DoomHerald, on 06 August 2020 - 10:30 PM, said: I was pretty excited about the new equipment, but it seems it is a
big fat LIE. As u can see from the replay, I am using modified
configuration, so I am pretty protected from engine fire, as
advertised: * +100% fuel tank durability; * -50% chance for engine
fire (I also got the driver' perk for further reducing that
chance); * the most important - preventing one fuel tank fire. But
what happened - the very first shot from the enemy with 220 alpha
sets me on fire! U can slow the replay speed to see it was for sure
the first shot I received. What happened with that preventing,
huh?!?!?!?!?!?! All the protection?!?!?!? Any explanation, anyone
from WG?!?!?!?! http://wotreplays.eu/site/5498720#lakeville-doomherald-vk_36_01_h
Dwigt: Hello DommHerald, Modified configuration is not a lie but
there's a misconception on how the fire mechanic works in the
game.
Currently there are 3 reasons why your tank or module will catch on fire. 1. Fuel tank fire: fire caused by module.2. Fire based on destroyed engine: it has decreased chance of happening, because you have more engine HP and -50% of engine fire.3. Fire based on predefined chance of engine fire. In case of the VK 36.01 (H) you have 20% base chance of engine fire. With the modified configuration you reduced it to 10%. There's still a chance that your engine will catch on fire. The Improved Configuration only prevents a fuel tank fire and protects your engine from getting destroyed, you can burn by getting a module hit towards the engine, even if the engine doesn't get damaged. According to the replay the remaining 10% caused the engine fire not the fuel tank that was "protected" by the modified configuration.
