Garbo and a POS tonk. 

 

I got it for free when it got moved out of the regular tech tree. Glad I didnt pay money for it. And for the longest of times it was my only prem tank along with the hype 59. I dont think I have driven it for 2-3 years, and I very much doubt I will any time soon, unless they buff it, which they wont.

"Classic" is Wargaming-Speak for "Hopelessly outdated due to relentless powercreep." I have a number of these "classics" collecting dust in my garage ... that's hundreds of Euros wasted. In case anybody wonders why I am no longer willing to pay 25€+ for WoT premium tanks.

I Have itt,

I was drunk one day, it was at offer, like now, i remembered how good it was...

If somebody want a tank to be a kill for a tier 6, can choose T34

His gun is designed for short range combat, the tank not

I think..only Churchill gun carrier, or polish mediums are worst than this tank

My precious! Got it for free in 0.7.2 and make with it tons of credits in almost 3k battles :D. Solid credit maker, due to high penetration shells. I play it mostly when i'm tired and need easy credits :D

I still like it, is above average tank, but is costs too much and is way too balanced for the new tier 8 premiums. People nowdays are spoiled and buy only almost OP/OP tanks

I don't know why, but, somehow I love this tank. I even prefer it over the Patriot (constantly seeing tier 10 vehicles before MM update). Call me crazy, but it us how I feel it. My biggest issues are speed and aimtime. Nothing else.
About IS-6: For an average player like me, it is performing surprisingly well. Actually ATM it is my best performing vehicle (XP). LOL

In a situation where you got the hull hidden/covered and pointing the gun down to hide the weak turret roof armor, it is doing ok. But that does not happen often, and together with the poor aiming time, reload time and DPM the T34 imo could really use a buff to make it playable again.

The best thing about buying this tank, is the feeling when you sell it right after.

WG made a nice gesture and provided me a 30% off coupon (for my performance and commitment). It seems, even thought it is obsolete, an okay deal to get the T-34 for 28 (40-12) euros. 

 

......But wait....coupon says "Enjoy an exclusive 30% discount on Tank-only and Premium Account bundles in World of Tanks. It does not include special offers, discounted items, or limited-time offers."

 

Well, thank you, but not,

400 dmg gun is better dpm wise but big alpha sounds interesting, to be honest! :)

Why does this thing still exist in the shop when the Patriot comes up for sale every month or so?!

It was the unique selling point a long time ago to have high alpha, high penetration. I'm all in for a change! :)

Ah yeah, it's that tank that's still balancing for WoT back in 2012 with it's terrible 1600DPM base and super bad mobility.

 

Until this tank is brought up to 2019 balancing standards, there is no incentive to buy it as the Patriot is better in every single way.

 

Cobra 6

 

Every SINGLE way...LOL...

Patriot 400 alpha..LOL

patriot 248 standart pen .....LOL

patriot 297 gold pen....  LOL

patriot 0.35 accuracy.. LOL

:child:

SUCH PATRIOT....MUCH LOL

To bait people in buying another underperfoming tank and regret later.Maybe trade it for 50% .Win-Win.

Dont think anyone wants a murican HT trainer these days,all you need is a T-29 from this line.:trollface:

 

WG if you wanna sell old premium tanks why not modernize them?.Not to defender lvl but more playable.I guess buffing old premiums would prevent some veteran players from buying another silver making tank.From this prospective i can understand.It would be like shooting their own foot.
