Bino, rammer, vent

First all repair cause you're just not agile enough, just don't pick camo cause you're bigger then a normal house.

i used:

Modules: rammer, vents, binocs

Skills:
commander: 6th sense (very important)
driver: clutch brake (important)
all: brothers in arms, repair

I made over 640 battles with my Ferdi (one of my favorite tank) and I use:

- bino, autoloader, cammo net

- commander: 6th sense (the most important thing in crew :) )
- driver: clutch brake (important)
- gunner: designated Target
- loader: intuition
- second loader: Adrenaline Rush
- radio operator: situational Awareness
- all: cammo

you sure CrazyMartin?

Ferdi has got the camo factor of a pink elephant on the north pole.
Don't think that will help an awful lot

All crew with cammo and cammo net and you no longer pink elephant

Belive me. My commander has 6th sense and i know how close they must go to my gun to see mee :)

My record in bush is 65 meters to Panther and still hide !!!!

@CrazyMartin
With those stats - I like the repair skill more:

(source: http://www.wotdb.info/#Tank Destroyers Ferdinand)
0.03/0.06 Invisibility factor [moving/still]

a Jagpanzer 4 got:
0.3/0.6 Invisibility factor [moving/still]

But If it's working for you - not bad!
I'm now at the Jagdtiger - now that's a pink elephant for sure ;)

I know this pain. I have Jagdtiger too.
:)
"Pink elephant factor" isnt the worst thing with this tank.
:)
Without premium account its very hard to play it and NOT LOST TOO MUCH MONEY even if you win.
:(
Maybe better gun will help ...

Maybe you should play at least 1 game to get Ferdi?

WotDB is outdated in terms of camo values. Useless source. Use those new spreadsheets that are found on the internet. With the knowledge of the camofactor-formula, you'll see that even large tanks greatly benefit from camo-stuff.

I use the rammer, the GLD and the vents. For skills, commander Eagle Eye, Gunner Dead Eye, as the most important. Radio Operator Signal boosting and repairs on the loaders.
