M46 Patton Review/Guide, Working Terrain to Your Advantage
I review the M46 Patton, a tier 9 American medium tank in World of Tanks (WoT), with replays of tier 10 Sand River and Mannerheim Line battles.
The M46 Patton combines superb DPM/alpha with very strong hull-down capabilities. Look no further for the quintessential "American comfort" experience.
Strengths and Weaknesses
+ Superb gun depression (-10)
+ Superb DPM (2601 base)
+ Superb view range (410)
+ Excellent turret protection
+ Excellent silver ammo alpha (390)
+ Excellent gun handling
- Low silver ammo penetration (218)
- Limited top speed (48)
- Mediocre agility
- Soft hull armor (~135mm effective)
- Large profile
- Mediocre camouflage (~22 with Camo crew)
Recommended Equipment
1. Optics
2. Rammer
3. VStab
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.
