Finances and economy | For beginners World of Warships Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Similarly to most free-to-play games, at some point of the game you will start lacking funds for new upgrades, vehicles and equipment. Because of that, it is wise to start saving money since the beginning of the game and avoid spending it on unnecessary things. The easiest way is of course buying the premium account which greatly increases the amount of credits you earn. Second option is buying one of the premium warships which also have an earning bonus and additionally very small repair costs. However, not everyone wants to spend real money. If you want to avoid spending actual money, then below you will find few tips and advice on how to save yourself from the lack of credits.
- Don't sell the ships before developing the next one. If you ever return to a specific line, you will have to buy the same ship twice.
- Don't buy premium version of consumables early in the game. They cost around 20,000 credits more than the basic ones.
- Don't install any additional equipment on the first ships. It can cost even few hundred thousands of credits. It will be much more profitable to do it on tier V+ ships. Of course, if you like a specific ship and plan to keep it for longer, then this advice doesn't apply to it.
- Play most of the battles on tier V-VI ships. Repair and maintenance costs increase greatly on higher tiers and even an average battle can end with loses.
- The best earning ships on lower tiers are: St. Luis, Tenryu, Kuma, Omaha, Furutaka. In general, if you want to earn the most, then select the cruisers. But remember that the outcome will mostly depend on your skills.
