Winter SL gamble comming soon, share you methode of grinding SL

Well its the time of the year again, where we join and spent all our SL to just get some boats and decals.

So i want to share my personal method of how i get good amount of money. There is different ways, exemple the mode you play, air or ground and realistic or sim.

for me its easy, after the 2024 winter event, i got 50 gaijin coins who i bought 10k Ge in May 2025, it was all planed, premium T-34 of WW2 day, after that i decided to buy the T-44 FM battle pass and ofc the KV-122. plus to add the cherry on top, i got the p47 premium for cas.

  • this my line up now as november 2025
  • average of 80k to 150k per game (depend down or up tier ) and not to forget the 500k of the wager, destroy 5 tanks/plane per game.

tbh I think its all about finding some premiums that you enjoy so you don’t burn out in the middle after getting like 100k.

I have a lot of premium lineups that do very well on paper but so far this is the one I am most comfortable with. This one has great SL multipliers, great downtier rates and very consistent performance, it’s just a bit pricy for a 5.7 lineup.

I just use 10 kills wagers (in air arcade because I suck and it’s the only way I can complete it), though I don’t gamble because as I said I’m bad and I don’t get a lot more than I spend per match so I gotta save the sl for my expensive planes.
If you’re better than me then you can use wagers to get gambling money

I have a 5.3 USSR GRB lineup with six premiums. Activate destroy 10/5 units wagers. Easy SL printing.

Another way of mine is to base bomb with the Kfir Canard. To be fair there aren’t much things you can do with it.

At first i was gonna buy the tiger line up since i already have the ju288c and the vk 45.01. But 8 was grinding the ussr tree so that why i chose ussr.

But there is a other sale coming in Christmas where most of the premium will be 50% off

My 7.0 US ground, it’s just a safe and easy to play lineup:

Spoiler

However I’m mostly grinding SL for the vehicle sale though, still have a bunch of vehicles that I have to buy.

I do have some advice to maximize SL gains once during the SL crate events: SL Gambling chest when - #7 by SilentTracker

Full Copy+Paste so the text colors show up 👇😉

SO! Just in case you did not know yet, premium vehicles DOUBLE the effect of SL boosters! (As well as doubling the SL % boost from Premium Time.) During the SL Crate events I can make as many or MORE SL’s than I did in the previous 2-3 months. If you really really want to push the SL crates, I would highly suggest getting premium time. I just get the 180 days of prem time 2x a year when it goes on sale for 50% off, only $20. $40/year, or $3.33/month. (If you don’t already have prem time, and don’t mind spending a little, you could get like 1 month for the crate event, and then get the 180 day thing off webstore during the Anniversary sale.) It is NOT on sale right now, so $40. But on 50% sale drops to $20: Gaijin.Net Store - Premium account for 180 days

With prem time+prem vehicles+all the SL boosters you get during the crate events, you can easily get twice as many crates (and twice as many chances at vehicles) than if you didn’t have prem time, or use prem vehicles.

Premium Time (Account) + Premium Vehicles + SL Boosters = 🤑

Second advice for those SL boosters, do NOT double up on the SL boosters unless they are going to expire. And do NOT spend all of your SL’s on crates during the first day/week! I only buy more crates when I run out of SL boosters. The RP boosters are like 2x or even 10x more common that the SL boosters, so I will double or even triple up on the RP ones so they don’t expire like crazy. But the biggest boost for me was forcing myself to spread out the crate purchases over the entire month so that I could use up the SL boosters and get MORE crates over the course of the event.

Happy hunting bros!

My suggestion is to farm the SL before the crate event strikes, not during.

Read my post above. It is EXTREMELY effective to maximize the SL boosters you get from the crates during the SL events. To repeat, I make as much in one month during the SL crate events as I do in the proceeding months in between the crates.

It is important to build up a war chest of SL’s before the SL crate event starts so that you can keep getting SL boosters once the crates start. But once the SL crates do start, that is the most effective time to spend grinding SL’s for maximum efficiency.

MiG-21S in air RB.

A good premium helicopter + booster in PvE

Activate the wager of most AI ground kills in air rb. Almost no one go for ai targets and with gbu 39 its so easy

EDIT: I was thinking of ORDERS, not wagers. Orders ARE affected by the 2.0x SL boost from Premium Vehicles while WAGERS are NOT affected by Premium Vehicles.

Original Reply:

But are there any premium planes with the GPU-39’s currently? That is the only downside I have found with using those 😭

Dang, yeah just checked all the planes that show up. I wish we had a premium A-10 that had them 😂
