Grinding high tier with low tier

[PurplePhoenix]

Does anybody know what is the RP multiplier when I’m grinding IV era with II era tanks?

[Stellar Fox]

1 year per tank, probably. outside the efficient research tiers for a tank it'll become really slow.

2 ranks difference upwards: -70%


Hmm, I have a hard time believing the values in that table, seems to be a lower malus for me...

Its bad. But it doesnt matter if you are happy playing at the lower ranks like me.
About to finish tge T-62.
Ive never played a rank 5 game and havent many rank 4 games either tbh.
In fact the only rank 3 tanks i play anymore are the yag-10 and the zis-43.

I need to change my habits....

I’m asking because I’m thinking of grinding French tanks with B1 Ter. Any thoughts?

F2 will spoil your day so so so often

Low rank French tanks suck.

Why would you wish to use them?


3.0-3.7 French rocks for me, AMX-13 (FL11) + M10 + ARL44 + CCKW 353 AA.

You have to get used to the AMX's springy suspension and wobbly cannon (with miserable depression), but apart from that it's smooth sailing for me with those.

it's a bad idea grinding high tier tanks with low tier tanks, its much better to grind with your top tier vehicles as you wont suffer the research penalty.

Normal vehicles have the research penalty in both directions.

Only premiums don't suffer from a downward research penalty.

You can, BUT it may not be a good plan. High tier plays out very differently from your current br.

RP is garbage on a good day, anything but a top performance with a premium account, a premium vehicle, a match win and a game that's at least 10 minutes is trash.

Yepp. War Thunders progression is just stagnation and hinders the game dramaticly.

there's no Elo or SBMM. If anything higher tier stuff is easier to play.

But yes you can just buy a higher tier premium and grind out a whole tree. If you look at the stats it'll say what tiers you can grind without penalty.
