World of Tanks – Tier V Light Tanks Initial Stats
3 min readHello everyone,
It’s now time for the Tier V Light Tanks get balanced in preparation of the branches extension. Remember that together with the introduction of Tier X LTs all light tanks will get regular matchmaking. This means that Tier V lights will no longer fight against Tier VIII vehicles.
Please keep in mind that this is a preliminary set of features planned for future updates. The Supertest happens at the early stages of development – and involves checking the changes of a future updates and searching for the most critical issues before further stages of testing.
Major changes to Tier V lights include:
- French tank AMX ELC bis got a 360 degrees traversable turret. The main gun for this tank will be 75-mm gun.
- American light tanks will get some reinforcements: The M7 will become a valid scout.
- The German “Leopard” will stand out with its two guns.

read it here first. how do you get this information out so quick?. thanks again
so the scouts will rape everything on their tier… gg wargaming
I don’t think so. If you compare the m7 to the m4 Sherman, the Sherman beats it in a 1v1 based on the gun alone. M7 wins on mobility though. Seems fair to me.
Goodbye ELC
Well with this new info thats two of my favourite light tank getttng nerfed into the ground(wz 131 and elc) .
Ps for wg. Go **** yourselves up the *** with the biggest russian howitzer you can find
Just that good 😛
Not really. Low HP and no armour. Loads of tanks at tier 5 can deal with them very easily
That 75mm is dog****, I hope 2-pdr is still an option.
Then again, I don’t give a ****, if this **** hits live server, I’m done.
Well the M7 finally admitting that it is a light is good
ELC Amx loses 90 MM gun and gets traversible turret. Very bad deal. It will be ****. Also M7 becomes light tank? Dunno how to feel about this.
The 5cm is gonna get buffed Kreygasm
That removal of the 90mm tho is a bit meh,they could just nerf the gun handling more,it needs skill to pull over the tricks good ELC drivers do.
>ELC without a 90 mm
But… what
It was unhistorical in the first place, because the real thing only fired HE and HEAT
And now, they are going to… remove the historical gun?
I sweat that little tank has been my reason to coming back to wot many times when i wanted to leave and i’ve had so much fun with it
idk if i will stay if they do that to it. I mean, it had a playstyle so unlike any other tank, but now it will be like any other light instead.
US M7 is a MT, not Light
It will become a Light Tank when they implement the LT changes.
