Which Perks to level up in WoT?

World of Tanks is a structured team-based online shooter game themed around the combative events of the 20th century.

The World of Tanks game presents a sophisticated leveling-up system for crew skills and competencies. This system lets players boost their tank's attributes.

In the World of Tanks enthusiasts' community, crew skills are conventionally referred to as "perks".

Beginners often find themselves at a loss over which 'perks' to level up for the crew in World of Tanks, depending on the range of their machinery.

What are "perks" in WoT?

In WoT, "perks" refer to additional skills and capabilities of the crew members that can be learned after mastering their first specializations.

Crew "perks" in WoT enhance a tank's specifications and boost a player's chance of winning a battle.

Skills in World of Tanks can be learned sequentially. To master each subsequent skill, twice the experience is required compared to the previous one.

WoT skills can be categorized as team or individual skills. On average, a tank crew masters 3 skills. The first ones can be learned by the whole team and are beneficial if each crew member acquires these “perks”. The other "perks" are exclusive to tankers of specific specializations.

It's vital for players to ascertain which "perks" to prioritize in WoT.

 

"Crew Perks" for LT - Light Tanks

Light tanks serve as the primary scouts for the team. Their initial task is to highlight targets for allies.

Light tanks are positioned on the front line of battle, illuminating enemies with their expansive vision radius and impressive camouflage capabilities.

The selection of crew 'perks' for light tanks enhances aspects like range of vision, camouflage, speed, and maneuverability.

Seasoned players prioritize the following skills when fostering their crew in World of Tanks on light tanks:

  • 'Camouflage' reduces the visibility of the combat vehicle, beneficial to all team members by boosting the parameter by 80%;
  • 'Brothers in Arms' increases the crew's basic profession knowledge by 5%;
  • 'Eagle Eye' extends the viewing range by 2%;

Previously, players on light tanks honed the commander skill 'Sixth Sense', which allowed the tanks' position detection by enemies. Following the WoT update in Fall 2022, this ability is now a default for commanders.
