The Harriers

Harriers hunt with one core principle—pack behavior. The Blitzträger cannot be defeated single-handedly. Victory lies in coordination and cooperation with your teammates.

You will have the following four special vehicles to choose from in the event Garage:

• The Pojistka, a mid-range support vehicle
• The Resistor, a versatile multi-role tank
• The Thunderbolt, a slow tank with decent turret and frontal armor and a formidable gun
• The Foudre, a speedy tank with an autoloader that sacrifices armor and survivability for greater dynamics

Each of the four Harriers has a different strategy. Thunderbolt and Resistor focus on taking out groups of Sentinels quickly, while Foudre and Pojistka are better suited to engaging or distracting the Blitzträger.

Try them all and choose the one that suits you best.

How to Play

Defeating the Blitzträger is not easy—it's not only a battle against overwhelming odds, but also against time. Be sure to stay together with other Harriers to maximize your efficiency on the battlefield.

Take out Generators Don't engage the Blitzträger directly. Clear and overcharge the Generators first to bring down its shield.

Hunt the Sentinels You can clear out the Sentinels protecting Generators at any time—especially when the Blitzträger is licking its wounds. It's an investment for the future.

Seize the Moment Generators add battle time, but don't forget to deal as much damage as you can to the Blitzträger when they are down. You might not get another chance!

Plan Ahead Keep an eye on Hyperion's status. Stay on your toes and anticipate when and where the deadly superweapon will strike.

Become Stronger Overcharge Generators and collect Plasma to gain a considerable bonus to firepower. However, this bonus is reset on destruction, so survive as long as you can.

Watch the Time Destroy the sixth and final Generator to permanently disable the shield on the Blitzträgerwill and finish it off. But if the timer runs out with the Blitzträger still operational, Ermelinda wins.

The Harriers’ Missions

Completing the Harriers’ missions will reward you with Tokens to fill the event progression meter, as well as 2D Customization Items, Battle Pass Points, Harriers' Crate and a Key that allows you to play in the Blitzträger auf E 110. There are 3 unique Harriers missions for introduction in this event and 9 additional which will be available only after the completion of the introductory missions.

The second part of the Harriers' missions also rewards you with Tokens, 2D Customization Items, Battle Pass Points, Keys to play in the Blitzträger auf E 110 and Harriers' Crates. The missions will be updated only after you complete the previous mission in the slot but your progress won't be lost throughout the event and you will be able to complete all of them in different event days.

The Blitzträger auf E 110

To ride in the mighty Blitzträger auf E 110, you need a special Key. There are several ways to get them, as follows:

1. Complete a special mission in Random Battles (available once per account) to earn one Key. The mission will be available on September 19 at 06:00 (UTC+8) and will remain active until September 23 at 17:00 (UTC+8). You need to win five Random Battles in Tier IV–X vehicles and be among the top 5 on your team by XP earned.

2. Complete Harriers’ missions.
3. Reach certain milestones of the event’s main progression meter.

Keys will also be available as free gifts in bundles in the Premium Shop during the event.

How to Play

In the Blitzträger, you are the hunter as well as the hunted. Hiding won't save you—you need to protect your energy sources and fight together with your Sentinels. Remember that the Harrier Squad stands no chance against you while the Generators are active. This is the time to trap and prevent them accumulating too much Plasma. Take out their strongest first!

Protect Your Sentinels Sentinels are the health of your Generators. Protect all three Generators as long as possible to prevent the Harriers from gaining the upper hand.

Be Everywhere and Nowhere Change positions quickly! Don't let yourself get cornered without your shield.

Saving Grace Charge your superweapon, Hyperion, by causing damage to the Harriers. Unleash it to take out far-away enemies and protect your Generators on several fronts.

Stop Their Momentum Take down enemies to remove their Plasma charge and send them into respawn. Go for the mightiest enemy first!

Not Alone Anymore Your daughter Ermelinda will support you on the battlefield in her Eos 1. Either split up or stay together in the right moments to maximize your potential. By using Teleportation you can group up, save her, or readjust her patrol.

The Engineer’s Missions

Completing the Engineer’s mission will earn you Tokens, both Engineer’s and Harriers' Crates, Bonds, Credits, and 2D Customization Items.

The Blitzträger auf E 220: A Rare-Yet-Coveted Opponent

The Blitzträger auf E 220 has the same stats as the E 110, but it features a unique camouflage pattern so you can easily identify it. This is a vehicle that only certain Wargaming employees and favorite content creators can unlock. You may encounter it on certain special days.

If you and your team manage to defeat the E 220, all members of your team will receive one Engineer's Crate. Check out the dedicated article for additional information about the big E 220 hunt, including a list of participating content creators and prime hunting times!

Rush Into Random Battles in the Iconic Waffenträger auf E 100!

Complete special missions in the event battles to earn Tokens that will gradually fill the Progression meter. The Progression system consists of 20 Stages, and you need 10 Tokens to complete each Progression Stage. On the progression screen, you will see how many Tokens you still have to earn to complete the Stage and grab the reward.

Reaching each new Stage awards you valuable in-game items, including the following:

• Two unique crew members with exclusive voiceovers upon completion of the 10th and 19th Progression Stages (one crew member of your choice and Max von Krieger)
• Battle Pass Points
• The Engineer’s and Harriers’ Crates
• Bonds
• Keys to play in the Blitzträger auf E 110
• Credits
• Components
• Days of WoT Premium Account

But most importantly, upon completion of the final 20th Stage, you will have the opportunity to rent the legendary Waffenträger auf E 100 for five Random Battles!

You will receive the very iconic and incredibly powerful Waffenträger auf E 100, a Tier X German tank destroyer that was removed from the game in 2016. If you have previously played in this formidable predator, your daily statistics for this vehicle will be recorded in all Random Battles. You can also obtain additional Waffenträger battles as loot from the Engineer's Crate with a certain drop rate.

Platoons with the Waffenträger auf E 100 are not allowed.

Additional Daily Missions

Three additional daily missions will be available to those who have completed all 20 Stages of the event’s progression. You can complete these missions playing both as the Engineer or as a part of the Harriers squad and they will award you a Harriers' Crate, Battle Pass Points, Credits, 2D Customization Items, and a Key to play in the Blitzträger auf E 110.

Crates and Rewards

For completing event missions and certain Progression Stages, as well as for defeating the rare Blitzträger auf E 220, you will receive Harriers' and Engineer's Crates. You can earn the Harriers’ Crates for completing event missions and Progression milestones while playing in Harrier Squad vehicles. They will drop a guaranteed prize from the list below:

• Credits
• Personal Reserves
• Days of WoT Premium Account
• Consumables
• Demounting Kits

Plus, you have a chance to get customization items.

By completing the missions while playing in the Blitzträger auf E 110, you earn the Engineer’s Crates.

You can also get the Engineer's Crates upon completing certain progression milestones, as well as for free with each special bundle in the Premium Shop.

Upon each activation, the Engineer's Crate may bring you in-game items from four different categories, each of which has its own drop rate. First, you will receive an item from the following list:

• Credits
• Personal Reserves
• Days of WoT Premium Account
• Crew Books and Free XP
• Special 2D "Seek & Destroy" and "Engineer's Toolkit" styles

 If Lady Luck's on your side, you also have a 5% chance to get an imposing  3D style for the X TVP T 50/51  ,  X Object 140  , X Bat.-Châtillon 25 t  , or X M48A5 Patton  . Each 3D style can only drop once.

But the most coveted rewards are the rare Tier VIII and IX Premium and reward vehicles, including new and very rare ones. Check them out:

• E 77, Tier IX, is an experimental version of a German heavy tank featuring new ideas in its engine compartments, chassis, and transmission. These changes led to an overall decrease in vehicle size, which helped the E 77 stand out among its German peers. Still, the vehicle has some reliable armor and a famous German 12.8 cm gun.
• Projekt ION, a Tier VIII vehicle. On the orders of Alliance high command, Hannelore Ritter set to work on prototyping a tank capable of matching up to the fearsome Blitzträger auf E 110. Powered by a nuclear plasma engine and endowed with armaments that harness electromagnetic energy, the "Projekt: ION" is a vehicle with the potential to wreak untold destruction—but Hannelore's greatest fear is that it will be used against her estranged sister, Ermelinda.
• Leichter Kpz. 70 (K), a Tier VIII German Light Tank with a non-standard appearance. The unique vehicle configuration provides an excellent -10 degrees of gun depression. Its hydropneumatic suspension and compact uninhabited turret with an accurate 90 mm gun allow for firing from behind cover while completely hiding the hull and make this vehicle a very unpleasant target.

The Engineer's Crate: How It Works

• When a vehicle drops from the Engineer’s Crate, a slot in the Garage is credited first, and then information about it will be displayed in the in-game notification center.
• If you receive a vehicle that is already in your Garage, it will be replaced by another vehicle from the above list that you don't already have in your Garage.
• If you already have all the vehicles from the list, you will be compensated the cost of the dropped tank in gold.
• If you have sold a Premium vehicle from the above list and it can be restored using the in-game Vehicle Restoration tool, it may drop from the Engineer's Crate at the standard drop rate.

Guaranteed Vehicle Mechanics

If you opened 49 Engineer's Crates but still did not receive a Premium vehicle, then with the 50th activation of the Engineer's Crate, you are guaranteed to receive a random Premium tank that you don't have already from the list above, as well as a Garage slot.

If you already have all the vehicles from the list in your Garage, then the guaranteed vehicle mechanics will be disabled.

The Reward Replacement Mechanic

The Waffenträger: Reckoning event features a reward replacement mechanic, meaning you can replace your current prize. Each reward replacement counts towards a guaranteed vehicle and gets you one step closer to getting a Premium tank.

The Harriers' Crate can be reactivated up to three times for credits.

• The first replacement costs 25.000 , the second 50.000 , and the third 100.000 .

The Engineer's Crate can be reactivated up to five times for gold.

• The first three replacements cost 250 each, and the rest are 500 each.
• Each replacement will grant you one rented battle in the Waffenträger auf E 100.

You cannot replace your reward if the Engineer's Crate drops a Premium vehicle or compensation in gold.

Exclusive Crew Members

Max von Krieger and special blogger crew members are ready to join your ranks! Upon completion of certain event milestones, you’ll be able to recruit these unique characters with exclusive voiceovers. They come with enough XP to learn three perks of your choice.

Neither crew member is affiliated with any nation, so you can assign them to any vehicle in your Garage. Initially, they can only be recruited as Commanders, but you can change their major qualifications using gold.

The Medals

Defeat the Blitzträger auf E 110 when fighting in the Harrier Squad to get the Olympus Has Fallen medal. Defeat the Harrier Squad while Ermelinda alive to get the Song of the Siren medal.  Overcome incredible odds by defeating the Blitzträger and Eos 1 and escaping Hyperion when fighting in the Harrier Squad to get A Brighter Future medal.
