Finished the Obj 279e Missions yesterday and just wanted to leave feedback on tanks I used and a short campaign review. Similar posts that I found on reddit and wot forums helped me a lot, so i decided to share my impressions too. Hopefully it will be useful for other players that are planning to go through this nightmare.
- Playing since 2013
- 38K Battles
- WN8: between 2300 – 2700 depending on tank
- Tier X Tanks: 43
- Total Number of tanks in Garage: 129
Obj 279e campaign negative:
- A large number of missions are poorly designed and do not require any skill or map knowledge because they rely on a combination of rng, map rotation and your team members.
- All missions that are including critical hits/internal modules were skipped using orders. Those missions are completely rng dependent, therefore they are a total waste of time.
- A lot of scouting/spotting missions are map and team dependent (plus rng layer on top of that).
- Some missions require longer matches which is currently very rare due to constant 15:2 games.
- Using premium ammo and premium consumables is a must.
- Being forced to play arty in order to finish the campaign.
- Rage levels and mental health.
Obj 279e campaign positive:
- Obj 279e as reward.
- Your vocabulary will be enriched with new curse words in multiple languages.
- Credits, bonds, consumables and directives are able to earn through rewards which will compensate for the expanses made by premium ammo and consumables usage.
- Crew members.
- That feeling when it's finally over.

For me personally, Obj 279e Missions were much easier than chimera missions. It's all about choosing the right tool for the job. I managed to clear all 60 missions in 2 months from May 2022 to July 16 2022 (including 2 weeks of vacation during which I did not play).
What now? Will probably make a break and then try to finish Union-15 and Coalition 15 with honors so I can pick up 3500 bonds.
