@@flyingbutter7612 That is not enough, because sometimes the enemy gets 3 and you get 1. Or they get 2 and you get nothing.

@@Ernn321 actually the inverse is the truth i've played since beta and have been through the ups and downs of the entire game's life the more premiums that caused issues and the more drama that ensued drove off more players than it kept these constant additions of the next "Op premium tank" are what started ands will continue to kill the game the company is making money sure but the game has gone drastically down hill and has lost more players than it will ever regain. Free to play "Freemium" game or no, when the whales dont have anything or anyone to play their purchases against even they too shall leave. WoT has been in a death spiral that will continue to shed more and more long term players because there is only so much of this wallet first mentality one can take before dropping it like a bad habit and just never look back.

@@nogibertv4824 god damn with that luck if you played enough battles that day you mighta had a 10k game with just HE in the tank... @Fullmetal_Brotherhood The gun handling is hit or miss... W/O Vstab or IA or IRM you have shit dispersion and have to wait to aim down tragically to only hit half the shots. With those equipment at standard level and no gold I easily hit the first mark, and can connect my shots 90% of the time - but running bond vtsab+ia with bounty vents and full gold you make yourself look like a professional if you thought their 3k games were epic. Players generally struggle to realise that once they have gold ammo, food, good equip etc on the borrat its actually not incredibly hard to rack up dmg. But the big thing with this tank is the dispersion and horrible stabilisation.

[@realmitch]

Bourrasque is super fun (and also feels very unfair) when you can play in a platoon of 3. I am ashamed to admit my friends and I turn to this when we're having a rough night

[@MW-te5fv]

Mutz mentioned: I call mine "borat hunter". See a borat, press "3", make it bleed with my HE.

[@faktantarkistaja1347]

10:36 Well, gun traverse dispersion is relative to turret rotation speed. So if you increase the rotation speed by the same amount that you reduce the dispersion, that's effectively +/-0. Of course it still helps because you can acquire the target faster, (or if you don't turn the turret at full speed), but still that's something to keep in mind.

[@durachoks]

I have been thinking about this, what about tanks with big dispersion and small traverse, like E4, I mean bonus for dispersion is also big, and bonus in traverse is small, so shouldnt we get improved gun handling? because travers gets barely improved but gun dispersion gets massive improvements?

[@argh1989]

Equipment is genrerally no trade-off like the field modifications. Equipment pieces offer buffs, so I don't think the increased dispersion that would come with increased turret rotation/gun traverse isn't accounted for. Are you sure the Improved Rotation Device does *not* compensate for dispersion?

[@really7187]

This is how exactly it was explained in some other video. Assuming they and you are both correct a rotation device doesn't seem to improve the bloom when sitting still. It only compensates for the bigger bloom due to the increased rotation speed. As I understood an aiming device will actual help reduce bloom, because the bloom is calculated from the max dispersion value. Since the aiming unit make the max dispersion smaller the max bloom will also be smaller.

[@hohuynhquocchuong4925]

If you auto-aiming or micro movement, the rotation speed stay the same, give advantage.

[@faktantarkistaja1347]

@@argh1989 But it's not a trade-off, it does fully compensate it. Rotation mechanism basically just gives you extra rotation speed (like the name implies) without making the dispersion worse. So it's not a trade off.

[@Balc0ra]

Remember when the E25 became too popular? They pulled that one out really fast. However since then each server can decide what they can or can't sell vs just the main office. So it was fast back in action after that change... But still.

[@lemonemmi]

This is a good moment to reflect on things. Bourrasque, one of the most broken tanks in a pvp multiplayer game, has made 15 million by a guesstimation. Ayaka, a waifu character in Genshin Impact, basically a single player game with a co-op possibility, has made 35 million in a single rerun round of sales. And that's only counting Apple in China, leaving out PC, PS and most importantly Android, AND THE REST OF THE WORLD.

[@ivansukara1223]

5:00 whit exelent gunhandling? What did you just said!? My bourrasque whit shooting equipment and fully aimed gun can’t hit litteraly anything like its just a scout but clasified as a medium tank..

[@MarkoMakela-kk7qf]

Hi QB. This tank was if don't be mistaken some sort of rerward for short campain and as I got it, I had send gold to my best friend, who don't have as much time to grind anything. This tank has no armor what so ever, but it is a nasty opponent as it after firing in two seconds more that 700 damage vanishes in to horizon:). One of those tasnk that is strong in the beginning of the game and all betwen to the end gamew, where it can be wery brutal to others. To me it is the best T8 premium with large margin.

[@Blitz-dt2mt]

it was a mission marathon tank firstly so numbers are off a bit

[@xxtrengt8871]

QB saying the bourasque has great gun handling... bro i feel like this is the only weakness of the tank (with the pen)

[@bryanb6931]

Even with the stab, shots while moving almost never go where you want them to.

[@Leoone_1029]

I kinda regret buying it instantly the first time it came out as a reward. Should’ve grind the tiers first before buying it discounted. But as it turns out, it’s an awesome assassin of a tank.

[@doustypants]

Bourrasque is my go to every day. When short on time I can finish all the daily missions at least. This tank can snipe, sneak, or cause chaos. Interestingly a bit of worse equipment on my Miel and it feels like garbage. Full scout build can compete with any enemy scout but gun handling really suffers. Fully invest your best equipment

got mine from christmas boxes, such an amazing tank for light/medium enjoyers

[@physixger]

Let me be honest: I (average-good 2150 WN8 player with 25k games) have at times bought premium tanks just based on reviews just to have the option and to have the most competitive vehicle in any case - especially considering some vehicles don't get sold for a long time. And some of these just sit around in garage without having played them, waiting for someday to be picked up (especially as I tend by far not to play as much these days as I did when I was a 20-year-old uni student). One example is the Grom. Reviewers, QB included, said it's one of the more competitive TDs, but very straightforward and boring. So, naturally I got it with a bit of a mission marathon discount, never played it to this day. With the Bourrasque on the other hand I can't imagine someone buying and never playing it as it's just so flexible.

[@Belsnikel]

I bought it a couple of weeks ago and absolutely love it!

[@OrdinaryWorld]

I use experimental equipment on my Bourrasque. As for goto tier 8 premium, it's probably the Progetto 46, although I stay away from tier 8 whenever possible. At tier 9, it used to be the Char Futur but I prefer many of the tech tree mediums. I have finally started playing the Tiger-Maus as I've invested in the German heavies of late.

I got my tank 90% off in the mission marathon just before it ended. However, WG needs to lighten up on the time required to complete the marathons. 50K+ Base XP is ludacris long to grind. out of all them games I had only one great game in my E4 in the tier 10 match

[@hoangquancao5330]

My Bourras are the reward of my 10 no-life days streak with some pinch of luck here and there

[@jariheimoluoto4959]

The best light tank in the game. I prefer to use aiming unit on burrasque, because the dispersion values are already very good and its the raw accurasy that is poor. Burrasque boosts the winrates because it is an extra light tank in matches with no light or only few light tanks. For example imagine raupanzer getting matched against burrasques on prokurovka.

[@MotteMottkovicVonMottic]

I have the Bourasque - I have a Winratio of 35% with it. That´s because I just rush and die - and I like it that way. I play this tank one or two times a month.

[@FunkyVader]

The experimental turbo is perhaps even better than the rotational device.

[@phoebex811]

bourr doesn't need turbo. Its specific power is 22, gaining 4kph top speed isn't as good as 12.5% less dispersion and 12.5% of both kinds of traverse speed (the bourr's base tank traverse speed is kinda slow) Having both Stabs, as well as IRM, makes the second shot in your clip way more reliable when you are there trying to fully aim in a rush
