But they simplified this to all have the same damage, regardless of type. So some manufacturers had multi-shot normal ACs which equaled the power of an AC 20 but also had single shot versions firing one massive slug. UAC fired even more dakka which equates to a double shot. Edit: Pulse lasers were also written kind of like this. Some pulse laser fired a pulse beam while some fired multiple shots. They all did the same thing dmg wise.

Gonna try that quad lb10 on the KDK-3 in a few. Looks like a lot of fun imho

It would be nice if the regular clan AC had single shot, i really hate the dakka AC20.

The spirit bear is pretty good as well. The 2 isn't as good as those two but you can do a SB build minus the masc but with jump jets. I think those are the three to get to mastery with. The 1 seems like it could be a laser boat but it would need to be doing so from a few hundred meters away. It doesn't play like an atlas. You shouldn't be leading the charge. If you want trash go back and look at the Archer.

I think it requires a playstyle that only semi-exists in this game, because it's like a weird combo of the Gargoyle, Executioner, and Victor. Like, an AC/20/SRM Victor should be a fantastic quick brawler, but it's not scary enough. the SB is super scary at chasing people down and unloading its huge alpha

That alpha is loving bonkers. I had a game where I hosed up and ended up finding the big enemy push right at the beginning of the match. I went down quick but managed to get 250 damage. If you don't just charge like an idiot you can flank like a mothetfucker and tear poo poo up. SB is nuts with it since you can hit the mid 80s with masc. I basically play it like my hunchbacks only huge and with three times the firepower.

Honestly I think they will really come into their own in a few weeks when each team doesn't have four. A kodiac working the flanks while an atlas or something else tanky draws aggro could be nuts. Imagine a 4 man of an angry dad a ghost dad and two bears.

# ? May 18, 2016 17:41 |

I don't think we'll have to wait long for the Kodiak heavy teams to simmer down. The interest is dying quick because people can't seem to wrap their heads around the fact that the Kodiak is not a mech to push with. They see that Atlas sized hulk and go "Oh yeah time to lead the charge". So you end up with KDK-SB pilots MASCing their way right into a blob and getting reamed. Then you have the small minority which understand that the KDK is a weapon boat meant to lay down some heavy fire from just beyond the front line.

Messing around with clan drop decks and you can bring BearDad EbonJag StormCrow and Cheetah. That doesn't sound too bad actually and maybe even swap out the Ebon for a Hellbringer for ECM.

Best I've had with the 3r is 4 lpl. They're all in the arms but it isn't that big a liability. They never seem to draw too much fire.

MASC is very good for two things you don't list here. 1. You can go from regular speed forward to full masc reverse nearly instantly. You can nope your way out of a bad corner or hill and not take critical amounts of damage. 2. You can change direction very quickly by using masc during the turn. It seems to boost any movement, not just speed. With the SB shotgun loadout, you can dump, duck, and cover amazingly well.
