I would recommend putting them into each persons assigned task first. So loader loading, gunner gunnery, commander vision and leadership, and so on, then you can work up the others once those are at 2-3 per guy. Things like vitality help early on with the small guns and tanks, but means less at high tiers when your ammo rack is likely to be what kills you, and a shell to the face will always kill a guy

Well, I like Keen Vision. It is not for everyone. :spy:

Max out the primary stats first: targeting and driving. These two can be maxed out quickly and give the largest benefit.

Then work on reloading and leadership a bit - until you get to a point where getting enough experience to upgrade them takes too many battles. These skills are important as well, but fully unlocking them is very expensive. Not worth fixating on them when other skills are not upgraded at all.

At that point you can start upgrading everything evenly. I'd recommend to keep doing that until you as a player are experienced enough to decide what skill you need to focus on (if any).

Rangefinding(for snipe)
reloading

Rangefinding? Really? It takes forever (until laser rangefinders, at which point the skill is irrelevant anyway), is unreliable from about 500 meters and completely useless at 900+. Which is hardly "sniping" distance by the way.

You'd be better off remembering the distances (through trial and error if necessary) to key landmarks where targets often appear if you want to snipe.

And then there's arcade where it's all fully automated for those who like to shoot at name tags when the crosshair turns green.

Well said. Rangefinding crew skill is a scam imo.

Well..it really depends on whether you are playing AB or RB.

since i put most of my time in RB, and my crews are generally 75+:

tank driving
targeting
weapon reloading
leadership

As the guy said above.

However, Vitality is pretty important for not getting immediately deaded, barring ammo racked. Having crew recover faster from stuns is also fairly useful. Rangefinding can be important if youre playing BRs before everything has rangefinders, and especially if your using tanks that dont have good optics. Tank repair can shave off 10-15 seconds, which could be life or death to your tank:) Any skill that takes an average of your crews levels is a very hefty investment. Keen Vision is useless in RB though as are some of the other skills.
