Oh poo poo, I didn't know the dragon was getting a resize! I might have to snag two more variants to make my Flame a little snazzier. A smaller, sneakier fast heavy with an AC20 mounted at/slightly above cockpit level wouldn't be a terrible thing to have. Kind of on the fence about keeping the free Cicada or just treating it like a free engine and selling the husk. What cool fun builds are there for two other variants?

Whichever ones you can put a single large laser on, because that poo poo is funny.

Oxide chat from before: Don't run Artemis on it; you don't have the slots or the tonnage. The center torso has 2 missile hard points and 2 slots to fit, so if you run Artemis you're forgoing a whole weapon. I run a xl280, and with speed tweak go 140kph. I have 4xSRM4 and 5 tons of ammo. The only time I run out of ammo is if the match has gone on for a very long time or I've dealt around 800-1k damage. Either way, at that point you have more than pulled your weight.

I saw a Nova with 12 (IIRC) SPLs on it earlier tonight. First time I've actually been afraid of a Nova in this game.

A Nova is a great laser drill, you just have to have the trigger discipline and care to only get seen and to only fire when you're in range to carve a tiny hole in a motherfucker. edit: speaking of a nova i saw one with 8 flamers and four machine guns today

We should play "Guess the Mech" where you crop out everything but the weapon build and then we all have to guess what terrible robutt the pubbie is running it on.

The Loyalty one with the laser arms tacked on is a great moneymaker. Bonus: If you accidentally alpha, you explode instantly.

This is clearly the result of the superiorness of the Ice Ferret and not at all because the enemy pubbie team was god awful and I am running an incredibly hot build but was on alpine.

Yeah, all the ones I've seen up until now had just a generic bunch of larges/mediums, nothing particularly threatening. It turns out that many SLs/SPLs is a ton of damage and makes me want to stay the hell away. Blackjack chat: what're the three variants to get for mastery, and which is the one to keep? BJ-1, -1DC and -1X, keep the -1 (even though AC/2s are bad)? Also, I bought three Firestarters. Why can't they take an XL300? I have two spare, but no XL295s. My money.

The Loyalty one with the laser arms tacked on is a great moneymaker. it is really really fun and puts out insane DPS the only issue: no one can ever fire at you or you die instantly I hope they rescale it down significantly. it's literally the size of an 80-tonner

The Nova's engine hum is lovely, too. Though it really sucks when your arms fall off.

Devorum posted:Look upon my close range punch, ye mighty, and despair. The ECM spider definitely. That is the real one. The question of which other two are least painful to basic out. a 5v with 10-12 jump jets should be experienced by everyone at least once. With a BAP, its a uav on demand, and CT lasers means it can actually kinda zombie okay. All other variants have 6 jets and are thus inferior. Of those: I don't think i've ever seen anansi on the field, and the 5k's main perk is that energy cooldown. I found mine more tolerable with a single AC2 than machineguns. You want something similar to the laserlocust on it, though.

Girl is now Clan Smoke Jaguar. If you haven't gotten your free stuff yet, now is the time to Join girl. We will be rotating weekly through the clans for a while, then will continue with 30 day Jade Falcon contracts. The JF guys are pretty chill and good to play with when there are no goons around doing CW.
