I always wished spall liner would add a few milimeters of extra armor ( 5-10mm at most) everywhere on the tank, since you know, its an extra layer of steel. It would also justify its weight. And for the camo net, i think your camo bonus should gradually decrease the faster you are going, and not instantly disappear when you start moving.

Bond Vents are worth it. Especially if you have a lot of skills.

Unless you are a collector and want to collect bond tanks...

Alright chems consider this: Food is immediately S Tier, because it boosts nearly everything. BOND Vents give you 8,5% which means 4,25% increase of stats that are effected by crew skills. It's almost half percentage you get from food. Vents should be at least C tier. But the most important thing you didn't mention is the possibility of combining equipment. Vents therefore decrease the need for optics, stab, and improved aiming. Basic example: You don't need optics and stab on Leo 1 cause it has very good values from the start. Instead you take BOND Vents and you will get a noticeable improvement in overall performance. Stab or Optic would be a wasted slot. You can't compare the DPM increase when using vents, cause it's minor. It's the overall effect it has in combination with other equipment. In my Leo I use Rammer, Hardening and Vents (all Bond) + Food Non-bond-vents are useless, that's true.

[@adanenedary7350]

Tbh when I first time play WoT and I saw vents. I tought it'll help your crew to reach 100% faster XD. Also basic vents kinda useful for new player to find it's playstyle. Because the more they play, the more they know the strength and weakness of the tanks without spending so much credits. (This just my opinion)

[@niallmartin4098]

I agree bond vents definitely have a place. Bond vents + food takes my Borat to just over max view range, so I don't need optics, and the vents will boost other stats which it makes better use of. Bloom after firing, camo, reload etc. Same on the Char futur.

[@capbuster1424]

to be fair...vents is a piece of equipment...and there are better options for equipment food on the other side is a consumable...and you can easily replace the extinguisher (which...tbh when was the last time you used it compared to a repair and med kit) with food I personally have a reserve of 1k normal extinguishers and 500 premium extinguishers....and the numbers are still growing maybe you'll need a extinguisher once every 15 games....that is 1 consumable slot wasted for 14 games on the other hand...you can feel the effects of the equipment you use in every game you play and imho, in agreement with chems...spending bonds on equipment is just not worth it...there are simply better things to get with bonds...not to mention you can only "farm" bonds from tier 10 games... I personally dropped vents on my bourrasque for a turbo - turbo + rot device/vert stab + optics (all normal equipment and no food cause i'm cheap) and I am having better games than when I was using vents

[@JosephZepeda]

Chems is wrong on vents. A 5% increase to skill crew gives 2.5% increase to every skill-based stat. This means a standard vent is 1/4 of a rammer (2.5% vs 10% faster reloading), 1/2 of an improved aiming (2.5% vs 10% smaller dispersion vs), 1/4 a rotation device (2.5% lower dispersion and 2.5% faster traverse vs 10% and 10%), 1/4 of an improved optics (2.5% vs 10% more view range), 1/4 of a gun laying drive (2.5% vs 10% shorter aiming time), ~1/4 of an additional grouser (2.5% better traverse and ground resistances vs 10% and 15%), >1/3 a low noise muffler (2.5% more concealment vs 6%). Bonds vents is even better because unlike most other bond equipment it is a 70% (4.25%/2.5%=1.7) improvement over the standard. Compare that to a bond gun rammer which is only a 35% improvement (13.5/10%=1.35). Vents is at least B tier. The only tanks that shouldn't use it are tanks that are so bad at some crucial stat that they need to invest in another equipment get maximum improvement.

[@vuxluongw]

but then why waste bonds on vents when there's bond rammer and bond hardening to be purchased. comparing vents to the stuff of its same type/color, it is still very much D tier equipment, simply because it's a bad investment

I think you forgot that improved rotation mechanism actually decreases the bloom while turning so you are faster at target with the same bloom which imo is a clear advantage. Also on the double barrel tanks i think it has its use cause they turn the turret very slow and, as you rightfully stated, verstabs isnt needed on them. Overall solid Tier List 👍

[@lukebedros674]

He explained that bloom is correlated with rotation speed. So u turn faster, it probably offsets the accuracy u gain from rotation mechanism. If not hurts it even more than it helps

[@SuperMorganator]

@@lukebedros674 if thats the case then wg is really dumb (as we all know) but i wanna see that tested ingame

[@MikeRogersZA]

I think both@@SuperMorganator and @chems are correct. The IRM description specifically says it reduces disperson by 10% during movement, traverse and after firing. So this will provide a 10% improvement to dispersion (relative to not having IRM) when simply moving and firing (whch is good - and I think overlooked by @chems) but will be offset by the 10% greater dispersion caused during the faster rotation (which was @chems' point). So don't get IRM for better accuracy during rotation - get it for better accuracy during movement and after firing, and for faster rotation with normal (but not worse) rotation inaccuracy.

[@wolfaja755]

Bind vents give a 4.5% increase to almost every stat of the tank, you bundle that with good crew skills and you have a tank that is just outright 4.5% better. It’s similar to experimental equipment being a mix of two other types of equipment basically nullifying the other two completely when at t3. Using vents with good crew skill and a few other pieces of equipment can get something like the 60tp down to a dispersion of .33 , aim time of 2.49 (can be improved with different field mods down to 2.24), view range of 449 , dispersion during tank traverse of .19, dispersion during movement of .18, dispersion during turret rotation of .08, and a 15.24 second reload. If you drop the experiential fire control system and vents and replace them with hardening and very stabs the results are very interesting. You end up with a .6 second longer reload, .32 second longer aim time, .02 worst dispersion while stationary, .03 better while doing anything except turret traverse which is .1 better you’re just as fast on hard and med terrain but 1 slower on soft, you healthier by 330 which is big however I find that when I die in a 60tp it’s usually because my team died by just running at the enemy and it goes from a 5v5 to a 5v1 so I’m not sure how much better that is I have to do testing, your view rant is almost 20 meters less as well. The only benefits for not running bond vents is dispersion values during movement and hp everything else is worse. I find with my 60tp I typically don’t fire on the move and I make micro adjustments where my aim time counteracts any added dispersion from the movement by the time I fire. Overall the benefits from vents on something like a 60tp outweighs using any other type of equipment and if I wanted better dispersion while moving I could swap out my fire control with very stabs and trade sometime for better dispersion while moving and that’s the only difference. In doing so I still have .1 better aim time with the same dispersion values as running without vents except I have vents and I get all the same increase to view range, aim time, ground resistances, and reload speed. You could run another piece of equipment instead of hardening except you’re now wasting the bonus slot and therefore not using the full potential of the build. Theoretically you could get on par with vents in terms of aiming with a gun laying drive but you’d still be down on everything else and on par with health. You turn your only benefit into moving dispersion and that’s it. Worst loading speeds, view range, dispersion, ground resistances, repair speed, traverse speed, and yes even camo if you have that perk. They aren’t minuscule amounts of disparities either, we’re talking .25 faster repairs, a degree a second in both turret and track travers, 20 meters less view, 1 kmh slower (this is the low one), .02 more dispersion, .6 slower reload. I mean you’re just worse across the board without vents especially in vehicles with so bad statistics on reload, gun handling and mobility. Really don’t see why you think vents are so bad when they can do this much.

[@perelmanych]

Two points. Vents increase also all perks, so it is much more useful when you have crew with 4+ perks. Second, VStab not only directly decreases loading time but also indirectly increases your DPM, since you can waste less time on aiming and start to load new shell faster. Regarding bond equipment, you still may use it if you do not have enough bounty equipment for all you tanks that you want be available in Onslaught regimen.

I feel like experimental turbo is direct upgrade to all tanks that don't need more enginepower but need more accuracy or traverse speed, turtle 1 for example, with mediocre gun handling really appreciates the small increase, also really benefitting from faster turn speed, making it harder for people to out turn you.

[@chrissdevano]

As for the other experimental equipment: fire control system is game changing on autoloaders with poor gun handling. You mentioned the Foch B and how it needs 2 pieces of equipment to reach a sensible bloom in between its shots. With fcs, it only needs 1. Would also recommend on bourrasque. Mobility whatever system I would say is mostly useful on tanks with poor gun handling that you want to use turbo on. Tanks that come to mind are BZ-75, BZ-176 and 60TP. Hope that helps :) PS.

You're wrong about vents man, sure, on a barebone tank with noob crew its somewhat useless (still boosts everything by a decent margin) but the more skills you have trained, the more it makes sense to invest in it, BIA and rstions. Heck, on many tanks with the view range skills, BIA and venting system + rations can replace optics entirely, while giving you many other rather significant boosts. It can be the difference between you getting spotted and not, because it boosts camo further. It can half the time of the intuition reload speed! It can add about a third to your turning speed and help you gain and maintain speed a good bit. Also it all acts as about over half a rammer, half an inproved aiming unit, aiming speed, etc, etc. So yeah, both with and without rations, if you have about half the crew skills trained, vents (hopefully bounty or bond) can make a huge impact. You're wrong on the usefulness of a lot of other equipment too, along with possible paintings. Also wrong on dpm, because in most cases, you dont even get to use it for most the game, if not all the game, because after one shot you get spotted and can no longer shoot until you're clear, and even if you get to shoot from a douvle or far bush, enemies rarely are out in the open long enough to unload freely and make use of it. Its only really useful in brawls, end game when you either might get a bit extra ad you win or another shot in if you lose... All in all equipment only depends on what tank you play and how you play it and wbat you wanna do. For example, for the strv, and especially UDES03 the turbo is BASICALLY MANDATORY, as it adds speed in siege mode, which for the UDES especially, with its lack of armor and longer mode change is a savior because you can run behind a hill instead of changing. The binoculars are great for them too, because theyre active despite hull traverse in siege mode... Binos are useful on many others too.

This should be attached to the equipment selection screen inside the game...

[@sidneyleejohnson]

Thank you for encouraging us to save our bonds for special tanks. I think some of the equipment can go up or down based upon the situation (tank stats and/or crew available). Vents are more significant for a crew with all the skills for example? Or camo for tanks with very decent camo ratings (esp low tiers where this might help you earn that ace?) . Example take a M3 Lee and try to earn its ace without hiding behind bushes with a 100% camo crew and maybe a net? Some tanks just can't be trusted anywhere but behind a bush. lol. Ok extreme example but it literally was the only way I found myself winning with a M3 Lee. Sorry to everyone who lost the games with me in them before I played the M3 Lee like a Ninja (behind BIG bushes no less). Overall though I really thought your comments were very helpful. I think you managed to review them without over using the term "Meta" so thanks for that too. That said you did mention that the top 3 were used most frequently but didn't apply to every situation. Perfect! That said I do think your specific goal matters. Sometimes you have to think about what you are trying to accomplish, what map you are assigned to play in and learn to make adjustments that can leverage your situation. For example there may be missions (daily or campaign) that are more or less achievable with a different gear load out. You may have to think about your equipment to be able to complete these missions and then swap back to the normal advice after you get your mission.

i always thought spall liner could somehow improve armor of the tank since the HE changes, or at least if there was bounty and bond version of it

[@lazygamez7280]

8:35 use that on arty so when you sell it you get an additional 300k credits

[@dragonflable5305]

The camo net is actually kinda useful on swede tds because you can do a full 360 but the camo net will stay on. Agreed, it is kinda useless on anything else tho

[@StayKwimp_]

like they dont have enough camo already

[@ldSt3345]

Nope. They need, absolutely, a turbo to go MUCH faster in siege mode (10→15 or even 5→10 on udes), rammer because everything needs a rammer, and something to spot, either optics or binocs depending on your playstyle

[@peterashton7522]

Thanks for this. I've got some choices coming up on equipment coming from BP and this is really helpful.

[@EvansTurin]

I agree with the rating, only thing left to see is if vents can climb to C tier from the next patch as any major % attributes to Crew skills as well

[@grievetan]

can we have Equipment Tier List for artillery?

[@alantyrell41]

Rammer makes little difference if you fired backed up and have to wait out the light bulb and would be loaded in that time anyways. Yeah in a knife fight it might help. But that's usually an uncontrolled circumstance and other things (Spg, another tank, ramming etc) will override it.

[@GabrielOGIG]

Finnaly ur back ;D

[@warock3058]

I think it would have been relevant to do a separated tier list for each tank class. So we don't fall into the trap of ranking a "specified" piece of equipment for light tank amidst ranking equipment for meds and heavies

[@Terrados1337]

The fact that generalized tier lists for equipment in WoT exist is a great indicator as to how bland the equipment system is. "XYZ is generally S tier" so it's baseline. Wow, such choice, much fun. Good video tho!

[@helohel5915]

I say vents is pretty much only usable when you want to improve accuracy, but you don't mind increasing other stuff at the cost of losing accuracy. Basically, when u don't have a firepower slot

[@helohel5915]

So yeah fits in D... but only when in a slot.

[@nativoobstinado3525]

Really important. Thanks.

[@tohkia8840]

chems deserves more tbh wg dont need to ban u they just hate how honest u are in the game

[@dambis77]

Finally another video🙂

[@pmbeavis4467]

Being an average player this was a great help...thanks! I'm also an FTP player so every little bit helps

[@bonehunter9766]

Jo chems, finally a new video! Just wanted to say that I love your videos (and calm voice, wholesome chems). Also fuck KZbin algorithm, the video got recommended now instead of instantly, should turn on the bell tbh.

[@zGJungle]

Hardening is pretty much mandatory for heavies for me now, bond hardening is my most sought after equipment.

[@iqcool]

Config is super good on the IS-4 in my experience, because the ammo rack is right behind the angled cheek armour in the front, which is the easiest place for enemies to pen you when you're trying to brawl or sidescrape (assuming there isn't time to reverse sidescrape).

[@pavelperina7629]

Pretty valid. I sometimes use IRM stacked with vstab. 40% decrease of dispersion on bourrasque is nice. Plus it turns noticeably faster. But bourrasque is weird tank that would benefit from six equipment slots and people argue if it's better to use IA or IRM, optics or vents, ... I think for my playstyle (camping in the middle of the map), target acquisition speed is somewhat important. I despise char futur because of it.

[@zondazerda2230]

What if the flamthrowers replaces the arties instead of HE? I don't think they made them an SPG just for the testing.

[@JimmysLeftSock]

Very interesting. I've got some rearranging to do. Thanks for your efforts.

[@AzureOtsu]

that spall liner had a pretty hard R

[@CharcharoExplorer]

I have a question now that vents works a lot more on crew skills. Would vents go up in tiers if you have a 6-skill crew? Since it will help almostg every skill (slightly)?
