Artillery shouldn't need a guide.


Edit: Although there were some good tips in there. :)

Interesting. Never realized you could look at other parts of the map without losing your aim. Overall a good guide, although I do not neccesarilly agree with their crew skill choices. I find camo to be very usefull, and I can't see adrenillin rush ever coming into play.

In higher tier SPGs with 500+ HP, it can actually help.
Say you're splashed due to counter battery fire and survive.

The su8 and su5 were top fun. But damn, 14 shells sucked.

I'm surprised they never mentioned counter battery in this.  It's one of the biggest things you have to look out for as an arty.  Sure they indirectly approach it by saying that you need to relocate constantly, but they never tell you why you have to do it.

CB is overrated. Id much rather be pumelling tanks than blowing up grass. If people are too stupid to move, they probably suck at hitting tanks too.

In many matches with +3 arty in both side, somebody has to counter.

Question: Why was not the French Tier 4 Premium 105 leFH18B2 included as part of this video? It is the same one which is a gift special now.

i use two skill that help me switch between ammo type , with 30 % of chance that the ammo type you need is already loaded , this can be crucial if you need an AP round for a very high health enemy coming to get you that you can't kill with HE

i never realize that snipe shot helps even SPG , well it's good it's a skill , not a perk , i will added as 4th skill then
