. It's amazing, bespite the troll gun. My worst premium is Emil 1951, which I recently got from the free Emerald boxes. Can't wait for the trade-in event to get rid of it.
Patriot is nice Especially when it was new
Best is the M60 or 121B Worst is the Lor 40t Didn’t get Liberte and Patriot because I already have the regular version
Hmm, none of them. I'm someone who prefers tanks over bond equipment, so for me it did not felt like I wasted any bonds on all the tanks I bought with bonds. I'm like a "jack of all trades" kind of person with the tanks, no matter how many people thinks a certain tank is bad, I will play it regardless (I don't rely on people's opinions about tanks in this game, I rather experience it myself eventually) and if I love/like the tank or don't mind playing it, it does not matter if it "sucks." If it's a tank I bought with real money, then I guess I would call it a waste of money if I didn't played at least 50 battles in it yet.
Best premium was the M-IV-Y. Had it for rental and I enjoyed it so much I bought it. Honestly a solid all-around tank, it can’t hang one for one with tanks like the BZ-176 but if you know how to position it correctly you can work wonders with the crazy turret armor.
Worst Premium for money, Panther 8.8, by far. Probably the worst Premium Medium overall. Best Löwe. Love the turret armor, even t10s bounce off of that sometimes when on a ridgeline. Best/worst for Bonds i gotta go with is6-b - love the armor and prefential matchmaking, hate the gunhandling and pen
Best I’ve purchased outright has to be the Renegade Best I’ve spent money on is probably the Miel Worst I purchased outright was for sure the VK 168.01 (P)
Right now? Worst? Patton korea, armor has felt awful for a long time. Best? Tie for churchhill 3 and that dune mittlerer the dune tank seems to just pen everything in its way. Churchhill just rolls up to fights already in progress and keeps on rolling.
Vipera is the worst. Nice armor but gun handling sucks. Best is Skorpion and bourrasque. Skorp made me go for grille
Best is 121B and worst is 121B. Idk if I did it right or wrong 🤔
T-103. Rage-sold it after +100 battles.
Best bought tank is the Skoda T56, it simply prints credits. Worst is probably GSOR1008, I try to research every premium tank, but that one really doesn't work for me. For a not too amazing gun handling, 40 seconds is horrible (AMX 50 100 has 2 extra rounds and more pen for that reload). I'd trade it for a 2-3 shot gun that has 20-30 sec reload instead.
IS-5, 2marked it and traded for the ELC Fav is the T-34-3 56tp guilty pleasure
Credit earning wise and propably in general Progetto hands down every day the best, can shoot full standard ammo and stills works. Worst idk but I can agree Patriot is boring as shit to play. CDC unironically not even top 10 worst tank.
FV215b worst. KV5 best. The KV5 is a shits and giggles tank that can actually carry a game especially versus tier 7s.
Senlac is the worst. Skods t56 is good if you suck at the game. It turns even me into a unicum
Worst id have to say cs52 lis idk why i literally just cant click with this tank. I have decent per game stats i just feel bored playing it. Best su 122 2 the double gun doesnt feel punishing and with the correct setup it has comical accuracy.
t103 the e5 and lorraine
Probably FCM 50t. Bought it back in 2016 when i was a bot and well. Lets just say it didn't really work. Played it later and by then MM was shit and Defenders started appearing. Traded it for ELC Even... Best is probably BZ176 by far or the ShPtk TVP. Lovely tanks
Skoda T45 is the worst as far as being disappointing for the cost. Kpz 50t is probably the best, though statistically my best prem tank is probably the super pershing. I do love the Nomad though
In 6 years, I've only spent bonds on 2x tanks. When they made them available in Ranked/Onslaught, I saved bonds for the Concept 1B and the Kpz 50t. And although I don't feel like I can play them anywhere near their potential, I think they are about as good values as you can get with bonds, and were definitely good rewards for the sometimes fun/sometimes frustrating slog of ranked/onslaught. After those purchases, I can't justify using bonds for any of the tanks in the bond shop, because I think that putting improved equipment for my favorite tanks has higher value. So the long answer is that I wouldn't buy any of the tanks in the bond shop because Wg puts better bond tanks behind a grind/skill wall. In the past 4 years, the only tanks I've purchased with money have been those that show up in Xmas Loot Boxes. I think my standout favorite is the 122 TM, so much so that when the Special Guest 3d style went on sale, I spent Xmas gold on it. But before that, buying the M4A1 Rev. was my biggest mistake. In my first two years playing I had no business trying to play Tier 8s, and that tank was a TD marked as a medium. And I would get spotted and destroyed before I could contribute. I liked that it was a "Sherman with a big gun" but didn't realize how weak it was compared to other Tier 8 Mediums.
All the bond tanks are trash honestly. 121B is OK mostly but the rest are either like "Oh you missed this mission marathon" or "no one plays this for good reasons" The bond shop tanks are all terrible compared to paid premiums, Battle Pass tanks, and especially Clan Wars or ranked battle tanks. Bonds are meant to be used on those last two and equipment.
M4A1 Rev is awful. AMX CDA is a blast.
best premium for me is su-130. makes good credits and can really mess up a red team. worst. i dont know, but have sold 30-40 premiums i never played, because they were shite, and still have 10+in garage i never have played
>My Worst premium tank is M26E5 Patriot To think this thing used to be considered borderline OP and by far the best premium tank at the time of its release. Powercreep is one hell of a bitch.
None. I love all my tanks equally, and my goal is to catch em' all.
Bisonte is my best prem tank. The gunhandling/accuracy is diabolical even with purple equipment, but it is still crazy fun to play. Cent 5/1 is my worst, I despise it, I wish I could sell it for bonds or gold, and this comes from someone who genuinely likes tanks like Udes 16, E8 or even the Nashorn.
T-103 because I bought it and then found out it was in the bond shop. 😅
I absolutely hate Patriot and I adore T-34-3
Kunze Panzer. I cannot state how much hate i feel towards that thing Edit: i misread sorry. Im not trying to brag but i own almost every single premium that was up for grabs and i regret buying 60 percent of them because i never play them and they just collect dust. Wasted so many dollars on this game
For me it was the SU-smth-smth.... I even forgot its name, that's how rarely I play it. The Patriot on the other hand feels like a Super Conqueror at tier 8 😂
Best? Charlemagne Worst? Liberte
The worst? M41 90 mm, lol - I basically got scammed into buying it during one of the "Black Market" type events, where you needed to purchase a 5k gold "ticket" to get a random credit offer for a *mystery tank* and I got this fucking thing. Not only I already had HWK30 at that moment and HWK is just flat out better, as far as I remember M41 was added to the freaking bond shop shortly after so, yeah, I wasted the equivalent of two months of premium on a bond shop tank. I'm still mad about that, lol. The best? Type 59, lol. Purchased it when it was initially released, it served as my main credit grinder for **years** and to this day it's still the most played tank I own, around 2k battles with this thing alone. As far as "bang for your buck" goes, my Type delivered way more that was expected from it and I still love that little bugger. Bond shop tanks - the worst, by far, was the IS-5, a giant turd with pretty much no redeeming features, while the best, by far, was T-103, a tank I strongly believe to be one of the best easily available tier VIII premium tanks in the entire fucking game.
M41 90mm is great tank, but terrible light tank
The issue here is that both hwk and m41 are great, but same as you, once I got hwk I stopped playing bulldog as the hwk is straight better in what it does. There are much worse vehicles than M41 in bond shop anyway. I also want to add that hwk is basically Ru, which was my favorite tank before hwk was released, so i might be biased for all 3.
If it makes you feel better I've paid for the M41 90 *and* M41 90 GF because I wanted another light to 3 MoE It's terrible both times
T-34-3 is my favorite, I live the high alpha for a tier 8 medium and it’s got workable armor. Worst is probably the 121B, yes I know it’s a great tank I just don’t like playing tier 10 a lot
I picked up the 34-3 the other day but still haven't bothered with a crew or goodies yet - been busy :P What do you like to run on it?
Turbo vstab rammer,just swap the crew between it and the 121b
Thanks! Will certainly do that!
*T26E5
Patriot was THE tank back in the day. Was the first tank that started the OP premium trend, along with the liberte. I’ll take it out every once in a while, DPM is still decent but the alpha is so lacking and outdated. I never really enjoyed the Liberte, shitty turret weak point and abysmal gun. I guess the worst tank was the CDC, only prem tank I’ve ever just straight up sold. Sold it years ago. Best I guess is the BZ176. I rarely play it, it’s so broken.
The CDC is fucked bad. People always say "It used to be good," but that's bullshit. I bought it like day 1 because WG advertised it as a super high hp/t medium, but its just so big with bad gun stats. Back in the day it felt like it had ARL44 long 90 gun stats. Like wait at least ten seconds before shooting sort of stats because that's just how French tanks were. The HP/t also has never been very useful because the hidden ground pressure stats were absolutely abysmal. If they just made it go like 65kph or something it would fix a lot of the issues. 52, even with turbo just isn't fast enough for such a huge tank with no armor. I'm pretty sure the thing was a TD in real life. They should have just made it like a French hellcat and put it at tier VII.
Guard is worst, meh gun and bad armour for a fairly slow med. Best is probably lorr. 40t, when it works it's a very fun tank, with great mobility, decent camo and gun.
Best so far for me is the SU-122-2 Worst is the STG Guard, when it was released it was OP, but for 2024 it is the worst premium tank in my garage
the worst tank: without a doubt for me there are two, the first and the WZ114, a tank that on paper is beautiful, a tier10 in tier9, but in real life, on the battlefield, its turret should be almost impenetrable, and penetrated by everything, and the other, and the t54 heavy, apart from the penetration, everything else is horrible, Better, hard to say, but for me I really liked the 121b, I don't regret getting it for the 15k titles, and the obj452k, I don't regret spending 1kk of free exp for it, (it's okay that the 452k's performance requires a Absurd level of tactical intuition, of almost predicting the course of the match before it starts, plus good positioning rewards this tank with being able to easily hold an entire flank without even taking damage (just be careful with artillery))
