You forgot to mention that players should actually wait for some WG events, when they can buy consumables for half of the price. So basically food for 10k credits.

[@aitvaras5271]

This applies to bulk purchases. These events are only a few times a year, so you want to have at the very least have a few million credits to spend on small repair/medkits and large fire extinguishers. I personally use small repair kits the most, small medkits a bit less and large fire extinguishers are rarely used in comparison. As an example, if I buy a 1000 small repair kits, I'd buy around 700-800 medkits and maybe 150-200 large fire extinguishers.

[@imnotusingmyrealname4566]

11:54 I think there was a time where the small med kit would only remove the stun on ONE crew member. That way painful, I was so happy to see it now can remove stun from the entire crew.

[@tyabely9691]

Med kit on 4 is also better than on 5 slot because the driver is 4th (so 4+4), he is the most vulnerable crew member (in most tanks) and its usually the one that you need to heal immediatly or you are dead

[@MrRez808]

These are the sort of video sorely needed for world of tanks. Most other CC’s just do tank reviews and epic replays. So, from a tank veteran, thanks 🙏 Also, nice BT-SV flex 😁

[@johnsamson9889]

Hey Max. Thank you for the informative video. The American Lend-Lease act of 1940 supplied allies a great many military items during the war even though the U.S. didn't officially enter the war until 1941. This is the reason for the star on Russian lend-lease oil. I'm not distinguishing Russia from Soviet Union (1922-1991).

[@sabba_dabba8649]

using manual repair kits in 2nd slot on lower tiers is good advice. That and advice on use of manual fire ext until tier 5 or 6 made watching this worth it

[@pmwrench]

Great job 👏 👍 I always ran small fire extinisher but your suggestion was right on.. now large fire extinisher

[@parsembleu]

Basic, but helpfull explanation. Ths would have saved me a lot of credits (and battles) when I just started the game. 👍

[@johnfarscape]

It's the built in bonuses that makes the large repair and first aid kit so good, the amount of times I have had my engine knocked out and just thought my tracks were knocked of so repaired those and got killed is ridiculous, thr bonus repair speed has stopped me being permanently tracked multiple times, I noticed a real difference in crew injuries having the large first aid kit, using all large consumables and food is what keeps my tanks above 60% since rate as it might only help 5 games in a hundred but that's enough to go from 55% to 60% . . I don't think there should be differences or price differences, just one size of kit and oil and everything costs 10k or whatever, the choice should be on how you want to play not what you can afford.

[@imnotusingmyrealname4566]

3:45 Bruuuuuh😂 so that's why I didn't notice anything. Wow could've been -10% fire chance but no just engine fire chance.

[@s4wrs]

Very useful and well explained. Thanks Max

[@danilojasovic4800]

Nice video Max, i just think you could have mentioned at least two more things, not as basics but more like tips. First, people can train firefighting on their crew (as 3rd or 4th skill of course), and then not have to use fire extinguisher, but use something else instead. And also for people who play assault TD's (T110E3, Obj. 268/4), it is a must to use both small and large repair kit for tracks.

[@almedinatarik3370]

Or just use hardening?

[@niallmartin4098]

I think the 100/105 octane is slightly better than the others because it also boosts traverse. Lend lease and quality oil don't.

[@bengraham5699]

nice

[@servusdedurantem]

i use oil the cheap one on arty most of the time because it gets faster and can change location if cant hit from spesific angle i dotn use repair kit on arty because when u need that u already dead sometimes enemy arty targets u so med kit can be good if i have the money specially on discount sales food is very good for arty

[@michaelmichael8147]

Good information, thanks.

As a new players with multiple Tier 6 tanks, apart from the fact that I feel like WoT is trying to make my grind the worst possible as a Free to Play player, I do need to take the manual fire extinguisher, no food, and I do not use gold rounds, for the facts that : - I am not good enough (yet!) so that the 3 gold shots would count in my game - I will never be on equal footing with ennemy tanks, they use gold, have fuild mods, good crew, food, equipment. I am always going to loose in theory. - It is already complicated enough to play with 2 differents amunition, without intuition, to have another one, and it is not even fun to think about that ! I would just go 20 gold or no gold, but no in-between, it is not fun, and not interesting to think about. - And finally : I NEED to stock credit, a ton of credit ; first, just to be able to purchase my next tank that I worked so hard to research and second, I NEED to stock credit to try to buy equipment when it is on sale for my tanks, and it costs sooo much. Anyway those were some of my thoughts, I wonder if WoT would make more money if they were not fighting their consumers (70% of F2P players) and making the game worse for them, but instead helping them. They do not even sell many skins, keeping them all for lootboxes, I do not understand. Thanks for the video !

[@johnfarscape]

I would never recommend a manual fire extinguisher, the chance of fire deduction percentage means your probabley going to save credits in the amount of times you don't need to, combining that with loosing less hit points burning it's well worth it,

[@laurentlachand8102]

Absolutely perfect content your explain so well, you cheer so many simple tips For new player like me your like Bible Thank so mutch

[@SDphilip0525]

I am new to World of Tanks PC version... How can I use the consumables? What button? TIA

[@roilev]

Is the food/fuel used if put in an alternative slot that is not activated in the beginning of the battle?

[@MaxGamingFPS]

Doesn't matter where you put the food/fuel it will be used constantly throughout the battle.

[@roilev]

@@MaxGamingFPS It doesn't make sense to work if in alternative slot - why would people waste a normal slot instead? And no, I tried it and the fuel was not consumed, even if I switched through the alternative slot in the beginning of the battle (but switched back away from it)

[@heymofo1981]

tried to join your clan but got refused but used the advice and joined a random one anyway and the boosters are massive for progression

[@Zenbu711]

Are all consumables, directives are expired after a match and need to buy again?

[@MaxGamingFPS]

Yes if you use them.

[@failp1ayer435]

so that's why so many people put repair kit at second slot,the 55 technique i can't hit the right key very quickly,i just hold ctrl and click track ooga booga

[@tomaszgie509]

Or change the key from 4 to space bar. Then if u want to repair your tracks u just double tap space key. Or buy a good mouse and bind your all keys to that mouse. F.e. my wheel to the left = space, space; to the right = space, 2 (fixing ammorack); mousewheel click = 6 (fire extinguisher) etc. Really, its a good option to quick response on any damage, no need to look at your keyboard and waste sometimes very valuable seconds.

[@failp1ayer435]

@@tomaszgie509 true... maybe I should get a new mouse

[@johnfarscape]

Imo food is far too good, it should be 5% more like taking the vents esuipment, it's too much of an advantage for people that can't afford to run it on everything.

[@galloviking4766]

Not a huge fan of each nation having its own food item. Seems pointless.

[@andrewr7642]

It's so WG can get you to buy more.
