When you boost DPM to the MAX with best equipment, you will get 4019 with APCR/HEAT and 4,946 with HESH... Quite nuts, because with this gun handling, you might actually be able to put that into action! :) What do you think about it? Still needs a turret buff?

[@lazygamez7280]

I would say to remove the buffs from test server and make the turret good and not like a tier 8 medium

[@jankarolak3666]

I always liked cent but at the same time it needed a buff, turret armor would be ideal, but with this buffs it would be just to much. Right now Cent will be just good tank like udes, stb etc

[@ktomasz8134]

Take some of DPM and give it more turret armor, so it will have 3800 maxed DPM and good turret

[@AbsSolut]

Dunno,., but think i will gonna pick this classic up again

[@Vinniee20]

Turret more important than DPM.

7/1 is still one of my favs. Actually having different amo types that are viable make the game much more interesting.

What are you running for equipment?

[@jaspervanhoudt2675]

@@SovietPanda91 when I marked it I ran vents, rammers and stabs. After that I switched to turbo, vents and rammer.

[@juanjodpr]

I haven't touched my AX in almost 3 years. 29% dispersion buff is HUGE. This thing will be able to snapshot now. The turret is still garbage but there's no reason to choose the Patton over this tank now with these changes. The DPM buff will also make this tank very competitive.

[@mrkts4811]

This tank gets ammorack instantly but with this buff maybe the vert stab can be replaced to improved configuration. My fear is that again that overbuff and when people start to grind then WG will nerf it as usually they do.

[@tohkia8840]

And yet they still continue to nerf amx 65t bcoz its OVERPERFORMING Kappa

[@tajj7]

I don't think we need more hull down monsters, unlikely it will be a super meta tank but it'll be much nicer to play. Also the gun handling buffs at least allow it to not use v-stab which opens up options for like vents or optics or hardening etc. Really a lot of the strong armoured stuff on tier 10, 279e, Chieftain, VZ, Bobject etc. needs toning down and then most of the meds would have an easier time competing as most of them are really out of the meta.

[@existentialcrisis2376]

They keep stacking up the dpm, and it keeps going higher and higher, especially with all this equipment that is being released. I swear the next medium that "needs" a dpm buff will get an even higher dpm, with the proper equipment of course. I miss old wot so much.

[@danygeo7365]

M48 patton needs a buff in my opinion and many other tech tree tanks and premium one need nerfs not all cuz they are premium but some of them tier 8 are more powerful that tier X xD

[@lethuliv5500]

I think the problem with buffing Cent AX is that you can buff it as much as you want. It is still a medium. Dont forget that this is World of heavy tanks and we can not have mediums contesting the heavies. We now have heavies with impenetrable turrets reach key positions faster than most mediums. The heavies now days can also match the DPM and usually outclasses the mediums in alpha. Every small patch includes small buffs to heavies, experimental equipment for example is something heavies will benefit most from. Moveable objects is something hulldown heavies will benefit most from. The argument that 430U is one of the better mediums because it gives your team an extra heavy is a perfect exampke of the problem. Mediums needs to get its own niche in the game back rather than beeing a shit heavy at tX, maps need to be built around being able to flank. Heavy mobility over the board needs to be removed and access to Turbo also removed.

[@juanjodpr]

Mediums should never have the crazy penetration they have. It's stupid they have 330-350 pen to butcher frontally even the most heavily armored tank. They should be at most at the level of the TVP with 310 with HEAT and 248-252 with standard and then have mediums with more mobility, the are support class vehicles, not brawlers. Light tanks fit well in this system having the lowest pen of the classes.

[@stevewebster5729]

About time. The Action X should be a ridgeline warrior, but they made it into cannon-fodder...

[@votesus9819]

YES! these were my first lines I wanted to grind and now I can enjoy it

[@cile_youtube]

You remember, maybe, AMX M4, after BUFS we had BIG NERFS... So, the SAME will be with AX. We are not NAIVE, DIRTY WG.

[@stephendverner]

Looking forward to playing this vehicle again.

[@LaWraWaN]

I allways liked the cent and patton. I put equipment on them in such a way to basicly make them the same tank. :D

[@arandomperson7591]

WG when buffing any tank 1. Improve DPM 2. Improve dispersion

[@theBhavMan]

I mean, yeah, they arr good buffs no? Better than buffing the turret imo, buffing the gun makes it just a lot more fun and skillful

[@arandomperson7591]

@@theBhavMan buffs are good, but I just wished they did something different to each tank make it a bit more unique

[@juanjodpr]

They did it to the Leopard 1. It had bad handling, trash armor and bad hidden stats. The improved the hidden stats and made the alpha 30 points higher. The armor is still trash but it snipes like a boss. That's what it means buffing the sigma of a tank, make it better and any tank will shine.

[@lethuliv5500]

Where will this leave the Patton? It now will get the same gun handling with better final dispersion, better mobility and better dpm. Patton arguably have better armor. I guess it will be buffed next.

[@Mr39hope]

FINALLY!!!! ok time to come back, this tank always felt like a step back from the TIX , glad its finally getting some love

[@j.n.572]

The problem with the AX is not its mobility or firepower, those were both fine. I didn't have an issue with its turret either. The problem with the AX is the paper modules. It's like playing a tank with only 450 hp at tier 10. You cannot use your HP because you risk ammo racks and/or fire any time you take a hit.

[@lethuliv5500]

Since you get vert stab for free now maybe you could try the expermimental hardening or modified configuration

[@lordlobster3439]

About time, the grind to this thing was hell and it was a let down, it’s about time they show it love

[@TehButterflyEffect]

Absolute hell. The Centurion is the worst tier 8 tank in the game. One of the worst tanks in the game period.

[@lordlobster3439]

@@TehButterflyEffect the whole line is a joke honestly, the only decent tank is the Cent 7/1, good gun and decent HESH rounds, idk why the Action X HESH rounds have such low pen. Needs to be doubled

[@carrymesenpai3276]

4:00 bro ended up on a casting couch Xd

[@I_Am_Just_A_Technician]

Finally the AXE is getting sharpened! I wouldn't be opposed to buffing the turret. Remove those weaknesses on the cheeks of the turret front. Leave the weak spot under the gun and commanders hatch. That way skilled players have something to aim for when battling it hull down. I honestly never had an issue with the old gun. I played the Patton for gun handling and the AX for long range accuracy. But the buff is welcome. Still very angry about Progetto 😡

[@venataciamoon2789]

My friend bought this tank when it came out. He told me to stay away from it so I did. I've got better tier X tanks to waste my credits on first. And none of these nerfs over the years make any sense since there are soo many OP premium and clan tanks around.

[@dannyspindler2305]

I am happy about the buff of CentAX... The FV4202 was my first tier 10 medium. And also the buff for the 7/1 is very right for me :)

[@ronaldg7522]

They are balancing with the sledghammer again

[@jariheimoluoto4959]

I would prefer only the mobility and gunhandling buffs. It will reward skill and still give other tanks fighting chance. Many of the weak points are not so much of a problem with enough mobility. Like some of the absolute paper tanks get away with it because of the mobility and gunhandling

[@dirtysilver2841]

The action X needed some turret improvements. The tank was designed to be a meta, but because it is an "arcade" it has to have 5 weaknesses and 1 strong point. Which just makes the game a fight for balance, and that balance is no where to be seen.

[@Rio_45]

It's a Good News for me after I heard they buffed this tank alongside 7/1... It's one of my favourite Tier X Tank alongside 121B. The armor is quite unreliable yes (I usually think It's an oversized Crom), but that gun is really good if the RNG treats me just about right so the gun buff will make it less derpy and more fun to snapshot. Though one thing that I really want it to get buffed is the module, especially the Engine and Ammo Rack. cuz I feel like they broke a lot every time I got shot.

[@kacadlliac]

[@c72367]

"The sides of the turret at 258 are very weak" describes the current meta with gold spam to the point.

the turret gets spammed with gold rounds and penned every time I thought the cent ax would be a better m48 after the patch, but the turret is a massive liability

[@Haris-V]

🤣 the thumbnail will make Shaq Proud 😎

[@PajserSR]

Tbh, they could give it HEAT protection on the turret like the S. Conq has. But it would not give it any protection against other rounds like Prem AP or APCR which would still go through it like nothing. That would make Cent unique among the mediums as a tank that has good protection against HEAT but Meh protection against AP and APCR.

[@Mojrzeszg]

Screens like the ones Caernarvon AX has?

[@PajserSR]

@@Mojrzeszg It's still the same screen, being on the Conq or Caer AX doesn't really matter cause the same job is done. But yeah, and because Cent doesn't have good base armor on the turret, adding screens wouldn't do much except make it better against HEAT.

Funny thing is this tank was buffed a few times before and it's still not enough. FV4202 was buffed like 3 times and it was still garbage. It was so bad that it was sent to tier 8 as premium and not it's just average. Iron Arnie literally does the same but with way better alpha and armor.

Most likely today/tomorrow is happening. Scared now if the tank becomes too popular, WG gave the excuse of the nerf to the Progetto based on 'popularity' and not in any gameplay parameter whatsoever.

[@Prosper_NA]

"good players are going to enjoy..." is typically a sentence that states that the tank is actually fun and playable. Nobody wants something with no armor, dpm, or gun handling like the 30b or the old centurion. Same goes for Kpz 07 rh and Shptk tvp. They aren't broken, but they are fun and good players can take advantage of the tools given. I think the nerfs to the AMX Mle 54 are unnecessary as it finally competes with tanks like the chieftain in all formats, but now they they're rebalancing it to be useless again, it's one less useful tank anyone will be playing in competitive.

I haven't played in about a month. They are ruining tanks I like to play and keep releasing more OP premiums. I ground the Centurion line a couple of years ago because I saw someone do really well in an AX and he recommended it. It was an absolutely GARBAGE grind. The Centurion is the WORST tier 8 tank in the game, hands down. The 7/1 isn't any better until you unlock the top gun, but it's behind a 250,000XP grind. 250,000XP. That's insane. I finally free-xped the gun and it turned into a decent tank after that, but still not really mobile enough to be relevant. So I never bothered to buy the AX. Probably never will.

[@FleetAdmiralVildstar]

[@whazzup_teacup]

For me centAX before was meh. I think if WG is going to make centAX a dpm monster then I think they could do some minmaxing by lowering the top speed from 53 to 50 or even 45. I think it's ok to have decent but not completely reliable armor. This would also make it a bit more different from other tanks. WG has had a problem of similarity for a long time. "Why play tank x when there's tank y" which they've been fixing with new mechanics but how about the regular MTs? Differentiating for example patton, centAX and 30B further is the right way.
