I bought the Chinese tier 9 TD today. And luckily it's not gone that badly. Tho his stock gun vs tier X tanks has 270 pen. Not 171 pen. Idk why WG did not keep the 20 prd as a stock gun vs that 17. 17 has nothing to do on anything above tier 7 IMO with that pen.

And that's why you don't play stock T8 tanks in randoms. You either gather free xp beforehand,

to make them somewhat usable or grind some xp in other modes like teambattles/strongholds

or even in frontline when it's back.

Tho as WG have proved. It's not impossible for them to make the grind easier in terms of guns on tier 8. The AMX 65t is a good example. Best gun out of the box is the stock gun. Not a 171 pen gun that can't overmatch anything.

the stock caernarvon is ridiculously bad - just swallow hard and free XP the turret and decent gun, otherwise you've got a long, frustrating road ahead.

Its Random^TM

 

Edit: Personally I don't give a fudge and just bot-through the stock grinds. Typically I start to try and get some x2's to reduce the free xp amount, but then I usually just grind all the way through just to 'not give in' to WG tactic.
