Picked up the Whammer Black Widow on sale. 2xUAC5 2xAC5 feels good, but I'm thinking about just replacing the UACs with regular AC5s. I hate jams.

I would recommend the ACH to learn how to light. ECM allows a measure of forgiveness for mistakes in positioning. You are pretty much stuck with small pulse lasers in an ACH, but that is fine because 6x spl is strong as fuck and annihilates mechs with open components or from the back.

JIIC series is probably the most versatile. You have the option of SRMs, med lasers, or small pulses. You can even put a 6x6 SRM on a JIIC for a 72 point alpha strike, but I don't recommend that build for anything but fucking around, since it is too slow and hot.

If you decide you truly enjoy light piloting, you can branch out into locusts and spiders, but they require good map knowledge and careful positioning to really shine.

Spider 5k 1lpl 4 mg build is a very potent "clean up" mech to finish off a damaged team. 5D is an ok ll/erll sniper, and has ecm to help out.

Locust 1e is a fantastic spl assassin or ml skirmisher. 1m is the same thing but with 1 laser stuck on its torso. 1v is the poking master with a single LPL.

Raven series is pretty gimped by the resize and requirk, but 3L still makes for a good ERLL sniper, and 2X/4x still makes for a great LL skirmisher.

3L is also the best NARC platform in the game due to bonuses, but the usefulness of NARC is questionable.

After a hundred hours of various light piloting, my favorite light mech is the Locust 1e with 5 or 6 medium lasers. The perfect run and gun harasser, and my favorite mech to carry matches in, if the team fucks up badly. Pic related.

Thanks for the advice. I picked up an ACH Prime and am having a blast with it so far. I had a few leftover MC, so I went ahead and picked up the Locust Pirates Bane. Not sure how good of a variant it is, but I know it comes with good engine that I can drop into another chassis.

I left out all the other lights for a reason. It's because they fucking suck for various reasons, mostly they are too slow or another mech does what they do better.

2ppc panther is a meme build and probably the only thing the mech can do 'well'. It's also slow.

>>163811407

PB can be pretty good, especially in solo q. I run mine with 4 spl, 2mgs, and 1 ton of mg ammo, and ecm of course.

You can play it just like a cheetah for the most part, but imo it does the roll of first strike assassin even better, due to its speed.

Flank wide, and come in behind the slow assaults. You can often kill oblivious potatoes before they know what is happening if you drill their rear CT away.

Just remember not to shoot armored components with the mg's, since they do practically nothing.

I might oughtta try that PB build. I'm running the stock build, which is about the same just with non-pulse lasers. I might try to fit pulses, but I might have to knock the engine down a couple of pegs (I believe PB comes stock with an XL 190).

Just remember that big and slow mechs are total glass jaws in this game. You're the biggest and slowest target, your torso twist and accel/decel speeds are shit, and even unorganized pubs will focus fire on you unless there's an even bigger and more obvious target standing next to you. You also need to predict/guess what's going to happen next and start moving to the right position before it happens.

Even the most quirked fatlases with all the structure bonuses in the universe and critical chance reduction get blown the fuck out fast when multiple enemies are focusing them, you always have to attack with superior numbers, superior lines of fire and superior firepower. Otherwise you'll get shrekt because you can't avoid return fire and getting back into cover or to your team takes like ten times longer than it does for fast mechs.

For example if you're boating autocannons in an assault mech, you should try to cut lines of sight so you and your target are going 1on1faggot by the very least and you can pummel the dog shit out of them without taking extra damage from something else in return.

o just don't like relying on ONE armour section too much. even with good torso twisting you still end up taking too much dmg on them >>163846675
>>
>>163846594
mark 1 targeting comp gives you all those basic benefits for just 1 ton and 1 crit slot. Most importantly, you're getting 4% extra range and notable increases in laser critical chance.

For simply laser weapons, you don't need a larger targeting computer, as you're only getting beam range and miniscule increases to critical chance.

Pretty sure it's evident that PGI is getting kickbacks from HBS using the Mech models to speed up development time. Is that something that needs to be clarified if it hasn't already?

From the Kickstarter update it souned like they were pining for the Hatchetman which seems to imply they aren't making their own any time soon. Probably waiting for Alex to cook up some concept art but it likely won't happen if it isn't in MWO, and there isn't a reason to do that if the hatchet is just a big shield arm instead of functional.

>>163875947

Truth. Back in "Ye Olde Beta" you could turn the Awesome into a Charger. AWS with 400XL engine and boated lasers was meta as fuck. Knock down anything other than an atlas cause you were not a dragon and then shove 8 lasers up their asshole. This was back when XL was a straight upgrade because torso destruction wasnt really a thing beyond hit locations for IS and clans were merely a boogeyman for the future and KONG hadnt stolen a sip of the Roberts Koolaid..

>>163881724

I used to feel the same way, but after playing on it too much I finally learned all the little paths.

There is a ton of cover and many routes for flanking that do not expose you to pokes or lurms.

The problem is that too many pugs leave the trenches too early and fight in open fields, when it is not necessary at all.
>>
>>163884907
One of the worst parts of memelands is if you're in a build with low range and/or low mounts, so you can't really do shit while your potatoes slowly get whittled down, and waiting for the brawl just turns into waiting for death.
>>
>>163885153
>low range and/or low mounts, so you can't really do shit

I regularly break 800 damage in spl crow on memelands.
>>
>>163885153

Unless you are in the fattest of fat ass brawling assaults, I have to disagree. Anything that moves medium-fast and can boat SRM's can deliver an absolutely deadly flanking attack, if they use available cover and move with purpose.

Direwhales and fatlases tend to get left behind though, but that is the unfortunate reality for them on pretty much every map.

strip mechs (excluding armor) that you're not currently playing.
As a side note, when the new skill tree set is launched down the road, and refunds happen on CBills spent on modules and Exp and Gxp is refunded as well, only the Exp and Gxp spent on unlocking things will be refunded.

So for fuck's sake, do NOT master out a mech chassis and then continue to play it solely, racking up exp that can't be spent on further unlocks. It will go to waste. Continue buying new mechs and unlocking their skill options so you get the maximum refund from the new trees when it happens this year.
>>
>>163884907
The key to winning this map in Pugland is understanding that your team and theirs will have some impatient faggots that and bound and determined to take free damage.

It is your job to coordinate with your team to kill off their impatient losers faster and then roll the enemy team damned fast. Aggression, division, and keeping track of their LRM boats for easy kills is everything.

That's okay. Most mechs cannot make 16 even if you counted MGs as half. Even a King Crabby will have 2(3B + 3B) + 2M + 2E, though the AMS does become a problem since it would make it 17.

So UAC/5's
I'm running two on my Marauder IIC A since I had them from another mech. I understand they jam alot BUT they can be usable no?
AC/5: 5 damage / 1.66 seconds = 3.01 dps
UAC/5: On average jams every 6.67 shots fired in cooldown resulting in a 5 second jam time: 6 shots (first shot + 6.67 fast shots) * 5 damage / (6.67 * 0.83 seconds + 5 seconds jam) = 38.33 damage / 10.5361 seconds = 3.638 dps
So using Fire Control, if I set the fire rate to 83 for the two UAC/5s I can get a burst fire for the maximum damage but at the chance to jam, though this fire rate seems to be the best so far, on the other hand due to the fire rate of the UAC/5's being 1.5 seconds I can set the fire rate to 1500 that way I can fire them constantly and never jam, but I'm basically just using heaver AC/5's at that point so is it even worth it, or should I take my chance on the jam and get 3 shots from each UAC/5 for the increased damage?

That's why you gotta play an Arctic Cheetah, so you can carry even when your shitters are old men with puckering vaginas.
>>
>>163948003
Sparky was never money only. It was released a while after the Griffin was released.

Lacerator is coming for MC by March 2017. Next hero mech sale will most likely be during Easter, Black Friday or Christmas 2017.

IF you want the Lacerator, I highly suggest you just pay the real money for it. Buying it for MC, even at a 50% discount, will be more expensive than buying it with real money. With a 20% extra MC package, it just about breaks even.

>>163949580
The worst thing is that potatoes tend to gravitate towards the big mechs, you know, the ones that are meant to take a beating.

Only problem is, the retards get so spooked after getting hit by a laser or two and just piss themselves behind a hill for the whole match.
>>

potatoes also gravitate towards the small mechs because they think nobody can see or hit them

i'm so sick og getting entire teams of potatoes so dumb no matter how well i do i cannot carry anything.

i just died from having a teammate decide to routinely keep blocking my shots as i was unloading on a mechand jkeep crossing my line of fire. no matter what i did the retard thought the only position his mech could possibly be in was to sit its asshole on my ebon jags face. so i got to eat arm and side hits until i died
>>
>>163950571
Being an assault leading the nascar while your other assault teammate keeps shooting your back with his lurm kodiak because he needs to shoot every enemy that is spotted

Or big mechs that suddenly do a full stop and make the whole team get stuck in a really bad choke point with no cover like on a ramp

People too chicken to get on the base square when the last one or two enemies are capping your base

People who jumpjets backwards into your face constantly so you cannot shoot shit

people who do not use the "spot the enemy" command wheel command

because when I suspect usage is high, I use it on a different setup to watch suspicious tracking, it is incredibly obvious when someone is perfectly tracking your unspotted mech through terrain from 800m away, waiting for you to leave cover

even more obvious when playing a light, is watching large mechs track you and break off to move towards you, despite being unspotted.

Believe me or don't, but the best way to catch ESP users is to use ESP also, when you believe it is happening.
>>
have 1k MC

get which hero or (C)?
>>
Oh, hello there.
I'm a complete noob here, just started playing MWO a little while ago, only ever played MW3 without the x-pac.
I saved my starting cash and picked up a Shadow Cat-B because I hate taking 500 LRMs up the ass per match. I've been most successful with 2x C-ER PPC, poking out around stuff and firing at anything that moves.
I also run a Lct-1V and 3S although I guess the 3S makes me a fag with 2 LRM5 and a shitty laser.
I recently picked up a Black Knight, and I kinda feel like I threw those C-Bills down the drain.
Any good Black Knight builds? Do I just load him up with LPL/MPLs and sit in a little dip waiting to melt people? I usually like to poke over ridges and around cover but the hardpoints on BK are all on his nuts and he's too slow to poke half his body out.

So should I just sell this nigger and buy a Catapult? Help me out here.

How big of a deal is LRM size? Should I be picking lighter LRMs for a tighter spread, or do LRM20s behave about the same?

I want a weapon to use like Streak 6s on the IS side.
>>
>>164036836
You can get a pirate's bane but it's not even the best locust. Just save up your mc until you have more for the next sale.

>>164036860
Black knight is good only at laser vomit. You just have to play cautiously to not get fucked by peeking mechs due to your low hardpoints.

>>164037501
Lrm 20s and 15s have the same spread now, but unless you're tagging or narcing something the spread is still awful. 5s and 10s are where it's at.

Don't use lrms on anything that doesn't have strong missile quirks.
>>
>>164037501
c strk 6's are clan tech, so can't be put on is mech.s tighter spreads are much better, but boating lrm 5's is dumb because a single ams will happily eat 3/5 >4/5 missiles out of a salvo.
if you MUST lurm, about the biggest you can go is 15's with artemis and a bap. and even then srm bombing is FAR more powerful.
>>
>>164037501
One of the best lrm builds is the A1 with 6lrm5s. The other is the 8R with 3lrm15s. What does that mean? It means you boat whatever you want but you need a bunch of them to do anything.
>>
>LRMs need kwerks

One group of 6 for the right side (exclude just the left arm)
One group of 4 that is just the arms (for heat, or to shoot down UAVs or if you need to aim high/low)

Groups 1 and 2 are realistically all you need to play it, if you are managing ghost heat correctly then you just press the opposite one once your slow arm gets out of cover.

You can do whatever with the other three groups, but that setup is simple and effective. I usually group my weapons so i don't have to think too much about them.

I've played only twice, once to try the tutorial and once in a server with 3 other people, and it was ok. Just imagine you're kind of playing a light mech since everything is so mobile.

Does Marauder have MASC, JJs and 95 tons of armor?

No, but marauder runs better without needing a buggy MASC, does not need jump jets, and the difference in armour between an 85 and a 95 tonner is negilgible when you take into account how much better the Marauder IIC tanks damage.
>>
>>164116170
It has dynamic endo instead of lmao locked ferro, adjustable engine size, good hitboxes, no gorilla arms, no 12 tons and 8 crits of locked junk, it's RT crit space isn't crippled by random locked heatsinks and it's not the tallest basketball player in the galaxy.

You do realize that if you try and jump jet + MASC at the same time, or unlock aim with your arms, your keybindings will get stuck in the last commands you input?

I play a shadowcat regularly since it came out and I've had zero issues ever.

God the combined intelligence of your average IS 12 man unit premade is lower than your average Clanner pubbie, domination mode and they all decide to take sniper builds.

When do they taka away my trial mechs
Am I retarded for liking assault mechs?
>>
>>164147307

Trial mechs are never taken away, you just can't level or customize them. Also sometimes they'll change the trial mechs up a bit so you won't always have access to the same mechs.

and eh, plenty of people like assaults but people will be trying to stick it into your butt.
>>
>>164147307
Do you mean when do they rotate trial mechs? Because you can always play trials.

The answer to when they rotate is "sometime, whenever, who knows."
>>
>>164147629
>plenty of people like assaults but people will be trying to stick it into your butt.
Trying? no. There is no try

I touch the butt
>>
>>164147307
Trial mechs will always be available, even if you have a gorillion of your own mechs.
Assaults are proportionally underpowered in MWO, and along with lights the hardest weight class to play properly, but if you know how to do it and avoid the shitmechs they'll still be pretty stronk.

>>
So when did Large Lasers become meta?

Why every time I come back to this game its worse?
>>
>>164147979
Some people like a particular weight class more than others, that's just personal taste and preference.

If you buy a good medium or heavy for your first mech you can't really go wrong though.

Hunchback, Clan Hunchback, Stormcrow, Griffin, Blackjack, Catapult, Warhammer, Timberwolf, Ebon Jaguar, and Hellbringer are all great choices.
>>
>>164148510

>>164151156
As I understand Flea is way too fast of mech for MWO as it's speed literally breaks the damagedealing system the game has.
>>
>>164152251
Doesn't break it, it just highlights PGI's shoddy net code and the frequency at which they send packets between the server and client.

Mechs moving above 180kph or so start having their hitboxes (these are invisible) disjoint from the 3D model (this is the thing you see on your screen). So on mechs moving faster than their net code can send information packages to the server and back to update the mechs location to all players in the match server. This is where you start having packet loss, or warping, where the 3D model will be shown at point B, whereas the hitboxes are actually already at point A.

It means mechs going too fast gain a literal lag shield. With lasers, it's possible to ping and scrape at them by feeling the area around the target that's moving above the "speed barrier," but with any projectile weapons it becomes ludicrously difficult to land a hit, let alone have it land where you're supposedly targeting it.

So I'm saving up for a mech to buy while the sales are still up, but at the rate I'm going I'm only going to be able to afford one before the sales are over in a little over two days.

Ice Ferret only works against shitters who run slower mediums.

It gets easily demolished by shadowhawks and griffins, even if you run it 4x c-SPL + 2x SRM4.

Novas are the big kahuna for clans in scouting now. 12x c-SPL wrecks the everliving daylights out of anything it gets the jump on, and you have a fair chance of at least coring out one mech before you die to focused SRM bombing.

So, are you that nigger who whined about a cicada spotting you on Polar Highlands?

'Cuz that very same locust faggot said he was hacking and had ESP or some shit.

Which he didn't, the team in that match kept marking the locust with "TARGET SPOTTED" to see where that locust was running.

>>164204078
Wow "Target Spotted" confirmed to be OP

Why are there no other Kongers using it?
>>
>>164203874
this.

when your ecm + radar dep sniper mech is ignored by the enemy and suddenly 1 faggot knows where you are at all times from 600+ m away after you poke/peek once to shoot them and then they spend the rest of the match hitting you until you die where ever you go ignoring the rest of your team as soon as a pixel of you is exposed anywhere.

i swear, how can pubbies be so bad they feel justified in cheating like a bunch of cunts?
