Update 1.14.1: Chinese Vehicle Rebalance

Vehicle balance in World of Tanks is in a perpetual and natural state of flux, with the stats for individual tanks as well as whole branches getting adjusted based on their battle performance. Judging by the recent data, the time has come for a complete rebalance of Chinese heavy and medium tanks, including seven researchable vehicles and a Premium one.

Each vehicle’s case is individual, with different stats that need changing, but the revisions to be made in 1.14.1 are all designed to make playing these Chinese tanks more convenient. Take a look at the widget below—it includes every affected vehicle and shows the stat adjustments that will be applied. Take note that the exact values aren’t final (as is always the case during these tests).
