RP Rewards vs New Vehicles

Here’s the numbers:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/11rHoVOSn-0FkuP_jsKB8lG272R_IK-pu1ThXHjxrQrc/edit?tab=t.0

1 second staying alive in ARB gives you 1.22 RP per second
1 second staying alive in GRB gives you 0.71 RP per second

This is multiplied by your activity%, where in ARB you want about 1000 score per 10 minutes to maintain 90% reward. In GRB, I don’t see such numbers.

GRB is further impacted by respawns. Your activity% is not perfectly your account’s, but vehicle’s. Meaning, 90% activity in vehicle A won’t mean 90% activity in vehicle B. Meaning, earning 1500 score in your Panther A and afking for 20 minutes gives more RP than earning 1500 score in your panther A, dying 10 minutes in and respawning as a Panther F and earning 0 score for the second 10 minute cycle.

The data is a biiit outdated as it’s from before the Severe Damage mechanic was implemented, but my personal experience lines up with it with good confidence

Its a shame because unless you can stay alive and active for the better part of a match or just simply get lots of kills you get barely around 3k rp in my experience (with premium acc), meanwhile in air (with premium acc) you might get about ~5k by just flying tabbed out into battle getting one kill and staying alive for the rest

My point exactly, plus the amount of time it takes for each match is quite long with taking off and eventually getting to the enemies. Then rinse and repeat over and over.

Just played a match in GRB with premium account, Died twice got 4 kills in my first tank, 4 kils in my second spawn. Match finishes, get 7k RP nice…

imo, worst trees to grind from best to worse are

  1. Air
  2. Bluewater
  3. Ground
  4. Heli
  5. Coastal

But yes, overall, the economy at top tier is getting insane.

And what happened to the Gripen?

Well documented series of nerfs, including numerous FM nerfs, reduced BOL cm effectiveness and the fact that the gripen C in game is a Frankenstein model which lacks a new engine or MAW plus a plethora of other avionics and features

Still incredibly good, and it’s not like we have real FM data irl to base it off of

Yeah air needs a serious rework, longer game play with respawns like ground RB would be preferred so there’s a chance to get more RP. I’m to the point where I use to buy new premium vehicles when they came out but don’t anymore because the length of time to grin just one line of planes in a tech tree is too exhausting.

Wait until you see Ground RB

These days I play Air sim, economy isnt great but unlocked the Tornado Gr4 in about 4 hours
