Basic Strategy for World of Tanks on Xbox One

In spite of the recent lag issues and freezing on the xbox one version of World of Tanks I have decided to write this guide to better help the new players get better at the game.

First off there are 5 types of tanks in the game that all have their strengths and weaknesses.

The first is a light tank. Light tanks are meant for scouting and hunting for artillery units. The reason for scouting is cause their detection range is much further in distance. With dealing with artillery they are usually much faster than the artillery shells firing at you. with this you can get right up next to them to tale them out sense artillery in the game have little to no armor and little health as well.

The second one is Medium Tanks. Medium Tanks are meant for assault and supporting light tanks in their scouting missions. Medium tanks have significantly more armor and stronger guns that some can even give heavy tanks trouble. They however have less turning speed than light tanks and are less maneuverable.

The third one is Heavy Tanks. Heavy Tanks have significantly thicker armor and better guns. They are great for assaults and can do massive damage. The downfall however is they are slow and turn very slowly. They can be easily outflanked in a fight so their flanks needed to be watched.

The fourth one is a Tank Destroyer. Tank destroyers have guns as strong and sometimes stronger than heavies and usually have great armor in front but is terrible at turning and the turret stays in one spot so you have to turn the whole tank to aim in a different direction. They are best used for sniping and ambushes. They are easily flanked and should take extra caution when engaging enemies in open combat.

The 5th and final is Mobile Artillery. Their guns are super powerful and can 1 shot almost all light tanks, most mediums and some heavies. The range is amazing and most fully upgraded can hit almost every spot on the map. The downfall is they are very slow and zeroing the round location takes a while depending on the power of the gun. They are also easily outflanked and have light armor so they can easily be destroyed by all tanks.

Well there you have it. I hope this helps the new players in battle. Another thing to remember is don't shoot your own players. Don't drive in front of your players. Also finally always remember that tank destroyers can be easily beaten if you ram them in their side making it so you can destroy them before they can get a shot at you.
