LRMs and ACM is basically a sinkhole and useless. Just stop.

I reached my current goal (3 timberwolves for eliting) and for once am pretty sure which ones to keep. The Prime will leave, that CT is just awful, but S and D will stay. Next stretch-goal is 3 crows, imma gonna run a 2crow/2timber lance. Until that, i will continue 3timber/1jenner.

Well I was going to make it do other things with the omnipods. My CW deck for clans is awful. A nova felt like it could swap in for the trial stormcrow that overheats and threatens nobody when the poo poo hits the fan. I hate the trial direwolf also. I took a second timberwolf instead. I've never gotten more than 80 damage out of a trial direwolf. Huge target, no lines of fire on the CW defense/assaults to make use of gauss safely (and they require you to look at someone long enough to get cored), and the lasers make you take a huge goddamn nap while everyone focuses you down first, for some reason. Probably assuming you're a real direwolf and can hurt someone. Yolomon Wayne posted:I reached my current goal (3 timberwolves for eliting) and for once am pretty sure which ones to keep.

Same question for heads.

Some CTs of some Clan robots have energy slots. Ditto heads.

However, for $5 more I can get the Kodiak pack with the early adopter rewards, which has a lot more for my money's worth. Kodiak will be the best assault in the game hands down.

The hero is add-on-only, not standalone (from what i understood on the store page)

Or 15 for the "reinforcements" which give you an extra 2 variants. So... 50 bucks total for Normal pack + hero + reinforcements. I've dropped 20 bucks on lovely Beta access, I've dropped 35 for the Kodak and the reinforcements. I'm known to make lovely decisions with my money sometimes.

If you buy now you can spend ANOTHER 20 on the champion pack instead, giving you 3 basic variants, a champ, the hero, and 2 further basic variants for a total of SEVEN loving ARMORED BEARS! Theres a snow white joke in here i cant seem to find...

Krinkle posted:I just spent 3 million cbills and I don't know maybe 3000 GXP on the maxed out LRM10 cooldown modules and I regret it. The hunchback something J, even with all the perks and the module on top of it, even when it's making GBS threads out rockets, doesn't really kill things and is boring. I guess I don't have that target decay thing but that's 6 million and I already am giving up on throwing 1080 missiles at things that leave cover and then stomping around like a useless piece of poo poo. Good news! Mounting 3 AMS and a ton and a half of AMS ammo only costs you three DHS which, while somewhat painful, does not in fact render you a useless piece of poo poo. It was "better" back when you got 15% range (25% with the module) and 15% fire rate, instead of simply 30% fire rate, but a triple AMS Nova is certainly playable and can do good damage.

Can you spend that banked 30 days of premium time in 1 day chunks?

Premium time 'won' from contests is activated immediately, and does not impact banked time. A.o.D. posted:It won't have the XL Boar's head bonus structure or crit resistance. It might be as or less durable than the XL Boar's Head, even with the XL differences. Yeah, it comes down to hitboxes. If it has a huge as gently caress CT, it'll be very worthless, but as long as there is some balance for CT vs LT/RT, it should do okay.

If it's anything like piloting an Atlas then you will be target number one and both your side torsos will be gone within 1 minute of engagement

You will spend this the way you are supposed to, all at once, not how you would like it! (i agree it would be cool to do it in snippets, but then they would sell a whole lotta less premium)

I don't play much of this anymore, but if I feel like drinking and shooting the Golden Boy makes LRMs fun and profitable. It was maybe 5bux during whatever sale I bought it on and pulls a good 250-300k bills with a surprising amount of kills thanks to the tight lrm5 grouping. Just make sure to open your weapon doors (since it has them in its chest for some reason).

It's that time again where I'm building my money up again after buying the last mechs I really wanted. Someone sell me on a clan mech they like beyond the usual suspects or ebon jags, since the former are already under consideration and I already have the latter. No shadow cats.

If you don't have hellbringers I recommend those, they're really good mechs. For a clan assault I would say warhawk or an executioner. The former for versatility, the latter for a masc assault. Novas are pretty fun but there aren't many viable builds right now. The only good clan light is the cheetah or missile Jenner so yeah. Go hog wild.

Pattonesque posted:Not having any locked equipment on the Kodiak is going to go a long way Yeah good point, the KDK-3 is going to be able to mount 4AC-5 and 4 med pulse (or whatever variation), and the spirit bear will be able to take the atlas load out while going 90kph. All comes down to hitboxes and hardpoint locations in the end I suppose.
