I currently have Verizon, thinking of switching to t-mobile for $. I've never used them before- is coverage around here with Tmobile as good as it is for Verizon? Fwiw, I'm in the south side

Recently switched to Verizon almost 2 weeks ago from ATT. Have 6 lines on Unlimited+. I’m still familiarizing myself to the website/app. For the usage for each line it says that I’ve used the hotspot for the same amount of mobile data. So far I have used 22.41 GB of data and 22.41 of 4G hotspot data. Which I haven’t for the hotspot. Has this happened to anyone else? I’m not concerned about it, I just want to know if I need to address the issue with Verizon or if it’ll sort itself out.

Now, I’m not going to say that Mint Mobile doesn’t make the cut, because I’ve not tried them. I have seen network speed tests performed by reviewers and concluded with their results and my personal experience and understanding of what you pay for, that USM goes undefeated in the best bang for the buck.
I had an active line with them for around 2.5 years for my personal line. After porting a number I had with them to Visible, and having absolutely trash service (I was using Verizon’s network with USM), and being told by customer service through direct chat that “5Mbps download speed is our minimum acceptable speed, so there’s nothing more we can do to improve it for you”… I nearly had a brain aneurysm. You’re telling me that Verizon’s network is “good enough” in the fifth most populous city of the USA, where I got well over 25+Mbps down speeds on the SAME network with just a different front end/MVNO taking my money, and my home’s trashy DSL line getting 9Mbps down speed is BETTER than $35/month cell service?
I understand this was most likely a back end issue, and there’s more that could have been done to improve my experience if I tried hard enough, but the damage was done. I was being told a crappy speed was “sufficient” to put it lightly.
The phone line was being used by someone else in my household at this point, so I signed them up for their own account (with my details, as they wanted some privacy and aren’t very technical, and I handle all tech problems anyway), got them the 100 day trial activated, and service had been excellent. If I could speak for it holding up to my personal experience with the company, I would, but I can only go off of what the end user reports: zero complaints, zero issues, only some usage data bleed through from the original account that was used with the number (given it was all under the same name, all the same details, I can excuse the minor annoyance since there’s no real privacy breach or anything). The workaround for figuring out how much of the allotment of full speed data was done by taking the second billing cycle of the trial, deducting that total from the number provided by support chat, and making a note for how much to add to the running total for the second billing cycle (if there wasn’t the bleed through of usage data, which is a rare case anyway, it’d be easy enough to just go off the metric for that timeframe).
My “review” of sorts, with a TL;DR is as follows: if you want a quality service that goes above and beyond with customer relations, had solid connectivity where you already get quality service with the Verizon/T-Mobile network, and you don’t want to spend an arm and a leg, GET US MOBILE. They really do put the effort into helping their customers, new and old, and if my personal number wasn’t with another carrier because of a benefit that pays for the service, it’d be through US Mobile. The other user in my household that’s using it- flawless experience for the most part. Some minor hiccups and slow speeds at odd hours are to be expected with any network, and they are reportedly resolved on their own without a fuss.
I hope my experience gives a different perspective, and a slightly unique spin on how this company handles their customers and does business. Myself, I’ve had only data package billing cycles, and never had a problem with excessive data consumption or bad speeds. The other user, good enough speeds to be very happy and not once complained in the first few weeks of the free trial period. We both hope tunings continue to go this way for years to come, as I was a proud customer for around 2.5 years myself. I can say that since finding their service thanks to MVNO comparison sites and reviews, that there had never been a service this high quality for this price, nor that I bothered to test drive it myself (save my awful experience with Visible).
If you’re considering USM for a new line/port in, they’re FAST at getting you up and running (takes minutes at the most), and you’ll love the fact that the network experience truly is “premium” without making excuses. Just try them out, especially if you have an eSIM to spare in your phone, and see if they can save you money/offer a similar experience to what you get now. You’ll be pleasantly surprised, even if you don’t make the switch

Greeting raidsecrets, I figured I'd post my tips & tricks along with the build that I ran that got me my solo flawless. Hoping this helps for those who might be struggling!
Lengthy detailed post ahead about my run and how I did each encounter. This will be focusing on just the Ecthar and final boss encounters. I achieved my solo flawless run on my Arc Hunter with Assassin’s Cowl build. This build will keep you healed up, keep you invisible so you're safe from enemies shooting at you, and takes use of Gathering Storm which makes doing boss dmg easy. 😃
This is my general Assassin's Cowl build and we'll be changing some stuff out for each encounter: https://dim.gg/cssas7y/Arc
General notes:

• I was 1822 power level when doing this. (1810 + 12 bonus power)
• For all 3 encounters, I used double specials with at least ONE One Two Punch (OTP) shotgun in either slot for maximum heavy ammo drops.
• This build's main focus is just trying to keep Combination Blow x3 up as often as possible to maximize ad clear, majominiboss kills, and for survivability (invis and heals).
• For the opening encounter I ran around with Wastelander w/OTP, Coldheart, and an Eager Edge Sword. Feel free to use whatever weapons you prefer here, but def keep at least a OTP shotgun on you.

For Ecthar and the things/mods that would need to be changed from what’s shown on the build in the DIM link:

• I ran around with 2 shotguns, both with OTP, then used Lament as my heavy for boss dps.
• On your chest piece you want one arc resist, one lucent blade (this will help with your sword block regen for Lament’s damage rotation), and concussive dampener (this helps with the boss stomps when in their super mode and any moth explosions that may occur). And on your boots you want 2 Solar Surges for extra Lament damage during boss dps.
• Put as much mobility on as you can while staying at 100 resil, because in the water section down low to activate the symbols, it’s going to help staying away from the boss so they don’t damage you. My build had me at 76 so the boss was never a problem when trying to run away. I would recommend at least 50 mobility here, if you can't get 50 with just using stat mods, feel free to run a Font of Agility for the extra 30 mobility when you have an armor charge.
• To start, build up your combo blow x3 with acolyte powered melee kills. Once you get x3, go around and kill each knight with a OTP shotgun shot, dodge, and melee hit. The jolt from lethal current should kill the knights, then do the same when the ogre spawns. Feel free to kill an acolyte nearby to refresh combo blow x3 and to go invis as you go along. After the ogre is dead head down to the middle to activate the deepsight to see what symbols are needed to be activated in the water section.
• For the water section, what helped me the most and to make sure I knew what symbols I had I would talk out loud to myself what symbols I needed. I would then use/reference this map on a secondary monitor to navigate the water for symbol activation. After you successfully located and marked all 3 symbols, it's time to go back up top into the boss room.
• 3 wizards should have spawned and you must kill each lucent wizard and collect their visages. I like killing one at a time, collecting their visage, then move to the next one, then the 3rd one. Quickest way to kill the wizards are going to be with your OTP shotgun and combo blow x3 with lethal current active.
• My rotation for killing the wizards: Building up combo blow x3, charge melee kill a 4th enemy to go invis (which will then refund my dodge), dodge near the wizard to proc lethal current and to refund my charged melee, shoot wizard with OTP shotgun, melee the wizard, and then finish the wizard. This should "1 shot" the wizard due to the damage of the punch and shotgun plus the jolt from lethal current. After the finisher, then repeat that process on the all 3 wizards, then go dunk. Then deposit your visages at each statue and be sure you are ending on one of the side ones. Keep up your Combo Blow x3 while going to each statue.
• After you’ve deposited your 3rd visage, get another powered melee acolyte kill to go invis and to refund your dodge. Run down the stairs and dodge past/next to Ecthar to get your charged melee back + lethal current. Shoot the knight that spawns with your OTP shotgun, melee the knight and it should die from the jolt explosion if your combo blow x3 is up.
• Once the knight is down and you’re standing in its pool, immediately turn around to face the boss and throw your Gathering Storm super (this should help with getting his shield down quick) switch to lament and then wait for the boss to run to you or run to the boss. Once the boss is on you throw your pulse nade at your feet for extra damage on the boss.
• My rotation I used on the boss for Lament to keep my health up as much as possible and to do get quick but strong dmg was: Block, Rev’d Light Attack, Rev’d Light Attack, Rev’d Heavy Attack, then a normal Light Attack, and another normal Light Attack. Repeat. If you can land this combo consistently it will net you a 4 phase but if not it’s a guaranteed 5 phase. If you start taking too much damage or feel like you might die during this do not feel discouraged to disengage and either kill a nearby acolyte with your charged melee for invis & heal or just dip into the water (I would sometimes have to do this -AFTER- the boss goes immune to save my ass lol).
• This fight took me 5 phases due to the combo not always landing correctly. The reason being is I would just phase thru Ecthar and miss, or it do that laggy thing where he'd teleport like 2 feet behind me but overall it was very consistent on damage.
• Knights are the biggest factor in taking damage here during boss dps. Sometimes they like to artillery strike you from the stairs (worst outcome), sometimes they’ll run at you and you can kill them with Lament when you’re dps’ing the boss (better outcome), or they just won’t bother with you at all until dmg phase is over (best outcome). More often than not they will usually arty strike from the stairs. So be cautious.
• For this entire encounter keep Combination Blow x3 up as much as possible as this will allow you to one shot all acolytes in the arena. Land your shotgun shots for OTP, and make sure to get lethal current up as this will basically “one shot” the lucent wizards, knights, and ogres. And as a reminder these kills will keep you invisible as well as heal you whenever you need it, makes navigating the arena just that much safer.

For the final encounter on the build as well things that would need to be changed from what’s shown on the DIM link:

• So for this encounter I ran Arby, OTP energy shotgun, and an explosive light rocket with tracking for boss damage. If you don’t have a rocket with explosive and track, ascendancy is in the kiosk at the tower where you can claim past seasonal exotics and legendaries. Main thing for this loadout is to again rock double specials and making sure one of them is a OTP shotgun to help with majors and mini bosses (the lucent hive).
• If rockets aren’t your play or don’t feel comfortable, linears (vorpal, frenzy, bait and switch, etc) will be your next best option, followed by a machine gun (vorpal, target lock, killing tally).
• On the chest piece make sure you have 2 arc resists on (for the boss when she shoots at you) and a concussive dampener. There seems to be some talk about moths ignoring resists, but in my runs it seems the concussive dampener actually helps with this. On the boots use the surge to whatever element your heavy is, mine was Arc cause of Hothead.
• When the battle starts head over to Oryx’s right hand, wait for the ads to spawn. Powered melee kill them to get your combo blow x3 going. Keep up combo blow x3 as much as possible to stay invis from the boss as much as you can during this encounter.
• After you’ve gotten combo blow x3, you’ll want to clear out and kill the 3 major knights in the arena. First one should be near you down by Oryx’s right knee, then the 2nd one will be over by Oryx’s left hand (near where you enteplace down the rally flag), then the final one will be up at the top by Oryx’s head. After you’ve killed all 3 knights activate the deepsight (melee kill an acolyte to go invis so the boss doesn’t blast you while you activate it). Map of the arena for reference.
• Locate which limbs you need to activate. It will always be chest/heart + 2 other limbs, and you must always activate one of the other 2 limbs first. For whatever reason doing chest first doesn’t work when I was doing my runs. When activating the limbs, you don’t actually have to kill Vorlog within the circle that glows (I initially thought you had to), just make sure you're standing in the glowing circle when you kill Vorlog.
• Now this is where Assassin’s Cowl comes into play very nicely for this encounter. Every time you complete the “look thru the circle and line up the symbol” at each limb, the boss likes to spawn those nuke moths. If you complete a limb while invis, these moths will -DESPAWN-. This is a massive benefactor to this fight simply cause you do not have to deal with the moths that are shoot at you. Another note: if you complete a limb and then go invis right after with a melee kill, the moths will spawn but they won’t track for you and will instead just track to a hive npc to give them the shield.
• Once you have all 3 limbs activated it's time to grab visages from the lucent hive. My method was always killing the 3 lucent hive in the exact same order every phase (from hardest to kill to easiest to kill for me) so I knew when I was about to start dps phase. My order was Knight 1st > Acolyte 2nd > Wizard last Every. Single. Time. I always found the knight to be the toughest of the 3 due to the double shield throw and melee/slam damage the knight likes to do. I would usually try to shoot him first while clearing out the ads so he would super and I wouldn't have to worry about a potential death from the shield throws.
• When entering in the area to kill the lucent hive I -ALWAYS- said to myself out loud the symbol a bunch of times so I knew where I was dunking it at. Then before finishing the lucent ghost I would look at it one more time and continue to say it out loud as I killed the ghost. Feel free to type it in the chat, but speaking it out loud helped with remembering it much better for me. Also, same as the Ecthar fight I would build up my combo blow x3 to clear out the acolytes, run up to the lucent hive, dodge for jolt, shoot a OTP shotgun shot, then 2 melee hits to kill.
• After killing the lucent hive and was back in the main boss area I made sure to melee kill an acolyte for invis, go activate deepsite while invis, then dunk the symbol while invis as well. You should have plenty of time between, but if not just get another melee kill to refresh invis.
• Once the 3rd symbol is dunked or you're heading to dunk it make sure you're invis. Once dunked pull out arby, hit the boss once to get rid of the shield, and throw your Gathering Storm super at the boss right after.
• Now here’s where it can get tricky cause I wiped a couple times due to this cause I used rockets. When doing heavy weapon dps on the boss, be sure to clear out any ads (especially thralls) at your feet before starting for extra orbs for surge dmg if you need it.
• Now, when going to shoot your rockets (if you’re using them) either jump up on an area where thralls can’t get you easily or jump and shoot around in the arena (I did a mix of both). This helps with not killing yourself by shooting an ad in your face.
• Another thing to note, when going to shoot your rocket (if you’re using one) make sure the boss is actually shooting at you or else she’ll move and dodge the rocket. Her shooting at you allows you actually land your shots cause she won’t be moving around actively trying to dodge your rockets/shots.
• Rinse and repeat these steps and you should be good. This took me 4 times/phases to beat and just over 90 minutes to complete.
• -DONT FORGET TO FINISH THE BOSSES-

So in about a month I’ll be traveling to the outback counties of Kentucky where T-Mobile coverage is almost non-existent even on postpaid.
My iPhone 13 Pro Max is unlocked and I’ve verified through my settings and T-Mobile.
I want an AT&T or MVNO that uses AT&T so I can stay connected as per FCC data, they cover the areas I’ll be traveling to the best. Verizon doesn’t seem to have a tower until a few towns over.
I only need coverage for about a week, is there any cheap option available? I don’t think there will be much Wi-Fi during my trip. I can do either eSIM or pSIM.

I played Diablo 2 when I was a kid, played Diablo 3 in middle school/early high school. Moved on to Path of Exile, briefly Lost Ark.
I now have a career, wife, a kid… I was so worried this game would let me down. $100 is a lot to ask, I actually had to work overtime to justify buying this game in our budget.
But damn, If I’m not having a good time. The skill tree doesn’t get enough attention. The open world gameplay is a grand slam. The massive map is amazing. The classes feel diverse, and subclasses (like… bone necro vs blood necro) feel totally unique.
I haven’t gotten to endgame yet, but this dad loves D4. Everyone knows Blizz can absolutely eat a bag of dicks. But it’s clear there is a lot of talent in the D4 team that just put a shit ton into this game.
It feels like this game was made for people like me, who miss the challenge but just don’t have the time to hardcore grind anymore.
Love it. That’s all.

Original post: https://www.reddit.com/verizon/comments/143ltam/bizarre_situation_with_my_phone_numbe
I was assigned my current phone number from T-Mobile postpaid years ago. I have since taken it with me to US Mobile, and eventually Verizon postpaid where it sits now.
I received a text from a Mint mobile customer stating they were assigned my phone number from Mint. They made an outbound call from their Mint device using my phone number to demonstrate this.
I call up Mint Mobile customer service, and while they cannot disclose any personal customer information, they do confirm my phone number is associated with an active Mint account.
I have called Verizon's porting dept several times and every time they reassure me that my number is fully ported to Verizon and to disregard this Mint customer.
Commenters on my Verizon post seem to believe my story and are offering potential explanations for this phenomenon.
I am posting it here on MintMobile in the hopes of getting the attention of MintMobileAlex or someone who can escalate this and see how my active/current Verizon number ended up in Mint's number pool and was assigned to a Mint customer.
Thank you.

So I moved across the country (and Canada) from Alaska to NC. I never imagined I'd find worse cell service, but the house in Durham is depraved with Verizon.
I have read other posts... Reset mobile, WiFi, bluetooth RCS on. RCS off. Reset APN. Force stop messages. Clear messages cache and data. Wifi calling on. Wifi calling off. Restart phone.
I feel like this should be simple... But it sure isn't!
Any help appreciated.

Hello,
I ported my phone number (which I was originally assigned from T-Mobile years ago), ported it to US Mobile, then to finally Verizon postpaid. It seems like the port fully went through.
I received an iMessage text from someone today claiming they joined Mint Mobile, got assigned a new phone number, and that it was my phone number.
I thought it was a scam at first, or someone wasting my time, but they in fact called me from my own phone number. I am familiar with number spoofing, but without any sort of contact, it showed the iOS Verified checkmark along with my caller ID name.
It doesn't seem like a scam because the other person seems genuinely confused and wants to resolve this too. They haven't asked me for any information or anything. They just wanted to inform me.
Not sure where to go from here.

So I picked up a Z13 finally on a lucky restock but one performance question I haven’t seen answered yet is the performance on its own vs. a 3080 or a 6850 XG mobile gpu. Which would be best if I wasn’t able to snag a 4090 right away or is one necessary for gaming natively on the device? I usually only play Destiny 2 but don’t want massive frame drops during raids.

It boots, gets an IP but no data on the dashboard
I reset to factory, here is my log, if anyone can help it would be supremely appreciated:

Game ended at 4:00 PM.
Remember to sort by new to keep up!

The gunplay in HLL is regularly commented on favourably and is seen as one of the best aspects of the game. The Aim Down Sight (ADS) is quick, recoil is relatively low and makes follow up shots easy enough, and until Update 14 with the British forces there was relatively little weapon sway. All this, combined with the relatively smooth movement enables aggressive and fun gameplay where twitchy reflex shots are possible and regular repositioning to take opponents by surprise is rewarded.
With all that said, there are situations and weapon classes in HLL that are far from satisfying and maps like El Alamein have exposed this even more. Most people are understandably complaining about the movement speed, but I think there is another factor which is limiting fun and arguably more realistic gameplay and creating weapon imbalance that need not exist: the high weapon accuracy, even at long ranges.
As far as I’m aware, rifles and MGs in this game have practically zero random spread and once you account for bullet drop and travel time, it’s not difficult to reliably hit static targets at 300-400m.
Why is this a problem? Well, first there is practically zero concept of volume of fire in this game. Generally, in HLL if you can see an enemy, you expect to hit within 1 to 2 shots. If you stick your head above cover and don’t move, you can expect to be killed very quickly, because almost everyone on the team equipped with a rifle is a sharp-shooter. In HLL there are very few situations where it is worth firing at without a clear shot to force them into cover and to stop them shooting at you or your team. It’s almost always better to wait until you see an enemy clearly and shoot to hit. In real warfare I expect a far more common occurrence is to shoot to suppress and force the enemy to disengage. This concept is partly represented in HLL through two mechanics: 1) you can take shots at longer ranges and heal back full health, effectively giving you chance to take incoming fire and reposition, and 2) the suppression effect. For the former, I would much rather have a second chance at long-ranges through near-miss shots and taking cover rather than taking hits and having to heal (as it currently the case). It’s more realistic and let’s be honest, who actually likes healing and finding more bandages? The suppression mechanic is highly situational, as it usually only applies to MGs and SMGs even then it is often better to wait for clear shots due to the high accuracy and target you make yourself once you expose your position.
My proposal is as follows: add bullet spread in addition to travel time and drop, with effect at the following ranges for rifles/MGs (sniper rifles possibly exempt):

• 50m – Almost undetectable spread.
• 100m – A little spread. More frequent arm/leg shots when aiming for centre of mass. Head shots less reliable but still pretty much the same HLL we know and love.
• 200m – Around 50% chance of hit on static target.
• 300m – Around 25% chance of hit on static target.
• 400m – Around 10% chance of hit on static target.

In addition, to balance this out I suggest making torso hit from any rifle calibre bullets fully incapacitate up to 400m and increase the suppression effect for nearby misses/impacts.
I don’t know how this compares to real WW2 rifle accuracy, but I’ve read the effective ranges for rifles was around 500-600m. I assume this is for forcing enemies into cover rather than expecting direct hits, which is what I’m suggesting we simulate for some different gameplay/meta.
What would be the benefits in doing this? Firstly, one could expect to take incoming fire and have time to get behind cover and reposition more frequently. This would be the biggest benefit to MG players. It would also allow for easier transversal across open areas to enable new flanking opportunities, although this would need to be balanced out with some movement changes to prevent excessive zig-zagging and prone abuse to avoid taking hits entirely. And it would also allow for some tactics such as drawing enemy fire to expose their position, without fear of being insta-killed.
Doesn’t more randomness = less competitive? Normally I would say yes, but there are other games with these types of mechanics that manage to retain interesting gameplay, and even develop meta around this randomness. To pick an extreme example, in Holdfast you use muskets which have huge inaccuracy. Holdfast is a lot more casual, but there is still a skill curve in knowing what ranges to engage in different ways, and knowing when to shoot. Combined with the suppression mechanic in HLL, I’ve no doubt there could be more depth to combat than there is currently.
How would this affect different weapon classes?
Rifles - Overall it’s a Nerf. The likelihood of getting one hit kills is lower but conversely there is a higher likelihood of staying alive. I think it was result in more fun because more time alive and engaged in combat = more fun. It would also make kills more rewarding at longer range because they are less frequent, albeit with a greater degree of luck.
MGs – Mostly Buff (but some Nerf) – I find playing as MG and playing against MGs frustrating for different reasons. I hate that it sometimes takes a long time to find the perfect MG spot, only to be headshotted from a long range rifle after a couple of second of firing. I also hate that I can be running in the open e.g. on El Alamein and be instantly mown down by laser accurate MG-42 fire from a distance with no ability to run for cover. More bullet spread with rifles and MGs would resolve both these frustrations. MG players would have ability to reposition when taking incoming fire, as opposed to being killed instantly. Targets of MG players would have a little more grace of finding cover before being shredded.
Automatic rifles/LMGs – Huge Buff. Ideally equipped with a bipod, the FG-42, BREN and BAR would see the biggest relative benefits of bullet spread. Whilst they would be less accurate, these weapons would actually be able to function like they do in real life i.e. to provide concentrated volume of fire. Currently in HLL, automatic rifles are essentially just semi-automatic rifles except when in close quarters combat, where they are used like SMGs. There is no concept of providing concentrated suppression because it’s just too risky – too easy to be one-shotted at range.
SMGs – Possibly a Buff overall? Honestly, I don’t know. All I do know if that the meta of SMG vs SMG at short to medium range is spray in general direction and hope you land hits first. It’s a bit stale. There is not enough emphasis on burst fire at medium ranges. Spraying should only be viable at very close range.
Pistols – Don’t really care. They could do with a damage buff. These proposed changes would act as a buff overall to pistols due to less accurate incoming fire, and pistols are generally only used at close range anyway.
I hope that was interesting reading and encourages some debate. I also hope that Team 17 care about details like this because it’s small refinements that can often have the most positive impact on gameplay. HLL got me back into gaming, and since U14 all my discord buddies who played the game daily, and in all the various competitive leagues, have now moved on to other games. It’s very sad.
TL:DR – I would like to see more bullet spread to buff some weapon classes relative to others and to enable more forgiving, fun and more realistic gameplay in some situations.

I have not seen many tech tree guides on the subreddit, so I decided to make one, starting with my favourite tech tree (and one that is very popular in general): the Grille 15. I'll skip the T6, because it should be a quick grind and that tank is kinda just food for KV-2s and Smashers...
The light German TD line is known for being squishy yet stealthy and having big and reliable guns that hit hard. This line is mostly about hanging back and supporting your team where it is most needed, because you lack armour and basic brawling ability. This does not mean you should sit in a bush until the heat death of the universe: big alpha guns give you a lot of power in the late game, where you can even start trading shots with other, even heavy tanks.

Sturer Emil: a weird one.

The St. Emil is an outlier in its own tech tree, boasting the best gun depression angles in the game, a huge punchy gun for its tier, a lack of prammo and somewhat HE-resistant armour. In my opinion, the Steyr WT would have fit this line perfectly, but I won't complain that we got such a special tank for free :D
Pros:

• Amazing alpha for the tier, even in a full uptier
• Gun is accurate in comparison with the alpha
• AP pen is plenty enough
• -15 degrees of depression is the best in the game
• Gun mantlet can be trollish

Cons:

• Speed is very underwhelming
• Frontal armour won't stop any HE shells bigger than 120mm (the sides won't stop anything)
• Camo isn't as good as other tanks of this line
• Engine tends to be damaged and set on fire
• Not game-changing, but sometimes annoying: only 10 degrees of elevation...

Others: For the equipment, this is a T7, so a gun rammer and camo net will be enough. I wouldn't run adrenaline but rather have double repair kit and medkit, because this tank's crew drop like flies. Ammo choice is simple: mostly AP, rest HE
Playstyle: This is an absolute odd unit... And the playstyle is not only incoherent with the rest of the line, but also with itself. On one hand high alpha and great gun depression point to a ridgeline warrior, but the weak engine (garbage reverse speed as well) and poor armour point towards a campier playstyle.
This tank sits in the middle and requires a hefty amount of map awareness: useless if too far back, will explode instantly if getting shot. This tank should be played second line, behind the heavies or meds, but in front of a pure-sniper TD such as a Skorpion. Early game, you should focus on finding a spot where you can safely hide, and quickly put a massive 500 damage in before disappearing: a ridge, such as the one on Winter Malinovka (just outside of spawn) or Rockfield (behind the second line bushes) are a perfect spot to lurk at.
Once the fighting has advanced, you can decide to reposition or push, knowing that you will probably outtrade anyone. Using this wisely, you can lock out the enemy from an area, secure a cap, or if shit hits the fan, trade shots. Don't forget to abuse those -15 degrees of gun depression, going over ridges and appearing in spots the enemy doesn't expect. Watch out for packs of mediums/lights, as one is already a lot of trouble, but several are a death sentence.
Rheinmetall-Borsig Waffenträger- the spirit of the line
If you needed even more alpha and sneak, this is THE tank for you. The Borsig is a widely used tank, despite going completely against the heavy tank meta in this game: if that does not prove to you how good it is, nothing will. People simply love the idea of being undetected 70 meters away from an enemy, knowing they could hit them for 1k damage if they wanted to...
Pros:

• Great alpha damage for the tier
• Fully rotatable turret
• Camo rating is among the best in the game
• Amazing HEAT pen: nearly 370mm
• Decent HE pen
• Access to a ridiculously strong set of superconsumables and provisions makes this tank exponentially better
• Good hull traverse

Cons:

• No armour whatsoever: any tank can pen with HE
• The derp is inaccurate and unreliable at mid-to-long range
• Low AP pen
• Low shell velocity
• Tank is very light: takes a lot of ramming damage
• Gun depression is subpar

Equipment: Camo net, along with refined gun and calibrated shells are a must. EGLD and supercharger are both good (depends on your playstyle: supercharger for longer range engagements, EGLD if you find yourself closer to the enemy often), the rest is up to you.
Provisions: I run chocolate and improved fuel, but an absolute must (and an insanely broken provision that everyone should exploit) is the HE Spall liner, reducing HE damage to below AP-ish levels of damage.
Consumables: My go-to consumables are double repairs and reticle calibration, because this gun is quite inaccurate (the reason I don’t take adrenaline is that adrenaline is made for situations the Borsig shouldn’t be in in the first place, while reticle calibration serves the useful purpose of making your accuracy go from very bad to acceptable)
Playstyle: This tank is sniper-second line hybrid, although completely different from the Emil. Instead of hiding behind ridges and trying to stay within trash talking distance of the fight, this tank relies on its incredible camo values: if you find a bush, enemies will have to get nearly within proxy-spotting range to see you. Always find a good position for your flank, while always minimising the risk of being rushed with no support. Pushing alone is a death sentence.
At the start of a match, you should use this incredible camo to take a position that is hidden, preferably behind a bush (relatively far from the action, around >220m) so that you may stay undetected after shooting, or if you are unlucky and get city maps such as New Bay, Port Bay or the TD nightmare a.k.a Himmelsdorf, find a corner you can peek while minimising exposure. The priority is to get to a safe position with favourable view on your flank: the hills at spawn on Castilla, the tall ridges near the railways on Alpenstadt... Stay safe until the fighting has died down, but don't hesitate to find another sniper's nest or to reinforce the other flank if you are not being too productive for your own team. This is also the ideal moment to use reticle calibration to make every shot count.
Late-game the goal is to push with what is left of your allies: trading shots is less advisable than with the Emil, as your HP relative to the tier is worse, and high alpha guns become more common at T8. Instead, you can be a bit more daring with your positioning: take spots that are concealed without being concerned about remaining invisible after firing, any bush will do. Relocate often while keeping an eye out for enemies that are not within one-shot range, as they will be able to take the initiative against you. Basically: use the element of surprise.
Waffenträger auf Panzer IV- the true peak of the line
We are at T9, yet we have reached the apex predator of the line, the reason of this line’s popularity, and the bane of all your enemies on open maps. Tell me: when was your last T9 ratings match without at least one, or even two Waffenträgers on either side? Yeah, I can’t remember either… And honestly, rightfully so, as this is probably my favourite tank in the entire game, even after the nerfs.
Pros:

• Fully rotatable turret
• Very good camo values
• High accuracy and better shell velocity than Borsig
• Good pen for all shells
• Both guns are viable
• Access to HE spall liner
• Good hull traverse
• Rear placement of the turret is an advantage: more on this later...

Cons:

• Turret is quite large and weak
• Engine is weak and easily set on fire
• 12.8cm: bad depression angles over the front, the gun is quite a bit heavier
• 15cm: the gun shield becomes MUCH bigger, elevation when looking backwards is 0 degrees

Equipment: Camo net and refined gun are a must, but on this one improved assembly is as well. Calibrated (for the HEAT and HE pen) and supercharger (for the subpar shell velocity) for the 15cm, rammer (for extra DPM) and EGLD (the aiming time isn’t amazing for a sniper) for the 12,8cm.
Provisions: Same as with the Borsig, I take improved fuel, HE Spall liner and chocolate
Consumables: You get more of a choice here for what you can take, depending on gun choice and your personal playstyle preferences. The only thing I would not let go of under any circumstance is my double repair kit, because the engine on this tank is made of explodium. I usually run this tank with double repairs and medkit (with the 15cm), but you could make the case for both RC and adrenaline on the 15cm, while RC is kinda pointless on the 12.8cm.
Playstyle: The Waffle does what the Borsig did save for camo but outshines the Borsig at everything else and feels more flexible. Thanks to the now good accuracy of the 15cm, it can stay back and safe for longer while hitting shots way more often, allowing you to focus on survival instead of constantly being pressed to get as close as you can without dying. And when the time is right, better mobility, turret traverse, accuracy and higher HP make you infinitely more capable of standing alone.
Early-game should be standard for a sniper tank: just find a bush with good vision over your flank and take shots whenever possible. You can’t be as daring in positioning as a Borsig (your camo is somewhat worse), but here comes the twist that has defined the Waffle’s playstyle: the rear-mounted turret. Use this to your advantage by sneaking around a corner or a rock undetected, taking a shot, then quickly going back. Same thing applies when in bushes: only your turret is sticking out when you take a shot, so that you minimise exposure to the enemies. The reason I call the rear-mounted turret an advantage when most oftentimes it’s regarded as a drawback is that this tank has a high camo rating and good manoeuvrability, while other rear-mounted tanks tend to lack both.
Once you have abused your newly learned trick and the battle has advanced, it’s time to think about repositioning. Just like this tank’s predecessor, a careful approach, methodically going with your allies and finding hiding spots such as bushes or corners where you can’t be surprised is better. The reason I said the Waffle is better when standing alone is because anything can stand better than a fish on dry land (a.k.a the Borsig). Tanks you should be especially wary of are anything with a gun as big as yours, because spall liner can negate SOME damage but not module damage, and people love to shoot at such a squishy target as you.
Grille 15- an underwhelming ending
So, you kinda got carried away playing the amazing Waffle, huh? So, you buy this tank, and are met with a disappointing blend of characteristics… A decent damage per shot, good DPM for the alpha, good mobility and a dispersion on the move so bad you could miss a building from the inside. It does play slightly differently than its predecessors in that it has less than half of the Waffle’s camo rating and loses the fully rotatable turret: everything that made this whole line special…
Pros:

• Decent DPM
• Best accuracy ingame when fully aimed
• Fast aiming time
• Great shell velocity
• Good mobility
• Access to HE spall liner
• Good AP pen
• Wide turret arcs
• Long gun barrel occasionally blocks shots

Cons:

• Little armour
• One of the biggest aiming circles when not fully aimed (on par with the likes of KV-2)
• Terrible camo values
• Terrible HEAT pen
• Low HP
• Subpar traverse speed
• Barely any depression over the front (-4 degrees) and the sides (-5 degrees)
• Tank is very tall: on par with Jg.Pz. E100

Equipment: Camo net, refined gun and calibrated shells are most important. Supercharger isn’t necessary so go with EGLD, and I suggest taking engine accelerator as well as improved assembly. The rest is up to you, it won’t change that much.
Provisions: As per usual, chocolate, improved fuel and spall liner do wonders
Consumables: I’d say the choice boils down to two selections: either double repairs and medkit, or double repairs and adrenaline. I don’t understand people who take RC, as it brings little value to a gun that is already very accurate when aimed in…
Playstyle: The Grille definitely feels like it’s been made with camping all the way back in mind, having no fully rotatable turret, on the move dispersion factors worthy of a KV-2, little armour, little HP and not enough traverse speed. I play this tank as a dedicated sniper, taking advantage of its #1 accuracy when standing still, and sitting far enough from the engagement (>270m) to not be spotted after firing. Sometimes moving up is better, although you need to perfectly calculate your route to not end up in a sticky situation.
The early game consists of fighting the enemy team, but also your own tank: finding a position that has good view over your flank, doesn’t require good depression angles and is far enough to not immediately blow up after firing is hard. A few examples: the hill near both spawns on Castilla medium side, the classic camping ridges at spawn on Canal, the bridge at both spawns on Alpenstadt… And if you are very unlucky, you’ll end up on Himmelsdorf, which is completely flat (If you end up on the worst map in the game a.k.a Dynasty’s Pearl, Alt+f4). Fortunately for the player, the Grille excels at this, being insanely accurate and having a very easy time landing shots at this stage of the battle.
Now comes the hard part: moving up with the Grille. It is very easy to get carried away and ending up facing an enemy alone, which is an absolute no-no in this abomination. If you get caught off-guard, your enemy will always be able to either outtrade or outmanoeuvre you. When there is no choice, stick to tight corners on areas as open as possible: for example, the houses in the middle Oasis Palms are perfect cover if there are enemies on either side of the map. Try to quickly peek the enemy if they don’t know where you are, or if they do, try to bait a shot onto your tracks, or your extremely long barrel. DO NOT, under any circumstances, facehug the enemy because you are tall and have no depression while the enemy will have an easier time pushing you in a disadvantageous position.

This ended up being a gigantic wall of text, but hey, it's detailed alright, and I really tried giving my best tips from playing this line this much :)
