Entrenchment XP

During Ground Battles and Ground Assault Arcade on maps where you’re exposed in the line of fire, tanker have 10 seconds to take cover at the beginning of the first wave but several second during that time bots are excellent shooters the chances of survival in exposure is less than -1% even against modern tanks. So Buildings get destroyed or bombed, but what if you trenched yourself some cover, sure it will take time but all that effort of digging and shooting must worth something. Survival is one but like digging for golden eagles in the dirt but XP depends on how deep you are and the kills you get while being in Trench or Fox hole.

Say you earn 5+ points for Entrenching a foot into the ground, then another 5+ points for another layer of dirt removed then another for 5+ points, the deeper you Entrench the more points your earn, because unlike airstrikes that has little effect and time to hit targets it’s mainly a tool so why not treat your Dozer some points when in use.

Complains:
Some players were pissed off that I was wasting time and silver digging holes in a map with the use of smoke grenades, some were harrassing me saying go play Farming simulator lol but I guess they don’t like to get their own hands dirty.

Special Ability Vehicles:
If we are able to get special ability tanks like the British Army Bridge Carrier

,the modern version TITAN


or the M3 Amphibious carrier.

To know more about these special vehicles in the BA I suggest you check this link out and how Gaijin might come up with something in the near future for WarThunder.

I don’t think many players care about the entrenching functionality because by the time you’ve done anything really useful with the plow, the match is either over, or very nearly so. The games just don’t last long enough to make the entrenching effort worth it. You’d get more points by scouting, getting kills, capping points, etc. anyhow. And those actions could actively help the team push towards victory, rather than just digging a hole.

Well it helped me alot for making cover to protect my tank from fire. If not then what was the point having them on the game?

Another module to research and repair.

I think most players are asking that same question, tbh. I would love to see the data on how often that functionality is actually used in game. I suspect it’s used an embarrassingly low percentage of the time.

I use it all the time to construct cover for waves of enemy tanks. I’m sure I could earn some silver or golden eagles for digging holes on the battlefield.
