A friend started playing WoT...

He is currently playing Russian tanks and likes Artillery. Anybody have any basic pointers or suggestions for him?

Some people from EQ UK might remember him, he played a Necro called Dumak on Bristlebane, raided with Test of Time and was even along on a few outings with us.

I remember Dumak from the old days, weirdly i cant remember last week but remember all the way back then! lol

I play WoT although not very good at it, but my tip would be to never hide, stay in the starting base, therefore making my life easier to zoom in on my light tank and blow up the Arty ;)

Sorry not much help but i dont play artillary at all, just couldnt get to grips with it :(

Never drive anything with less than 75% crew.
Keep an eye on weekend offers. the +cash, +xp on certain tank lines is invaluable at this stage, along with stuff like cheap garage slots / Camo.

What was your Char name in EQ, Q?

Well, Dumak is a nonpaying player at the moment, but he is happy for any advice, so thank you Chick. :)

I had a few toons;

DE Necro - Qpid Stunt
Dwarf Cleric - Qwackpot Qweric
Iksar Monk - Chop Suey
Bard - Hevy Measures

Was more but cant remember them now - it was a long time ago! I think i was on my cleric when Dumak raided but have a funny feeling we grouped a lot levelling when i was on my bard or Monk with Wu and Gules.

Another tip i only learnt about last week about Crews... get a few tanks of the same nationality and type so in his case, German / Artillary, but only have one crew(preferably for the highest Tier Arty he has)! Swap the crew out between each Artillary piece gaining the x2 bonus, therefore levelling your crew up really fast.

Another thing I only caught onto late is their calendar : http://worldoftanks.eu/en/news/46/July-Calendar-2013/

My plans for the next 2 weeks are to hammer Tier 1 - 4 to elite status (all mods researched) on a few tech tree lines, but NOT buying the T5 tanks, then hopefully the weekend of the 13/14/15th the T5 tanks will be on sale.

If he buys gold, then Garage space is a premium, but its on sale every 6-8 weeks, unfortunatly it was half price only last week so he may have to wait a while now :(
