Yeah, doing some basic math all you need is to average a little over 2 CW matches per day of the event and get something like 800 match score total between them to max out the rewards. It's certainly an investment, but not nuts, and if you max out the higher ranked rewards theres some serious MC in play.

Some of the Tukayawhatever rewards are supply cache keys. Which are worthless unless you get supply caches, which are random and nearly impossible to get. And you can get like 35 of the things. That you cant use. What

Lol supply caches are not impossible to get. I'm sitting on a dozen of the damned things and that's after selling any that didn't have a mech that I either wanted or was worth selling.

CHICKEN SHOES posted:yes, I was running an LRM kit fox don't hate That's pretty legit to be honest. You can fit at many LRMs as a Catapult with 1200 rounds of ammo on a Kitfox and have a TAG. For a mech that's 30 tons and moves 100something KPH that's not so bad. It does good damage for a 30 ton mech and you're not depriving your team of armor or the ability to draw fire any more than you otherwise would, and you can still take ECM so you can shield a teammate or two while you do it. It's one thing to waste a heavy or assault slot for your team making GBS threads it up with LRMs, but on a Kitfox? Yeah, loving do it.

I'm down for some scouting, I actually bought and mastered the GRF-3M and GRF-2N in preparation for a CW event. http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=128&l=5e91ee24f99a315aff4e9b9bdf97549881d33128 http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=300&l=19eb7ea94a2d48b550f8ae423471935f097f6721

Thanks dude. I like the deadsiding AC/20 + 4MLs the most, but I have a bunch of similar mechs already so think I'll go with the SRM/MG/LPL because that's a pretty unique build for the Inner Sphere.

Is it better to run the griff 2n with srm 4? I go all in on SRM 6's with 2 jj's, 1 heatsink, and armored arms in pub queue, just felt way underpowered with the 4's. Not sure if that translates to scouting

And the MAD IIC isn't an Omni, it doesn't have a Prime. various cheeses posted:Huh maybe I'll update it and give it another shot. It's been about a year. Am I still in WoL? I don't remember.

gently caress do I hate Locusts. They're not even a huge threat, but they are infuriating. I suppose that's exactly the what the mech should be, but still!

That one's probably the hardest to get used to out of all of them, because it's all about opportunity. Yes you can facefight an assault and probably win (if you carve components well) but you'll get trashed doing it. On the other hand, if you play the consummate 2nd line fire support, you will wreak unholy hell the whole game. I've carved 19 components in a single match with it.

Ever got harassed by a locust while in a SRM assault like the stalker STK-5M or CP-10-Q? It's pretty much the worst mech you could face in one of those.
