World of Tanks: The Last Waffenträger
9 min readLong ago, Waffenträgers—colossal German Tier X tank destroyers with high-calibre autoloaders—roamed the battlefields of World of Tanks. Some believed they were gone forever, but in fact, a single one remains, and soon it will return with even more power. From September 28 through October 12, fight in The Last Waffenträger. Take on the empowered legendary vehicle as part of a seven-strong team of modernized T-55 tanks to earn the right to command the Waffenträger and fight like the final boss!
Special Footlockers
There are also Special Footlockers available in the Premium Shop during the event, both separately and as part of special bundles. Instead of holding a Collection item, Special Footlockers may contain one of sixteen Tier VIII Premium vehicles, including the T77, a brand-new American autoloader heavy tank. Additionally, Special Footlockers are guaranteed to hold in-game goodies.
Special footlockers will be obtainable until October 11 at 23:59 CEST (UTC+2) and will auto-open on October 12 at 07:00 CEST (UTC+2). Additionally, the event interface will be removed on October 12 at 07:00 CEST (UTC+2) so you will have this time period to see what you have received.
The Reopen Mechanic
Like Harriers’ and Engineer’s Footlockers, Special Footlockers feature the newly introduced Reopen mechanic: you can “reroll” their contents, whereby the current contents is permanently replaced unless you choose to “reroll” again.
You’re guaranteed to receive 100 Gold when you open a Special Footlocker for the first time. Please note that 100 Gold is added to your account only once, and won’t apply if you reopen the same Special Footlocker for the second, third, etc. time.
Harriers’ and Engineer’s Footlockers can be reopened up to 3 times for Credits.
- For Harriers’ Footlockers, the first reopening costs 25,000, the second 50,000, and the third 100,000 Credits.
- For Engineer’s Footlockers, the respective costs are 50,000, 100,000, and 250,000 Credits.
Special Footlockers can be reopened up to 5 times for Gold.
- 100 for the first time, 250 for the second, and 500 for each of the rest.

Harriers’ Footlockers
Completing Harriers’ missions will give you Keys that allow you to play as the Waffenträger auf E 110, as well as Harriers’ Footlockers. They may contain Collection items—event-themed vehicle customization elements that will stay on your account after the event ends. These include styles, camos, emblems, decals, inscriptions, and T-55 Thunderbolt crew skins. Also, Harriers’ Footlockers contain in-game goodies of one of several types. If you would like a reward of a different type, you can Reopen the Footlocker using credits (up to three times total).
As all Collection items are unique (each one will drop just once), the Reopen option will be blocked when you receive a Collection item from a Harriers’ Footlocker.
Engineer’s Footlockers
Completing Engineer’s missions will earn you Engineer’s Footlockers with Engineer’s Collection Items: styles, camos, emblems, decals, inscriptions, and the von Krieger crew member skin. Also, Engineer’s Footlockers contain in-game goodies of one of several types. If you would like a reward of a different type, you can Reopen the Footlocker using credits (up to three times total).

The Collections
Each Harriers’ or Engineer’s Collection item adds +1 to the event’s main progression meter. Every Collection item in both Collections is unique (so no need to Reopen Footlockers for them). Reaching certain milestones on the main progression meter will yield you prizes (including Keys) with the final reward being 3,000 bonds.

The Special Footlockers are not that great of a deal. I opened 20 of them, re-opened them the maximum number of times and did not receive a vehicle.
