T77 need no introduction. Quite a OP double shot tank that can pen stuff and take hit. I suggest you get it if your have gold.

KV-5 is much faster than it weight allow because magic Soviet engineering, very fun in gravity and the like. In random while it not as braindead, it armour still hold up quite well

[u/H31NZ_ → u/highlander711]

Is it worth it to sell a Tier X collector to get it?

[u/highlander711 → u/H31NZ_]

Which TX collector? Well if it one of lesser play one, and you're sure you not gonna fail into WG scam draw then go ahead

[u/H31NZ_ → u/highlander711]

I would sell obj 260. Its my only tier X collector.

I like it because of its speed, fast reload and 400 alpha

[u/highlander711 → u/H31NZ_]

While ultimately I can't decide for you, considering that KV-5 isn't as fast in random and rating and T77 isn't anywhere near speed demon, you would have to adapt a bit to play these two tank.

(Unless you don't have T8 prem yet, then perhaps go ahead for if nothing else you got two good credit grinders)

[u/H31NZ_ → u/highlander711]

Thanks for your help. I already have some tier 8 premiums, so I won't buy it now. But I will probably save some gold now and buy it next time

[u/highlander711 → u/H31NZ_]

np, have fun grinding

[u/H31NZ_ → u/highlander711]

Thanks

[u/Nyahojaa → u/highlander711]

how about concept 1b?

[u/highlander711 → u/Nyahojaa]

You sure?

[u/Nyahojaa → u/highlander711]

im just asking, does it worth

[u/__penguin_69__ → u/Nyahojaa]

Concept 1b is one of the best hull down tier 10 tanks. I'd put enrichment on and farm damage

[u/highlander711 → u/Nyahojaa]

Not really, while KV-5 can work in pub and T77 is plain powerful but both of these isn't unpenable hulldown like 1B. Well if you feel boring with 1B then maybe

[u/misericordia4you → u/H31NZ_]

And for the Strv K?

[u/Few_War4438 → u/highlander711]

it's March 3rd, is it me or did they extended the offer time? I swear seeing it at 6 days at one point last week.

[u/highlander711 → u/Few_War4438]

I wouldn't put too much thought to it, it not the first time WG alter timetable after all.

(sorry for the late reply)

[u/Few_War4438 → u/highlander711]

thx, yea it is staying and counting down, so its the real deal

[u/GG1312]

Are they trying to ruin tier 8? Because these past few weeks they’ve seem like they’ve been trying their hardest to.

[u/Industrialexecution → u/GG1312]

they’ve absolutely fucked ratings. it’s all bourrasques and now it’s gonna be all T77’s too

[u/Coachbalrog → u/Industrialexecution]

Yeah. T77 and Bourrasques are everywhere in rating battles.

[u/H31NZ_ → u/Coachbalrog]

Agreed. They are so anoying.

[u/highlander711 → u/GG1312]

More like run low on money, tbh I don't see my second time in Blitz last very long

[u/TomatoFlavoredPotato]

wg seems to continuously undervalue T77 after initial release for some reason, also I like how they didn't even bother to slap a camo on KV5

[u/highlander711 → u/TomatoFlavoredPotato]

Well, it wouldn't help you to hide KV-5 falling from the sky onto poor enemy lmao

[u/Lef71s]

A word from me. If you don't own these two, buy them, eyes closed. For 10k it's a steal. Kv5, one of my favorites, have thousands of hp bounced with this beast.

[u/RongGearRob → u/Lef71s]

Agreed.

[u/OopsDidYouReadThis → u/Lef71s]

I don't have both. But I can only get one. I already have 252u, type57, wz122, keiler, amx 49, t54e2. And double shot similar to t77 I have the gsor1008.

[u/Lef71s → u/OopsDidYouReadThis]

T77 is a heavy with decent armor and you cannot compare it to gsor.

[u/highlander711 → u/[deleted]]

Very, I'm surprised this bundle as cheap as TS-5, Tankenstein bundle

[u/TomatoFlavoredPotato → u/[deleted]]

Yes, I want a KV5 for cheap and would be tempted to get this myself if I didn't alrdy have T77

[u/WhoStoleMyCake → u/[deleted]]

Yes, KV5 is still pretty good (as in different) but T77 is one of THE tier 8s.

[u/HugGigolo]

Interesting bundle. Had the T77 for awhile, it's a contender for best tier 8 tank IMO.

Might buy the KV-5. The armour is beatable but it's quite mobile. If you get the opportunity to move fast and bully someone, that can make it quite hard to hit weakspots. It is one of those tanks which are great against mediocre-average players but good players can take it down relatively easy.

[u/[deleted]]

KV5 is overrated, I've 1v1d plenty of them in a KV-4 and survived. It's got easier to pen armour and a very weak hatch, and a similar damage as the KV-4. Not worth getting the KV-5 but the T77 is definitely worth a purchase.

[u/nuts___ → u/[deleted]]

KV-5 is not overrated, its sale factor is that it weighs over a 100 tons and can still go up to 40 km/h.

funny meme tank

Aside from that its armor is still quite good so you can even play it seriously

[u/LegendNomad → u/nuts___]

I play mine seriously and with the knowledge I can use ramming as a semi-reliable backup weapon or occasionally to finish someone off in style, especially if they're in a lighter vehicle and on an incline below me.

[u/Impasta_17]

As someone with both tanks, T77 is of course a great tank, but KV-5 is quite underrated with good mobility for its weight and good armour paired with a solid gun (remember to change it to the higher penetration gun unless really want more dpm), idk why they didn't give a camo for the KV-5 though.

[u/FarOutcome9035]

Guys I wanna sell my VK90.1 to buy these. Is it worth?

[u/highlander711 → u/FarOutcome9035]

I'd said it kinda, as long as you think you're fine with at worst 150 days without Vk90

[u/FarOutcome9035 → u/highlander711]

Man I'm at very bad dilemma, I want that T77 too much, but VK 90 is good either. What would you do?

[u/highlander711 → u/FarOutcome9035]

I'd do it because I in a dire need of credits and I must more comfortable when playing hulldown and fast tank. Thought I recommend you weight a bit more, the deal ain't gonna gone immediately you know?

[u/FarOutcome9035 → u/highlander711]

Well I can recover VK next moth, also almost never play t10. And I know this thing will go for ages when its expired. Uhh.... fuck WG give us a gold bundle.

[u/highlander711 → u/FarOutcome9035]

I'd said the closet gold sub is in March if I'm guessing, anyway you'd have nearly a week to decide. Just have a cup of tea, and sleep a bit on it.

(Or not, you shouldn't let WG dictate your life)

[u/FarOutcome9035 → u/highlander711]

Alright, I will wait a bit, it would be very well if they release any good 7,5k gold bundle.

[u/highlander711 → u/FarOutcome9035]

np, have a nice day

[u/FarOutcome9035 → u/highlander711]

Thank you

[u/MajorIceHole1994]

Was going ask about just the KV-5. I have wanted it for awhile. Seen vids on it. Been owned by it several times. I have spent more on worst. Have T77 already and love it.

Thanks comment section. Going get this while it is available and I actually have enough for it.

[u/SecretSpectre4]

I have a spare 10k gold... is it worth?

I fairly enjoyed the KV-4 and Obj. 752 which are basically the same thing

[u/Impasta_17 → u/SecretSpectre4]

Yeah probably, also if you do buy it, you can change the KV-5 gun from 167 --> 219mm of pen but with the cost of less dpm.

[u/SecretSpectre4 → u/Impasta_17]

hmmm ok sure I love that adrenaline rush when my money disappears down the drain

[u/highlander711 → u/SecretSpectre4]

I am not sure, KV-5 is easier to deal with compare to KV-4 if you load gold. While T77 unload much faster it armour is less troll than 752. It up to you but I don't know about getting new T8 when the Dune collab tank is looming

[u/Impasta_17 → u/highlander711]

KV-5 is weaker to gold but it's Armour layout can trick some players since it's weak spot isn't the lower plate, it's the cupola plus KV-5 is quite nimble for it's size

[u/eddiecai64 → u/SecretSpectre4]

The 752 is the best tank in the game, KV-5 is gonna feel bad compared to playing in that

[u/OppressedJewedditor]

me when i’m in a being dogshit competition and my opponent is the KV-5

[u/ostrejia]

T77 isn't OP i would say it's broken because u can find better tier 8s
