Yeti's Lair Event

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
James had forgotten to take off his costume after the role-playing festival, scaring his friends witless. Turns out, the cave he found is not just the Yeti's lair, but a half-ruined mine! Here and there, the edges of containers can be seen under the rubble. There must be something valuable inside them!



You'll have to work hard to dig it all up. How fortunate that Hugh always has an extendable Pickaxe with him, and the Ranger's trunk is filled with a year's supply of Candy Bars. Go for it!

[h2]How Can I Get Treasure from the Yeti's Lair?[/h2]

With the help of Pickaxes and Candy Bars! You'll receive Pickaxes for your first 100 victories in Tier IV–X vehicles, while mastery badges earned in Tier IV–X tanks will bring you Candy Bars. You'll be able to get even more Candy Bars in exchange for XP and Credit boosters, as well as certificates for Premium Account, on the event screen.

Treasure awaits!

[h2]So What is the Treasure?[/h2]

Get ready! For the start, check out the list: Premium Account, Cooldown boosters, a tank, stunning camos, and a Yeti Container.

Rating Battles in July

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
A new month brings new challenges to Rating Battles, along with important changes to rating calculations. From July 5 to July 31, join the fight to get a camouflage, gold, an avatar, parts of the certificate for the Lorraine Fearless, and a hot spot amongst the top ten players!



[h2]Changes to Rating Calculations[/h2]

In February, we added the possibility of earning rating points even if you were defeated. We closely monitored the results of battles after this innovation took place to make sure everything worked correctly.

Having processed these results, we found that quite often members of the losing team would receive more rating points than the winners. To avoid this in the future, we decided to reduce the number of rating points that players in the losing team could earn by 30%.

[h2]Battle Schedule for July[/h2]
  • CIS: July 5 to August 1, 1:00 (MSK)
  • Europe: July 5 to August 1, 1:59 (CEST)
  • North America: July 5 to July 31, 16:59 (PT) / 19:59 (ET)

July Parade

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
James knew this day would be a turning point in his career. He'd been taking photos since he was a kid, but today would be different, as now he was a real reporter! He'd taken his best shots for the Blitztown Star. They'd be a huge success for the newspaper, and he'd enjoy fame and fortune. And then, who knows, maybe he'd move to the big city and work for the New Bay Daily? Oh, that would be awesome! Hopefully, he wouldn't run out of film.



Happy citizens, bright flags fluttering in the breeze, the vehicle parade—nothing got past James' camera unnoticed. Then suddenly—familiar faces! His best friends, Ashley, Billy, and Hugh, invited him to go for a hike. They had important work to do: testing the new tank, the Ranger, in the wilderness! And maybe they'd even find the Yeti! It was an adventure not to be missed! James and his friends agreed to meet later at the entrance to the National Park as he needed to get back to photographing the festivities. Well, the best shots were still to come!
[h2]Rewards for Winners[/h2]
From June 30 to July 7, win in Tier IV–X vehicles. For each of your first 5 victories of the day, you'll get 3 Rollfilms. For a victorious battle to be counted, you need to score a certain amount of XP without Premium Account, boosters, or other modifiers:
  • 250 in Tier IV–V vehicles
  • 350 in Tier VI vehicles
  • in Tier VII vehicles
  • in Tier VIII vehicles
  • in Tier IX vehicles
  • in Tier X vehicles
Attempts to score a victory accumulate for days missed. So, if time allows, you can complete the event in one day.

Complete event stages using Rollfilms and get rewards: Premium Account, collectible items, Combat XP and Gold boosters, x3 XP certificates, and the American Eagle attachment!
[h3]For Collectors and Completionists[/h3]
At Stages 3 and 8, you'll receive collectible items. The first item is a camera. According to the inscription, it belongs to James. The second item is a photograph of the most interesting tank for miles around, the T77, for the front page of the Blitztown Star. You can keep each collectible item as a souvenir or exchange it for 2,000 Free XP.
[h3]Watch the Birdie![/h3]
At Stage 9, you'll get the beautiful American Eagle attachment which can be installed on most American tanks. Feel its power, strength, and limitless freedom!



[h2]Parade Schedule[/h2]
  • CIS: June 30, 8:00 (MSK) to July 7, 8:00 (MSK)
  • Europe: June 30, 14:00 (CEST) to July 7, 14:00 (CEST)
