Hello to all lovers of innovation, the site is with you! Friends, update 0.9.17 is coming pretty soon, which will bring a lot of new things, and now everyone has access to a test client, on which a new German heavy tank of the tenth level has appeared and is now in front of you Pz.Kpfw. VII guide.

The fact is that with the advent of the patch, an alternative branch of the development of German strands will appear in the game. The cars already familiar to you moved into it and, well, the new one will be the logical conclusion Pz.Kpfw. VII WoT tank . Let's take a closer look at this innovation so that you can understand whether it is worth downloading.

But I hasten to remind you that now there is an open testing stage, respectively, by the time of release, the parameters of this machine may still change. In addition, in its appearance Pz.Kpfw. VII has a twin brother - this is also a top German heavy, but they gave him out as a reward for battles on the global map, his name is or, as the players like to say, "tapkolev". However, in terms of performance characteristics, these machines are also similar, but there are quite a few differences.

TTX Pz.Kpfw. VII

As always, we will start with the fact that this German received at his disposal not a record, but very worthy margin of safety by the standards of the TT-10, as well as a good basic viewing range of 400 meters.

In the case of heavy tanks, their security always deserves special attention, and in our case this issue is no less important. At Pz.Kpfw. VII characteristics reservations, on the one hand, are very good, but on the other hand, there are some serious nuances.

For starters, the hull is heavily armored in the frontal projection, here the thickness of the armor plates is 240 millimeters everywhere, and even at a good angle, which is 40 millimeters more weighty than that of the VK 72.01(K). In general, you can tank really effectively, but you should be afraid of the gold and shots of the top tank destroyers.

The tower of our hero is identical to the one installed on the "tapkolva" and from the forehead Pz.Kpfw. VII World of Tanks protected somewhat worse than the body. However, almost the entire front part is covered by a huge mask of the gun, which has a very favorable ricochet shape, and the cheeks are perfectly sloping, thanks to which you can catch a lot of ricochets and non-penetrations.

But with the sides heavy tank Pz.Kpfw. VII It has serious problems and now you will understand what is at stake. Nominally 160 millimeters of armor is very bad, with the rear turret it would be possible to tank perfectly with a reverse diamond. But due to the fact that the front part of the hull is narrow, when turning the base of the tower opens to the enemy, shooting there, they will pierce us very easily.

In terms of driving characteristics, we can immediately say that we are practically the best among German top heavyweights, but this does not mean that the tank is very mobile. Pz.Kpfw. VII WoT has a good maximum speed (which is inferior to the maximum speed VK 72.01 (K)), but received weak dynamics and maneuverability. That is, we are not moving frankly slowly, rather a little tight, so that in general mobility is weak.

gun

The cannon is a fundamental feature of every tank, and looking ahead I will say that in our case the armament turned out to be truly formidable. In addition, this barrel has nothing to do with the one installed on the VK 72.01(K), but it's better or worse, judge for yourself.

So, at Pz.Kpfw. VII gun has a really powerful alpha strike, and, importantly, good performance rate of fire, making it possible to apply about 2100 units of pure level per minute.

In addition to good firepower, German heavy tank Pz.Kpfw. VII has outstanding penetration parameters. You will be able to pierce most of the enemies you meet with a regular armor-piercing projectile, but for a confrontation with heavies, you should carry about 10-15 sub-calibers with you.

In terms of accuracy, again everything is fine, since Pz.Kpfw. VII World of Tanks received a very pleasant dispersion for its caliber, good aiming speed and enviable stabilization, which makes us an extremely dangerous opponent.

The only parameter that is not quite comfortable is the vertical declination angle of the gun, but with the rear turret, the ability to lower the gun by 7 degrees is also a very worthy indicator.

Advantages and disadvantages

For most of the characteristics known to this moment, we can conclude that this German heavy is really good. But in order to realize the potential inherent in Pz.Kpfw. VII WoT, you need to clearly understand its advantages and disadvantages, so it is worth focusing on these details.
Pros:
good frontal armor;
Powerful alpha strike and decent DPM;
High penetration even in BB;
Excellent accuracy parameters;
Good Angles vertical aiming.
Minuses:
Weak mobility;
Vulnerable side armor;
Quite large dimensions.

Equipment for Pz.Kpfw. VII

In order to correctly complete the machine with additional modules, it is necessary to know its strengths and weak sides. In our case, it will be necessary to focus on increasing existing advantages, so that on tank Pz.Kpfw. VII equipment it is better to put it like this:
1. - this is the optimal and most demanded module for most tanks, because thanks to it the rate of fire and DPM increase.
2. - with the already existing excellent accuracy, this choice will allow you to deal damage very efficiently and comfortably.
3. - with the viewing parameters of our German, everything is also in order, and with optics you can easily achieve maximum "vision".

But as often happens, there is a worthy replacement for the third paragraph, and in our case it will be. A 5% boost to all the necessary characteristics is almost never superfluous, and if your crew has perks for visibility, then you won’t sag much by this parameter either.

Crew training

It makes no sense to remind you of the importance of pumping the crew, everyone understands perfectly well that a lot depends on the chosen skills. You just have to understand that you have a real heavy tank in your hands, which should hold back the enemy, but at the same time can deal tons of damage. So for Pz.Kpfw. VII perks learn the following:
Commander - , , , .
Gunner - , , , .
Driver mechanic - , , , .
Radio operator - , , , .
Loader - , , , .

Equipment for Pz.Kpfw. VII

The purchased equipment also plays an important role in the battle, and not only the saved margin of safety may depend on your choice. However, in cases where silver reserves are small, you can get by with a set of , , . Otherwise, it is much safer to carry on Pz.Kpfw. VII equipment in the form , , , and if you wish, you can replace the last option with .

Game tactics on Pz.Kpfw. VII

Judging by what this heavyweight is at the moment, we have a really strong car in our hands, although not without flaws. Taking mobility into account Pz.Kpfw. VII World of Tanks, we can say that this is a tank of one direction, so if you are unsure of your team, it is better not to go far from the base.

At the same time, we have a place on the front line, because for Pz.Kpfw. VII tactics is built on holding back the enemy, pushing through directions and inflicting a lot of damage, thanks to its excellent weapons. Speaking of tanking, you need to take a position where art can’t shoot at you and take damage only with your forehead, slightly dancing. It is dangerous to turn the hull, as we show the vulnerable base of the tower, into which we will be pierced.

At the same time, do not constantly be under fire, Pz.Kpfw. VII tank WoT has a really formidable gun and even despite its rate of fire, it is better to play from the alpha. We roll out of the shelter, substituting only the forehead of the hull or turret, make a shot and hide, everything is quite simple.

Otherwise, as already mentioned, look around and at the mini-map, beware of artillery shots, hide the sides and don't let yourself be carouseled. Heavy tank Pz.Kpfw. VII has low mobility, which means that any mobile ST can kill us without difficulty if it has room to maneuver.

Summing up, I would like to say that this unit has quite a lot in common with the special tank VK 72.01(K), especially in terms of appearance (the bands are almost twins) and armor parameters. However, at the moment it is clear that the Pz.Kpfw. The VII tank is slightly better protected and, in my opinion, its weapons are more versatile and formidable. What will happen in practice and what will be the final performance characteristics of our today's guest, time will tell.

4-06-2015, 19:36

Good day and welcome to the site! Today we are focusing on an incredibly strong and comfortable vehicle, a Soviet heavy premium tank of the seventh level, in front of you IS-2 guide.

Just by looking at this vehicle, that is, its unique camouflage, it is clear that this is one of the tanks of the Berlin Four. Moreover, it must be said that IS-2 World of Tanks differs from the pumped tank not only unique appearance what exactly is at stake, you will understand further.

By the way, if you want to become the proud owner of this unit, you won’t be able to buy it just like that, because IS-2 buy is possible only on the eve of May 9, however, like other equipment from the Berlin Four.

TTX IS-2

As usual, we will start our acquaintance with this vehicle with the fact that it has a low safety margin for a heavy tank of the seventh level and a terribly small viewing range of 350 meters.

If we talk about what are IS-2 characteristics survival, there really is something to be proud of, but armor should be used correctly. Let's start with the fact that the tower from the forehead is armored strangely. If the enemy shoots at our mask and at its edges, the probability of penetration is very high, since the thickness of the metal in these places is 100-110 millimeters. commander's cupola IS-2 WoT it also breaks through very easily, but if the enemy hits the so-called cheeks, which are located at an excellent angle, the probability of repelling the blow increases greatly, since here the reduction easily reaches 300 millimeters.

The main thing than Soviet heavy tank IS-2 differs from its pumped brother - the structure of the hull, or rather, its frontal part. In general, the armor of our VLD is better, it does not fall below 190 millimeters, and closer to the tower it goes beyond 200. But if you do not turn the hull, the VLD and the 115 mm NLD will break through equally easily, so we better hide the hull.

With the onboard projection, things change somewhat, I think it’s not worth saying that at a right angle IS-2 tank almost anyone can get through. But if you hide the front of the hull and at the same time set the side at an acute angle, the indicators of the reduced armor will quickly exceed 400 millimeters, which will make it possible to contain even 8 levels of shots, and wide tracks often “eat up” enemy shells.

Another nice nuance is that IS-2 World of Tanks is a movable strand, it has a good maximum speed, high dynamics for a heavy tank and decent maneuverability, which makes us a universal fighter.

gun

The armament will be familiar to absolutely every player who played on the Soviet heavys, in particular, we have exactly the same gun installed on board as on the fellow tank - IS, that is, the classic destructor.

Let's start with what IS-2 gun has a very powerful alpha strike for the TT-7, and thanks to this, even a low rate of fire will not prevent you from dealing about 1900 pure damage per minute.

The problem of this gun has always been and to this day is a weak penetration. Being at the top heavy tank IS-2 WoT is the king, because here you will never have problems with breaking through. But in battles against eights and even more so nines, it will not be superfluous to have gold with you, since the situations are different.

The need for gold sub-calibers increases even more due to the frankly poor accuracy of our guns. IS-2 World of Tanks has a very large spread, long convergence, as well as disgusting stabilization, which makes firing at long distances extremely inefficient, and the process of aiming is difficult.

As for the vertical aiming angles, they are also very mediocre. Down your cannon IS-2 tank can lower only 6 degrees, which is why you will not always be able to confidently play from the terrain and are somewhat limited in choosing a position.

Advantages and disadvantages

Of course, common performance characteristics we have considered vehicles and weapon parameters, but in order to fully understand this tank, it will not be superfluous to prepare for IS-2 review his weak and strengths, especially since it will be easier for you to build tactics and be equipped with everything you need.
Pros:
Good ricochet armor;
High mobility for strand;
Powerful alpha strike and damage per minute.
Minuses:
Disgusting review;
Weak armor penetration;
Very poor accuracy;
Full level combat.

Equipment for IS-2

Despite the small number of both weaknesses and strengths, this unit is in great need of right choice additional modules, by installing which you must simultaneously multiply the pros and level the cons. In general, there is only one correct combination for this heavy, so on tank IS-2 equipment the following is set:
1. - will make it possible to implement such powerful one-time damage more often, besides, our DPM will become even higher.
2. - we have huge problems with all the accuracy parameters, so at least the mixing speed needs to be improved.
3. - with this module we get a complex boost of characteristics, which will increase damage, accuracy and even give a little vision.

Crew training

The second way, which will allow you to play more confidently and efficiently, is to select and upgrade skills for crew members. There are initially more possible variations, but there are few really correct options, in any case, the sequence is important, that is, for IS-2 perks learn in this order:
Commander (radio operator) - , , , .
Gunner - , , , .
Driver mechanic - , , , .
Loader - , , , .

Equipment for IS-2

With consumables, everything is much simpler, here we are guided by the goal in battle and our reserves of silver. If you want to save and farm on this premium, buy , , . But for those who in battle want to give all their best and get the opportunity to get out of difficult situation, it is better to carry on IS-2 equipment from , , . Well, if you are not afraid of fires, which are already rare in the case of this tank, change the last option to .

Tactics of the game on the IS-2

In fact, in our hands is a machine with good mobility, strong armor and very formidable weapons, all this tells us that for IS-2 tactics Breakthrough and punching directions fit perfectly.

At the same time, you must understand that greatest strength this unit has being at the top of the list, because here there is enough mediocre penetration, and armor IS-2 World of Tanks able to hold back a lot of damage, and the gun itself seems incredibly formidable.

This means that being in the top you can perfectly tank by turning the hull a little, thus holding the enemy, or actively help the allies in the attack. But in any situation Soviet heavy tank IS-2 remains a melee fighter, because our oblique gun will not allow you to shoot effectively at long distances, and even more so to aim vulnerabilities in enemy armor.

When it comes to fighting at the bottom of the list or even against eights, we are more like a support tank that can actively attack and must stick to the front line, but tanking IS-2 WoT should leave for sturdier teammates.

But if there is a situation where you yourself have to take a hit on yourself and the enemy surpasses you in level and weapons, try to take an advantageous position. Most effectively take on the enemy IS-2 tank maybe if you hide the frontal projection and expose only the board from behind the shelter at a good angle. In this position, lure the enemy’s shot and while it is reloading, you can retreat to the allies, or carry out an attack, after which you again need to favorably substitute the armored board for the enemy.

For the rest, I would like to say that Soviet tank IS-2 really strong and can show himself well in different combat situations. However, you must try to level out the shortcomings of the machine, use the maximum of its advantages, and also play carefully, being afraid of artillery and watching everything that happens around you.

Introduction

Soviet heavy tank of the seventh level. As part of the game, this is one of the most popular "heavyweights", which is second only to the next one. At the same time, you buy one tank, and inside there are two of them. By rearranging the towers and guns, you will get both IS-1 with an 85 mm gun, and canonical IS-2 with a 122 mm gun. Such a spread of tactical use leads to the disorganization of the enemy. When he sees "Joseph", he simply does not know what to expect from him.

History reference

Development of a new heavy tank line "Joseph Stalin" started on the basis of and, and was a response to the appearance in 1942 of new German cars - and. The system for the production of breakthrough tanks by this time had been worked out and enriched with combat use. Due to the denser layout of the internal modules, it was possible to strengthen the armor, even with a decrease in weight.

After shelling the captured "Tiger" at the training ground, the original 76-mm guns and 122-mm shorties were replaced by more anti-tank gun 85 mm D-5T. As a result, the tower was expanded and an additional road wheel was added. The unit was put into production in 1943 under the index IS-85, but did not stay in production for long until he was replaced IS-122 who went down in history under IS-2.

In 1944 Soviet army conducted continuous offensive operations and broke open one line of fortifications after one. Under these conditions, anti-tank properties receded into the background. We needed a machine that could break through the field fortification. This tank has become IS-2- he participated in all operations of the final stage of the war and helped to take fortified cities, including Berlin. A total of 3395 such monsters were produced.

Game characteristics

In s, the Izya, thanks to its powerful gun, armor and mobility, has become a good assault tank. Consider its characteristics in the context of the game:

Protection

Our armor is good, but not the best. In the forehead 120 mm on the hull and 100 mm on the turret, the sides are protected by 90 mm of armor, 60 mm remain at the stern. Yes, sometimes you will get non-penetration and ricochets, but the same "Tiger" will sew you without problems. Therefore, do not hesitate to turn and rhombuses. But we have a worthy “heavy” strength - 1230 hit points. There is something to exchange in protracted duels.

Firepower

The cannons are what allow the "iza" to be flexible. If you want to play the role of "light heavy", then you can take a closer look at the guns 85 mm D-5T and 85 mm D-5T-85BM. They have good armor penetration, accuracy and rate of fire. There is also a compromise 100 mm D-10T, which shoots a little slower, but more accurate and more painful. But most players (and they are right in this!) choose the 122mm gun line. Although the DPM of the main guns is approximately the same - everyone likes to deal damage one-time and preferably with a frag detonation.

When you receive 122 mm D-2-5T, then we can already say - life is good. High one-time damage of 390 HP, as well as armor penetration of 175 mm with the base projectile, should command respect from enemies. Pumping to the top state in the face 122 mm D-25T slightly adjusts the characteristics in the direction of improving the rate of fire. The traditional disadvantages of all Soviet "log throwers" are vertical aiming angles - only six degrees down.

Dynamics

Mobility is not the main advantage of a heavy tank, but the IS has it very good. Top engine V-2-54IS gives 700 liters. With. and allows you to accelerate to 34 km / h. Reverse speed is also good - 14 km / h, which will fully allow us to use the "swing" tactics. caterpillars IS-2M give a turn of 35 degrees / sec and slightly increase the carrying capacity. Keep in mind that the stock tower spins better, but it has less visibility.

Discovery and communication

Top radio station 12PT gives a communication range of 625 meters - normal rate at the level for "strands". But the review of the Soviet silver carp has always been deplorable - only 350 meters. Although, given that we will not crawl out from the front line ... As for stealth, it is better than other heavy tanks, but still insufficient.

Pumping and equipment

What is the best way to study IP? If you played hard on, then you managed to pump out there 122 mm D-2-5T. Therefore, everything that separates you from it is only a tower IS-122. Download it for free experience and get the maximum "damage" on the level. Then you improve the tracks and put on them a new engine with a radio station. If you want to go in the direction of maneuver, and not damage, then leave the top turret alone and choose an 85 mm gun, or decide to shoot remotely - then a 100 mm gun is at your service. Then the tracks, the engine and the radio station.

The crew consists of four people. We download them for assault actions. First, “Repair” for everyone, then we reset the commander and set the “Sixth Sense”. At the second level, the crew must "Disguise" without fail, since every extra meter of visibility plays a role. The third level is "Combat Brotherhood".

As for special equipment, for the 122-mm cannon we choose the duel option: "Guns rammer", "Aiming drives" and "Ventilation". Airing the fighting compartment can be replaced with a “Tool Box”, because you will break often. If you decide to shoot from a distance with a 100-mm gun, then the following "purchase" is in priority: "Stereo Tube", "Guns Rammer", "Camouflage Net". You can choose your own setup for your individual playing style.

We place the following consumables: "Hand Fire Extinguisher", "Large First Aid Kit" (+15% to protection against wounds), "Large Repair Kit" (+10% to repair speed). The engine will burn infrequently, so you can replace the fire extinguisher with Doppaek or Lend-Lease Oil.

IP- heavy assault tank, which can sometimes play a breakout, on a par with CT.

At the very beginning, group up with the rest of the "strands" and choose the place of the breakthrough. Go there, but do not rush too much - wait for slower brothers. After that, you destroy heavy enemy tanks and roll with a steam roller to the enemy base. Sounds easy? Yes, this is not easy to do. Your one-time damage should not only destroy, but also intimidate opponents, stopping them vigorous activity on the flank. Therefore, do not merge ahead of time.

If you have chosen the light heavyweight specialization, then at the start you can join the allied pack of STs, strengthening them with your support. Your hit points will come in handy for them to cover. Yes, and the enemy "fireflies" and "middle peasants", seeing who turned around the corner IP, scatter in terror. After all, no one will consider what kind of gun he has there.

Shooting from the bushes or from the second line with a 100 mm gun is the easiest way to conduct combat operations. Know yourself get down and shoot. But this idyll will not last long. Either the front will roll back, or vice versa, it will roll. Then you will have to withdraw from your familiar place and again turn into a mobile tactical unit. But the curses of teammates can do this earlier, because in their view you are “heavy” and simply have to tank.

When finishing in an assault, always try to spread the enemy on the first shot. Usually, a reverse rhombus is enough for this - you drive up to the shelter, and then roll out backwards at an acute angle, spreading a shot at the "harp". After that, you can write out a missed pill for 390 HP. Repeat the procedure until determination or a sudden flash of intelligence in the enemy. Being in a group sight - be sure to sway back and forth to make it difficult to aim critical modules.

On the defensive, try to occupy narrow and shootable sectors. If possible - stick out the tower, sometimes the damage is eaten by the mask of the gun. Work for psychology - no one wants to die first and young. Sometimes it's better to lean out and not shoot than to shoot and wait for the guests while the slow reload is in progress. When the time runs out and the enemies attack you in a crowd, go into a deep clinch, hide behind the corpses and in every possible way provoke them into chaotic shooting. Live longer. And there the “log thrower” will reload.

An overview of the strengths and weaknesses of the tank. Results

pros:

Ultimate one-time damage
Tactically flexible choice of guns
Good ricochet armor
Lots of hit points
Excellent for "heavy" dynamics

Minuses:

Poor-sighted review
Sometimes balances on lvl 9
Stock is terrible
Armor does not always save

IP- one of the players' favorite heavy tanks at the seventh level. The damage of his "log thrower" remains relevant even at the eighth and ninth levels, which makes him indispensable in the support role. When he finds himself in the top, he simply tears those around him to tatters. Do not miss this ultimate car, give it a place in the hangar and periodically shake random one-shots.

Good luck in battle!

Good day and welcome to the site! Today we are focusing on an incredibly strong and comfortable vehicle, a Soviet heavy premium tank of the seventh level, in front of you IS-2 guide.

Just by looking at this vehicle, that is, its unique camouflage, it is clear that this is one of the tanks of the Berlin Four. Moreover, it must be said that IS-2 World of Tanks differs from the pumped tank not only in its unique appearance, what exactly is at stake, you will understand further.

TTX IS-2

As usual, we will start our acquaintance with this vehicle with the fact that it has a low safety margin for a heavy tank of the seventh level and a terribly small viewing range of 350 meters.

Another nice nuance is that IS-2 World of Tanks is a movable rod, it has a good maximum speed, high dynamics for a heavy tank and decent maneuverability, which makes us a universal fighter.

gun

Let's start with what IS-2 gun has a very powerful alpha strike for the TT-7, and thanks to this, even a low rate of fire will not prevent you from dealing about 1900 pure damage per minute.

Advantages and disadvantages

Of course, we have considered the general performance characteristics of the vehicle and the parameters of weapons, but in order to fully understand this tank, it will not be superfluous to prepare for IS-2 review its strengths and weaknesses, all the more so it will be easier for you to build tactics and be equipped with everything you need.
Pros:
Good ricochet armor;
High mobility for strand;
Powerful alpha strike and damage per minute.
Minuses:
Disgusting review;
Weak armor penetration;
Very poor accuracy;
Full level combat.

Equipment for IS-2

Despite a small number of both weaknesses and strengths, this unit really needs the right choice of additional modules, by installing which you must simultaneously multiply the pros and level the cons. In general, there is only one correct combination for this heavy, so on tank IS-2 equipment the following is set:
1. - will make it possible to implement such powerful one-time damage more often, besides, our DPM will become even higher.
2. - we have huge problems with all the accuracy parameters, so at least the mixing speed needs to be improved.
3. - with this module we get a complex boost of characteristics, which will increase damage, accuracy and even give a little vision.

Crew training

Equipment for IS-2

With consumables, everything is much simpler, here we are guided by the goal in battle and our reserves of silver. If you want to save and farm on this premium, buy , , . But for those who want to give their best in battle and get the opportunity to get out of a difficult situation, it is better to carry on IS-2 equipment from , , . Well, if you are not afraid of fires, which are already rare in the case of this tank, change the last option to .

Tactics of the game on the IS-2

In fact, in our hands is a machine with good mobility, strong armor and very formidable weapons, all this tells us that for IS-2 tactics Breakthrough and punching directions fit perfectly.

At the same time, you must understand that this unit has the greatest power being at the top of the list, because here there is enough mediocre penetration, and armor IS-2 World of Tanks able to hold back a lot of damage, and the gun itself seems incredibly formidable.

For the first time, the IS-2 "Berlinsky" appeared in the game as part of a promotion dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the Victory. Then the vehicle was removed from sale, but on major holidays the tank still appears in play store. The gift set includes an additional slot and a 100% crew with the “Combat Brotherhood” perk (skill) pumped out. It should be noted that the machine is not provided preferential level fights, so the heavy often throws up to the ninth levels. Consider the features of this technique in a detailed review.

IS-2 performance characteristics

So, the margin of safety of the IS-2 "Berlinsky" is 1,280 units, which is slightly higher than that of the pumped counterpart. The tank's base vision radius is expectedly weak - 350 meters. Considering that we are talking about a heavy tank, this figure does not look critical.
Engine power 600 l. With. This is less than a conventional IC, so the prem accelerates to only 34 km / h. At the same time, the IS-2 "Berlinsky" received good dynamics and maneuverability, the maximum speed is gained confidently, the chassis turning speed is 38 degrees.
In terms of armament, the IS-2 Berlinsky looks pretty good. Installed on the tank 122 mm gun D-25T with an indicator of armor penetration in 175 mm for an armor-piercing projectile. One-time damage varies within 390 units, which looks quite decent for a level 7. Such characteristics indicate that at the top of the list, the tank turns into a formidable vehicle that pierces any target and deals devastating damage.
In high-level battles, everything will look sadder, so you will have to target weak spots or carry a supply of gold. By the way, if we are talking about aiming, the gun has very mediocre accuracy, a large spread, and a long time of aiming 3.4 seconds. Therefore, it is better to forget about skirmishes at long distances. By the way, despite the poor accuracy, guns Soviet tanks often hit the target "from the top" - this is the inexplicable will of the random.

Equipment on the IS-2 "Berlinsky"

The choice of additional modules for any technique is important point, which increases the efficiency and survival of the machine. By the way, it is better to buy equipment during numerous promotions, when prices are reduced by 50%. If we talk about modules for the IS-2 "Berlinsky", then it is better to fill the slots like this:

Rammer.
Pickup drives.
Improved ventilation.
Some players replace ventilation with coated optics. However, this choice is obvious for more open maps, where you need to know where the enemy can fire from. The task of this class of equipment is to push / hold directions, so a ballistic lining or a toolbox will be a good alternative to ventilation.

Crew perks on the IS-2

The crew of the tank consists of four tankers, the commander combines his position with the duties of a radio operator. The “Combat Brotherhood” perk is set by default, so first of all we pump out the following individual skills:
1. Light bulb.
2. Smooth turret rotation.
3. King off-road.
4. Contactless BC.
Then, be sure to pump repairs to all tankers, then: personal skills of your choice. If we talk about combat consumables, we load the usual set. Some players replace the fire extinguisher with an additional ration, but doing so is risky: the IS-2 Berlinsky burns well.

Booking IS-2

Booking in the frontal projection of the IS-2 tower is 100 mm, taking into account the ricochet shape and wide gun mantlet, the indicators of the reduced armor will be significantly higher.
The VLD armor plate is also equal to 100 millimeters, the thickness of the hull sides is 90 mm. In principle, these are good parameters, and being at the top of the list, a tank will be able to confidently tank out damage, however, getting into high-level battles, the hull will definitely “absorb” almost any hits, in the case of a turret, the chance of a rebound remains high.

How to play the IS-2

The tactics of playing on the IS-2 "Berlinsky" looks standard for heavy tanks. We choose a flank (preferably with city buildings) and confidently squeeze out the enemy in the chosen direction, using the support of teammates. As an alternative, you can confidently defend the selected area by driving out from behind cover with a diamond, substituting the sides and forehead of the tower for hits.
On open maps, everything will be much sadder, so in any case, we try to find shelter from artillery or rush the direction together with the team. If the tank falls into the middle or bottom of the list, you need to be more careful: stay in 2 lines, and try to maximize the potential of the gun by hiding behind the backs of more armored comrades. Here you should not forget about accuracy, so do not rush and shoot only with full convergence.
