NEW USA YOH HEAVY TECH TREE - World of Tanks

[@keldintetz7205]

So bizzare compared to the YOHS in blitz. Tier 10 is the M6Yoh with a 2 shot 120mm or a 3 shot 105mm autoloader.

The main weakness on Blitz is a fact that the Blitz is runing short on Maps! And the maps are small

21:54 That's an oscillating turret, the cupolas will have the same visibility when face to face as when using the full gun depression .. they will however be hidden when you point your gun up, in which case I'm guessing that egg shaped turret becomes penetrable.

[@zeroyuki92]

I guess you can play it slightly like a Kranvagn and raise your gun a little bit after you are firing, but don't raise it too much so that you expose the belly of the turret too much since there's a strip of armor below the gun that is a weakspot if you raise it too high

[@blumac9801]

Very similar to the Yohs in Blitz

[@captain_context9991]

In early American tank design, they felt any weld was a weakness. So they molded the entire hull in one piece.

[@JakeMac96]

All gameplay effects aside, I think it's really cool that WG take these tanks that never made it off the production line and brings them to life.

[@UchihaSasuke1014]

Wow, nice sight to see, usually WoT players cry about these tanks that never made it out of blueprint stage, I'm all about WG adding more varied tanks who cares if they existed IRL or not

[@ryanqube9132]

note on the tier 9 and 10 yoh tanks, since both of them have oscillating turret, those weak points are also going to be visible when you hull/aiming down.

[@paveantelic7876]

but also completely hidden if you point your gun up :)

[@Milobaby.]

If u point ur gun in the air the bottom of the turret is not a weak point so after u fire stick ur gun up and get bounces for days

[@zeroyuki92]

@@Milobaby. There's a strip right below the gun which is a weak point if you show it to your enemy. Yes, raise the gun a little bit after firing, but don't raise it too much.

[@elianmontero644]

so are the krans, yet they are practically inexistant

[@ES031]

The Yohs in Blitz have autoloaders, and the T10 in particular has the option of a quick double-shot. Much more interesting than what they did in WoT

[@shadow_entity9191]

In WoT Blitz there's actually an M-VII-Yoh which is the tier VII and it has the engine in the back of the turret, thus getting shot in the rear of the turret damages your engine... From tier VIII onwards the Yohs have an autoloader and the tier IX and X are swapped around. The *reserve* track is only available in tier IX and X which only lets you *reverse* at 4 km/h

[@RedXlV]

Makes me wish the M-VII-Y was the Tier 8 premium in WoT PC instead of the M-IV-Y. Just for the bizarre engine in the turret layout.

[@natcuber]

Wow...

[@jacobkleeman8546]

The Yohs at T9 and T10 do have those track supports on WoT Blitz, tracking them with HEAT rounds can be nearly impossible at times.

[@Mystro84]

That top gun on the M-V-Y (the Tier X) makes me think "Yoh" might secretly stand for "Yohvercompensating".

[@jonathanatwork]

The M-V-Y looks like the tank Marvin the Martian would drive.

[@lonemarkkingoftypos3722]

18:06 funnily enough, this thing actually counts as a hit box in Blitz. But theres a catch, its base thickness is 220mm so barely anyone can pen it apart from TDs and premmos. XD Edit: thank you for the correction good sir.

[@DulcetNuance]

The base thickness is 220mm. But yes it is still very troll because they cover parts of the lower plate and are well rounded.

[@Joez310]

Yeah it would be very weird to take away the tank’s tech tree main feature when going up the tier. Yes, I’m talking to you T-34/100 and TVP VTU

[@g.d.graham2446]

A very sad grind that line can be

[@gabrielgraham6877]

Those vehicles suck when grinding, that's for sure

[@natcuber]

3:20 The mantlet of the top turret is 160mm and the area beside the mantlet is about 170-200-ricochet. The stock turret has 140mm of mantlet armor, and the turret cheeks are about 200mm-ricochet. Either way, it has a decent turret-pity it only has 5 degrees of gun depression.

[@SlyMeerkat]

Whenever I'm grinding new Tanks, I always use Free XP to get the top Gun, Turret and Engine so that I can be effective in Battle and grind the rest normally, I use Improved Hardening so that I can mount things without the Tracks, it don't take long to get the XP to research them anyway so sacrificing a useful equipment piece for a few Battles wont hurt and either change it once I have the Tracks or keep the Equipment on that I used in the first place, depending how I feel about the Tank.

[@spaceaggressor9404]

WoT just made a move in the right direction and every move counts. All the best in years to come QuickyBaby.

[@cirlu_bd]

the strange thing of having the 5th higher in the tech tree than the 6th isn't so unusual in WoT. The IS-5 and IS-6 are both tier 8 while the IS-4 is a tier 10. WG doing whatever they want with the tree progression isn't new and imo isn' teven harmful. It's a funny trivia for sure but there are more concerning stuff to worry about in this game and with this new line haha....

[@ArchusKanzaki]

And they probably decide it because of how the game works is different compared to RL. In RL, the 5th is an ergonomical nightmare with the commander so close to the gunner.... but in game that just means 1 less cupola/weakpoint. 6th is definitely improvement with it having more space ergonomically, but it got 2 cupola now instead of just one.

[@ember2933]

25:05 That is the Face of Death, right there. Absolutely terrifying.

[@royv9019]

I've been playing the X tank the entire day. Great tank. Not overpowered, but really fun.

[@muskoxthe]

So looking at that to your 10, it doesn't look like it's going to be as big of a hull down monster as one might assume. The gun does not move independently from the turret so in order to use the depression the turret needs to be pointed down along with the gun. This means that the weak point on the cupola should in theory always be visible. This also means that you cannot block shots with your gun at your weak points. Another big week point when facing this tank on flat ground is the turret ring. I don't think this tank is going to be as big a deal as someone might assume

[@ericandi]

I really like when tanks have multiple competitive guns rather than having tanks where it’s a no brainer to use the top gun because it’s has the best of everything with the highest DPM, alpha, and pen, as well as the best gun handling. I like when tanks have at least 2 competitive guns. The bottom gun might be the worst for every spec. The middle gun might have the highest DPM, with better alpha than the bottom gun, but lower alpha than the top gun, and the best pen and gun handling of all 3 guns. The top gun might have lower DPM, with higher alpha, slightly lower pen, and a little worse gun handling then the middle gun. If you want a DPM set up, accuracy, penetration set up, go with the middle gun and if you want a big alpha set up, with good but not the best DPM, pen, and accuracy, go with the top gun. Of course, the top specs for each gun can be mixed and matched, as long as there are at least 2 guns that are each superior at something and not hugely disadvantages at other specs, relative to the other guns,

[@nickarooroo6397]

Same, with that being said I wish they would buff the French Amx M4 heavy line. Also have a choice of guns but so mediocre.

[@DulcetNuance]

I'm curious to see if its possible to bounce off the bottom half of the turret directly into the top hull deck armor. I honestly cant see how that wouldn't happen for the tier 9 or 10 if you aren't using the gun depression to hide it. I also wonder if people were to shoot the side of the turret on the pivot points if it will damage the turret ring or the gun.

[@PappyGunn]

Kinda grateful there isn't a tier 11, it gets weirder and weirder as tiers go up and the tier 10 already looks alien enough to be in War of the Worlds. The Polack's gun depression is... depressing. Five degrees and you and can feel it letting you down during fights.

[@Nightmare_52]

a giant m103 turret on 2 sticks going down to a complete pancake hull would be the t11

[@BassBiest]

The gun depression should not do you any good on that tier 9 weakpoints. As I understand it, it is the whole turret depressing downwards the oponents so the weakpoints in the back go up and are always visible for the oponents. Maybe you want to add some sideways movement when peaking over the ridgeline in this tank.

[@roybuitink4419]

Yeah i was thinking of that

[@joao4437]

Same as kran, u can just look up after shot. At least on blitz, the turret keeps impenetrable.

[@redgator7250]

@@joao4437 Thats only partly true, When you look up it actually decreases the angling on the turret and gold rounds can butter it.

[@joao4437]

@@redgator7250 as I said, I'm basing my comment on the wotblitz equivalent tank. There when you point up, the turret keeps impenetrable for everyone.

[@joao4437]

Maybe not for High pen TDs, but at least for most of tanks. And then Probably the M V Y will get an armor buff on pc to place tier X

[@evanulven8249]

Its hilarious, really. The M6, the Pawlack, both are heavies that get outdone at their job by the M4E2, a medium tank.

[@Adierit]

actually i'd say the pawlack is about on par with the jumbo, sure it has 12mm less turret armor but you get better speed, pen, and more DPM if you choose to use one of the 75mm's

[@jasiof2622]

24:06: they say: the length of barrel doesn't matter (as long it is not a short one) - the caliber is much more important - it gives much more satisfaction ;-P

That's what tanks with a short barrel say.

[@luigi.weegee3290]

[@lason999]

QB, I don't think you'll be able to hide your cupolas with your gun depression (especially on tier IX). Mind that, the gun seems to be moving with the whole turret rather than itself with just a mantlet...

[@smnkm4ehfer]

You just lift your gun slightly

[@lason999]

@@smnkm4ehfer Sure you can cover it with a gun when you don't shoot. I am talking about the situation when in other tanks you depress your gun by 10dg and the enemy can't see your cupolas at all looking at you. Here it's impossible since when you depress the gun, the cupolas go together with it.

[@joshuadempsey5281]

QB, the gun depression doenst hide the cupolas, the entire turret oscillates like a T57 or AMX13

I would say a very clever move from Wargaming. First you spend most of your free XP into the ' under the hammer event ' and afterwoods they come with a new line so you can start to grind a again lots of XP...

[@lonnieholcomb2078]

The American/British gun should read as the M68A1 105mm cannon, a British designed cannon we used them on the M60 series and later M48 marks ala M48a5

[@Legiondude]

In the American system, the RO L7/M68 gun was prototyped as 105mm T254, which is the middle gun on the Tier 9 Yoh The "120mm American-British gun" is probably a WG reference to some joint development that spawned the 120mm M58 and the 120mm L1 tank guns without actually giving the player access to that higher level penetration

[@johnfarscape]

I think the tier 8 is easily the best tank in the whole tree, the armour is great, the gun handling is amazing as is the dpm and the pen is so good especially on the gold ammo you can even handle tier 10 superheavies. . Absolutely love it. Keeping it even though I have the tier 9 now.

[@legionthunder7991]

The funny thing is that the Yoh tanks aren't even heavy tanks. They were classified as MEDIUM tanks. That's what their designations stand for. M for Medium Tank, then the number was the design number used, then Y for Yoh Company.

[@johnfarscape]

They should add the ability to move with a destroyed track to a lot of the BT series of tanks and some others that were designed to be able to drive on their rubber edged wheels without their tracks attached. .

[@metalmyron]

Thanks for in info QB, I rhink I'll steer clear of this heavy line

Seems like qb is a big fan is skipping tracks if you don't need them for other parts but I think tracks are actually quite important. They improve gun handling while moving, ground resistance and traverse speed which will give you a way more enjoyable time playing these tanks.

[@christopherfink5144]

I dont know if the did it in pc but in blitz, the M-III-Yoh has the engine in the turret. So you can receive engine damage by getting hit in the turret

[@fulmetalmage]

Seems to me that the whole turret moves down on the tier 9 so even if you are using your gun depression the weak points will be exposed. You would have to move the turret up after every shot.

[@sergeantreapor]

[@h0griph]

One of the few lines that were first implemented into blitz before implemented into wot

[@Phootaba]

You said these might be hull down monsters but I think that's not the case. The 10degree depression is the whole turret (consider the pivots), so the potential weak-spots are always going to be exposed!

[@locksand45]

I think they should release a tank that is impenetrable and only takes 10 points of damage per hit (it has 5000 hp) and every 50 points of damage it takes produces a nuclear strike that totally destroys anything and everything at a random 100 meter radius on the map. Also, this tank can shoot 10 rounds per second that 1 hit kills ANY other tank...BUT it can't move or turn or aim. However, every time it is hit it moves the tank a bit, shifting where it is aimed. I'd love to watch that match, just to see how it would evolve and see how the enemy team would proceed

[@MrMikihol]

Additional hull down monster, we have enough of them in the game already

[@RDMGAMER]

It’s not a hull down if you play it that way let me know I’d like to farm you.

[@16killjoy99]

i question the X's armor because the turret supports are only 260mm thick. Heat will eat right through it without a problem. You can't hide the weak spot on top because the whole turret moves with the gun, so if you're using -10 of depression and you aim up to hide the coupla then enemies are just going to slam the underside of the turret. Along with that button looking thing under the turret it looks like that how it connects to the hull to rotate, its probably a massive weak spot. If you aim down to hide it then you expose the coupla. I think this thing is going to be frustrating to play...

[@generaldong-dong5635]

the 120mm gun is for slugging it out. 105mm is meant for range

Seeing how this was 'dumped' into the game so suddenly, makes me think. They've been on Blitz already I believe for over 7 months or even longer? And now all of a sudden thrown into the PC game.
