Q_res posted:Yeah, if you're going to do an LRM Atlas at least do it right. Get an AS-7S and run four LRM5s w/ Artemis. the number of bear daddies ive seen running 4 ALRM10 recently is utterly baffling to me. is it on some cookie cutter build? because 3 ALRM15 is more tubes, like 6% less heat, and .5ton lighter. People just dont know how to build their mechs.

Small and Blue posted:I elited mine with a 4xmedium laser 3xASRM6 build. Not the tankiest heavy for a brawler but it gets the job done, throw in some flamers too if you feel like it. Metamechs recommends a 5xlarge laser boat so that probably works too. thus far i've been running it 4xerll 2xml and a 320. not terrible as things go, but i can tell i'm not utilizing it's potential.

Artificer posted:AMS afficionados and missile haters, thoughts on this Nova build? if you're dead set running those ams points this should do better for you. NVA-B roughly the same overall dps, higher immediate damage output with balanced lasers, ammo out of more vulnerable areas. this is absolutely a hit and run nova though. if you want to actually win a fight you're going to have to suck it up and put on the S torsos with those quad MGs. at least for this type of build.

Augh the super blatantly obvious helios users piss me off the most. This guy was trying to ppc snipe, and he was so bad. For the first half of the game he couldn't hit the broadside of a barn. Then halfway through the game he suddenly, miraculously even, lands 3 seperate headshot kills. And he wasn't even firing his ppcs together so you can say "oh no, maybe it was a lucky shot." Nope. He landed 6 seperate ppcs all in heads on a fast assault and 2 mediums, all moving. In 45 seconds.

 6 flamer Locust. My game consisted of flaming our executioner till our marauder shot me with a gauss, then flaming him till he shot me again and i died. Still no loss in skill rating. Also, I got the cache. What the poo poo do i have to do to lose rating?!?

aniviron posted:The jumpjets on all three of those are bad, in a not-worth-the-tonnage kinda way. Been playing a lot of the EXEs lately, mastering them, but you don't really get enough height on it to actually poptart; if you try, you're not going to have enough fuel to get high enough & then let go of the jets to stop the reticle from being dumb. The Direwolf and Kodiak get even less height since they weigh more and that's how that works in this game. The Supernova would be a little better off since it's lighter (25.4m instead of 24.06m) but it maxes out at three jumpjets, so it's got 19ish meters of height instead. (Side note: despite being saddled with eight tons of bad jumpjets, the Executioner is actually pretty good, and more importantly, it's really really fun. The MASC adds a lot of value for four tons, just starting to get speed tweak now and it goes 90 with MASC. Been having a lot of great games with it, it's a nasty brawler.) If youre trying to use the JJs on an EXE for poptarting, youre doing it so wrong. Jumpturns in combat and general map traversal all the way. Fuckin no-one expects an assault to drop out of the sky behind them from a roof. Also, if you have ERLLs or PPCs, the jets are exactly powerful enough to get you to good sniping spots, as long as you know how to work em. On river city I run around on top of the apartment buildings or citadel all the time. e: also, those prints actually look pretty good. Can't wait to see them properly done up.

aniviron posted:I'm not really a jump sniping kinda guy, two of my three EXEs have optimum ranges under 300m; trying it was mostly for science. That said, I still don't feel like they provide much utility for how heavy they are. It takes eight tons and you still can't get from out of the canyon in Canyon Network unless you take a run up with MASC and even then you need to pick a shallow part of the cliff. Horizontal traversal isn't much better, I haven't been able to leap from one side of the canyon to the other even with MASC, though I did not have speed tweak last time I tried it. The jets are so slow and so floaty that it's almost always faster to go around small obstructions than jump over them as well. The jets do give some use, but for the weight it's terrible utility, and I'd much prefer a version with just MASC. While I understand where you're coming from, I do believe that (and im aware this makes me sound like an rear end in a top hat) youre just using them wrong. Hop in the mumble with us some time when i'm playing my EXE. I sprint and jump all over the map in that thing, outmaneuvering and outraversing some our mediums, much less our heavies or assaults. "How the hell did you get up there" is a pretty common refrain. Just tonight I killed 2 marauders alone in like 30sec because they literally couldnt look up to shoot back at me while i ruined them with my arm lasers.

Yay! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FISZmZSJw_s e: actually, the first kill shown in the match is him destroying Azuth, but I think it counts! Because I'm the one that murdered him. Buahahaha!
