Changes in how boosters work

Starting today, you can activate your current boosters before a battle!

Useful information:

  • Campaign experience boosters allow you to speed up your tank or ship campaign level and are relevant for players who have not yet reached the maximum campaign level. You can instantly upgrade your campaign level for Golden Eagles in the "vehicle tree" window or by purchasing a premium version of a common vehicles.
  • Vehicles experience boosters are needed to level up common vehicles purchased for Silver Lions to level 25. Leveling up will not only set the maximum parameters of the Arsenal, but will also unlock new shells and vehicles in the platoon. Premium and event vehicles are given out immediately with a maximum level 25.
  • Silver Lion boosters are always useful: with them you will receive 2 times more "silver" after the battle. This will not only allow you to save up for new vehicles faster, but also accelerate your advancement in the Common rating of the current Season.

Changes

  • HMS Glorious – the crew has been redistributed across the ship, it will increase her survivability. Slightly increased the limit angle of torpedo launching – now you don't have to turn the ship so much beam on towards the target for launching.

  • Leopard 1A5 – the APFSDS shell DM33 has been added. Available at platoon level 11.
