So the 5 star tank on rotation is now the GW Tiger. It looks for the most part like an inferior S-51. It trades a significantly reduced blast radius for a slightly higher accuracy and rate of fire, which seems a poor trade when considering that it's active skill is a single increased damage shell that makes use of the former but not the later. Is that assessment fair?
Zoya is best arty and OP because of her AoE, still i think i'm gonna grab that GW. I saved about 12k BPs, I already have panzerwaifu from event and T-92 from login, but i don't have nuker; even if i had Zoya i'd most likely take GW, they make good combo with atk buff.
Edit: pumped and ready to go

Fuck.... siiigh. So we finally get an Artillery 5* and just to spite me, I dont have enough blueprints. God damnt..
Niiice emblems. The panzerwerfer isn't a nuker? Well, fair if you want her. I'm going to pass on this one. Her regular damage output just isn't up to a five star five gear standard. I'd rather deploy my M8 and a Satan even if that usually means I have to eat their repair costs. I don't have a T-92 so I'll hang onto my meager blueprint reserves for now. Or a Zoya. Or any of the high test destroyers.
You know what would make for a cool unique Arty? Replace the HE shell passive with multi-turret. That would shift it from a 'gouging out enemy back field with splash damage' to a wide area fire support role.
Any word from the devs on which, if any, of the x-mas tanks don't have H-Scenes?
So there we go. Xmass event.
What you´ll notice is that the first mission already starts at lvl 45 if you are L50 commander.
This is Halloween all over again, sigh.
Don't know about the H-scenes, but I did the obligatory math. One full run of the map each day gets you 32 ornaments/candy canes. If you can clear the map every day for 21 days and collect 672 of each, (seems a lot more doable this event even though at level 49 I'm at nearly the greatest possible commander level gap) you'll require a total of 46,800 jingle bells to finish out both bags at 225K. This works out to 2229 jingle bells per day. If you can't get that many (or can't completely clear the event map) and plan on finishing out both bags, prepare to spend cores in the exchange shop for Holiday Spirit gifts to supplement your event runs. I got 2874 jingle bells just from doing my six invasion tiles, so I'm pretty sure I'll be able to clear the event without spending any cores...unless tile 8 is way freaking harder than tile 7 and I'll end up 84 each of canes/ornaments short (I lost 8 of my tanks on the cane path tile 7, so it'll be a few hours before I can try it out).
If you can finish tile 7 but not tile 8, you'll need a total of 4629 jingle bells per day to make up for the missing 168 items from both paths. Probably not too big of a deal if you have your scouts out for oil.
As for the exchange...according to the wiki, which may not be completely accurate, Katyusha is also available for research (and we already have Minnie, who is a little bit better at the same thing). The wiki says PT-76 Eliza is only available in events (and in my opinion looks hotter). If you're of a mind to spend 2K cores to buy just one of the exchange tanks, my thoughts are to go for PT-76. There's a total of 180 cores in the bags, so if like me you're a bit short to purchase one, that and some invasion tiles could help make up the difference.
