The World Of Tanks Lowe Heavy Tank – General

Many people in the World Of Tanks community have a negative attitude about premium tanks, possibly because they feel that you are lazy by buying a higher tier tank rather than working through the Tech Tree or that you have paid for a tank.

But really it’s a great investment and must have for a number of reasons …

1. All experience points you earn is just like when you achieve an elite status, it can be converted into free experience for researching other vehicles on the tech tree.
2. Unlike tech tree vehicles that when you loose a match, you can sometimes not earn enough credits to cover your repairs and re-supply your ammunition, so you run at a loss, this has never happened to me using a premium tank.
3. Its a credit machine maker! You earn more credits in battles using it, I have exceeded 100,000 credits in a single match with my Lowe.
4. it’s a great training tool for learning how to play with higher tier tech tree tanks.
5. WOT allow you x2 exp on your first match each day. I have five premium tanks and they earn me almost 10,000 exp that can be converted to free exp for researching on the tech tree and during promotion periods, this x2 can be x5 instead and I can earn almost 25,000 exp!!

Final thoughts on the Tier VIII Lowe

Well I think my Service Record explains how much I love playing this vehicle, of the almost 90 odd vehicles I have played in the game, my Lowe has the second highest number of battles I have played in! and I think it has to be the best balanced tank (firepower vs. mobility vs. protection) I have used in the game. In emergency situations where I have gone up against tier X (10) vehicles, the Lowe has been able to standard its ground and is very accurate at long ranges.
