Note: this is NOT OFFICIAL so some data could be off but i think all this is all the new tanks... All T8 arty will be T10... USA and French will get a new T9 so if you have the m40/43 or the lorr 51 finish your grind .. OBJ 212 and GW Tiger will become T9...

That's good news for me regarding the 212, I abandoned it at least a year ago and was afraid it would go to an 8 or 7. I'm not ready to pick it back up yet but didn't want to get demoted and have several more to grind to get to a top tier arty piece.

The credit costs for a top tier arty will probably raise to be more in line with other tier 10's, correct?

date for release?

8.6 ain't even on the test servers in NA yet

Think its funny that the Bat Chat arty is only being upgraded to tier 9 instead of tier 10. So its not all tier 8 artys that are being tier 10. But maybe Wargaming have some tricks up their sleve

the B.Chat155 is being upgraded to 10...the B.Chat155 55 is a new arty

Ouch. If those accuracy ratings are indicative of anything my poor T92 will never damage anything in the game again, and if it does I will know I should have bought a lotto ticket instead of clicking the mouse.
