Equipment

Equipment is a category of additional systems, parts, and components that can improve a vehicle's combat characteristics and reduce its weaknesses.

 
 

Standard Equipment

This basic type of equipment can be purchased with the in-game currency: credits. It can also be awarded for certain achievements and during events. It is divided into several classes and categories.

  • Equipment Classes
  • Equipment and Slot Categories

Standard equipment is divided into three classes, depending on its cost and the vehicle tier on which it can be mounted. The higher the equipment class, the higher the cost. A vehicle's tier largely determines the class of equipment that can be mounted on it:

  • Tier II–IV vehicles, as well as some Tier V+ vehicles, allow Class 3 equipment to be mounted.
  • Tier V–VII vehicles, as well as some Tier VIII+ vehicles—Class 2 equipment.
  • Tier VIII–X vehicles—Class 1 equipment.

The exceptions are Camouflage Net and Spall Liner.

Camouflage Net is available in two variations: Class 3 can be mounted on Tier II–IV vehicles, while Class 2 can be mounted on Tier V–X vehicles.

Spall Liner does not have classes. Instead, four different versions are available, each suitable for certain vehicle types and tiers, as follows:

  • Light: Tier V–X light tanks, as well as light tank destroyers or SPGs based on an LT chassis.
  • Medium: Tier V–VII heavy tanks, as well as Tier V–X medium tanks and medium tank destroyers or SPGs on an MT chassis.
  • Heavy: Tier VIII–X heavy tanks, as well as tank destroyers or SPGs under 75 tons.
  • Superheavy: Tier VIII–X heavy tanks, as well as tank destroyers or SPGs weighing 75 tons or more.

In addition to classes, standard equipment is divided into the following four categories, each of which improves one of the vehicle's characteristics:

Firepower
Survivability
Mobility
Scouting

Each type of standard equipment is assigned to the category that it affects.

This does not include Improved Rotation Mechanism, which corresponds to two categories (Firepower and Mobility), and Improved Ventilation, which corresponds to all four.

Equipment is placed in slots that become available starting from Tier II vehicles. The number of available slots depends on the vehicle's tier.

Starting from Tier VI, a specific category is assigned to the first slot based on the vehicle type. If the equipment's category corresponds to the category of the slot in which it is placed, the equipment provides an increased bonus to your vehicle. If the categories don't match or the slot doesn't have a category, the unit of equipment provides its standard effect.

Light tanks
Scouting
Medium tanks
Mobility
Heavy tanks
Survivability
Tank destroyers, SPGs
Firepower

Select an equipment category tab to see more details about the effect and cost of certain equipment. In the equipment description, the first value is the standard effect and the second value is the increased effect (when the equipment and slot categories match).

Improved Equipment

This valuable equipment can be purchased with bonds, and its characteristics are better than those of standard equipment—even when the latter has been placed in the appropriate slot. As a downside, improved equipment is not tied to any of the four equipment categories, meaning that it will not receive any additional bonuses from being placed in a specialized slot.

Experimental Equipment

This equipment type combines two or more characteristics of the other types of equipment in the game. Experimental Equipment can be obtained by completing combat missions, participating in certain events. While previously unavailable for purchase, players can now occasionally acquire Experimental Equipment in bundles. This equipment cannot be destroyed, but it can be disassembled for free. In return, you will receive components that can be used to upgrade or demount it.

  • Experimental Equipment has both main and additional bonuses.
    • The main bonus is the parameter that is displayed first in the description. If this is, for example, a bonus from Turbocharger, you cannot mount more of the same type of equipment on the vehicle.
    • An additional bonus can be received from other types of equipment (one or more) or from various mechanics. The additional bonus cannot include the effect of the equipment from which it was taken (e.g., the full restoration of suspension durability after repairs from Improved Hardening).
  • Experimental Equipment has special requirements for mounting.
    • Experimental Equipment that combines bonuses from two types of equipment will only work on vehicles on which both types of equipment can be mounted. For example, Experimental Equipment with the Gun Rammer bonus (main or additional) cannot be mounted on vehicles with autoloader or autoreloader guns.
    • Experimental Equipment that combines the bonuses of three or more types of equipment, gets bonuses unrelated to equipment, or has an unusual distribution of bonuses will have its own conditions for mounting.
  • Experimental Equipment does not receive an additional bonus from its slot, regardless of its Upgrade Level.
  • Experimental Equipment is not divided into classes (i.e., the same unit can be mounted on a Tier II or Tier IX vehicle if they meet its requirements).
  • For any piece of Experimental Equipment:
    • Its set of characteristics will not change when the Upgrade Level is increased.
    • With each new Upgrade Level, the values of one or several characteristics may increase, but they will never decrease.

  • Tier III is improved equipment (which is purchased for bonds).

An upgraded unit of unmounted Experimental Equipment will not be mounted on a vehicle automatically. Don't forget to mount it yourself before battle!

Disassembling Equipment

Experimental Equipment is the only type of equipment that can be disassembled. Disassembling equipment gives you components. The exact number you will receive depends on the upgrade level of the disassembled gear, as per the table below:

Equipment Components Acquired from Disassembly
Level I Level II Level III
Fire-Control System 100 400 1,600
Mobility Improvement System 100 400 1,600
Survival Improvement Suite 100 400 1,600

Equipment Demounting

All equipment types can be demounted:

  • Standard and Bounty Equipment — for gold or with a Demounting Kit;
  • Improved equipment — for bonds;
  • Experimental Equipment — for gold or with a Demounting Kit, and then for components.

Demounting Kit

Demounting Kits allow you to demount one piece of equipment for free. Kits are spent upon activation and can be obtained as rewards for completing Daily Missions.

Received or purchased Demounting Kits are permanently stored in the Depot. You can view your available Demounting Kits via the Consumables tab in the Stock section.

Please note that Demounting Kits cannot be sold.

To demount your equipment with a Demounting Kit, do the following:

  1. In your Garage, select the vehicle from which you want to demount equipment, then click the necessary equipment slot.
  2. Click (Demount).
  3. In the confirmation window, select Demounting Kit, and then Demount.

One Demounting Kit will be spent, and the demounted equipment will be sent to the Depot. You can mount the demounted equipment on another vehicle.

The demounting requirements for Experimental Equipment depend on its upgrade level. The amount of resources required is as follows:

  • Level I: 1 Demounting Kit or 10

  • Level II: 50 components

  • Level III: 100 components
