That post purchase grind looks like it sucks. Which is why I have ~107,000 free experience waiting when I unlock it in 28,000 experience :D

The other tier 9 mediums have this problem, except for the BatChat. Took forever to get the 10.5cm on the E50 (8.8cm L/100 at least helps with the grind), and the long 100mm takes even longer on the T-54....shooter XP grind, but the 100mm D-10 sucks, and I made the grind before the LB-1 was an option.

REALLY not looking forward to the Patton. It scares me enough that I almost don't want it at all. Seriously though, my E100 or IS-7 make better money than either my T-54 or E50 did when grinding, which is quite sad

The E-50 grind is quite annoying, but at least you start with 203 pen 88L71, and not all *that* bad if you can carry over the 1200 hp engine from the E-75. The T-54 and Patton have it worse. 203 penetration, you can at least hurt tanks. T-54? Enjoy 175 penetration. Patton? LOL 160 penetration. (You can't even mount the gun from the Pershing until you get the tracks) With the E-50 and T-54 you can still bully low tier tanks because of the frontal armor as well.

RAMMING SPEED

Ramming is a very effective tactic in the E-50.  I once rammed a batchat frontally for 851 damage.  Shot him once and a teammate finished him off all n a matter of about 3 seconds.  <3 my E-50.

the E50 ran me back to scouting and arty.


maybe ill get over the grind to get the 105, but it will take a while.

when i do get back to playing it ill grind for the 1200hp engine. playing t10 sucks. IMO.

I loved all three of those tanks. Each one is better than then last in every aspect. I didn't believe all the E-50 vets when they said its the best tank out there, but after getting it elited I can't stop rolling face with it.

Don't let the horrible grind get you down. Its well worth it.

Horrible? I like my Panther =( but I did unbelieveablely horrible in the VK3001H lol

[dsnoman]

^ i think the above person was referring to the actual grind to elite the E50 not the tanks leading up to as horrible. Because the panther, panther II and E50 rock. My E50 is my favorite tank to date. I prefer it over my E75. I always use the 105. That tank can just own with that gun.

im currently grinding for the 10.5 on the e-50 and man, it sucks so bad to be in tier 10 battles and not be able to do much.  i have a bad win % in my e50 so far which is bad because i had a 61% in my panther 2 which i loved. hopefully once i drop that huge gun on i can mash face again.

i did ram a type 59 that was capping our base for 500 dmg which at least put a smile on my face

40k until the 10.5 :(

[Harkonen_siegetank]

One time I got 16 kills in one match with the 105. Its true...
