The Assembly Shop returns with a new vehicle: the Durendal, a Tier X French support medium with exceptional mobility and quick two-shell bursts.

Invest the resources you choose to fill the assembly bar to 100%, and claim the vehicle with the numbered "Intesa" 3D style while supplies last.

The Durendal: Fast Support Medium

The Durendal is not a medium tank that waits for the fight to come to it. This Tier X French support vehicle is built to create openings, appear where the enemy line is weakest, and leave before the return fire arrives.
It is fast and dangerous, but not forgiving. The Durendal rewards players who read the battle, choose short engagements, and avoid armor-first trades.

Gameplay Tips for Success

  • Play the second line. Support active flanks without being the first spotted.

  • Relocate early. Change angles when a flank slows down or enemies focus on you.

  • Think like a raider. Borrow a Bourrasque-like rhythm. Appear from unexpected angles, strike quickly, relocate, and repeat before the enemy can adjust.

  • Recommended equipment. Prioritize gun handling and vision. Vertical Stabilizer, Improved Aiming, and Coated Optics are safe choices; use Improved Rotation Mechanism or Turbocharger for a more flexible build.

Firepower

  • The unique autoloader delivers 700 HP in 0.5 s with a quick two-shell burst.
  • The full four-shell clip offers 1,400 HP of potential damage.
  • It's best used when enemies are reloading, distracted, or caught away from cover.

Survivability

  • A thin hull and 1,800 HP make careless trades risky.
  • The turret and 9° of gun depression can help in selected hull-down positions.
  • The tank survives by using terrain, timing, vision, and clean exits.

Mobility

  • A 60 km/h top speed and 27.1 h.p./t specific power.
  • The Durendal is one of the fastest medium tanks, even without Turbocharger.
  • It's strong at changing flanks and creating pressure from unexpected angles.
