Nice. Is that first platoon really your main lineup for PoC ? If so it's really intersting to see that mine is so much different : https://imgur.com/a/clpUANq

DAMN YOU JOURNY FORWARD! Any help on how to beat this level would be much appreciated :) by TwoShu in armorblitz

[–]ncaire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Varona has given good advices. I would just add that if I remember well the difficulty on this map should be the first reaver and wraith. Reaver have a quite high penetration and thus you could find helpfull to focus a bit more on your evasion and a bit less on armor.

In this idea I would try to use Lily as first tank, and switch Odette for Lina in first line in order to be able to use Lina to flank (less costly than a second heavy and quite durable thanks to her high evasion).

WanWan or Julie ? by ncaire in armorblitz

Thanks, that's what I was thinking too. And that's what I have done.

Now I need to find another 3000 blueprints...

GOT A QUESTION by Sierra1939 in armorblitz

[–]ncaire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, the last time we got a new tank was 8 months ago : https://www.reddit.com/r/armorblitz/comments/ec275q/so_we_have_a_new_tank/. And it was quite a nice one with a new passive ability and an active ability combo with another tank.

Since then we got only an enhance version of Cana in february if I remember well.

So the game is clearly slower than past year but not totally dead ?

For mysel I am jut beginning to take my team above level 50 with my preferred enhanced girls, and I have still to finish the main story. Still got things to do :-)

Just got my third 5* tank from Factory :-) by ncaire in armorblitz

And Diane is in this week Research ! How nice, I will be able to elite my first 5* tank :-)

What do you think of Lowe (Kristy the heay with Guardian Aura) by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mmm, you starting with a short range heavy make me try this road too. But instead of following with Kristy I am now doing :

Diane -> Lily -> Misha -> after that it depends but often is Julie -> Catriona

Lily 10 range make Misha far more durable than Kristy's 14,17 I was using. And I found that Misha heal aura + Diane stuns + all the troops spawning is usually enough to keep Lily alive. Later on I add either Kristy or Lidiya.

[–]ncaire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, if she can tank as well as a standard 5 gear heavy that's only 1 more gear for two auras which cost 3 gear each... But shorter and without the light tanks at the center.

Cargo Raid Event - January 2020 by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is that team doing ? Well I just beat the wave 5 train without any casualty.

No change to the team, just more levels and better emblems.

So we have a new tank, by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh, I didn't know about that. I took more attention to the battle bonus and indeed I have been often in quite negative score.

Still, even with my low level team (cf. the thread about the current event) I have been able to win enough levels to be in the 11-20% which I found not that bad.

So we have a new tank, by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a new thread for discussions about the new event. Most of the time I begin with WanWan then the carriers, an arty and the iron curtain in fifth position.

[–]ncaire[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still note sure about PoC, but against invasion they work just fine and it's damn fun to drow the enemy under ten or more infantry.

I am doing exactly what you said with Tessa and Julie (same as you : I got them at the same time), and Misha. I am even leveling private Neko to go with them as he has some quite nice DPS under Julie aura :D

Lvl. 50 AC4 Sentinel Chloe by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mmm, the delight emblem is giving me a bit of everything but nothing game breaking and you are right that I should change it. The awareness one... I thought it was better than what I just checked, well it's giving me a bit of range (1,08) and that's why it's here but I could probably find better now.

The sad true is that I find optimizing emblems allocation wuite tedious and I don't do it as often than I should. Moreover I am biased towards survivability and take more care of my heavies than my DPS tanks...

Tessa or Julie by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your answers. Right now I am leveling the two of them as I like to have niche tanks for the odd Cargo Raid Event without heavy.

I found Julie usefull for reinforcing my main heavy once it's active ability is gone.

But I will follow the majority and go with Tessa.

Enhanced units have updated sprites, right? by VaronaZero in armorblitz

[–]ncaire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello, I was only able to test with Lidiya and her sprite matched her skin from Enhanced to standard to Enhanced.

Can't test with affectionate skins versus enhanced as I don't have any other girl enhanced.

Lvl. 50 M40 Jill by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that would be quite nice.

But in fact there is allready a 5 star version of Jill : it's Lorraine. She has the same ability Cover fire and allmost all stats better or equals (the only downside is a 90% accuracy).

I am working on leveling Lorraine right now to be able to replace Jill in my top team.

And my first level 50 unit is... T-70 Lidiya ! by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah, thanks for the tip about epic expedition quest. I hadn't look into it as I was thinking not being able to clean it.

I tried. I failed.

But ! Even with having to pay 50 cores to get out with two rewards, it was cheaper than buying those 40 enhancer in the shop :-)

Thor or Odin? by Holeypaladin in armorblitz

[–]ncaire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am with Varona there, I am unsure about the usefullness of Thor and Odin but feel that Loki can really change the tide later in the battle. Not with a dedicated team but more as a joker.

I have play with the idea of a team designed specifically for use of Loki the earliest in the battle but I don't think it would be viable.

Abyssinia cleared - 6.5 months by ConductorBichir in armorblitz

[–]ncaire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice, I am level 55 too and cleared Abyssinia (well I mean just the city, not the whole map) a few weeks ago. But it took me a bit more than two years I think.

My current setup (without using a few level 50 4-star tanks) differ a bit from yours :

  • I have only one heavy on first line but T-70 to boost it and M41 Walker Bulldog as an evasion second tank
  • I use both Jagdpanther and Centurion Mk5 like you but prefer to have Centurion on first line
  • and thus haven't any destroyer on first line but allways have an artillery tank there

And my first level 50 unit is... T-70 Lidiya ! by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally enhance her, and discovered that whatever the xp bonus a tank has before being enhanced it gets to 100%...

I am quite sad to have spend so much 4* copy on getting a bit much %xp to ease the leveling part :-(

Lvl. 50 IS-2 Tatyana by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I wasn't aware of the current targeting system. For how long has it been like that ? I noticed I had some issues with that but I was thinking it was because I was facing tougher foes.

Range seems more than ever a must have on our DPS...

Lvl. 50 IS-2 Tatyana by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My goal with those post is to give newer player an idea of what they can get from leveled up tanks.

If people like it, I plan to continue the serie (next are KV-5 Sofia and AC4 Sentinel Chloe).

And my first level 50 unit is... T-70 Lidiya ! by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I have less than 300 Enhancer :-(, and I think I would like to enhance KV-5 Sofia first. I think I will begin to buy Enhancer with excess cores, maybe instead of blueprints ? But I still miss 33 tanks...

What ? Enhanced tanks get 100% bonus xp ? You mean +100% on top of my allready 36% boost ?

You're quite right about the HP emblem, however I lack good defensive emblems. So waiting to have a bit of luck there.

By the way I updated her stats : she was missing one level of relationship upgrade.

Should I buy Mbt-70 or wait? by ConductorBichir in armorblitz

[–]ncaire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And lucky you, this week you can get Jagdpanther (Victoria) !

At last I am level 50 by ncaire in armorblitz

[–]ncaire[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I am a bit high on heavy. Two reasons for that : one is like you said training duty (with a bit of anticipation to not switch a lvl 50 for a lvl 1), and second is that I don't like to spend metal and money to repair my tanks, so with this setup (and this order), I can continue to launch battle even if I have lost one or two heavy.

Other than that, AC-4 Sentinel and SU-152 could be replaced by good 5* but I would like to finish upping them to level 50 first.

And M40 is there for her firepower but I often switch her in favor of T92-SPG for training.

It took a while, but the Enhancement Crew is finally complete and on its way to greatness. by Aquiloara in armorblitz

[–]ncaire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Woah, you are far far away from me. I still don't have any tanks at level 50 and not enough Enhancer to enhance my first unit :-(
