World of Tanks 1.23.1: Valentine tank, new stats – nerfed
The Valentine is a regular light tank of Tier III from Great Britain. In the new patch 1.23.1, this tank has undergone some changes that affect its performance and durability. Here are the main changes that you should know:
- The module repair cost has been slightly reduced from 1,243 to 1,233 credits, which means you can save some money in case of damage.
- The hull armor has been changed from 60/60/60 mm to 60/43/60 mm, which means that the front and rear armor remain the same, but the side armor is weaker. This makes the tank more vulnerable to flanking attacks, so you should be careful about your positioning.
- The suspension of the Valentine Mk. I has been improved, increasing the load capacity from 16,500 to 18,600 kg. This allows you to equip more modules and consumables without compromising the mobility of the tank.
- The engine power of the AEC A190 has been increased from 131 to 145 hp, and the specific power has been increased from 7.14 to 7.90 hp/t. This gives the tank more acceleration and speed, making it more agile and responsive.
- The engine power of the GMC 6004 6-71S has been increased from 138 to 155 hp, and the power density has been increased from 7.44 to 8.36 hp/t. This also enhances the mobility of the tank, allowing it to reach its top speed faster and maneuver better.
- The radio WS No. 19 Mk. I has been removed from the tank, which means that you can no longer use it. This reduces the communication range of the tank, which may affect your situational awareness and teamwork. You should consider using another radio instead.
