Almost every player asked himself the question: which tank is best at its level and how it is divided into

It all depends on what parameter this rating is based on. Therefore, before rating cars, let’s figure out what parameters exist and what they influence. And, having mastered this information, we will find out, for example, in Wot which premium tier 8 tank is better.

Main parameters of combat vehicles:

No matter how different the tanks may seem, they were produced according to the same principles, which is why they have a standard set of parameters that differ only in values. Combat vehicles in the WoT game were made with the same set of parameters.
The main parameters include:
Number of strength units. This parameter directly affects the survivability indicator. After all, if you have a lot of HP, this means that you can withstand more hits with penetration and not die;
Hull armor. This value influences the important point of how enemies will be able to penetrate if they hit a certain part of the hull, or whether your armor will withstand a blow without being penetrated;
Tower armor. Similar in nature to the task of hull armor;
Speed. This indicator is responsible for the speed of movement of a combat vehicle on the map and the ability to quickly respond to changing situations, as well as timely provide support where necessary;
Penetration of a gun. Perhaps the most important indicator, which is responsible for the tank’s ability to inflict damage on enemies;
Damage. This parameter is responsible for how many units of durability the gun will remove with one hit with penetration;
Recharge. Affects how many rounds per minute the tank can fire if it fires immediately after reloading, and this affects how often you will deal damage to enemies;
Review. This indicator indicates how far the combat vehicle can see and at what maximum distance the enemy will be detected;
Specific power. This element indicates how quickly the combat vehicle can change its speed mode and reach maximum speed.
This is a list of the main performance characteristics of tanks presented in the WordofTanks game.

:


Knowing the above data, you can make a rating of the best medium tanks of tier 8 according to various parameters.
The strength units are Panthermit 8.8 cmL /71, T26E4 Super Pershing, T95E2. These cars have 1500 points.
The highest damage per shot is achieved by: Chinese T-34-3 and French M4A1 Revalorise and it is equal to 390 units.
The fastest tank is the AMX Chasseur de Chars, its speed is 57 km/h.
The most far-sighted vehicles turned out to be: the representative of the American school of tank building T - 69, the Chinese premium tank 59 - Patton and again the American T95E2, their visibility is 400 meters.


The main criterion for premium vehicles in the Word of Tanks game is its profitability, and this, in turn, directly depends on the damage caused. Therefore, the best machines for this parameter will be listed below, depending on the type of equipment.
Among tank destroyers, the German Rheinmetall Skorpion G stands out for this indicator; in one shot, this tank takes away 490 units of strength from the enemy.
One-time damage of 440 units among heavy tanks was given to representatives of the USSR called: Object 252U and.
But among medium tanks, the Chinese T-34-3 and the French M4A1 Revalorise stand out and their one-time damage is 390 units.


If in the case of high-level vehicles everything is less clear, then with tanks of the fifth and sixth levels not everything is so clear. Because at these levels, not everything depends on performance characteristics, but a lot depends on the overall impression of the car as a whole. Therefore, we will compile a Wot rating of the best tanks of levels 5-6, based on reviews of tankers and general statistics on tanks.
Medium tanks:
Among the representatives of medium tanks, two combat vehicles stand out. The first of them is the Soviet T 34-85. This tank can be called a universal fighter, since due to good camouflage it can shoot enemies from the bushes with almost impunity. Rational armor angles make it possible to frequently deflect enemy shells, and the comfortable and accurate gun successfully finds vulnerable spots and penetrates them even in high-level combat vehicles.
The second car should be a Briton named Cromwell. This tank has good visibility and excellent speed, which allows it, if necessary, to play the role of a light tank, and an accurate gun with a penetration of 145 mm and a good rate of fire successfully inflicts damage on enemies.
Tank destroyer:
Among anti-tank self-propelled guns, it is necessary to highlight the Soviet SU-100 and the American Hellcat.
Heavy tanks:
Among the heavies, three vehicles stand out: the Soviet KV - 85 and KV - 2, as well as the American M 6.
The KV-2 with a top-end high-explosive gun is capable of sending any lightly armored vehicle, even of a high level, into the hangar with one shot. The KV -85 also has an excellent weapon with one-time damage of 390 units, which is one of the best indicators for its level. The American M 6 is equipped with excellent frontal armor and an accurate, rapid-fire gun.
Light tanks:
Among the light tanks, the MT-25 from the Soviet research branch and the American T-37 stand out.
Self-propelled guns:
In the ranks of artillery, the following stand out: the British FV304, the American M44, the Soviet SU-8 and the German Hummel.

Any rating compiled is not completely uncontested, since different players are able to play on different vehicles and in order to understand whether a tank is good or bad for you personally, you must play it personally.


The main thing in the game is, obviously, the tanks. Historical, which existed and fought on different continents of the world, reliable paper models and bits of projects that have already been completed and thought out by the developers, each individual vehicle in the World of Tanks has its own, special and unique history. And, as they say, for every product there is a merchant, so in our game for every tank there is someone who can call it his favorite!

Well, I think it’s clear here that each player decides for himself which one is the best for him in the game, but we will try to tell you which ones are the most attractive, which are very pleasant to play, and easier/more accessible to play.

As you know, in our game there are X levels of equipment and at each level there are/are different heroes. In parallel with how bending tanks will be covered, we will also talk about the vehicles that are most popular on the World of Tanks servers. At each level we will highlight 3 cars (there will be exceptions) that stand out the most + a bonus that seems the most fun, as the players call it.
Although there are 10 levels in the game, we will start the review with tanks of the 5th level, since up to this level there are still frivolous vehicles, a sandbox, as most players like to call levels up to the 5th.

Level 5

At level V, there are several contenders for the title of best tank, and they are all Soviet.
Firstly, let's note the most popular for the game, not counting the first levels - this is the Soviet power of the KV-1. All-round armor, versatile guns, and of course, the historical component, gave this tank such a reputation! Every player, especially the older generation, considers it their duty to pump out this car.

Secondly, this is the T-34 - with no less rich history, compared to the KV-1, one of the best tanks of the war, which changed its course. What makes it so popular? Its hole-piercing guns are 57 mm ZiS-4, with high penetration but low damage. The two most popular branches in the game are the Soviet ST and TT, and through them, two great tanks are located at 5 levels: the T-34 and the KV-1.

And the third, only for the elite KV-220. It has excellent all-round armor, which is extremely difficult for level 5 guns to take, and even some sixes feel the problem of penetrating this vehicle, plus its preferential battle level! All this makes this tank a real gem, but it is very difficult to obtain.

The bonus on the 5s is the T67 - an American tank destroyer that does not feel like a tank destroyer. Excellent speed, stealth, high penetration and low silhouette allow you to bend over your classmates, and in battles at the bottom of the list, with the help of gold, not to feel suffering!

Level 6

At level VI, the three tanks have all three STs - one Soviet and two British.
Let's start with a legend that everyone, young and old, knows; almost every city has a monument to this significant T-34-85 tank.
The average USSR is a universal fighter on the battlefield; its excellent weapon with good AP penetration and comfortable gold for combat against 8-kilometers, accuracy and mobility make this tank popular. Of course, we should not forget that this tank is being pumped up because of its huge combat history, and the fact that it comes next after the T-34, but this does not make it any less excellent.


The second is the British Cromwell, a technique for real extras. Unlike the 34-85, the Cromwell does not have armor, but at the same time its maximum speed and cannon, coupled with stealth, allow it to achieve excellent results that will surprise even the driver himself.

And the third, new to World of Tanks - Sherman Firefly. One of the most successful models of British tank building, with the legendary OQF 17-pdr Gun Mk. VII, in which you can fight without gold even at the bottom of the list, even against 8 levels.
The bonus on 6s is the legend of the broads - KV-2. It is both for bending and for fun. His duda 152 mm M-10 with an alpha high explosive of 900 points allows him to fight even with X levels (!!!), where one shot at a Waffenträger auf E 100, or other cardboard machines, can deprive half of the HP.

Level 7

Level 7, according to players, is the most balanced, so choosing the top three here is very difficult.
The first, or rather the first ones, are IS/IS-2/IS-2. It is impossible to single out one of these machines, because they are almost identical, so we will add all three units to this list. The IS is the most famous tank, one of the 10 most popular tanks in World of Tanks. Its advantages are the D-25T with alpha from 390, mobility, turret armor. In the TOP, these vehicles do battle, distributing “Soviet henchmen”, and at the bottom of the list we play PT, imagining that you are an SU-122-44, which is also fighting with 9 levels with the same weapon.

The second unit is the German Tiger I. The German TT, which fought in World War II and has a rich history, is implemented superbly in the game. 1500 hit points, 8.8 cm Kw.K gun. 43 L/71 with 203mm breakdown, 240 alpha and with a DPM of 2000 points per minute, which is comfortable, pleasant and interesting to play. At the top of the list, the Tiger is a thunderstorm of enemies, punching through everyone, dismantling anyone with DPM, and at the bottom of the list we play PT, alternating BB with gold.

The third vehicle is the American heavy T29. If the 29 is from the mound, then even the 9th level will not be able to break through it the first time. The tank has strengths, but also has pain points. Its balance and application on the battlefield make it a great machine that you'll want to play again and again.

The bonus is the unit hated by everyone - a flea, a bug, a mosquito, a Gatling gun - this is a German tank destroyer E-25. An inconspicuous cart that causes a lot of problems for opponents, especially blind ones like Soviet TTs. Mosquito bites of 150 points in 3 seconds kill anyone who falls in the sights of this machine. Well, if you end up in an E-shek platoon, if you are in a field without cover and they are targeting you, expect trouble. The enormous popularity of the vehicle contributed to its withdrawal from sale, but there were no fewer of them in battles.

Tier 7 is so diverse that I would like to mention at least five more vehicles - these are the T-34-1, T71, M41 Walker Bulldog, LTTB and Spähpanzer SP I C. We won’t talk about them, we’ll just note that they are also worthy be on this list.

Level 8

We're getting to the top. Level VIII is no longer a sandbox. At these levels there is a global map, fortified areas and company battles.
The first tank at level 8 will be the IS-3. A vehicle that is suitable for all of the above battles, and also fills the random pool. Frontal armor of the hull and turret, the presence of bulwarks, a good gun, mobility and a low silhouette are the key to the success of the vehicle.

The second one is FCM 50t. The vehicle is not for everyone, as the huge hull and lack of armor make playing on the tank very difficult for beginners, but experienced players show excellent results on the tank, setting damage records over and over again. Tanks with a preferential combat level and an excellent 212 penetration gun, so suffering on this vehicle is excluded. An analogue of this car can be offered by another Frenchman - AMX Chasseur de chars. An even less armored vehicle, which bursts from land mines and does not have a preferential level, but has a high camouflage coefficient and the highest maximum speed at level VII among STs due to the Maybach HL 295 F engine of 1200 horsepower.

The third is another Frenchman, also a frequent guest in fortifications, companies and on the main battery - AMX 50100. A machine that can pick up any classmate in one drum and quickly escape from the scene of a crime - that’s its feature. The high penetration and alpha of 300 for each bullet is what sets the drum against all its enemies. But the most difficult thing is to change the CD of the drum at 50 seconds, when it becomes defenseless meat for the enemy. Another weak point is the lack of armor, but this is typical for all vehicles from the French branch.

Bonus for VIII, we note two vehicles - the British tank destroyer Charioteer and the Japanese medium STA 1. Both tanks are secretive samurai who conduct their battle from the shadows, supporting their butting allies. High CTA penetration and the excellent Chariothir 105 mm AT Gun L7 with 268 mm are the swords of these tanks, with which they pierce their opponents, even playing at the bottom of the list.
Another contender is the IS-6. Tanks that have become one of the most popular premium tanks in the game, having the same D-25T tank, armor and preferential combat level.

Level 9

A level 9 imba is considered to be an upgraded VK 45.02 (P) Ausf. B, or alpha sneaker, which was brought back to life the last couple of patches ago, increasing the thickness of the armor. Now VK 45.02 (P) Ausf. B tanks even X-tier tank destroyers, sometimes even their gold shells. To push the direction, or to restrain it, to be the first at the forefront of the attack - this is the real calling for this tank! Of course, it still has weak sides and enemy artillery, but these are small disadvantages compared to its advantage. Plus, the sneaker is also mobile, considering its weight.

The second copy is the German medium E 50. Another universal fighter who can tank at the right time and go to another part of the map. Having on board a cannon with German precision and high penetration, playing the epis, as it is called, becomes a pleasure. The E 50 can travel with allied STs, or be a second-line tank, moving with allied TTs. Who to be in battle is a choice only for the player, but with huge potential, like on the E 50, you definitely won’t have to suffer.

The third machine is M103. All American TTs are famous for their turret heads, and the 103 is no exception. Tanking even TOP guns with huge penetrations? It's very easy! An American can hold back even against multiple allies, or play cat and mouse with other opponents if the map allows. It is perfectly balanced, so you won't have to suffer on the M103.

The bonus on IX is the Soviet ST T-54. No matter how its turret was nerfed, no matter how its hull armor was changed, the 54 remains an excellent CT, one of the most popular at its level. Speed, mobility, low silhouette and the fact that the tank can forgive due to the armor provided - all this makes the vehicle so popular.

Level 10

The Xth level is the crown of each branch, the result of each nation. Each tank at this level has its own features, its own directions. Each has good characteristics. Of course, there are guns like the Waffenträger auf E 100, which will soon be replaced, or an ART-SAU, which does not allow you to relax normally in battle, as well as the presence of PT 10 with huge broads.
10s are the level of extremes. There are also drum TTs, there are also slow cast-iron walls such as Maus and E-100, and there are also versatile STs. Therefore, each player must choose for himself which tanks are interesting to him and to single out one of the others would not be correct, at least.

So, dear friends. This was only the opinion of one person, and not the crowd, because, as mentioned earlier, it depends on taste and color. But, undoubtedly, those provided in this list can bend, can become the best, but only in the hands of the right player.
And that is all! Go to World of Tanks and choose your own, the best in the game, and prove that it is truly the best! Good luck on the battlefields of the World of Tanks!

Dear friends, I am glad to welcome you all again!

The most significant place in the world of online games has been firmly occupied by simulators - from trains, planes, military equipment, ships, cars.

But none of the games of this genre can be compared with World of Tanks.

Here you don’t just have to monotonously plow roads, air or sea spaces, here you can take part in truly realistic battles.

That is why many are interested in the best tanks in the game and their choice.

The attention and love of a multi-million army of gamers is understandable and justified, but how to make the right choice? After all, the list of tanks in World of Tanks is impressive!

Let's think thoroughly and decide which of them are actually the best.

From this article you will learn:

Diverse world of tanks

Having started playing an exciting simulator, many beginners, and not only others, often simply fall into a stupor. The list of tanks is so impressive that it’s easy to get confused – almost 500 types!

The task of choice, however, is made easier by classification by nation:

  1. Japanese.
  2. Soviet.
  3. Chinese.
  4. German.
  5. French.
  6. British.
  7. American.

In addition, you can choose from types of armor and weapons (self-propelled guns, heavy, medium, light, tank destroyers) and by methods of receipt (gift/promotional, regular, premium). Let's look at some of the types in more detail, describing their capabilities and characteristics.

Why only some? I decided to focus on the machines that can be recognized as the best in their groups, since it is simply impossible to choose one leader. It all depends on your playing style and preferences.

What goals should a player strive for?

It makes sense that each player has a different style. Some gamers like to sit in ambushes, others like to play the role of “fireflies”.

You can do this or that in different ways, it is important to choose the right tank that best suits you.

First, decide what goals you are striving for, what do you want to get from World of Tanks?

To make it easier for you, I made a review of the tenth level tanks - the most effective and popular among players.

The best heavy tanks

The main task of these tanks is to go ahead, so they have quite serious damage and thick armor.

But no matter how strong the armor is, it is better not to expose them to attacks. This type of technique is suitable for gamers who prefer aggressive combat.

You can tank in different ways - from the sides, reverse diamonds, from the towers, and so on. The correct tactics depend on several factors, so German Tigers can be successfully tanked in both the first and second lines.

Among the best models are the German E-100 and the Soviet IS-7. The German World of Tanks tank has cool armor and two guns (to choose from). Quite serious, slow, huge, instilling fear in opponents.

The Soviet one has great damage and is very fast, though it often ricochets, but nevertheless remains the most popular.

The best medium tanks

The job of these combat vehicles is to enter from the flanks or rear and cause damage.

Tanks cannot boast of serious armor, but, unlike heavy ones, they are more mobile and cause more damage due to their constant ability to shoot.

The best medium tank in World of Tanks can be called the T-62A. In the skillful hands of a gamer, it becomes an unrivaled weapon, especially if the crew is upgraded.

In the development branch of this tank there are models that are easy for beginners to master: (for example, A-44, T-34).

The best light tanks

Although these machines are called “light”, inexperienced players should not choose them. Controlling such tanks is quite difficult.

They differ from others in maneuverability and better camouflage. Only experienced, “hands-on” players can play such models.

The best light tank in the game, in my opinion, is the Chinese WZ-132. Even when stock, this vehicle can be indispensable in team battles.

The best tank destroyers

In other words, an anti-tank self-propelled artillery unit in World of Tanks. The purpose of a tank destroyer is to inflict significant damage over long distances.

They are distinguished by high one-time damage, but have the disadvantage of prolonged aiming.

The most advanced model is the French AMX 50 Foch, capable of smashing any enemy tank to smithereens in a few seconds.

The best self-propelled guns

They are self-propelled artillery units. Although they lack armor, they are ideal for hitting enemies from long distances.

They differ in battle modes - the entire battle map is visible from above. I advise beginners to pay attention to French or British self-propelled guns.

The leaders in the game are the French Chatillon 155 58 self-propelled artillery unit and the Soviet object 261.

Tank development levels

The online game World of Tanks has 10 levels of development.

The players called the first four or five levels a “sandbox.” This is, so to speak, “grinding in”, first attempts, inclinations, simply studying the situation and choosing the appropriate style.

Levels five to seven are just farming and nothing more. It can be classified as a “profitable stage”, since the further you go, the more expensive the battles become.

The last levels give the opportunity to command newbies and incompetents, and increase the gamer's self-esteem.

Here is a list of the best tanks in World of Tanks. What should you choose? You won’t get a definite answer from anyone, just choose a branch where you can understand all the nuances of the game to the maximum.

At the same time, don’t aim for something complicated, wait, it’s not time yet. The tank should initially be easy to control and master. And then everything is simple - experience will come, and you can try it on any tanks, making the best choice for yourself.

Even better, gather a team by inviting friends from social networks. Don’t forget to subscribe to blog updates, together we are strong and can outshine all opponents!

Have a good game everyone, see you soon!

In the World of Tanks game, the most important thing is the tanks. Here are presented real-life combat vehicles, each of which has its own unique history. This is partly why this game is so popular in the world. Every player finds a good tank for himself in World of Tanks and calls it ideal. But in this review we will look at the most attractive cars that are fun to play and fight for the victory of your team.

It is quite difficult to select the 10 best World of Tanks tanks. After all, each car is good in its own way. Some tanks will be very fast, some will be powerful, and some will combine both high speed and power. And what criteria are used to determine the efficiency of the unit? However, each level has its own most successful combat vehicles, which we will try to highlight.

Let us immediately note that we will begin our review of good tanks in World of Tanks right from the fifth level, since below this level frivolous combat vehicles are used. They can hardly be called effective and interesting. In the WOT game, serious battles begin from the fifth level and above.

Level 5

To summarize, there are only 3 best tanks in World of Tanks at level 5. The first of them is the Soviet KV-1 unit. This is a fairly well-known Soviet machine, which had great success on the battlefields against Nazi Germany. This tank has a solid historical component, powerful all-round armor and versatile weapons. All this gave the tank a serious reputation in the game. Almost every older generation gamer considers it their duty to buy this tank and upgrade it to the maximum.

The second best tank in World of Tanks 2017 is also the Soviet T-34. It also has a rich history. It is believed that the T-34 combat vehicles changed the course of the war. In the game, this tank is valued for its high maneuverability, as well as for its 57 mm ZiS-4 gun, which easily penetrates armor but causes little damage. In the WOT game there are two popular development branches for medium and heavy tanks. At the fifth level, gamers have the opportunity to purchase similar combat vehicles.

There is also a cool one, but it’s quite difficult to get. In the game, users call it an “imba,” that is, a machine that is out of balance. Has all-round armor. It can barely be penetrated by a level 5 cannon. Even “sixes” often cannot damage the armor of the KV-220 tank.

Level 5 Bonus

A bonus at the fifth level is the T67 combat vehicle - this is an American anti-tank self-propelled gun with high speed of movement, stealth, low silhouette, and most importantly, high armor penetration. The unit easily destroys tanks of its level with one shot.

Level 6

At the sixth level, the best tanks in World of Tanks are represented by one Soviet and two British combat vehicles. It’s worth starting with the legendary T-34-85, monuments to which are in many Russian cities.

The T-34-85 is a Soviet medium tank that has maneuverability and a good gun that can penetrate tough armor. High accuracy, rate of fire, and maneuverability make the unit popular. His demand is also explained by his rich combat history, but this does not play a role in his fighting qualities, which are at their best. With the right tactics, positioning, and ammo, many experienced players have won victories in this Tier 6 tank against more powerful Tier 8 tanks.

The second good tank in World of Tanks at level 6 is the English Cromwell. The car is good for extras. Unlike the Soviet T-34-85, the British Cromwell has no armor at all, which is why the vehicle has enormous speed and a high-speed gun. All this gives a significant advantage to the player who, without any problems, “shines” enemy tanks for his team.

The third tank of the level is the Sherman Firefly. This combat vehicle has a cool OQF 17-pdr Gun Mk. VII, which allows you to effectively fight even against older tanks of the 8th level.

Level 6 Bonus

The bonus at this level is the Soviet KV-2 tank with very powerful armor and an M-10 152 mm cannon. This vehicle is capable of fighting even with level 10 units, not to mention combat vehicles of its own level. However, getting this tank is quite difficult. Therefore, it is extremely rare in the game, which cannot be said about the T-34-85. This is one of the most popular models, which is in the arsenal of almost every player.

Level 7

According to many gamers, the seventh level of the game is the most balanced. Consequently, it is difficult to single out equipment that would have significant advantages over other combat vehicles.

The first good tank in World of Tanks at level seven is the IS or IS-2. Both cars are almost identical to each other. Therefore, we will add them to this list. The IS is one of the most popular tanks in the game and is quite famous due to its powerful gun, mobility and armored turret. If such a tank of the seventh level finds itself in a battle with equal vehicles and tanks of a lower level, then the allied team has an easy time - the IS always goes straight into battle. And often this ends well. If the IS gets into battle with tanks of a higher level, then shooting from cover is a good tactic that also brings results.

The second unit is the Tiger I. This German heavy tank took part in World War II. It also has a rich history, and in-game its execution is simply amazing. The vehicle has 1500 hit points and is equipped with a Kw.K gun. 43 L/71. Playing on such a tank is pleasant and fun. But if a vehicle gets into battle with tanks of a higher level, then tactics need to be developed as for anti-tank artillery.

The third best vehicle is the T29 heavy tank with powerful armor that sometimes even level 9 vehicles cannot penetrate. Of course, it has its advantages, but there are also weaknesses. A good balance between armor, mobility and damage makes this vehicle almost universal and convenient for use on the battlefield, which explains the popularity of the tank.

Premium tank level 7

At level 7, the best premium tank in World of Tanks is the so-called “Gatling gun”, or “flea” - this is the German E-25 anti-tank self-propelled gun. It's a very small car and hard to get into. It causes a lot of problems for clumsy and “blind” vehicles such as Soviet TT tanks. The E-25 does little damage. However, the rate of fire and accuracy infuriate opponents who fall under the gun of this “flea.” Unfortunately, this car has become so popular that it is no longer even on sale. However, there are no fewer of them on the battlefield, because those players who managed to buy it or win it for completing tasks actively use it to “farm” money.

The seventh level is so rich in cool tanks that the following vehicles are worth highlighting separately:

  1. T-34-1.
  2. Spähpanzer SP I C.
  3. LTTB.
  4. M41 Walker Bulldog.

All these models should also be on this list.

Level 8

At this level, there are already quite serious tanks that take part in company battles, global maps, and fortified areas.

In World of Tanks, the best Tier 8 tank is the IS-3. This vehicle is ideal for all of the above battle modes due to its frontal armor on the turret and hull, high-quality gun, low silhouette and mobility. All this makes such a tank successful on the battlefield.

In second place is the FCM 50t - a very difficult machine to play on which beginners will constantly lose. It is a slow and large tank with no armor that is easy to destroy. However, experienced players set records with this tank again and again. As an analogue, we can offer AMX Chasseur de chars. This car has even weaker armor. However, the camouflage factor of this tank is high, making it difficult to detect. The model also has a very high speed, which is guaranteed by the Maybach HL 295 F engine with 1200 horsepower. Among the best medium tanks in World of Tanks, the AMX Chasseur de chars deserves attention first of all. You just need to know how to play it, and such a machine cannot be recommended for combat to a beginner.

The AMX 50100 is the next best Tier 8 tank and is often found in company battles and fortified areas. Such a combat vehicle is capable of destroying any tank of its class in 1-2 shots and quickly “escaping” from the scene of the crime. This is exactly how most players try to use the machine. The biggest drawback of the tank is its long reload time, lasting 50 seconds. During this time, the tank is “meat” for the enemy. The second weak point is the lack of armor. However, this is typical for many French cars.

Level 8 Bonus

Bonus tanks of the eighth level are the British-made Charioteer tank destroyer and the Japanese medium tank STA 1. These are hidden combat vehicles that are perfectly camouflaged. Therefore, it is appropriate to use them as support for allied tanks that are fighting on the main battlefield.

Level 9

The improved tank VK 45.02 (P) Ausf is an imba (that is, an unbalanced vehicle), which, with its new durable armor, represents one of the best tanks at later levels. The technique perfectly holds back the enemy’s onslaught and can be at the forefront of the attack. However, it is important for her not to “glow”. After all, the sides of the tank are very weak, and a shell hit from the side will be fraught with bad consequences. But mobility partly solves this problem.

The second model is the German medium tank E 50. This is a universal vehicle that can suddenly open up in an unexpected area of ​​the map, coming from behind enemy lines. It can also be used as a heavy tank for frontal attack. Thanks to high mobility and a powerful, accurate gun, playing the “epis” (as this model is called by players) is a lot of fun. This machine gives the player many options for fighting, and he himself decides which tactics to choose. This opens up great opportunities for an experienced gamer, but even a beginner will find it quite pleasant to drive this tank. However, if a player has reached level 9, then he can hardly be called a beginner.

M103 is the third best heavy tank of tier 9. This American example has high armor at the front, which can withstand hits from large calibers. Therefore, it is appropriate to use it in battle as the main penetrating force. And if the map allows, then due to its good mobility the tank allows you to play “cat and mouse” with enemies.

Level 9 Bonus

The bonus vehicle at level 9 is the Soviet medium tank T-54. The developers deteriorated this vehicle several times, reducing the thickness of the hull armor. However, this tank is still very popular and a worthy contender for the title of best. High speed, low silhouette and mobility - these are the advantages of the machine.

Level 10

At the last, 10th, level there are the best tanks, which are to some extent the result of the technical development of each nation. All cars of this level have their own “chips” and have good characteristics. Naturally, there are even imbats such as ART-SAU, PT 10 and Waffenträger auf which must be replaced.

In general, it is almost impossible to single out the best World of Tanks tier 10 tank. After all, we are always talking about extremes. There are huge “cast iron walls” that are difficult to break through, there are powerful drum heavy vehicles, as well as diverse medium tanks. Consequently, the player will have to make a choice and determine for himself which tank is better in World of Tanks. After all, the excellent balancing of the game does not allow us to select the best car, which would be superior to others in all (or at least half) of the parameters. Therefore, among the “dozens” it is impossible to single out just one tank.

Conclusion

Each player determines the best combat vehicle for himself to the best of his abilities and playing style. Some people like to butt heads with heavy tanks, while others prefer to quickly move around the map in order to find targets for their team. The developers very carefully worked out the characteristics of all combat vehicles in the game and eliminated situations where most players choose the same unit, forgetting about the others.

At the moment, more than 290 military vehicles of the past are available in World of Tanks. Each tank has its own strengths and weaknesses, but there are some vehicles that are extremely comfortable to play on; these tanks really bend over backwards. We have selected for you the best tanks at each level so that you know what exactly to buy in order to have the greatest influence on the outcome of the battle. In general, if you want to bend over, read the material!

Before we start, let me tell you about how the tanks for the material were selected. Server-wide statistics for each tank were taken as a basis. The highest win percentage was counted. However, some corrections were made, because there were situations when the equipment was new and only experienced players upgraded it, which is why the percentage of victories on the tank was much higher without any reason. In addition, the material did not include such vehicles as, for example, the KV-220, the statistics of which are very high, but the tank is now impossible to get.

Some levels housed several tanks, because it was very difficult to choose the best one.

First level - MS-1 (49.08% wins on the server)

The undisputed leader comes from the USSR - MS-1. Thanks to its complex of characteristics, Moska mercilessly oppresses newcomers and faggots who have just entered the game and have tens of thousands of battles behind them.

The MS-1 does not have armor (at the first level no one has it), amazing dynamics or accuracy... But a 45mm gun can deprive the enemy of 47 HP, which is quite a lot. In addition, the tank is small in size, which reduces the likelihood of being hit.

Second level - PzKpfw 38H735 (f) (56.53% wins on the server)

Although I promised not to include in the article tanks that are impossible to obtain, I simply cannot help but talk about the Minimouse, since this unusually protected tank can simply brutally destroy random battles thanks to its luxurious armor.

Pay attention to the win percentage on the server - 56.53% is very, very high. And all because the PzKpfw 38H735 (f) has absolutely amazing 40mm thick all-round armor. Classmates by level break through Minimouse with great difficulty, and first-level machines may not even try to do this (unless the same MS-1 can try and it is unlikely to succeed).

In addition, this 40mm armor is located not only in the forehead and sides but also, attention, in the stern. Among the disadvantages of the PzKpfw 38H735 (f) it should be noted its low speed and not very high penetration. However, these shortcomings are easily compensated by the luxurious advantages of the car.

But enough choking on your saliva, let's move on to the machines that you can buy and on which you can bend no worse than the PzKpfw 38H735 (f).

T18 (50.43% wins on the server)

Do you want to bend at the second level? Please, there is nothing complicated about this, for this you will need straight arms and a small accessory in the form of an American T18 tank destroyer. Why is T18 better than its classmates? It's simple - thanks to the huge one-time damage, a tank destroyer can literally one-shot enemies, and thanks to its excellent speed, you can quickly react to the situation on the battlefield, which changes at lightning speed in the sandbox. It is also worth mentioning the good 51mm armor of the tank destroyer, which can save you from shots in difficult times.

Of course, it was not without its drawbacks. You should always remember that you are a tank destroyer, not a tank - the T18 does not have a turret, so an enemy that gets behind the lines can cause you a lot of problems. And the enemy can get used to the board, which is also not very pleasant.

And one more thing - to guarantee high damage, carry Serbogold with you, if, of course, you have enough silver.

T2 Light Tank (53.95% win rate on the server)

If T18 is created for those who like to one-shot the enemy, then T2 Light Tank will appeal to players who love fast rides. This is one of the fastest tanks in the game, so you can always hope that the tank's engine will help you out in difficult times. For example, when a base is captured, you can quickly return and knock down the capture.

In addition, in addition to speed, the T2 Light Tank boasts an unusual weapon - a machine gun that destroys 12 units of HP in one hit. If you know how to use these weapons correctly, you can work real miracles.

The tank also has disadvantages, for example, a complete lack of armor and not very high maneuverability, which will play a cruel joke on you more than once.

T2 Light Tank in all its glory, watch video

As you can see, at the second level you can choose between two tanks. Consider what style of play you like.

Third level - FCM36 Pak40 (59.02%)

A phenomenally high percentage of victories on this French tank destroyer FCM36 Pak40! This is not surprising - powerful weapons and good armor (machine guns are not scary) allow you to work real miracles.

In addition, the PT unit boasts phenomenal visibility at its level - as much as 400 meters! You see the enemy when the enemy does not even suspect that he is glowing like a Christmas tree. Properly using the visibility and power of the FCM36 Pak40 gun, it can carry through the toughest battles. And don’t be scared by the fact that the FCM36 Pak40 costs real money, the price is not very high, only 850 gold coins. Believe me, this is a small price to pay for bending.

The disadvantages include low speed and not very large horizontal aiming angles. The disadvantages are not very significant; the advantages outweigh them several times.

Level four - Hetzer (49.45% win rate on the server)

At the fourth level, it was quite difficult to choose the most bending tank, since almost all the vehicles are quite average in their characteristics. However, an interesting tank destroyer at this level is also called “Hetzer”. True, for comfortable and effective bending you will need a lot of silver. Thick frontal armor and an excellent land mine, capable of depriving an enemy of 350 HP, make Hetzer a real monster. Of course, for a comfortable game you need to shoot with serbogold in order to maximize your chances of inflicting those same 350 units of damage.

The vehicle is quite unique and in inept hands the Hetzer will infuriate the tank driver with its low speed.

Fifth level

KV-1 (49.1% win rate)

Don’t look at the fact that the KV-1 has such a low win percentage on the server. This is due to the fact that the tank is extremely popular, and the statistics on it correspond most closely to the concept of “balance”. Excellent protection at its level, excellent weapons, but poor mobility and visibility - these are the key features of this tank. Getting into the TOP, the KV-1 drags the battle and is the main combat unit of the team.

View about KV-1

S-35 CA (52.21% win rate on the server)

The second vehicle for bending at the fifth level is the S-35 CA, which has absolutely lethal weapons - a 105mm gun can upset the enemy by as much as 300 hit points, which is a record among its classmates. Huge number! If an evil VBR throws you to the top of the list, then you can be punished mercilessly.

The machine's disadvantages are standard - lack of armor, low speed and low strength. But believe me, these shortcomings are compensated by crazy damage. And the visibility of the S-35 CA is excellent - we can see as much as 400 meters. If you install a light and a pipe... Soviet blind tanks will suffer, suffer a lot;).

Open spoiler

AT 2 (52.23% win rate)

This tank destroyer is suitable only for those players who adore the sound of shells bouncing off them. Thanks to the record thickness of the armor, AT 2 survives where the rest of the team would have already merged. Just imagine, at the fifth level we have access to as much as 203mm of frontal armor! Damn, this is so cool that you can’t even wish for anything better.

The stern and sides are, of course, less well armored, but 101mm is also very helpful.

What characteristics of the AT 2 were sacrificed for the Serb? Weapons and speed. We move with the speed of a turtle and bite the enemy with the strength of a mosquito. Which, however, does not prevent this tank destroyer from bending brutally, especially on city maps where there are many narrow passages.

Playing on AT 2 became even more comfortable after update 0.8.6, since the evil SU-26 imba was nerfed. Feel free to buy if you like armored tanks. A lot of emotions are guaranteed.

Sixth level

KV-1S (49.06%)

A recognized imba in World of Tanks. The most brutal one-time damage of 390 units, enemy tanks burst in two shots. In addition to an excellent gun, Kvass has good mobility, which is quite unexpected for a tank that deals such wild damage.

The advantages are compensated by not very good armor (but there are ricochets, and quite often) and a high probability of fire (perks will help you).

The most popular tank in the game - it’s not for nothing that the “kvaskaktank” meme is alive and well. "Kwaskaktank, can it hold a blow?"

Look

M18 Hellcat (51.31% win rate)

High speed and excellent weapons are a deadly combination, especially in the realities of the World of Tanks. The Cat from Hell M18 is capable of not only dragging out battles, but also giving the tanker completely new emotions, because it is in this tank destroyer that you will find speed and a good gun. But a weak penetration is not a problem.

M18 Hellcat is a chic alternative to Kvass.

Level seven - PzKpfw VI Tiger (P) (50.19% win rate)

The seventh level, like the fourth, is also difficult to choose a bending technique. Many, of course, will prefer the Soviet IS, but I choose the German PzKpfw VI Tiger (P), which I advise you to do too, because if you use this wonderful machine correctly, you will enjoy every battle.

Excellent armor penetration and good 200mm armor make the tank truly interesting. Of course, low mobility and low one-time damage should be taken into account. But even despite these disadvantages, the PzKpfw VI Tiger (P) can bend. And if you place the tank in a diamond shape, enemy shells will regularly bounce off the vehicle.

Watch the video

Eighth level - IS-3 (48.69%)

And again we have an undisputed leader at our level. Quite a rare occurrence, but the IS-3 at level eight is the best tank. It has everything - a great weapon, good armor, mobility... The disadvantages are very insignificant - poor visibility and long aiming times are easily offset by its advantages.

Feel free to buy if you are looking for the most bending tank at the eighth level. The IS-3 is especially transformed after purchasing the 122 mm BL-9 gun, which increases armor penetration to 225 mm.

Look

Ninth level

T54E1 (51.83% win rate)

Despite its weak armor, the T54E1 is still capable of firing randomly, using its loading drum, which is capable of delivering 1560 damage. In addition, the T54E1 also has good dynamics, allowing it to quickly respond to a changing situation on the battlefield.

Show video

T-54 (49.32% win rate)

Armament, armor, speed - the T-54 has no disadvantages, only advantages. An extremely nice tank in World of Tanks, which is capable of bending not only in straight hands.

Show

T57 Heavy Tank (51.66% win rate)

And again our guest is a relatively new American tank with a loading drum. Powerful weapons, good dynamics and very fast reloading of the drum are compensated by weak armor and a small margin of safety.

However, if you don’t expose yourself to enemy shots, you can hit record numbers in the “damage” column. One of the most enjoyable tanks at the moment.

Open video spoiler

AMX 50 Foch (155) (53.54% win rate)

How can we do without Focha, who after patch 0.8.6 became especially popular due to the almost complete absence of artillery in battles. It has excellent armor, a loading drum for three shells and excellent dynamics. The AMX 50 Foch (155) is a perfect example of how the most significant advantages can be present in one machine.

The disadvantages are insignificant - the lack of armor in the stern and sides, as well as the low margin of safety, practically does not play a role in random battles. Foch 155 is now bending like never before.

Well, friends, that's all for me. Of course, not everyone will agree with this list of tanks, but I tried to collect the equipment taking into account all the factors as much as possible - the percentage of wins on the server, player voting, as well as personal feelings and observations. But in the end I will say one thing - even the most disgusting tank can bend. It all depends on your hands, the characteristics of the car are in the background, they only complement your skill.

Good luck in your battles and quickly level up!
