Better XP conversion is always welcome and these are some significant boosts.

My only question is - nothing for tier IX?

 

Obviously nothing tier IX because this is premium and elite tanks only.

T-55A qualifies as a premium for the XP event running today, but not the one tomorrow.

[Rustybolt]

So, pay for premium account, then pay to buy premium tanks, then pay again to convert free XP from already paid premium tank to use XP on chosen tank line, WG then later nerf that line after I've paid multiple times already with real money.

 

Glad I jumped off the WG merry-go-round years ago. I just play occasionally now for free and never pay them a penny. That's my business model.

[ThunderboltZ]

Will be great for grinding bad/stock tanks, every 3 wins you get that massive xp boost.

 

Thanks a bunch!

[EVILpanzer]

If U pay it will be a fast stock grind. Otherwise, not so much...

"Guys, if you want to be milked by WG, it's totally fine"

 

Blatant money making exercise pretended to be a "special". This doesn't incentivize me to play at all. At least have a x3 for the first victory as well.

 

The special's there, you can either actively participate or not, both ways are totally fine.

welp, time to roll with the big traktor.

For all those complaining.. In tear 10 is not premium! Not all are premium in 10 I think...

i dont understand the core concept of this event...you get XP on a tank that can not and will not directly aid you in tech tree progress. if you use the option to convert all combat XP to crew XP its mostly useless...

then comes the best part ... you get those XP on a tank you have purchased  and then you have  pay real money to convert those XP to free XP.... its like you are being sold drugs and then antidote from the same people. 

 

There are many people who like to accumulate elite experience ready to convert to free experience when there's a discount price. Others like to keep the crew accelerate ticked and use events like these to improve crew training significantly.

Not all specials need to be catered just to 1 individual player or set of the player base. It's important to make specials for all kinds of players

How about having every now and then an event where your can actually get GOLD? And I don't mean by clan wars or other 6-7 hours a day marathons.

Not hundreds or thousands, just a few, say 50 a month? That's hardly gonna bankrupt you...but would be very welcomed by most players.

There are plenty of people who have a lot of gold and while you believe 50 a month won't bankrupt if you consider this across all players then multiplied by each month of the year and you would soon come to a value that would affect any business.

We have all types of players, some who are happy to pay to skip a grind and those who want to grind without paying. Each to their own.

No need to delete a post for sarcasm. For the record I was being constructive. I suggested adding x3 for this event, to encourage players not caring about free xp or crew training. (It doesnt improve crew training significantly unless you have a very weak crew)

This is a very weak "special" designed to relieve players of their gold and really doesn't make players want to log in and play.

Or you enable accelerated crew training on your tank and get all that juicy XP for your crew.

 

Juicy?10k for 3win in first 10 or what,that is 5-8 battles not 3 for sure.Juicy is x5 on first victory not this.

You get this by just playing the game. I forgot that we are supposed to whine every time we don't get the best event in the game tho.

Surely, the threshold at WG for a post being labeled as non-constructive is microscopic at best. Especially when speaking out about topics like pay-to-win, overpowered premium tanks or money-milking events such as this one. I've got two warning points with one forum ban included, both after harmless arguments about monetizing of WoT. All of which a rich and powerful company should have the guts to take without silencing players/customers.

 

I saw your post after deletion because someone else quoted it. It wasn't offensive at all, just had elements of constructive and deliberate criticism. Yet it did get censored, so go figure.

Why not add catch "Premium Tank XP" fever this weekend tothe title to make it clearer?  On the face of it you think oh that's a cool boost for a few low tiers I'm grinding, then you instantly get that let down feeling once you come to the prem tank only requirements.  I mean it's fine if a customer has a prem tank then yes you get a crew xp boost but again it's one of those shoddy titles that somewhat mislead.  It keeps happening over and over, is it all lost in translation from Russion to English or do you have some ex sheepskin dodgy car traders writing your marketing fluff for you?

Hi All

 

Does the 300% crewskill personal reserve work on this exp reward?

[Mr_Deo]

When I pick a tier X tenk and go to the missions for it, it doesn't list the mission.   When I just go to missions I can see it (and the numbers do go up), odd display error.

 

Not a bad event for crew training tbh.

Tier 6 leo scout, end of battle I got 11k xp, 10k from a "mission completed" which unlocked the SPIC how this is possible I dont know.

Because you just completed the mission to earn 15k XP in one day, as part of the event preparing for Swedish mediums (last day is today).  Not related to the XP Fever event at all

 

[Rawbah]

Why i cannot do mission in LEO (swedish) tier 7

[RustiSwordz]

Oh it's for Premium vehicles only. So Wallet Warriors can only play it. What about us mere mortals that don't have Premium vehicles, you know. Bills to pay food to eat? Well we are stuffed it seems. Nice one WG.
