Lynx 6x6 Review/Guide, Vision Control and Flanking Tactics

Рет қаралды 28,019

5 жыл бұрын

This is my 2nd look at the Panhard AML Lynx 6x6, a tier 8 French wheeled light tank in World of Tanks (WoT), with replays of tier 9 Malinovka and Sand River battles.
I discuss vision control for wheeled vehicles given their very low view range and how to leverage their mobility to create opportunities for flanking fire.
This video is part of my "Road to Unicum" series in which I share what I learned as I progressed towards account Unicum rating (top 1%) with silver ammo only. I talk through how I'm reading the battle as it unfolds and discuss key decisions and mistakes. My hope is that these videos meaningfully help players improve their gameplay.

The shell absorbing wheel is selected by a lot more users because it was annoying a f for all players except artillery. That said, I agree that the HE is also too good at meta breaking. That ammo eats almost all other LTs alive, and there's almost no counterplay since it is much faster than other LTs so they can dictate the flow. The only 'counterplay' is playing a lot more passively, which changed how you should play your light tanks from your usual play -- so yeah, meta breaking.

Well actually Taugrim, the wheeled vehicles do have an increased survivability when dropping off steep ledges thanks to their improved suspension. That is intended to avoid crashing with the increased speed. Obviously you'll still crash very often, but it's a quality of life thing that WG did put in.

@taugrim 5 жыл бұрын

That's very fair perspective. So the suspension helps with drops, but wheeled vehicles tend to crash / fishtail more.

The most frustrating thing about the wheeled vehicles is when you smack them flat broadside with a gigantic gun that can penetrate 200mm of hardened steel armor, and the shell is absorbed by a tire? Seriously? The french should just cover all their tanks in whatever that rubber is and they'd be invincible...

@gfhjkfghj4208 5 жыл бұрын

That, and that a destroyed wheel doesn't hurt them much. If you go 80km/h or more offroad and lose a tire, you should certainly crash, spin over and probably hurt your crew. If you hit a track, which should be much sturdier than a wheeled suspension, the tank stops at once, but a destroyed wheel doesn't affect their speed and handling much. Armored Warfare handles that much better imho. One hit wheel makes a big difference in speed and handling, even for 8x8s. Also most shells and turret speeds are much faster than in WoT and many vehicles have autocannons. Nobody would shoot a fast aluminium light tank or AFV with a 120mm main gun if a .50 MG or 20mm AC would do.

@szethcaligo3735 5 жыл бұрын

It's not actually the tire absorbing the shot most of the time, although it might look like it. It works as regular spaced armor. The difference is that while the hull is right behind the track on regular tanks, that isn't the case with wheels. There's actually barely any hull behind the wheels, so most of the time it goes straight through the wheel and hits nothing, and it registers as a critical hit because the shell passed through the wheel. With HEAT and HE it obviously is different due to normalization.

My biggest problem with wheeled vehicles is, that they are extremely hard to deal with: - they have comparable guns to light tanks - they have way better autoaim ability, while locking aim or leading shots and gun accuracy on the move is worse on light tanks. They are extremely hard to hit at close range, while they can hit light tank more reliably. - they are unpredictable, some players are nearly suiciding close to enemies (like LT on Malinovka), which can make enemy light tanks spotted before they reach their position. Survival of LT on open field is way worse. I'm not sure if they are overpowered or not. They are likely somewhat better damage dealers than light tanks and they are more flexible. I think they can win vs. light tank 1vs1, but they are worse at spotting and they are completely unable to spot for themselves. With tier 6 amd, i noticed that i'm getting into situations where I can't decide if i will get spotted when I fire, because I don't know where are enemy tanks and there's no way to find out.

@matthbva 5 жыл бұрын

My vote in the poll came from my experience playing wheelies. I have taken so many zero-damage hits from big guns, in what are supposed to be paper tanks, that it feels absurd. It seems like you get a lot more of those in wheelies than in standard light tanks, although that could just be confirmation bias at work. It's not always the wheels; sometimes it's just funny angles and RNG, and the fact that you're moving so damn fast. Either way, it feels a bit like cheating. .

I think that reticle snap was a result of your tank over turning when it popped up over the hill and your turret had to catch up to your camera view....I think. You can see your tank was facing parallel to the T29 as you were cresting the hill with your turret facing the T29. You went into sniper mode to shoot, and when you came out, your tank was rotated over 90 degrees. I think you went airborne and with the angle of the slop and you trying to stop, it jerked your tank to the left upon landing and your turret had to catch up to your camera view.

Only using HE cause ya know... that 105mm pen is great👌🏼 able to pen the back of a IS-7 & 60TP was amazing. Played carefully for the most part. Just peaked enough where I can spot. Tried to help a Foch B from getting circled by a progetto. Accidentally rammed into it and died. But all in all doing over 10k combined I think is a good game common test or not.

That moment when you mentioned your aiming circle snapping from the left to right onto that t29... @9:45 You were driving left to right in sniper view and you tried to maneuver, what happened is your tires lost traction at the peak of that little hill the second u went into sniper view @9:46 and your vehicle spun to the left, when u left sniper view @9:49 your tank was facing to the left. That "lag" was just your aiming circle catching up to the fact your tank was now facing in the opposite direction it was just a second ago. No lag, just the games physics working against you. I had that happen to me twice where I rolled up on a ridge in sniper view, my vehicle spun 180 degrees unbenounced to me at the crest and when I tried to back up I ended up driving forward further over the ridge because my tank (car) and controls were backwards at that point. I had to ask the guy next to me if he hit me because I was really confused.

Well, I voted on shell absorbing wheels too, because when you finally hit this cockroach, it's really frustrating (and also bs, gum and air stopping the anti-tank shell? c'mon), but it doesn't mean its speed isn't op. And I'm not talking about ppl driving brain-deadly in straight line, because then any tank isn't a challenge, but about ppl using it with brain - wiggling and changing directions often. If auto-aim could keep up with it at least sometimes, it could be good enough... Also, another problem with wheelchairs is, the map weren't made with thought about them and as result, ppl are getting spotted in places, where they're supposed to be safe in 1st minute - like on highway during passage to city. And because wheelchairs are classified as light tanks, there is ofter situation where you can see wheeler vs standard light tank (usually being eaten by wheeler).

The repairs first is because it is one of the most important skills and it provides a benefit as soon as you start training it, unlike 6th sense and BIA where you have to reach 100% on before they do anything. So people will play with repairs (you can also do it with camo on lights/TDs) until they reach 100% and then retrain to 6th sense / BIA with gold, thus getting the maximum benefit while grinding crew XP.

I think the Lynx 6x6 is worth getting for the simple reason that it leads to the tiers 9 and 10.

The gun of wheeled vehicles are definitely too accurate. This IMO is the biggest imbalance, since they can make shots while running 60-70 kph. This makes chasing them down by other lights or mediums very difficult, since wheeled vehicles also get amazing HE shells. They can hit you far more reliably and do more damages. And quickly the hunter can become the hunted. The speed and less tracked wheels are basically good view range trade offs. I just do not see why the guns of wheeled vehicles have to be that accurate if they are supposed to be dog fighters. Now they are insane snipers as well.

The gun handling overall is too good in terms of dispersion and aim time. However, the guns are not that accurate: Lynx 6x6 0.40 accuracy, EBR 90 and EBR 105 0.38 accuracy. So they are not really built to snipe.

@beil555 5 жыл бұрын

@@taugrim Gun handling is part of what makes a tank accurate. The fast aiming time and extremely small dispersion values of wheeled tanks fully compensate that slight accuracy limit disadvantage, which are not that bad in the first place. Lights and mediums rarely fully stop and fully aim without turret movements, even when sniping. As the result, wheeled vehicles can shoot at an accuracy comparable if not better than other tanks at the time of sniping. Grill is a good example of other end of spectrum of having extremely good theoretical accuracy with terrible dispersion values, which make it not as accurate as it looks on paper. In FL mode, I found wheeled vehicles often make shots very reliably at long distances. And in this video, you had countless shots made at ~400m. Just checked on tanks.gg, with Vent, BIA and food which you ran, the accuracy limit is 0.35 for Lynx. Even better.

This does tend to fishtail a lot, though I am helping it out with the handbrake. The wheels can absorb ridiculous damage but I think they should, these tanks are so easy to destroy and they usually get outspotted by anything

So here is one way to frame the Lynx's OP status: T92: WoT t8, AW t2 Object 430: WoT t9, AW t4 IS-7 : WoT t10, AW t4 Object 279: WoT "too powerful for game", AW t5 Lynx (aka ERC90): WoT t8, AW t5 Beyond shoehorning a t10 into a t8 slot, the entire line is ridiculous. We asked for WW2 era armored cars: The Greyhound, the Puma, the Humber. Instead, for some reason, they gave us this. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

U can hit EBRs but 99% of the time it will result in a critical hit and thats the reason why they are way too overpowered. They are extremely fast, they are very agile, they cant be tracked aaaand on top of that they are hard to kill because of they are actually made out of wheels.

You should be proud being accused of cheating because it means that you are really good :)

@taugrim 5 жыл бұрын

I've been accused of cheating across multiple games. People will blame anything and everything aside from their own gameplay / build / spec when they lose. And cheating is for losers who lack confidence.

The tank is too fast for the servers. I've watched rounds go through the models and not register a hit.

These wheelchairs will kill the game, you can't shoot them as they don't even render within the game engine. Also for some reason they bounce shells they have no right in bouncing according to the game mechanics

@sethsherlock9694 5 жыл бұрын

Admittedly I have seen some stuff that should be autopenned due to overmatch bouncing. Might be that the model has spaced armor ala the Sheridan that looks like hull but is just ghost plating.

@taugrim 5 жыл бұрын

Also the wheels are bigger than the hulls, esp on the EBR 75, EBR 90, and EBR 105. Low shots may pass through the wheels and not contact the hull.

The Lynx 6x6 is slightly over-performing / over-powered IMO, but not grossly so. It has a great gun and excellent mobility, but the view range and size are limiting factors. I have played the EBR 90 for 60 battles, and here's what I've concluded: 1. it is extremely fast (obviously) 2. it enables drivers to get away with stupid stuff (yolo scouting) 3. it punishes less-skilled opponents in tracked lights who get spotted in the open by the wheeled vehicle, and those tracked lights get rekt because they're in bad positions The EBR 90 gun is underwhelming for its tier and the gun has poor depression, but aside from that the gun is very, very effective. According to the tank curves the EBR 90 provides ~3.5 percentage point lift to win rate, which shows that it is definitely over-performing / over-powered in it's current state. That's my honest opinion.
