Read on for some tips and tricks for World of Tanks Blitz!

When you first start off you’ll have to get used to either losing often or staying in the background. However, that’s just fine as you’ll earn credits and experience points, and free experience, which all can be used for tank upgrades and for purchasing new tanks. While you’re toiling through this period, practice your evasion skills. Sneak up on enemy tanks and shoot them in the back and sides to do maximum damage, as they are less heavily armored than the front.

Take cover, too, to obscure yourself from enemy sights. They will still see you due to sensors, but not as well, and their shots typically won’t do as much damage. Either engage with and kill one tank, or (preferably) practice hit and run strategies, weakening enemy tanks gradually and letting your teammates do the killing. The second one works in your benefit because if they win, you win.

Light tanks are fast with very little armor. Medium tanks are medium speed, medium armor. Heavy tanks are slow with heavy armor, meaning that they can take a lot of hits. Tank destroyers aren’t particularly good except for their cannons – they do MASSIVE amounts of damage to other tanks. Know the characteristics you are looking for out of a tank before you buy.

Experience is tank specific, but free experience can be applied to any tank. Both of these are earned out of normal battles, but if you want to earn free experience faster, go to the in app purchase store and you can spend 1 gold to convert 25 experience to 25 free experience. Plus, you can convert 1 gold to 250 credits if you want to purchase better tanks more quickly.

When you get killed, exit a battle early and then engage another tank in another battle. You’ll earn rewards when the battle ends, so don’t worry if you don’t see anything immediately. Instead, send in another tank and battle again while you are waiting for the rewards from the first battle to show up.
