i'm okay with the clan laser nerfs, fine whatever. i'm also okay with the IS armor quirk nerfs, sure, okay that's fine but if that c-gauss shake mechanic makes it into live... It would seriously be one of the oddest, shittiest, insane changes that PGI has ever made.

 HUNCHBUNCH  Hunchbunch night Wednesday, August 1st 2pm US Pacific 5pm US Eastern 10pm for Brits I'll try to get on earlier for the European crowd if I can Everybody grab your Hunchbacks, you know the drill. I'll get my vidcap going again Lets try to fill out the extra tonnage with vintage IS, Stalkers, Atlas, Awesome, Cataphract, Catapult, Jaeger, Dragon etc etc (poo poo it up with some LRM's if you are slow and get left behind) if it gets too awful we can grab meta filler Remember SQUAWK and show off your brightest plumage See ya there!

Are clan lasers even a problem anymore? Last few times I've had binge sessions on quickplay and group drops it seems like I'm not getting burned to death much by huge laser alphas, I've been getting LRM'd, ATM'd, and Dual Heavy Gaus'd, and either RAC'd or AC'd to death. edit - oh yeah, and MRM'd too. MRM's are solid. These proposed long laser durations are nuts. gfarrell80 fucked around with this message at 03:17 on Jul 29, 2018 |

A problem insomuch as they are the strongest weapons for the current quick/faction play meta, but A) the reasons that meta exists is more complicated than "Clan lasers are OP" and B) the weapons aren't nearly so broken as the terribles on the official forums would like to believe. A modest nerf to Clan Medium damage, maybe 6.5 for the ER and 6.75 for the MPL would be plenty, along with lowering HLL damage to 17. That would probably be enough, but PGI appears to be strongly opposed to the idea of incremental tuning. Fun note: the MAD-IIC was reported to be a loving nightmare on the PTS because it has the tonnage and hardpoints to run 6MPL/3LPL. It's a 69 point alpha with CDs and burn durations that line up almost perfectly, even with the most recent changes, so all this current round of nerfs accomplishes is creating a different laser vomit terror. Great job! Edit: and for the curious, someone on Reddit posted the quirks changes for IS mechs. Looks like the FNR changes aren't in yet.

Heh. I hope they appreciate that, if their goal truly is to make the game better for new players, what a pain in the rear end it is for new players to re-build their mechs every 12 months or so to change to the new meta of whatever PGI is bumbling towards.

Anita Dickinme posted:Someone post Hunchback builds with skill trees for players that don't know anything anymore... asking for a friend. 4G I run as AC20 (3 tons ammo) & 3 MPL. I went for all heat (operations and weapon tree) related skills, and threw in half the armor quirks. 4P I run as 6xMPL, 2 flamer. All heat skills plus did the 2x cool shot skills. The other ones seemed lacking in one way or another. Though I would love to try a heavy gauss gridiron.

4H with 5xML and an AC10 is probably worse than the builds you listed but still feels alright imo

4sp with shitloads of mrms is technically bad but it's the good variety of bad where you're basically doing weaponised bukkake on everything

I’d just cut the SPLs for more MRMs and heatsinks. All varieties of smol laser crap these days.

Surprise Giraffe posted:Bewilderingly you don't even have all 6 mls in the 4Ps shoulder! It's only logical. Nine is too many MLs to fire with the ghost heat penalty, but eight isn't so bad. So which one do you remove? An arm? If you only have one, why even bother having arm mounted lasers? Both? Then you have seven lasers, which is not enough. And given the HBK's appalling torso pitch, sometimes having two arm lasers is very useful; two MLs shoots down a UAV if your aim doesn't suck, for example. So then you remove it from the head? But that one is both the most likely to survive, and the highest mount. So then it has to be the shoulder, assuming you want an 8ML 4P.

You pack all the god drat mediums in a 4p. ALL OF THEM. Fire the torso mounted in a group, fire the arm mounted separately. 4Ps are great at laser duration and managing its heat is easily doable, especially with skills.
