Behind every furious final attack and every victorious shot there is always a long history of persistent struggle. Hundreds of battles and defeated enemies, combat skills matrixed into muscle memory, and reliable brothers-in-arms. All these will be waiting for you from 5 to 18 May during the Winners’ Time in-game event. Challenge yourself!
You will have the most stunning and formidable IS-6!
What could be more striking than the IS-6? Only the IS-6 in the “Legend of Battles” legendary camouflage. And even more striking is the IS-6 with the Pioneer attachment mounted.
An attachment is a new option in the Appearance menu. It will not provide you combat bonuses, but it will mount additional elements on your vehicle, making your vehicle look fully-equipped and armed to the teeth. For now, an attachment is available for the IS-6 only—be the first to try out this feature!
The IS-6 is one of the most popular Premium tanks in the game. Its sloped armor serves its commander well by deflecting enemy shells and absorbing damage, and its Premium status brings good credit earnings. You can choose between two guns: both of them deal the same damage, but differ in their rate of fire and penetration.
The IS-6 can also be purchased in the U.S.S.R. Tech Tree for 7,600 gold. But the Winners’ Time event allows you to get this tank for free or at a huge discount. For those of you who already have the IS-6, it will be easier to earn the legendary camouflage and Pioneer attachment!
And more rewards
Upon completing the main and additional stages of Winners’ Time, you will receive:
- IS-6, along with a Garage slot
- Pioneer attachment
- “Legend of Battles” legendary camouflage
- 1 day of Premium account
- a certificate for 1 hour of Premium Account
- 50 Special Cooldown boosters
- 80 Standard Free XP boosters
- 120 Standard Combat XP boosters
- 100 Standard Crew XP boosters
- 30,000 Free XP
- 60 parts of the certificate for 100 gold
- 150,000 credits
If you already have the IS-6 in your Garage, you will receive 1,950,000 credits and a Garage slot as compensation. If you already have the “Legend of Battles” camouflage, you will receive 568,000 credits as compensation.
When can I start?
Winners’ Time is divided into two phases. The first one will take place from 5 to 14 May. During this time, you will be able to earn special items and use them to complete stages of the in-game event. The second phase will last from 14 to 18 May. During this period, you will be able to complete stages using gold only. The precise schedule for your region is below:
- CIS: first phase—from 5 May 12:00 (MSK) to 14 May 12:00 (MSK). The event will end on 18 May at 12:00 (MSK).
- Asia: first phase—from 5 May 17:00 (UTC+8) to 14 May 17:00 (UTC+8). The event will end on 18 May at 17:00 (UTC+8).
- North America: first phase—from 5 May 2:00 (PT), 5:00 (ET) to 14 May 2:00 (PT), 5:00 (ET). The event will end on 18 May at 2:00 (PT), 5:00 (ET).
- Europe: first phase—from 5 May 11:00 (CEST) to 14 May 11:00 (CEST). The event will end on 18 May at 11:00 (CEST).
How can I participate?
Upon tapping the event button in the Garage, you will see two series of stages. One of them leads you to the IS-6, the other—to the Pioneer attachment and the “Legend of Battles” legendary camouflage (they are added to your account without a tank, but become available after you have received it). To unlock stages and get prizes, earn Pins and Emblems.
Don’t want to submerge yourself in the details? Learn all the conditions in 30 seconds!
Earn Combat XP, complete missions, and open bonus containers—you will be rewarded with Pins. Unlock stages of the “lower” series using Pins and you will get the IS-6 at the end. Pins drop without limitations during the main phase of the event: if you play a lot, you will get the tank for free. In the third stage of the “lower” series, you will get a Ticket. This is your entry to the special task of 30 battles. Emblems will be accrued to your account for the best ten battles out of thirty. Use them to unlock stages of the “upper” series and get the camouflage and attachment.
What is the fastest way to complete Winners’ Time? Start immediately on 5 May and don’t miss a single day. Open all bonus containers and complete all missions as soon as they refresh. Premium Account will bring you more Pins. Grab a Tier IX or X vehicle and head off to rating battles, ideally as a member of the Platinum or Diamond League—it’s the best way to earn more Pins and Emblems. The Gold League will do as well, but it will only give you a bonus for the vehicle tier. If you are in the Silver or Bronze League for now, complete stages in regular battles—and select the tank that you’re most effective with!
Pins
If your goal is the IS-6, you will need Pins. To get them, complete daily missions, open bonus containers, and earn Combat Experience in regular, rating, or tournament battles.
- On average, you can earn 130 Pins for completing one mission.
- For every 100 Combat XP earned in a single battle you will receive 10 Pins. Premium Account bonus and other bonuses are not applied.
- The requirement for the Combat XP amount is strict. If you earned 99 Combat XP, you will receive no Pins. If you earned 199 Combat XP, you will receive 10 Pins.
- If you have Premium Account active, you will receive 15 Pins for every 100 Combat XP.
- In rating battles, the system of multipliers is applied depending on your league.
Emblems
Emblems are required to pass the series with the legendary camouflage and attachment rewards. To earn Emblems:
- First complete the third stage with the Ticket icon and get a Ticket.
- Upon the receipt of the Ticket, fight the next 30 battles in Tier V-X vehicles. Regular, tournament, and rating battles are counted.
- The system uses the base Experience earned in every battle to estimate the number of Emblems that you should get. When you have played 30 battles, the system will select the TEN best results with the most Emblems earned and will add these Emblems to your account.
- 1 Combat XP earned in regular and tournament battles brings you 1 Emblem. In rating battles, the system of multipliers is applied depending on your league.
- Only base Combat XP is counted. Premium Account, first victory bonuses, and boosters have no effect on the number of Emblems.
- After a series of 30 battles ends, the Ticket is removed from your Storage. You can earn one Ticket during the event and fight only one series of 30 battles.
Important: as soon as the Ticket appears in your Storage, the next 30 battles in Tier V–X vehicles will be counted for the calculation of Emblems. So we advise you to complete the stage with the Ticket only when you are 100% ready to fight this series of battles and show your best performance. If you just want to “farm” some credits amidst the series of battles, you should do so in Tier I–IV vehicles—it is not very effective, but it will not affect the results.
Accrual of Pins and Emblems in rating battles
In rating battles, Pins and Emblems are calculated using the multiplier depending on your league and rating:
- 0.5—multiplier for the Bronze League, when the player has a rating of 0–999 points
- 0.6—multiplier for the Bronze League, when the player has a rating of 1,000–1,999 points
- 0.8—multiplier for the Silver League
- 1—multiplier for the Gold League
- 1.15—multiplier for the Platinum League
- 1.3—multiplier for the Diamond League
Example
You fought a battle in the Platinum League and earned 1,000 base Combat XP.
- The number of Emblems will be calculated as follows: 1,000 is multiplied by the 1.15 Platinum League multiplier. You get 1,000*1.15=1,150 Emblems.
- Now let’s calculate the number of Pins. For 1,000 Combat XP you should get 100 Pins. 100 Pins are multiplied by the same league multiplier of 1.15. We receive 100*1.15=115 Pins. With Premium Account, the result will also be multiplied by the Premium Account bonus of 1.5, and you will have 100*1.15*1.5=173 Pins.
No multipliers are applied to the Emblems earned in calibration battles: 1 Combat XP will bring you 1 Emblem. The number of Pins earned in calibration battles is influenced by Premium Account only.
Members of the Platinum and Diamond Leagues will earn more Emblems and Pins in rating battles. We reduced the multiplier for Silver and Bronze Leagues to avoid cases where players artificially reduce their ratings in order to earn additional Emblems/Pins in battles against weak opponents.
Prepare your tanks, check your guns, and load your shells: your time has come—Winners’ Time!
