World of Tanks sensitivity

How do I see my WoT sensitivity? I calculated my sensitivity from csgo to WoT but the slider in WoT doesn't display any numbers

The sensitivity value is only visible in the config file for WoT, you can see the path and filename in the game info

Do I just create a new .cfg file inside of the %APPDATA%\Wargaming.net\WorldOfTanks or do I modify the elements of preferences.xml?

You need to edit the existing one.

But I don't see a .cfg file in %APPDATA%\Wargaming.net\WorldOfTanks

It's not a .cfg, it's a .xml. And if it's not there you might have to change settings in-game for it to appear.

In some cases the devs might even have changed where the config file is, but I verified this one a few months ago.

Yes, I found the .xml file and opened it with notepad, but I can't find 

<root>
 <scriptsPreferences>
  <controlMode>
   <arcadeMode>
    <camera>
     <sensitivity> x </sensitivity>
    </camera>
   </arcadeMode>
  </controlMode>
 </scriptsPreferences>
</root>

It's not necessarily a standalone value, it might look like this:

Yes I've found it, but do I need to change the sensitivity for <artyMode> and <sniperMode>?

Try to set all of them to the same value, but this one is a bit tricky as FOV varies a lot.

Sorry if this question sounds bad but if my arcade sensitivity is 0.383972, do I also make my sniper sensitivity 0.383972 or do I just leave it as 1? I'm assuming I should also set it to 0.383972 because it's "sniper sensitivity and not "zoom sensitivity" thanks a lot

I just checked now, and this game needs a separate calculation for each zoom level, so the same value will not work actually.
