Stage 2: Construction of the Т-34E and IS-7 | From 3rd of August until 13th of August

Ressources and parts

In this stage you need to get Materials in battles to build the coveted vehicle. You can participate in this stage only after you have received the Т-34E blueprint.

Т-34E resources and rare parts

• Can be earned in random battles (except “Assault” mode) in ground vehicles of rank II-III.

IS-7 resources and rare parts

• Can be earned in random battles (except “Assault” mode) in ground vehicles of rank IV-VI which will apply only if the “IS-7 hull blueprint” is achieved.

• You will only receive the IS-7 turret blueprint after the final assembly of the T-34E together with a coupon for the T-34E.
• Resources and rare parts are given only if battle activity was 50% or higher in battle.

Vehicle assembly

If you have already received the blueprint and have enough “resources for assembling”, then you will be able to begin to build the vehicle in the workshop in several stages.

“Resources”

The base element is suitable for the assembly of T-34E or IS-7 parts depending on the rank of the battles played where it was received (for T-34E rank II-III, for IS-7 rank IV-VI).

(!) Can be sold on Market.

“Detail”

Will be created from resources of the corresponding vehicle. You need to choose what part you want to create.

(!) Can not be sold on Market.

“Rare part”

This part can not be created, but you can get it only in battle as with resources.

A rare part will be received by you in battles from the time you require them for assembly.

(!) Can be sold on Market

“Part of the tank”

Investigate the technical data of the tank you want to build, this may help you in choosing the correct recipe!

Creating a part of the tank is the most difficult process. To craft any of the parts you need to choose a craft recipe - and you to find the correct one! Don’t worry if you start crafting with the wrong recipe, you’ll get all your materials back. Some parts of the IS-7 can also be combined to obtain the final item.

Can not be sold on Market. Requires assembly time.

Using the Market during the accumulation of resources is completely unnecessary and you can easily collect them in the any battle.
