| I'm just curious to know what you guys use as your secondary weapon in the main battle tanks. I use to always used canister, but since the last patch I started using guided shell. Are the LMG and HMG worth trying out? What do you roll with? |

| If I'm playing with a clan mate in tank, HMG, if not, LMG. I don't always trust gunners |

| I always used HMG before and then started using canister, got hooked on it but might have to get a new secondary weapon choice after that last patch |

| It really depends on the map Libido. The bigger maps like caspian/kharg always guided and ir smoke. For Seine i use thermal and HMG, they buffed the HMG after the last patch btw |

| Yeah but I'm to lazy to switch tank loadout before a game, so I usually run with guided on Seine and it's not very helpful |

| Go with the hmg. They buffed it, plus it literally NEVER overheats. You could theoretically never stop firing. Helps keep those pesky engies and C4 supports away |

| Well I used to use the HMG 'till I unlocked the canister and then I've been using it ever since. I find it particularly good for anti-aircraft compared to the LMG or HMG, let alone the AP shell. It does a reasonable amount closer in but then again, the HMG never overheats. The guided shell is too cumbersome for my liking and takes too long to lock, the element of surprise will give you just as much of an advantage against an enemy tank. So I'd stick with canister unless you are feeling change might suffice |

| Thanks for all the tips. For now I'm going to use the LMG, just prefer it to the HMG, just personal taste |

| I used to canister all the way but the delay in firing has steered me away from it. If there's some clanmates in the game and enemy vehicles to be expected I take guided, otherwise LMG. I like the suppressive effect and high RoF better |
