These light tanks are perfect for doing LBZ, combining different gameplay, so each player can choose what is best for him.
Hello tankers, Wotpack is with you and today we present to your attention 3 branches of tanks that are best suited for completing LBZ LT 15. The gameplay of our top can be divided into three categories:
- active light;
- passive light;
- universal.
General information
Many players wondered which tank to choose in order to complete the LBZ on LT-15 Master of aggressive reconnaissance or LT-10 Maximum result, because for these tasks you need really good technology. That is why today we will tell you on which LTs it is best to perform LBZ.
Each technique of the above branches has its own characteristics, in some cases with pronounced disadvantages and advantages, so we have prepared a detailed analysis for you. As usual in the game, at least one of the tanks on the way to the top will have to “suffer” a little, but these branches are united by the fact that not only “dozens” can perform LBZ, but also in the process of pumping quite good specimens that can do many tasks.
Universal
The Soviet branch of light tanks combines excellent mobility for an active game and good stealth if the situation in battle forces you to stick to a waiting tactic.
MT-25
At level 6, we are met by a tank that can be described in three words: speed, maneuverability and mobility. Excellent driving performance allows you to actively cut through the battlefield, but it will be difficult for him to climb steep cliffs, but a large mass can be used to ram classmates or self-propelled guns.
As a weapon, there is a good pre-top alternative with a 57 mm ZiS-4M “hole puncher”, which has slightly worse armor penetration and less alpha, but has a higher rate of fire, better accuracy and higher penetration on gold.
LTG
Moving on to level 7, you will get acquainted with an unusual-looking tank, which the players called not the kindest words. From the common with the MT-25, he still has the best HVL, which are found in this branch -5 ... + 25 °. Armor penetration has increased and due to the increase in alpha strike, DPM has increased, although the reload time has become a little longer.
Otherwise, this is an unremarkable machine, the effectiveness for LBZ is doubtful, so without delay, you can safely move on.
LTB
Starting from level 8, we already have a tank that is really suitable for LBZ. Among classmates of his level, he can be called the most armored. The nominal armor is small, but the VLD reduction will allow you to tank even the shells of some level 8 TTs and STs, the tower is also well protected. At the same time, stealth is also pretty good.
The LTB has excellent specific power, which provides it with a high maximum speed, and good maneuverability allows it to carousel clumsy bands and PTshek. Therefore, at high speed, the chance of a ricochet is even higher. As for the gun, the one-time damage is unchanged, but reloading has accelerated and accuracy has improved.
T-54 region
One of the best tanks for performing LBZ in the process of researching the top or waiting for discounts on the top ten. It is armed with a similar cannon as on the T-44, which at the top of the list allows it to act on a par with medium tanks. The hull armor is not bad, but the turret can sometimes surprise by catching a ricochet not only from levels 7 and 8 (ricocheting from the “nine” is already completely free if the enemy hits the gun mask, but sometimes this happens).
Good dynamics allows you to use it for active reconnaissance, you can quite realistically shine 4 damage on it by performing the LT-500 Combat Patrol. Stabilization of the gun guarantees damage in dynamic battles, which is so important for LBZ, where it is necessary to damage enemy vehicles or inflict a certain amount of damage (for example, performing LBZ 14, it was a shame when the first time a little more than 15 total units was not enough to close T -100A).
T-100 LT
The crown of the branch deserves special attention, so first we will briefly consider its shortcomings:
- Base projectile sub-caliber with very low armor penetration, which will become even less with distance. Of the positive here, only the flight speed is 1200 m / s. The gold armor-piercing one also does not shine with a breakdown, and the speed is completely low 790 m / s, so it is difficult to shoot ahead of time.
- Bad accuracy. It’s not worth even thinking about firing at a long distance, at best it will turn out to hit on the middle one, but it’s not a fact that it will be possible to target the enemy’s vulnerable zone.
- Overview is small - 390 meters, the minimum value (excluding wheelers). But we can fix this shortcoming. With perks, common equipment, and improved equipment, vision can be accelerated to 483 meters.
Despite the weak firepower, the T-100 LT is one of the most iconic LT-10s, among all its classmates on YouTube, it has the most replays with cool battles. All because The strengths of this tank outweigh its weaknesses:
- Quick mixing, good gun stabilization, excellent turret traverse speed make him a dangerous close range fighter.
- Low silhouette combined with ricochet armor (in this regard, he has no equal among other LTs) increases survivability in battle.
- The main advantage of this tank is excellent mobility. Among the classic tanks, he has no equal in this regard. Low weight of 14 tons with a 720 hp engine. provide a specific power of 48 hp / t, which is the determining factor. At the same time, it has excellent resistance on soft and medium soils, so there is practically no loss of speed, and in fact it has a maximum speed of 72 km/h and it gains it very quickly. With maneuverability, he is also in perfect order.
- Stealth coefficient he has one of the best, so he will do well even with passive scouting.
Summary results
Soviet LTs stand out for their versatility, you can perform any LBZ on them, so many players prefer them. Weak firepower is compensated by excellent mobility, the best armor among LTs and good stealth. There is a premium tank for this branch LT-432, which is the best among other premiums and is suitable even for performing LBZ LT 15.
passive light
Recent appearance in the game British light tanks could not shake the hegemony of the passive intelligence of the classic French ltshek. They are still the best option for "bush" scouts, so you have to put up with the lack of armor. This branch is quite the same type, the gameplay does not change from level 6 and the difference is mostly noticeable only in the changes in performance characteristics. The external difference is only BC 12t.
AMX 12 t
Level 6 smoothly brings us to the specific gameplay of this branch. By itself, this tank is one of the most interesting on the level. Cardboard armor is compensated by a better stealth coefficient, so you can already safely perform LBZ LT-12 Invisible on it.
In addition AMX 12 t can hurt painfully, because he is armed with a gun with a drum for 4 shells, while having the highest armor penetration and one-time damage compared to the rest of the LT-6.
AMX 13 75
Here we are waiting for the main "cactus" of its branch, which is nothing more than a passing tank with mediocre performance characteristics. He inherited the gun from the previous model, with the only difference being that he increased additional parameters and accelerated reloading, but the damage and breakdown remained unchanged.
The tank is accompanied by poor stabilization, frequent engine crits, and there is no getting away from the worst HVL in this branch -6…+9°. Otherwise, with the role of passive intelligence AMX 13 75 copes well, for example, it is easy to perform LT-9 Sharp Eye on it.
Bat.-Châtillon 12 t
BC 12t a specific machine that has proven itself on the front line, but in a random house is experiencing difficulties due to weak firepower and poor survivability. The small alpha strike is slightly offset by a fast reload drum with 680 damage potential.
Dynamics allows you to take good positions at the beginning of the battle for passive light, but for active rides BC 12t maneuverability is rather weak, which is partly offset by good power density. Good camouflage will help to transmit intelligence without detection. The drum in some cases can be used to blast the enemy for LBZ LT-4 Stop on demand. Often 2-3 aimed shots will be enough.
AMX 13 90
The Devyanostik received a more pleasant-to-handle cannon with a 240 alpha strike, both types of shells are now fast sub-calibers of 1163 m/s. The power-to-weight ratio has become a little less, but still good dynamics and high top speed are retained, and the low silhouette will provide excellent camouflage. But the view has not changed, so at level 9, the tank needs at least an experienced crew in order to increase this parameter due to perks.
Tank has a tendency to frequent fires and damage to modules, especially the ammunition rack, which in the presence of a drum will sometimes be very critical.
AMX 13 105
The top branch is slightly inferior to classmates in terms of visibility (easily corrected by an experienced crew and equipment + improved equipment) and dynamics (here the crew will not help much). But the main feature of this tank is it the only LT at its level with a drum and at the same time with maximum one-time damage, therefore, in a short period of time, it can deal 1170 damage.
As before, there is a lack of armor, and at level 10 there are already a lot of experienced players and some of them are not too lazy to charge land mines, so do not stagnate in one place for a long time.
The AMX 13 105 can do most of the LBZ where you need to deal damage and provide intelligence.
Summary results
The French branch of classic light tanks will do the best with passive reconnaissance due to better stealth, and the presence of a drum will allow you to snarl painfully. This combination of characteristics will make it easy to carry out LBZ to transmit intelligence while remaining unnoticed, shoot down tracks or when you need to inflict damage on the enemy a certain number of times.
If there is no desire or time to pump out the entire branch, then at level 7 there is an excellent premium tank AMX 13 57 with good stealth and an 8-shot drum with a fast overall reload and between shots.
active light
In 2019, a new branch of French armored vehicles was released, which literally split the players into two camps: opponents and supporters of such an innovation. A few months later, it became clear that the branch of wheeled vehicles is far from being defenseless vehicles, but one of the main attractions due to the peculiarity of their performance characteristics of cheat wheels, which sometimes manage to absorb damage even from “tens”. Their strength lies in mobility, a separate driving mode and a large caliber gun. However, a very low visibility forces you to act exclusively on the front line.
Panhard AMD 178B и Hotchkiss EBR
The first two wheeled tanks do not have special driving modes, and stand out among their classmates with the highest power density and maximum speed. Both have fast good turret traverse and very fast aiming. The implementation of damage is also facilitated by comfortable UHL.
At first, you will have to put up with catastrophically low visibility and lack of armor, so you can only rely on speed. Panhard AMD 178B has a weaker gun, but the next car Hotchkiss EBR received exactly the same gun, but with the highest penetration by the base projectile.
Panhard AML Lynx 6×6
Starting from this level, French wheeled LTs have the ability to switch between two modes: high-speed (for maximum acceleration) and normal (maneuvering for smoother cornering).
Lynx 6x6 a serious device for its level, which has a good alpha and good penetration by the base projectile, and due to the increase in the caliber of the gun, it is also a high-explosive one. The survivability is still weak, and the vision remains unchanged compared to the previous level, so the only thing left to rely on is mobility and a solid stealth coefficient.
Panhard EBR 90
The pre-top armored vehicle, not only in terms of performance characteristics, but also in appearance, brings us closer to the coveted "top ten". A number of parameters are getting better:
- accuracy;
- information time;
- turret traverse speed;
- wheels occupy most of the equipment, so the chance of getting non-penetration increases;
- increased visibility;
- the best invisibility in its branch.
In the process of gaining experience for level 10, you can already confidently complete most of the LBZ and upgrade the crew.
Panhard EBR 105
At level 10, for all the difficulties in pumping players, a worthy reward awaits in the form of EBR 105 — the best among LT-10s in terms of average damage per battle and percentage of wins in 2019.
The armor penetration of the base projectile is not enough compared to the rest of the shells, but the cumulatives in this regard equalize the situation a little. The advantage in armor penetration by land mines is retained - 105 mm, so the cardboard equipment flies off quickly. One-time damage is the maximum for this class. The gun has excellent stabilization and very fast aiming.
The top branch is very demanding on the presence of an experienced crew, you need at least 4 levels of perks to be sure to choose:
- The Brotherhood of War.
- Disguise.
- Radio interception and Eagle Eye will increase visibility by 17,5 meters.
Many players use bonded equipment or at least an improved consumable Strong coffee + 10% to crew skills. But you can achieve a maximum view value of 445 meters by installing conventional equipment:
- enlightened optics +35 meters;
- improved ventilation + 10 meters.
Stealth with this configuration can be accelerated to 44,73%, which is quite enough to get close to weak-sighted opponents by transmitting intelligence and at the same time remain unnoticed to perform LBZ.
Summary results
This branch is demanding on the crew and the skill of the player, but it is the best now for active illumination, and in general it impresses among litsheks, and especially at level 10. In dynamic skirmishes, charioteers have no equal, because it is difficult to aim them, and they can cause inconvenience to anyone due to excellent gun stabilization, fast aiming, magnetic auto-aim and penetrating high-explosives.
A wheeled LT that has reached its maximum speed is very difficult to target for most vehicles due to mediocre stabilization of the guns, low projectile speed or long aiming, so they can distract the enemy’s attention for a long time while the allies push through the other flank or deal damage to your intelligence.
This branch is ideal now for tasks like the LT-9 Vigilant Eye, where you need to be the first to spot 6 enemy tanks. Now, when in a random house there are 3-4 light tanks in one team, the wheeled one manages to get to the front line first.
Like the previous branches, there is also a good option here with a prem tank Panhard EBR 75 (FL 10), which could be obtained for a marathon. One of the most iconic and highly anticipated premiums in the premium store, which has not yet gone on open sale in our region.
Read on:
What's the point of accelerating the view if the game says that you won't be able to spot anyone further than 445 meters?
Vision above 445 meters works to unmask the enemy, i.e. the higher the visibility, the higher the chance of noticing an enemy with good camouflage earlier or simply overexposing the enemy
I get it. Thank!
Yes sir!
ok understood thx
