The American boy scout is back in the Premium Shop and ready to do its duty.

The full text of the news item

I have been waiting a long time to able to buy a boy scout....

[NicoPudel04]

Decent scout, but slow as hell all things considered.

Useless gold rounds, you will never fire them (150 alpha damage for 5600 credits) and you can get the tank from referral program.

 

Good to use, not worth buying, God help you if MM decides to pit you against Lynx's and EBR's.

[Mandalorian_the_Legend]

Rise the alpha damage to 170-180 and it's a good tank, it reloads slower than m41d, worse penetration and the heat is useless. top speed is trash, cammo is good, mobility is good...

i don't know i have marked the thing as other lights but i somehow find this alfa damage underwhelming.

I thought it's gonna be a new TotT announcement. Dissapointed.

"T92, be prepared to scout"... You go spot with a tier X arty? Nice! 

Anyway we really don't need arty ToT, thanks. 

[O_o_Babbuino]

T92

 

buy it

 

shoot full gold

 

and wonder

 

[Sturmi_0545]

definitely one of the less fun to play LTs with the 432 and Bulldog being around.

 

also, makes sense WG sells their premium tonks fast before Crew 2.0 erases the game's market value completely.

I'd advise against any further spending on the game until people know if they can live with the upcoming euthanasia of their crews.

 

Edit: remember, WG has not even been able yet to make the turn-off-button for dog tags work. how much can we expect for huge system overhauls then?

Well, I think everyone will agree with me T92 has a really good alpha damage when you hit the oposing team, really good splash to get assist but reload is a bit subpar.

 

Haven't tried it but as a tier 10 artillery I think its quite enjoyable

[SoberWhileDrunk]

Not a bad tank but you will not be happy taking 300+ HE damage from ebr and lt432.

[Cro006]

WG: increase its damage to 180, lower gold shell cost to 2800, increase its top speed by 6, don't nerf other stats and it will be decent balanced tank.

 

Players: don't buy stuff until you see what will happen with CREW 2.0.

I know da way.

Not bad tank, helps to l2p as passive scout and due to useless prem ammo farms credits very well, but isn’t worth to buy...for free (referral/ trade in) is good

[KINGxTOG]

Why get this when you can get the Russian version of this and better (lt432) plus I am waiting trade In to get it anyway

Insult towards Wargaming.

Not the best LT but I have fun in mine.

[Misago]

Please don't buy it. While it may be good in theory, and you can get the odd good game out of it, most of the time you will just end up immensely frustrated with it.

 

I play the T92 a lot, but it's not an outstanding scout, and it is not doing very well as a pocket medium either. If you compare it to ech tree tanks like Bulldog, WZ-132 or HWK, it can be decent, but it also faces EBRs (which are just gonna lolpen it with HE from basically every angle) or LT-432 (Better dpm, usable armor for a light, better effective mobility, better camo for some reason, slightly worse view range, russian) it will be more pain than joy. 

 

The gun is begging to be used to support the team from ambush positions, but it's just not up to the task. Get the Blackdog if you want a pocket medium, get the EVEN 90 if you want a spotter.

[Fr4kt]

Be prepared to scout? Really? Will we EVER see a honest sales pitch?

 

BE PREPARED TO DIE MISERABLY IN A FIRE as soon as an EBR farts anywhere near you.

 

There, I fixed that for you

EBR's rain on it's parade

Much better tier VIII lights out there (e.g. LT 432)

Much better tier VIII scouts out there (e.g. ELC Even 90)

Gold ammo is just "What?" - 5,600 credits for 150 alpha
