So I've finally researched T-10 and was excited for it after playing IS-3 and having been very happy with it. But after 15 or so battles, I think I'm done. There is absolutely no way I'm going to grind around 110k XP (gun + turret + tracks) to get this tank to working condition.
While stock, the gun is almost identical to the IS-3, but now I have to either a) fight against tier X heavies with it or b) try to carry against other tier 9 heavies, which is really hard. The turret works about 50% of the time, and I have to rely on it, since without the tracks and engine I'm too slow to go anywhere but the heavy line. It feels like playing 50TP but without the armor and the gun.
This is psychological torture WG.
I don't really enjoy having to farm free XP for a week or so just to be able to play a tank. Why does it have to be like this?
