The World Of Tanks E-50 Medium Tank – General
Tech Tree: German
Tier: IX
Class: Medium Tank
Exterior: Two tone “Winter” 1941 – 43 (225 gold)
Overview
Prior to the release of version 7.5, the E-50 was the highest tier German medium tank, at tier IX. It was the first top tier vehicle I ever got and used it to earn free exp whilst working on other tier vehicles when I achieved Elite status with it. Playing with it, I found that the ammo rack seemed to receive a lot of damage so mounted the wet ammo rack equipment.
Generally I found this vehicle to be the best balance of hit points, armour, firepower and mobility when comparing it to my T-54 and M46 Patton. I defiantly believe after playing my other mediums, that the decision to get this medium first was the right choice.
Though this is my most played vehicle, compared to the other tier IX mediums, on average I have achieved the most number of medals with this vehicle and had the most fun as it feels like the most “solid” medium I have when playing it.
