I think they should remove apcr as a standard shell. Everybody knows that apcr has worse shell normalization and it is noticable as a standard shell and i think it gives you a disadvantage
Playing T49 with it's HEAT shells is hell on earth. I once was able to fire from 50 meters away at the side armor of an afk E75, in an encounter battle. 3 of my shots went into the track doing nothing.
i think that: AP is normal APCR is like AP but more pen, usually the fastest shell HEAT usually have the most pen, but the slowest and gets annihilated by the slightest touch of screen armor(and objects) HE has biggest damage, but lowest pen and gets annihilated like HEAT but still could deal damage
Excuse me, could I interest you in some HESH?!? Edit: on a separate note, HESH is only ever-so-slightly less likely to penetrate than your normal AP rounds, but will always deal more damage on pen. Crazy rounds in the Charioteer.
@@robocopvsterminator4594APCR is for angles and tanks that have angles on them heat is for flat targets like E-100s but you have enough APCR pen like the 372 ish on the WT Ritter it’s better HEAT shell speed is shocking and APCR hit commander’s hatches better than heat
My opinion is AP is best to deliver damage... Or simply blind the enemy using Leopard machine gun tank, that's for sure... AP puts higher alpha damage than premium shells(HESH not included), but sometimes RNG can fuck with you whether you asked for it or not... HE is only good if you have a Paper enemy like FV4005 or Grille 15... But sometimes it only broke the gun if RNG fucks with you again... HESH is only good if you got the opportunity...
i would go ap, hesh, apcr as my top 3. btw, apcr>heat always because of normalization and space armor pen. (i am biased due to being hori and t110e3 main)
Cool video, however you have made a mistake. HEAT shells do have a possibility to ricochet but only at >85 degrees! Please do not misinform people and do your research (or more of it)
@csanadpaksa Normal HEAT doesn't, I am stating that the ATGM you mention has the same characteristics as a HEAT shell, expect you can control its movement 'till it automatically explode after a set amount of time
I usualy battle in the KV-2 and He does by far the most dmg per shot. even if its yellow i can do a decent amount of dmg, and my max dmg per HE shell is 1200.
Good video. I liked watching this. I'm curious, can HEAT pen sheridan's spaced? because they're basically flat sheets of metal welded on the tank. Or does the distance between the armor and the spaced armor not matter?
Depends on the pen value of the heat I’m not sure it has to be 3xs the thickness of the armour so if the tank has 20mm spaced it will have to be above 60mm of penn plus the pen you’d need to pen the tank to but you can HE a sheri turret
Due to testing you forgot to mention wg trash normalization methods of allowing AP shells to shave away 40mm of effective armor on sloped examples so basically meaning tanks with 290 sloped have lesser armor and have around 250 sloped effective armor
@@FaithlupTheNoble Being colour blind is not funny. I can see separate colours clearly but when they are mashed together like that it all looks the same to me.
If you are a skilled player, you don't need armor highlights, because you know exactly how thick or thin the armor is for your HE to do its job. If you can't pen a tank with low hp, just splash HE dmg. If you want to stop the cap but can't spot the tank, use HE splash dmg. Tips: American tanks always have HE'able rear. So does French tanks.
@@semperfidelis2967 That's exactly what I do now. With my 50 year old brain I have had to write down the armour thickness on sides rear etc so I know if I can penetrate with HE.
You use renewable equipment on your tanks, such as food or such. You pay for that each game. You also pay for use of premium ammo and repairs of your tank
Their premium ammo not mentioned. It has LESS penetration than the normal AP but does more damage. Useful for thin skinned light tanks or TD's. Eg great way of killing a Hellcat. Same gun and ammo also found at tier 7 on SU130 and Tankenstein.
This is a worthwhile topic, but really should discuss spaced armor, and it’s effects on each ammo type. As such, switching ammo often means aiming for a different spot on your target.
Its really all dependent on Wargaming. I’ve played enough- have proof that all the metrics about shells is false. Honestly. Pay attention to what your shells exactly do and what the enemy shells do. Imo
@@GatoMexicano_MX Agreed:). At least heat still has an advantage over apcr: It gets %10 increase in pen after the calibrated shells upgrade rather than %5 for apcr.
Works same as HESH. About only difference is HESH only found on some British tanks eg Charioteer, and HEP only on German tanks. Specifically tier 8 RU251 and M41D "Cruel twist". With the Brits HESH is a premium ammo option and costs to use. With the Germans though it replaces HE. I run both of mine with ammo split equally between AP, Prammo and HEP.
Sweatch man! I resently joined wot blitz. I started watching your video to become pro. And your videos are very use full for that i have subscribed your channel thanks for your advices😇😇❤️❤️. I am from india
What is your favorite shell type in the game?
I was playing 183, and I got satisfied doing 1500+ damage with HE on the rear of enemy mts.
ap
Of course Ap, Hesh, and Apcr
standard ap
Heat
Premium AP but the one where it increases your dmg but decreases your avg pen
Do you mean AP+ plus? That premiun shells that Japanese tanks use?
Nah AP on SU-100Y
No most premium AP doesn’t do that
ISU-130 Exists
Basically like a hesh?
ISU 130 has special Premium ap shells that improve damage slightly while reducing pen slightly as well
I just started playing this game and thanks for the info

2:25 “never ricochet” doesnt mean it can pen at high angles. (Its actually trash for angled armor due lack of shell normalization.)
That's why calibrated shells gives 10% extra pen for he and heat rather than the 5% on ap and apcr
In WoT, HEAT shells actually ricochet, but it requires an extreme angle of 85° or more
Now 13 %@@Sandvichgaming738

Yeah I agree, just look how WG ruined 60tp, now it has shit penetration!
In plus 60TP is very easy to ammorack it which makes it even worse
Hesh is not HE. Squash head rounds penetrate the armour, and when the whole round gets destroyed, that's when the explosives explode
i love your videos keep going you will hit 20k soon!😁
World of tanks channel already explained but good job sweatchman
HE is good for low armor tanks like the Grille 15 line
i like the veritasium throwback in the preview

Wotb Joe's most iconic line in a British HESH tank.
Heat is the best ammo i think don mad at me but heat is hard to bounce and doesn't decrease pen when in long range
I agree, I just don't get why most of players likes APCR more than HEAT, especially when it's used as main ammo, APCR as standard shells sucks.
Well in my experience, when heat shells hit a track it won't pen the main hull (experience many times in T49)
Bro heat is better on td not normal tank because td doesn't need to hit specific area td just need to shot from long range
Ahh, I didn't know that, haven't used prammo on a td for a very long time now

the frankenstiens premium ap (bigger gun) gives more damage = less pen
i would go ap, hesh, apcr as my top 3. btw, apcr>heat always because of normalization and space armor pen. (i am biased due to being hori and t110e3 main)
he is great on TD's (tank destroyers) especialy the back of their armor
idk how it is on X tier IX or VIII tier im still on VI VII tier
Tier x tanks HE is good for tds
Thanks for the help
In War Thunder, if you use HE in lightly armored tanks
There is a chance that you might kill 2 or more tanks with a single shell
Cool video, however you have made a mistake.
HEAT shells do have a possibility to ricochet but only at >85 degrees!
Please do not misinform people and do your research (or more of it)
The game itself says heat shells never redirect
The 85° angle applies in the other WoT, in Blitz, they'll NEVER ricochet
No way they changed it wtf
Wait! How could you forget about ATGMs?! I think it is the best one! High pen without losing any over distance.
They perform the same as a HEAT shell
@@Lada-cq2lr Can heat change direction??
@csanadpaksa Normal HEAT doesn't, I am stating that the ATGM you mention has the same characteristics as a HEAT shell, expect you can control its movement 'till it automatically explode after a set amount of time

I usualy battle in the KV-2 and He does by far the most dmg per shot. even if its yellow i can do a decent amount of dmg, and my max dmg per HE shell is 1200.
The different shells are made for different situations. It doesn't make sense to rank them.

Bro forgot about the tankenstein
Sweatchman you forgot the AP gold version on KV-2. But thx I know how to use kv-2 better
Bro , i saw another type of shells used by players , i saw in RUclips shorts , red color strip with a AP shell . Bro , plz explain
I tried shooting at the bottom of tank but the damge of HE is just 40-70
Each ammunition for each tank has a different penetration
HESH is my favourite
I used to think ap and apcr worked the same way
Everyone has the missle Sheridan now :( na events are plagued with them
I'd rather use HEAT shells and it's my favorite one.
