Type 64 Light- opinions?
By: bluebanditjim Date: November 30, 2016, 6:19 pm

Anyone have a recommendation regarding the Type 64? Having saved
up some gold for the holiday sales, and finding only bundles and
vehicles I already had I am considering buying this. As a
footnote...has anyone noted that for all the "I am not buying
the BE tanks for black Friday in the WOT forums there are tons
of them running around in tier 8 battles. I feel duped. :bash:

Some of the people who purchased the Black tanks might not have
enough intelligence to read, hence, they were never on the
forums to begin with? :oops:

Sad, I bought the Lowe BE...its ok, money would have been better
spent on the regular Lowe.

I am not referring to OFF forums. There really wasn't much talk
about it. You are better off with the BE Lowe because you get
that nice crew xp bonus and that will be there permanently.
Worth the extra gold if you were going to get a Lowe already.
The only BE edition tank I did not have a TT version of was the
T34, but after buying a year of premium during the sale I just
could not pull the trigger on another chunk of cash so soon.
Live and learn. I don't begrudge anyone owning a BE, just noted
that all the hater speech on regular forums kinda got me
thinking in a rebellious manner. Should something like that
happen again. I mean the training bonuses then perhaps I will
bite.

My opinion on the type 64: Its a premium hellcat that has a low
ammo supply. Its pretty good.

Fifstreet is actually correct: the Type 64 is a historically
accurate Hellcat (which never mounted a 90 mm in real life).
I really enjoy mine, though I played about 80% of my games in it
with a crew lacking Sixth Sense—and I do NOT recommend that,
btw. :bigsmile:
Very good mobility and camo, and the rate of fire is fantastic.
Biggest issue: ammo capacity. I've ran out several times, mostly
in tier IX games. You'll also need a healthy dose of APCR
because, again, tier IX games.
I run optics full time, and then add camo net and binos -- while
the optics and binos don't stack, having both allows me to
either passive or active scout depending on the map and matchup.
(I don't use a rammer because the RoF is good enough.)

If you are a light tank connoisseur I think you'll like it, I
bought it but just don't play lights that much.
