Crew makes ALOT of diffrence in top tier sadly. A whole second of reload makes a world of difference against most tanks. At low tier You one shot most things anyway since aphe so I don’t really have issues with relaods anyway.Imo the biggest problem of crew is repair time and enemy detection thingy that makes enemies not render in
Turret rotation for non hand cranked tanks at top tier is a big one that makes no sense, autoloaders dont get effected but these do for some reason.
I do got at lot of high tier and top tier stuff its mainly the cost of the stuff that really hinders me from gettint it. I usually only have around 2 million SL and most expert qualifications costs would obliterate my SL savings. I need SL to buy vehicles too so its a stuck between a rock and a hard place kinda situation for me.
Premium boat with 1800 sl mod and find one at a BR that sees more downtiers than uptiers and grind away is your best bet.
Not sure what that will be after decompression but if i had to guess 6.0/5.7. 6.7 is dead for sure. 6.3 will probably be brought up every match too with talismaned pre patch end of the lines that sit at 7.3.
Premium props are pretty good as well.
Tada’s Ki-61 is super easy to fly and has Rank IV income.
Unlike jets, it costs practically nothing to repair or spawn in case of ASB.
Spoiler
Max potential ~30K sl per 15 minutes without boosters or premium account in SB (screenshot is with +15% booster).
Even with dying without doing anything, it’s 7K SL:
Match in total got me 80K SL for 43 minutes of playing for fun.

I play the t55m and t72m so I know that feeling of having slow turrets. I literaly have 600k sl and I need 1 million for my next plane so sadly I wont be exporting anything anytime soon
Ya if you are playing soviet stuff until the bvm you basically have such slow turret rotation its mandatory to throw hull aiming into the mix to get more because an abrams can reload before your turret even turns 90 degrees lol.
Ye am doin sweden not ussr. Those 2 (55m and 72m) are the only russian mbts in the tree so I should be fine. My main issue is the repair. It just takes forever to repair rn. I got level 64 ground crew or somn like that on my best slot
Might recommend the Japs prem f86, I tend to get over 80k usually. and have gotten 627k with a 500%+200%Sl booster.
I buy experts for long grind or favorite tanks (ELC AMX), or full low tier (costs just a few K’s).
Planning to get it for my squadron T-80 that I’ll research soon (tho I dont have money for it yet…) Will take a while to grind… approximately 65th level? And a few thousands more
I think I expert crew on a couple of the Abrams but I can’t remember which ones as I’ve kind of given up on high tier play for now. Just not enjoyable for me anymore. Might jump back in at some point if they can actually balance it between ground and air and I’m not sure these new AA are going to do it from what I’ve read.
Finding the WWII play to be good but I’m enjoying all the low tier stuff. Working through most other nations trees. Unlocking camouflages is pretty fun. Did expert the 2 Fronts pack, all my TT Tigers, Porsche Tiger and the VK. Expert crews on my Shermans and M series TDs. Just expert the crews on the new USA and Soviet packs. Seems affordable enough so why not do it.
Happy hunting.

If it’s a vehicle I’m going to come back to year-in, year-out I will ace the crew. Object279, for example.
I mean there no point for me to train russian crew reloading because the autoloader
Always Expert them as they are all Level 150 and what else is there to do with the SL?

what sl ? I have been broke since hitting 9.3 air br. All my money goes to new stuff so I can never save up. By the time I get the sl for a crew upgrade I unlock a new thingy so I buy that instead and back to being broke
Just get half a year of premium time when it goes on sale, $20 on the web store (next 50% sale should be during Anniversary Sale, end of Oct/early Nov). Don’t even have to mess with GE’s. Comes out to $3.33 per month. Or even less per month if you get a year (with GE’s). Premium time on sale is cheaper than what pretty much any other major game charges for expansions non stop. If you play WT a lot, especially even a little bit daily, why waste time worrying about SL’s and instead just get Premium time? You will not have to slow down your grind and will have plenty of SL’s to Expert train anything you want.
For me expert is mandatory, especially for jets. For ground its optional if you play realistic, but if you play arcade, it’s essentially mandatory too.
I got some ace crews but only from naturally playing some vehicles a lot. The most important factor of crew skills for me is the spotting range (air and ground) and g-tolerance/stamina (air)
