Lights are viable for the reasons heavies and assaults are not. Lights are made for GOING FAST, actively supporting the team (spotting, flanking, flagcapping, reinforcing a side, ambushing, etc), and/or ganking enemy lights/meds, heavies/assaults, or already crippled mechs. Lights are also very dangerous when operating in a group, and can quickly take down mechs much heavier than they are.

If the enemy devotes focus to you and you can't slip away quickly enough, you will die very quickly. But if you can avoid attention long enough, or they decide that you're less of a threat than your team mates, you can rip into them

I own the Scorch and it just plain gets work done. It farms like a fucking champ. I was feeling down in the dumps about owning a Pakhet and a Warrant hero (huntsman & timberwolf) until ATM's landed. I use the stock 8/8 on the Pakhet with 3 medium pulse, 2 ATM 9's. The Warrant has 6 medium pulse, 2 ATM 6's. Both do really well now as ATM's reward more mobile mechs for hanging tough in the 120-350 range envelope.

I think if a gun was put to my head and someone said "buy an IS hero" it would be either the Dragon Flame hero (280 LFE, AC 20, medium laser x4, ATM 10) or the Marauder Bounty Hunter hero.

Is a WHM-6R a good mech for general fuckery? Seems like a decent enough design, and has a spread of different slots so you can always play around with what you're rolling with.


Also thinking of getting an Urbs. R60 or R63? I figure R63's better because of the quirks unless you want to run 4xMG.

desu mwo isn't that bad

It's the type of dumb old nigger pig molesters who play it that make it intolerable.

I'm not sure how they even survive in real life. Maybe they are on government assistance, or hooked up to actual machines that sustain them. I simply can't imagine the type of brain dead retards that inhabit quick play and shit it up for everybody else, actually functioning as human beings.

Reminds me of trying to help my boss install something on his computer. He's like 60~ and not very good with technology. There is no excuse to 'not be good with technology' if its your job to use it, but I digress. The man was having trouble clicking on the icons on his desktop.

He said to me, 'they won't click'. I thought maybe the mouse was broken or not plugged in properly, reasonable right? Well I could click on everything just fine, it appeared to be working. I asked him what was happening and to show me so I could fix it.

So he takes the mouse and I tell him to open up a program we use. He swings the mouse pointer around to about an inch away from the icon and furiously clicks on nothing. "See??! It wont click!" he says to me. Incredulous, I tell him to try clicking on the actual icon. He tries a couple more times, clicking everywhere but on the icon itself. "Its broken". he announces. Trying to be respectful, since he's my boss, I explain that the mouse cursor has to be on the actual icon graphic itself, not just nearby, when you click. "Well thats stupid! cant you change it?". No. I can't change it.

Now every time I spectate a spastic pubby shitbird wildly misplacing easy shots mechs at point blank range, I think of my boss clicking around everywhere but on an icon. Old, stupid, slow, fat, brain-damaged nursing home patients that should be in a grave, not publicly shitting themselves. It's so embarrassing and cringeworthy, I really can't even stand it.

>so defensive

Alright anon?

Anyone searching for MWO, Mechwarrior or Mech will find this general because it is in the OP list so I'm not sure what argument you even have here. You seem to be the only one that actually cares about this.

The OP could be cleaned up, fuck knows why the Kong Kast is still there, but we gain nothing by changing back to /mwog/ and lose nothing by staying this way. All it would satiate is your autism.

>>183780741
We gain a general name in line with it's headline game instead of being named after your furshit mumble buttbuddy for a start.

>>183780925
Anything else? That's a poor start.

Again, seems like you're the only one being autistic over this for purely personal reasons. People will still find this general if they are searching for Mechwarrior or anything related to it. The actual abbreviations don't mean a thing.

>>183780741
>general about "mechwarrior online"
>gain nothing from having it named "mechwarrior online general"
you can't be this retarded
when people search the catalogue for "mwo" or "mechwarrior", they don't find a general dedicated for the game, and that's enough to steer some people from looking further

>>183781075

In /mwog/ of course.

There's literally no reason to keep this general named after your gay lover over it being named after it's main game.

>>183781641
>most people just hit ctrl+f

I'm curious how you know this. Are you a 4chan admin? Could you perhaps link me to some user surveys at least?

I'm sure you must have something to substantiate that claim.

Even if it's true, why would we want someone who decides to give up on finding a general when they get search results for it?

Come back when you have any argument.

What did he mean by this?

Just so we're clear, I don't care what the general is named. I don't make the generals, I post here very rarely because there's nothing but retards who think XL Thunderbolts are a good idea posting here. It could be /mwog/, /gerg/, or /braincancer/ and it doesn't make a difference to me.

What bothers me is that you're shitting things up demanding the name be changed against the will of the majority. If people wanted it to be named /mwog/ the /mwog/ thread would have been the one that lived, not this one. You're wasting your own time and effort and have provided no good argument as to the benefits.

Where's the /mwog/ thread that was created even before this one was? I can't seem to find it on the general. Surely if people cared about the name they'd have gone to it.

I can pretty much guarantee almost no one in Kong gives a fuck whether it's /mwog/ or /gerg/, and the more you try to force it to happen the more likely it becomes you turn people against you solely to spite your autistic desires.

Objectively the most fitting name for this general would be "/btg/ - BattleTech General" because the only things we actually discuss are all BattleTech related. This means MWO, BattleTech, MW:LL and any other game in the franchise.

HPG dev shilling his game once every 3 months does not count for discussion, Armored Core people post in their own general and the rest of the games in the OP are actual, literal shovelware that are never mentioned other than by Vass when he brings up Steam player counts.

/btg/ is also not taken somehow, so we should grasp this opportunity while we still can.

It works p. well

>>183787929
Sure, but you really have nothing to lose by doing it. You are nearly maxed on leg armour and 20 head armour is overkill, nor do you need anymore than 1 armour on your right arm. You can easily fit the extra DHS in and don't really sacrifice much of anything to do so.

Seems like a reasonably fun build, I'll probably try it out later.

What's your favorite build for taking out components? Atm I love the annihilator with 2 heavy guass and a stub PPC, instant legs on mediums is pretty fun.

I only play with arms locked since all of my Mechs boat mostly in the torsos.

>>183793586
>desyncing your crosshair from the screen with torso-only weapons
I find that there's actually a benefit to doing this. At range it makes it easier to maintain a steady aim if you have arm lock off, because it smooths out the motion from adjusting your aim as the target moves. Having arms locked makes everything kinda jittery at longer ranges, so I typically only toggle arm lock for closer and faster targets.

Tried ass to mouth missiles. Big damage, as long as the target is a big slow assault with bad hitboxes pushing in open terrain and the range is just right for your max damage window and you have space to back up and the enemy assault is too slow to catch up in time and nobody is shooting at your exposed torsos while you're staring at the target and there's no AMS present and the enemies have no ecm to make your lockon take ten times longer and the map is cold so the ass to mouth heat isn't out of control.

>>183799552
I think they're actually pretty easy to use, just aim and click, accelerate back into cover if you are expecting an incoming alpha. It's not a skillful play style and it definitely punishes you for good habits (torso twisting an alpha on your Bushwacker, pausing to avoid a jam instead of accepting fate) but the damage values and impulse do more than compensate.

>>183799316
It's utter garbage.

>>183799552
And also how they're ridiculously powerful on lighter mechs, a waste on assaults and really good against assaults. 10/10 MWO heat mechanics do it again

You aren't taking more advantage of your quirks by switching to ERMLs, the point is MLs get a nice buff on it.

You can run ERMLs if you want but the only reason to is if you're running a Gauss on it. Otherwise MLs will do much better for the lower heat.

Actually I don't know if the ML quirk applies to ERMLs, but the mechlab will tell you.
Either way it's still true you don't need to run the ERs on it.

Definitely not because literally all pulse lasers were trash until the Clans arrived, outside the SPL being memetacular on the HBK-4P and AWS-9M in closed beta.

Otherwise sure, MPL + AC20 is typically a great combo, but that doesn't mean it's always the best choice and the Bounty Hunter is one of those cases. Honestly though the UAC10 is a better fit on the Bounty Hunter than the AC20 as well. Even an AC10 is better really.

>>183809686
shouldn't be brawling in the bounty hunter in the first place when the other variants do it better

>>183809781
Exactly what I said, hence why the UAC10 is a better choice. The Bounty Hunter is a mid range mech through and through.

ERML is a meme, you should've seen that coming if you play clans and know the joys of any mech with lasers being a walking volcano.

Can't support someone that can't support themselves. I'll help an assault no matter what weight class I am if they know what the fuck they're doing, but the majority of assault players are mouthbreathing idiots. If they can't do anything worthwhile, the only value they have for me is serving as a very flashy distraction for the enemy team.

Are brawling assaults deader than ever is it just me?

I don't own a banshee, but I could see something like this working in the hands of someone more experienced with them than me
Something like 3 weapon groups: 1 for each side and 1 for top heavy pepsies

>>183815510

You have to be a sneaky snabby crab and hide around corners waiting to dump your double AC20 + Pepsi into some faggot attacking your team mates

>>183817512
If you put lasers in a Banshee, only the first slot on both torsos is mounted on the hips. Looks like they really don't want anyone putting high mounted pepsi on it.

>>183819056
why would they? high mounts are cancer to the game, fuck hill humping

>>183815828
I said that was in my slow King Crab assault you fucking moron. In my Hunchies and Jagers, I average 4-600 a game. It just gets boring playing mediums and standing behind an LRM Atlas for 20 minutes.

Have you really never noticed it? It's the sole reason I've never bought a banshee. I saw it on release and realized I could never enjoy it.

You can dump the single jump jet for a bigger XL if you want 75kph or another two heat sinks.

Anyone have any good Kaiju builds with nutechies?

I want this meme to end. Increase in heat mitigation or even speed is preferrable. Or maybe even ammo in this asym meme à la GMan129 (may he stomp in heaven) builds case.

>>183826020

I like it just because uphill is such a bitch in an assault but that's just preference rather than optimization.

I've been thinking of giving it a try lately, but I wasn't sure if it was worthwhile. I think I'll do it as soon as I have the cbills for it.
