Why Talismans in Warbond Shop only limited to rank 5?

With the addition of rank 9, I noticed the warbond shop talismans its still limited to only rank 5 for several years.

Gaijin abandoned this shop or why they do not increase the max rank for random talismans in the shop?

Also for the premium vehicles, that the max one are ww2 ones.

It’s a way to ensure people will still buy talismans and the higher tier premiums with real money

i wish if they increase it a lot of players would have chance to get free rank 6/7 tank would help them grind.

Considering the talisman its random vehicle and cant even select the nation. I would say its pretty balanced right now.

Also each of rank 5 talisman cost a lot of warbonds, so if you would want 2 or 3 talismans you would have to buy the battlepass or safe some for the next battlepass season.

With rank 6 the cost could get higher.

You can also turn upgrade coupons from the events into 1,600 War Bonds, fwiw:

Not worth it, also still not enough WB for a talisman.

It’s worth it for me lol, I keep all the event vehicles. And especially with ground events. It is not as boring for me to grind enough mission points for the coupon. Just free WB’s to me.

Yes, but it is still WB’s. And a lot of them at that.

Beyond all this stuff, premiums are vastly better than worrying about talismans. Talismans do not let you grind all the way down to Tier 1 like premiums, nor do they have the 2.0x to SL rewards that premium vehicles have.

I would never get a talisman over a premium vehicle that I do not have from the Warbond Shop.

I barely can have the 8 stars of an event, but for the upgrade cupon I need the double or more of playtime I used for the stars. All that just for 1,600 WB not worth it for me.

I think the max rank for premium its rank 3?
I do not really like low tier anyway.

In the past, I have often got two rank V talismans out of a battlepass. Meanwhile, I find the price for them too high and the work too much fort what you get. This not only requires additional 20 rank III tasks just for requirements but it will also drain you further 600 WB for the specials. Then you have little controll over the placement.

The better strategy (for me) is to push to level 125, sell the lukewarm premiums and during sale, buy exactly what you want. Or just grab 3 lesser talismans that work for me during pass grind.

We did have rank 4 vehicles in the shop before, notably the P-51 premium.
