LPL builds work p. well in CW I think, and so do the 3LL builds on things like Enforcers. If you're on your game you can make sure those legs are nice and toasty before everyone gets into brawl range, and if you stay on overwatch you can really do workCyrano4747 posted:Hunchback 4SP with 2xSRM6A, 2 tons of ammo, and 3 MPL eats strormcrows for lunch. yeah I should specify that you can do some personalization on the builds I posted and they all work well, if not better than the original. They're mostly starting points -- you may want different laser types, STD over XL, flamers, etc.

Highlights from tonight's CW invasion group before I had to step about because my stomach stopped letting me ignore it: Being better at the Gauss Jager than I thought I was Commoners for Yell Boss 2016 (while he was deaf/mute to the entire democratic process.) Getting promoted to Leader and going mad with power by hitting the launch button. Mist Lynx being the most OP mech in the game by dying to a Base Defense turret. Our one SML one Leg ACH pitfight getting cut short by accidentally shooting both legs out of the second enemy ACH. A++ would goon again

Pattonesque posted:-3M. 4 SRM4A in the right torso, some jumpjets, amazing quirks This is why the 3M eventually overtook the 2N for me with the Griffins. The 2N is loving good and the ECM is valuable but the 3M is just a better killing machine because you basically shoot out a single vertical column of death from the one torso that destroys whatever component it touches.

Great Beer posted:Wammy 7S yea/nay Aside from the armor needing tweaked it looks like a good take on one of the metamechs variants (you're 12kph's faster in exchange for using SRM4's instead of 6's and a STD engine basically) so go for it. Brawling is the best.

The 7S was fun for me for a while. A STD build makes it a very sturdy brawler. But there's a lot of mechs that do a similar build, better. It's still good mind you, just not as fun as say... The 6D or the BW

Today I learned that if you do the ER large overwatch game in a pub CW match some pubbies will literally accuse you of nonparticipation Also it's super easy to win if the clans put LRMs on all their heavies

Good games last night guys, it finished off the invasion missions for me. I decided against my better judgement and went with the Warhawk. The EbonJag is clearly the better more sensible choice but the assault looks like the bigger flashier more fun choice.

Do Pulse Lasers count as "Lasers" for quirks, or strictly as "Pulse Lasers"? Like, does "Laser Duration -10%" incluse pulses or just beams?

Yolomon Wayne posted:Do Pulse Lasers count as "Lasers" for quirks, or strictly as "Pulse Lasers"? Both. If it only applies to regular lasers it'll say "STD. LASER DURATION"

Thanks for putting up with my idiocy last night, everyone - had some hilarious matches that reminded me why I play this drat game in the first place. Now to get everyone to carry me over the finish line for the event so I can get my King Cash Crab.

Yolomon Wayne posted:Do Pulse Lasers count as "Lasers" for quirks, or strictly as "Pulse Lasers"? General quirks apply to all weapons in class. A Quirk for large lasers would work for regular, ER, and Large Pulse lasers. If a quirk says it applies to a specific weapon system like standard, ER, or Pulse, then it only applies to that.

Commoners posted:I've taken my 2 ac/20 blackjack 1dc into scouting. You just blast things in the face and laugh as they die instantly. How do you build this? If you take 3 tons of ammo an a 225 XL you're left with half a ton for armor. That's enough to put a point of armor on everything, with maybe a smidge extra for the torso: BJ-1DC XL225 That build will give you 21 bullets, or 10 and a half shots of pinpoint 40 damage. Dropping the engine down to 200XL gives you 1.5 tons of ammo/armor to add: BJ-1DC XL200 Which will get your torso front armor into the double digits, and also give you 24 bullets for 12 double shots of AC20 + AC20. Is that what you're running?

Currently underwhelmed by the 5xstreak crow (with artemis this time) in scouting. I cant really kill anything, even lights take several full salvoes with 6 seconds cooldown, and if another medium shows up, im pretty much dead.

They basically exist to take player skill out of the equation to easily chump lights. If you're good with SRMs, do what I did and replace them with 5x ASRM6s. You blow the gently caress out of folks.

Hey, I played this way, way back in closed beta I think? When there were 4 mechs and you couldn't really change them. Anyway I reinstalled it and did the tutorial but I don't know anything beyond what's in the OP. I didn't see a mumble URL, do you just use CTS?

Someone tell me how scouting works. When i was on attack, the dropship came and i stood underneath it and nothing happened. And i had at least 2 intels captured. When im on defense, the guy runs into the zone and boom- we lose. Is there something i have to do when the ship arrives?
