[UPDATE] Onslaught: Season of the Crimson Dragon Arrives!

Mid-Season Update: Balance Adjustments

Commanders!

Onslaught: Season of the Crimson Dragon is getting minor mid-season tweaks to keep the competitive spirit going. These changes aim to refine balance and ensure fierce battles. Adapt your strategies and keep pushing forward!

One for All (Breakthrough Heavy Tanks)

After the 60TP adjustments that took place last winter, breakthrough heavy tanks have had fairly limited usage, especially at the top ranks. We would prefer to see more of them in battles, and not only as "first tempo-engagers."

The bonus to crew efficiency has been increased from 4/7/10% to 5.5/9/13%.

Bounty Hunter (Versatile Heavy Tanks)

Despite the changes made in the Azure Dragon mid-season update, it appears that versatile heavy tanks still lack some of the efficiency they need to be in demand. This should help them a bit.

HP restored for each enemy vehicle damaged has been increased from 40/70/100 to 50/80/110.
The bonus to reload speed for each enemy vehicle damaged has been increased from 4% to 5.5%.

Fury (Assault Medium Tanks)

Assault medium tanks have been quite a popular option, and in some cases even a mandatory one, since the beginning of the Year of the Dragon due to great DPM and the low Skill cooldown, giving benefits even without Skill resets. Both parameters have been adjusted to make some space for other damage-focused tanks.

The bonus to reload speed was reduced from 25/30/35% to 25/27.5/30%.
The Role Skill's cooldown has been increased from 3 to 5 s.

Inspiring (Versatile Medium Tanks)

The Object 140 currently dominates among versatile medium tanks and, at the same time, the current Skill cooldown provides an opportunity to constantly inspire allies with just a single tank. We changed the Prestige Points required to charge Level 2 and 3 to be more suitable for 390+ alpha tanks, while the increased Skill cooldown should favor two-Inspire-per-team compositions a bit more.

The number of Prestige Points required to level up the Skill charge has been increased by 0/5.5/11.5%.
The Role Skill's cooldown has been increased from 3 to 7 s.

What's New?

The Season of the Crimson Dragon brings several changes designed to enhance your competitive experience. Here's what awaits you:

Bond Shop Update

The Onslaught Shop now features a brand-new Tier IX light tank, the LTC II, along with two new pieces of improved equipment: the Telescopic Observation System and the Tactical Concealment Net. The Improved Final Drive has been removed from the Onslaught Shop and will become available in the regular in-game Store after its next update.

New Vehicles

Now, you can go into battle in the menacing X 114 SP2 . Keep in mind that you can purchase it for your vehicle collection when you reach the Gold rank.

Plus, three new Tier X rental vehicles—copies of existing Tech Tree tanks—are available for this season with a free Garage slot and crews. These are temporary rental versions, and any XP earned in them cannot be used for Tech Tree progression:

The newly released Ares 90 is restricted in Onslaught.

Sound Physics Simulation Expands to Onslaught

The new sound physics system introduced in Update 2.1 and based on map geometry has been expanded to select Onslaught maps (Ensk, Cliff, Pilsen, Oyster Bay, Siegfried Line, Himmelsdorf, Murovanka, Safe Haven, Airfield, and Ruinberg).

Map Updates

New Map: Erlenberg joins the Onslaught map roster.
Excluded Map: Klondike is out.
Reworked Maps: Studzianki, Mines, Oyster Bay, Murovanka, Sand River, and Siegfried Line have undergone various balance adjustments.

Onslaught maps are distinct from their Random Battle counterparts. They feature updated layouts and strategies, providing a refreshed gameplay experience and new tactical opportunities. Discover more details in the Onslaught Map Guide.

Keep Fighting for the Ashbringer!

The race for the Ashbringer continues! This Tier X Polish heavy tank—crafted as a stunning replica of the X 60TP Lewandowskiego —comes with a cool progressive 3D style and a unique crew with enough XP to train three additional perks. Collect nine or more Onslaught Colors throughout the annual cycle for your chance to earn this exceptional vehicle and other valuable rewards.

At the end of the Year of the Dragon, you will unlock up to four different versions of the Ashbringer's 3D style—Silver, Gold, Champion, or Legend—based on how many Colors you have collected. All lower-tier styles will also be unlocked accordingly. Once you have unlocked them, you can freely switch between them at any time, even after every battle.
