Should I put the PPC range or cooldown module on my Muromets?

^^^^: Yeah, Hellbringers aren't very tanky. The real question is why you are putting PPCs on a Muromets?

It'll prevent your torso from following the mouse, allowing your arms to track anywhere within their movement range. This is mostly useful in mechs with lower arm actuators, and you can shoot off to the side while jammed up against a building/rock to cover an open CT.

Random Number posted:Drive both, use the one you like. I prefer the SRM4+A for accuracy and lower heat, but I use the SRM6 because I play my atlas like a giant loving wedge whose only purpose is to give my team 5-10 seconds off solid firing opportunities. asrm4s are probably slightly more effective on balance, but srm6's are more of a terror weapon because you get hit by them and your entire mech paper doll flashes red like a fire engine

4xasrm6 + ac20 with a 360 filled with heatsinks is still hot as balls. There is no reason to put mediums on an Atlas, unless it's an RS or Boarshead.

Kurzon posted:This is my Hellbringer: You are doing it wrong. if you're using ER Larges, one goes in the head, and the other goes in the first slot of the ECM torso. Your sniping weapons should be in the peeking slots. If you're using LPLs to snipe, then you should have them both in the ecm torso.

reminder that though helios and other cheats do exist, with certain robots it is difficult but possible to shoot them in the CT even if they're twisted away from you -- usually due to like a protrusion on the robot's geometry or something

Always leg Marauders. Since the CT is about 4 pixels wide.

Obvious and dumb question: When brawling in my Marauder or Ghost Dad, I just want to blast the gently caress out of their CT right? Is there any situations where I would want to take out a side torso or legs?

If you want to take out a weapon, or if it's an IS mechanical and you suspect it has an XL engine. You you want to dismantle the target because it's fun. I like the 3rd option

If I get into a dad vs dad situation I shoot for the SRM racks.

Is there any situations where I would want to take out a side torso or legs? Arcric cheaters, ravens, oxides our other annoying lights. King crabs often have leg ammo. gently caress other marauders. Trial atlas 7k always go for the xl.

Bait and Swatch posted:Anyone have a fun build for the hellbringer? For me the one that is the most fun is 2 AC5's and as many small pulses that will fit. But other builds include 2 large pulse and 4 er mediums (with lpulse cooldown and erm range mods they synch up well), or 4 medium pulse and 3 small pulse. Gauss and 4 or 5 er meds used to be a thing but is a bit poo poo now.

Please, please, PLEASE get on mumble when you plan to shoot robots. It's pretty horrible when I log into MWO see 30+ people online, but maybe 8 people on mumble. Don't be a pubbie.

veedubfreak posted:So there's no way to buy a cbill bonus Hellbringer without dropping You can buy the bonus hellbringer for 55 dollars by itself and you get none of the bonuses and only 3 mechs. The 90 dollar entry gets you the hellbringer and 2 other really bad mechs. What a deal! just don't buy any clan wave I or II packages. They're not worth the money.

The worst thing about the really bad clan mechs is that none of them have particularly good pod options, you can install any upgrades to improve them, and because they're clan mechs, PGI will never give them the ridiculous quirks necessary to make them even remotely effective. They're the deadest of dead ends. vvvv when I find a mech like that by itself I like to blast off one of its legs and spin in a circle in front of it while it does nothing. It's the closest I can manage to teabagging in this game. A.o.D. fucked around with this message at 00:55 on Jan 30, 2016 |

Rhymenoserous posted:Shoot marauders in the legs. Otherwise go for CT. Man I found a stalker today running 3x LRM-20s with what had to be almost totally stripped leg armor on Polar. I was pretty salty about getting that map with a 6ML cicada until I came over the rise and saw that guy. Leg kills on silly boat assaults feel good.

Melchior posted:When I came back I bought the daishi (Direwolf) Clan Invasion pack, and part of me keeps playing regularly to justify this decision. I mean the game is still fun as hell, but I got a lot of dogshit mechs for my investment (only the Nova and Direwolf were passable). I keep wanting to by the Jenner/Hunchback IIC packs ("It's only $20 each!" I tell myself) but thankfully I've managed to 'make do' with twenty other mechs in my collection. I guess it was a christmas present to myself. the hunchback pack is OK. i found the hunchie to be a bit on the fragile side, but then again I am used to my atlas. Shame you missed out on the early adopter, the jenner IIc-a mech is a cheeta on steriods minus the ECM

I ended up just buying the 3 marauders and stripped em all. Now to find all the best pieces and start leveling. 2uac5 and a ton of small pulses you say.
