Main Changes

Crew

• Two crew perks have been updated (with no grace period for their reset):
  • Practicality now decreases consumable cooldown time by 15% (or by 30% with the Thorough Preparations directive).
  • Reliable Placement now increases HE shell damage absorption by 15%.
• The filter toggles on the crew member change screen and in the Barracks now remember the settings selected by the player.
• The Auto Return to Vehicle feature has been added. Players can enable this feature for any vehicle in their Garage. When activated, the last crew that fought a battle in that vehicle will automatically return to it as soon as the vehicle is selected in the vehicle panel.
• A brand-new crew operation, Mentoring Course, has been added. It allows players to transfer Crew XP from one crew member to another using a special new item, the Mentoring License. The crew member from whom the XP is transferred is subsequently removed from the player's account. All players can receive 3 free Mentoring Licenses by logging in to the game before the release of Update 1.28.1 (April 14–16).
• Crew members can now be managed more quickly and conveniently on the Quick Training screen. Standard operations with crew members can be selected and performed just like in the Garage.
