The most effective for getting high ranks and farming silver, taking into account changes in the LF mode, which starts on March 9th.
Hello tankers! With you Wotpack and in anticipation of the return of the Front Line, we have prepared an updated version of the vehicle. This year, the developers decided to strengthen the positional game by adding more relief ledges and buildings.
Our rankings are based on 4 factors:
- armor penetration basic projectile (nevertheless, this mode is well suited for earning silver);
- mobility (playing for the attacking side on slow vehicles, you can spend most of the time on the road, losing a lot of front-line experience);
- overview (it is desirable to shoot at your own light and transmit intelligence to the allies);
- availability of armor welcome, as many people play here without gold shells, but it takes the last role.
Heavy tanks
Closer to the end of the last season for this class added the ability to use 3 skills in combat, to increase its efficiency and somehow compensate for the lack of mobility.
First of all, take a look at the French Somua S.M.. He has good dynamics, and the VLD is located at a good angle, so he often tanks his classmates. Its main feature is in the drum loading shells for 1500 damage. PDM can be implemented due to high armor penetration and comfortable UVN.
Timeless classic -Defenderand his alter ego Object 252U. There is not enough mobility, there is no UVN, but they will be able to prove themselves well in capturing a point or defending (freezing a capture) due to good armor, which is difficult to penetrate without gold if you know how to tank. However, a gun with a high alpha and good penetration will allow you to inflict damage, but it will not be easy to achieve high ranks.
A more interesting option looks like a tank from New Year's boxes, another Soviet heavy Object 703-II. It has slightly better dynamics than About. 252U, and in the frontal projection acceptable booking. Can enter this mode with a double shot with a potential damage of 780 units. Often, on defense / capture, people run away, get carried away by a shootout, in general, it will not be difficult to catch the moment for a “double”.
In addition, he can play from a cyclic reload or like a drum tank, so he left out of work in all respects IS-3 with M3.
From marathon strands, a good British Caernarvon Action X, which is a kind of hybrid with ST. It has excellent ground handling and good specific power, so it does not experience problems with moving around the map. It has a high DPM, good gun stabilization, penetration and accuracy. A weakly armored hull must be hidden behind the terrain, and played from a strong 254 mm turret and excellent vertical guidance angles.
An alternative version of the British Caernarvon AX was the American T26E5Which now available for free. It has a comfortable gun with good stabilization and excellent armor penetration. It is also played from the terrain due to convenient UVN and a strong tower.
We will definitely see a German E75TS, but its effectiveness is doubtful due to weak hull armor, frequent fires and very large dimensions. There are still a lot of shots left on the maps, so it will be difficult to hide his carcass. However, we will soon see in practice how he will show himself and whether he will be able to realize his advantages:
- one-time damage + penetration + UVN;
- overview;
- good acceleration and top speed.
Medium tanks
One of the most common classes in the game, it has many options, so we will try to mention the most interesting ones.
The best in this category is the Italian mafia 46 project, which proved to be excellent in the last season of the LF. It meets all the requirements listed at the beginning with the exception of armor, so it requires careful play. The reloading mechanism of the drum will allow you to shoot a lot of damage, the gun is comfortable to use, mobility is also pleasing.
French Lorraine 40t with a drum for 4 projectiles and a potential damage of 1200 units. It is distinguished by the highest armor penetration among classmates, therefore, in single-level battles, it does not require charging gold at all. It has excellent dynamics, comparable to LT. Also no armor + large size, so it is played exclusively for damage.
The third place in terms of relevance is occupied by the Czechoslovak Skoda T 27. Simply because the drum technique rules in this mode. Many run away, set themselves up, and this is a good chance to unload a clip for 720 damage and “halve” almost any tank of the same level. Everything is in order with the dynamics, it can play from the relief.
More affordable options are almost similar tanks:
The listed STs are equipped with the same weapon:
- high armor penetration;
- excellent accuracy;
- acceptable timing.
Their dynamics are so-so, but for LF it is quite enough. They have a well-protected tower, so they can catch ricochets in single-level battles. Three tanks from this list are promotional, but FV4202 can be obtained for free referral program. By the way, for its passage it is not at all necessary to look for someone, you can do it quickly alone.
PT-ACS
What can I say, the class of anti-tank self-propelled guns looks very menacing in single-level battles, having superiority in armor penetration of shells and one-time damage. Almost every representative of this class can adequately play in the LF, but still we will highlight the 5 most imbued.
German Skorpion G a favorite of many players for its excellent accuracy, penetration, fast mixing and full rotation tower. He has good mobility too. The payback for a gun that is excellent in all respects was poor camouflage, so after each shot you need to roll back to cover.
Soviet SU-130 PM the main advantage of which is a powerful gun with excellent penetration and high alpha. disguise as opposed to Skorpion G excellent, so at a medium distance you can not be afraid of detection. Good speed and has a partial rotation turret so the maskset and horns won't reset. Fast aiming and good accuracy will allow you to effectively deal damage.
Chinese WZ-120-1GFT is recognized by many players as the most versatile in its class. She has good dynamics, there is a ricochet frontal armor and at the same time good camouflage. In terms of guns, it has sufficient armor penetration and high DPM, but mediocre accuracy and long aiming. Suitable for impatient players who
Swedish Strv S1 best for ambush tactics with the best stealth among classmates. In siege mode, it has excellent accuracy and aiming time, it also has the highest armor penetration and excellent projectile speed. In marching mode, it is a very mobile machine, so it has no problems with moving and taking positions.
Alternatively, to hold positions, it will be relevant exclusively for the defending side TS-5. If you hide the NLD, then you can confidently tank the "eights", and a gun with a high alpha and good penetration guarantees a stable DPM. Due to low mobility and poor maneuverability, it is only good at holding narrow aisles.
Light tanks
Here we have no changes compared to last year. The new imbolts were not released, so there are only two options left.
french imbo wheeler Panhard EBR 75 FL 10. High maneuverability and dynamics, the same forward and reverse speed + the shape of the design make it an elusive reconnaissance aircraft capable of transmitting over 10 intelligence data per battle. At any moment it can break through to the towers. The gun has excellent stabilization to accurately hit on the move. Also equipped with a small drum for 2 projectiles with a fast reload.
And our rating is completed by the Soviet LT-432. Everything is good in it: speed, camouflage, high DPM, gun stabilization. A kind of T-100 LT, but at level 8. Among classmates, it is distinguished by the presence of ricochet armor and more mass (with no loss of mobility), so it can easily ram other LTs.
If you have limited choice in terms of premium tanks, then you can check out our rating of the best pumped vehicles for the Front Line.
