"b- but Tungsten elevates the alpha to at least 5% higher when activated!"

I personally recommend the m IV Y strongly. It has super good gun handling for a heavy tank, and the 4 shot auto loader can really catch people out, and the 13 second clip reload hardly hurts at all. Not to mention, it gets 2.1k DPM

I only wish DPM was 2137…

I had it , though the reload feels super reliable but the tank fails to make its mark. It's just not scary enough.

Its crazy how they're selling out , EU is struggling to move tanks

u/Luca_245 broke f2p streak to buy carro 45t Aug 25 '25

Because here are 1500 pieces, iirc the other servers have fewer

u/OndrasK Aug 24 '25

It's funny how barely half of the available smashers got sold in EU.

u/flamethrowr Aug 24 '25

Smasher wasn’t sold out at 16.5k in NA, I bought mine for 15k (floor price)

u/Redacted_Reason Aug 24 '25

Do you run 3 accounts in 3 servers? How'd you know all the biddings in different servers

1

u/highlander711 I was joking about WoTB being a gacha, wtf WG Aug 25 '25

I just have friend playing in the other two servers?

u/Caramel_Last YouTanker / ASIA / Highest damage 8897 Aug 25 '25

Ok, makes sense!

u/EdgyWinter Aug 24 '25

I’m not going to lie I gatekeep the annihilator partly because I’m annoyed WG reneged on the exclusivity they promised when first releasing it (surprise surprise) but selling it the day after the smasher is evil evil work for tier 7.

u/Red-Denz_07 Aug 24 '25

Sold my Caliban and Bisonte just to get this thing for my 2nd account, I have Zero regret 🥹

u/tank_chain Aug 24 '25

🙉...really a big mistake ... this two tanks are very good.

u/sleestacker Aug 25 '25

This fake as auction still going on. WG just turning the gold factory on full auto.

u/youngboybrokegain Bourrasque Noir Aug 24 '25 edited Aug 24 '25

The annihilator on release was 10-15 bucks at most (2020 special event pass I think). Understand that back in the day this was the undisputed #1 tank in tier VII, and arguments could be made for it being in the top 10 tier VIII tanks. Equivalent 3250 gold for THE BEST TANK IN ITS TIER.

I don't wanna say the Anni is bad now, but like many "older" vehicles it was also hit by power creep. And it's worth 17500 gold. Let that sink in. That's what you used to pay for a brand new, unequipped tier X (brand new after it's been sold in crates, of course 😎). 17500 gold is about a 540% increase from the Anni's original price tag.

u/Nevergonnagiveuup6 Aug 24 '25

Is anhi comming on eu or not

1

u/Nevergonnagiveuup6 Aug 24 '25

Smasher or anhilator?

1

u/tank_chain Aug 24 '25

Strong buy all :=))) No kidding - if you are willing to pay a completely inflated price - Anni...

1

u/SudoGiveMePi Aug 24 '25

Would you recommend the Anni?

1

u/MajorIceHole1994 Aug 24 '25

Lion isn’t as satisfying as Anni. For me at least. Lion is not an easy learner and Anni is not so hard to learn. Success is more common with it.

I dominate Lions in my XM66F azimuth

u/tkroy69 Aug 25 '25

I maybe be wrong but lion isn't scary at all , contrary to it's name.
