A new activity will take place in World of Tanks
from June 16th through July 10th—the Assembly Shop.
It will deliver limited vehicles to players in a brand-new way.
You can get a Tier X tank without researching the entire branch!
And most importantly, you get to choose which resources you want to use for that.
The pioneer of the Assembly Shop will be the Object 780.
It can be obtained in two forms.
The first 5,000 players will receive the tank with a special 3D style
that not only changes the vehicle's look but also has a unique factory number!
It's located on the tank's barrel and turret.
And this is its distinctive feature!
You won't get to see another one like this in the game!
The numbered vehicles are available in limited quantities.
But there's still time to decide.
And even more than that.
As soon as the tanks with the unique number come to an end,
you will still have the opportunity to get the Object 780.
10,000 more vehicles without the 3D style will be ready for delivery.
In terms of its characteristics, the tank commands respect.
At first glance, this is quite a mobile and armored heavy tank.
Its top speed is 45 km/h, and its specific power is 17 horsepower per ton.
Strong turret, well-angled small lower and upper glacis plates.
All in all, your typical breakthrough tank.
But if you look closely, you'll see that it's not that simple.
The Object has a surprisingly cool gun.
Good accuracy, excellent aiming time and penetration, huge damage per shot.
And even good gun depression!
All these characteristics
allow the tank to play completely different roles in battle.
It can be equally effective both as a breakthrough tank
and, thanks to its almost sniper gun, a support vehicle.
What's important
is to not forget to equip it with the Modified Configuration.
It will keep you from burning.
Well-armored, mobile, and with a handy gun.
This is the first truly versatile Soviet heavy tank.
How does the Assembly Shop work?
To get the Object 780, you need to spend resources.
Five types exist:
bonds, gold, credits, Free Experience, and blueprint fragments.
A bar of resource accumulation will be displayed at the bottom.
To start accumulating resources,
you just need to select the amount of a specific resource
in a corresponding window and click "Spend Resources."
How you do it exactly is up to you!
You can spend resources on parts during the whole event.
And you can fill in the bar with only one resource or several ones.
You should start with Free Experience—
this is the most advantageous resource of the Assembly Shop.
Everyone has it on their account,
and it can be converted from Combat Experience or simply earned.
In the latter case, Personal Reserves will help.
The most convenient resource— for obvious reasons—is gold.
With its help, you can quickly fill in the progression bar
and get the desired tank if you don’t want to spend too much time on it.
However, it will cost a lot.
It’s much more profitable to invest gold
in the conversion of Combat Experience to Free Experience.
Bonds will also help.
Their value is quite high, so you can use them
to fill in a significant part of the progression bar.
For example,
6,000 bonds is a little bit more than the cost of a piece of equipment.
At the same time, 6,000 bonds can fill the progression bar by a nice 15%.
Blueprint fragments can easily be called the main auxiliary resource.
Every player probably has unused fragments
that will come in handy in the Assembly Shop.
They can help fill in up to 36% of the progression bar:
22% with national fragments and 14% with universal ones.
Credits are the least convenient currency
for filling in the progression bar.
Yes, it’s easy to earn them, but you will need too many of them
to fill in the progression bar up to 100%.
You should use credits in two cases: either to reach 100%
after you’ve first filled in the bar with other resources,
or in case you really have A LOT of credits.
There are plenty of combinations to fill in the progression up to 100%.
You just need to understand which option suits you best.
Everything depends on the resources you have,
the time you’re ready to spend,
and whether or not you wish to invest gold
in the conversion of Combat Experience to Free Experience.
If you don't manage to spend enough resources in time and get the tank,
all invested resources will return to your account automatically.
Moreover, you can return all your resources at any moment.
Just press the corresponding button.
Use your chance.
Spend resources and get your reward!
The Assembly Shop begins its work!
