Battle pass missions are now separate from regular daily missions, and instead of 80 levels of battle pass missions,.there are merely 60. You get a set of 6 mission types every week, with each mission type having three “steps”. Most players I’m listening to are not terribly happy about some missions. One of the complaints is that “you need 100 tanks to have the types of tanks they want” on various missions.
Otherwise, systematic application of the “Minus 3 rule” has led to a steady increase in win rate. Back in December, I had a 48% win rate and played large numbers of games whether I was winning or not. It took about a week for it to drop below 47% and I’ve been working back ever since. To remind people, the idea behind the minus three rule is to play more on days you win and play less on days you lose.
It needs to be said that one day your WR can go up 0.2%, and the next it can drop 0.2%. WR improvements are an exercise in patience. But looking at Blitzstars, I have played 2399 games. My 30 day, as of today, is 53.1%, my WR is 48.1% and my WR in tier VI is now 47.9%.
In terms of tanks played and playing, I mostly play the Kryos. I play some 40 TP Habicha. I still touch the ARL-44 but I’m having some fun with the Hab. It plays a bit like an M6, but it is smaller and harder to hit; the gun is about the same as the M6. My success with the Kryos has me looking at other tanks (TDs) like it. My brother is currently playing the Tier 8 Chinese TD, the WZ-111-1G-FT.
In terms of other reads, Irma Becx has an article on the US Tier 8 medium, the Pershing. I recommend this article quite a bit.
