Ok, i'm coming back to this pile of poo poo, who do I need to talk to in order to get into a goon unit? I'm Ko Tengu in game and also probably on Mumble if I still have it installed.

YOu need way more engine and also less AMS, you're going to get wrecked into that.

Sure, I need another Cicada to sit next to my lovely PPC sniper and my mediocre hex pattern one.

Vorenus posted:Champion, Hero, Invasion, doesn't matter. Basic is by chassis, elite by weight. So, you need any three Cicadas to basic out the Cicadas. Then, for some reason, you only need three medium-class mechs to Elite your Cicadas. However, when you go to unlock the Master slot on one of those Cicadas, you will need to own three Cicadas to do so. What the gently caress are you talking about? You just get 3 of your chassis of choice, and once you get all the Basic skills for each variant, you can then put points into the Elite skills, and then once all three variants have that unlocked you get to dump a lot of points into getting the Master slot.

Yolomon Wayne posted:But how does that work with other mechs? Mechs only benefit from getting the basic/elite on their own chassis. When I'm flying my Kit Fox it doesn't give a poo poo that I have a mastered RVN-3L in the mech bay next to it, it's still only at 7/8 of basic.

Pretty sure they're the same except the stock omnipods. Clan mechs are easy to master out since you just throw your favorite omnipods on and it's the same as your usual one.

jBrereton posted:I feel like my first bought mech should maybe not have been a Locust. I mean I spent about the chassis value again making it slightly less slow and adding a single heat sink. Is that just A Thing with a lot of lights? I think my RVN-3L cost like 15m cbills?

Pattonesque posted:there are a few light builds that do not use max engines, but they are generally snipey builds like this, where you can park 800m away and only need your speed for repositioning and an emergency return to the blob That's still a max engine XL, just the 4X has a lower engine cap.

A Nova is a great laser drill, you just have to have the trigger discipline and care to only get seen and to only fire when you're in range to carve a tiny hole in a motherfucker. edit: speaking of a nova i saw one with 8 flamers and four machine guns today

The Hero patterns and colors are also their default, so you can't put them on a different mech.

I mean if you take it one part at a time, yes Dai means big and Shi means death, but they were named by anime nerds in the early 90's and late 80's. Ryo(u)ken probably also comes from the fact that Japanese romanization is hard and lovely.

Yolomon Wayne posted:Why cant they have matchmaking like literally every other PvP centric game out there and NOT contantly 99/100 games pit 12 randoms vs. 8+ premades? It does, group drops are a totally different queue, most people who group drop do it as a lance and that's how you can sometimes get loving 6 assaults trudging behind your mostly medium 10 man goon group.

Sard posted:The best thing about MWLL was the lack of a mech lab. I hope future BT games take note and keep a balance between appealing to customization and established flavor. MWLL is the only Battletech anything without a mech lab. Customizing your mechs and tanks and whatever is such a huge part of Battletech that removing it would be dooming your game.

The cicada is a pretty good rear end-shooter, I'd probably go for the 3M first for the ECM, and then grab either the 2A or 2B according to if you like MPL or MLas better.
