Tactics!
Welcome to your bootcamp! These are considered basic combat tactics in World of Tanks that every player should know and use. It applies to all types of vehicles from tanks, to tank destroyers and SPG.
Use these fighting tactics and you will excel above the majority of players.
Make Use of Cover
Buildings, rocks, cliffs and dead tank hulks abound in World of Tanks. Make use of them while sniping at the enemy. Hiding behind obstacles reduces your tank profile, making it more difficult for the enemy to spot you, provides protection from enemy fire, and makes you more difficult to target. When using buildings for cover, move forward, shoot. Then retreat behind the building to reload.
Basic Cover Tactics
Make use of rocks, buildings and natural terrain for cover.
Hide behind rocks and tank hulks where possible to make you more difficult to target.
Take cover behind buildings.
Move forward, shoot, then retreat behind the building to reload!!!
Buildings provide excellent protection from enemy SPG.
Make Use of Natural Terrain, Hills and Slopes
You have an advantage on higher ground. As the enemy climbs the slope, he is slowed by an uphill climb. And you can take a shot at his turret before he can depress his gun low enough to hit you. After taking a shot, back away to force him to make a further climb, while you reload your gun. Never go down the hill unless you are sure of the kill.
Let the enemy climb up the hill. You get the first shot!!!
Hug the edges of cliffs for protection and also prevents artillery from hitting you!!!
When on high ground, pop over, take a shot, then retreat.
Stop, Fire, Move. Stop, Fire, Move.
Especially on open ground, never standstill and shoot continuously. You not only become an easy target for snipers, but especially for artillery. Artillery loves stationary targets. Even moving a little backwards or forwards between shots is better than not moving at all!!!
The best strategy to use on open ground is to Stop → Fire → Move. Stop → Fire → Move. Rinse and repeat...
Never standstill continuously fire on open ground.
Press spacebar to quickly stop your tank!!!
Track Your Enemy
Tracking your enemy many times have far greater advantage than directly hitting his armor. A tracked opponent is a sitting duck, and it allows your teammates to get off a shot. It also allows artillery to hit a stationary target. It has far greater benefits than you getting off a single shot, because a tracked opponent allows many shots to be delivered to the target. A tracked opponent in open ground is a dead opponent.
To track a vehicle, shoot the tracks or the drive wheel or rear wheel. Hitting the road wheels won't track it.
Aim at the shaded area!!!
Track your enemy if he pops out from a building!!!
Aim at the drive wheel (front wheel).
Attack Formation.
When attacking, let your heavies lead the attack. Mediums can hide behind your heavies and use them as cover as they have better armor protection. Just be careful about their movements. If they back up, make sure you don't block their path.
Manual Aim vs Auto Aim.
As the tip says, Experienced tankers use Manual Aim. That is so true.
Auto aim has a few drawbacks :-
it targets the center of the tank, which may not be the best spot to aim. You may want to aim for the tracks, the turret, or hull - it depends.
it does not aim ahead, so if you're shooting at a moving target, it will surely miss.
Auto aim is useful only during very short distance fight, such as when you're circling your enemy and too distracted to manually aim.
At all other times, use Manual aim. It gives you maximum accuracy on where your shell lands.
Finally, I'd like to leave you with this phrase to ponder upon - "If you're in a Fair Fight, then You've Failed to Plan. Use these combat tactics for World of Tanks and fight to your advantage.
-Happy hunting.
