I'm just getting back into the game. KONG (GONK?) has their home planet, correct? I haven't messed with the community warfare at all.

Anyone want to give me a basic rundown and if we're active in it?

There's some info for community warfare in the 2nd part of the google doc, but I suppose it's a bit out of date.

Catapults were super prone to headshots because the whole cockpit area was the head, and that happened to be center of mass from the front.

Being gold is a state of mind.

>>164988509

There are different races of old men. The pony tailed one is the first form, and manifests in your mid 20s to early 30s. This then turns into the shit rat tail as your hair gets worse, neckbeard once you reach full old man status, then to mark the passing into gold hood, your hair will start to fall out, and you'll find yourself the owner of certain old man things, like private BDSM dungeons, teamspeak channels for your tacticool ERP sessions, and 200 dollar limited edition atlas sculpts.

It actually ranks every group and hands out planets according to the most loyalty points gained by every group. Gonk had the most points so got the highest planet on the list.

I am in love with the Shadowcat. There's so much room to put stuff, with the limited hardpoints you gotta be creative.
2xERLL is lame, same with LPL
2XERPPC is ok, 1x is better
Left side gets: LB-X-AC10, same in ac5 flavor, U/AC5, 2xAC2, ERPPC, maybe 3xMG
Right side gets: 2xSPL+SRM4, maybe 2xERSL with a fat ac10 based left side
OR you stick the missile/energy arms on with the missile torso and go 2xERML 3xSRM6 which has badass sheet firepower but I think SRM6 is garbage compared to the others so run that one with your Mlas on M1 and 3xSRM4/2 chainfire on M2.

Should I go ahead and buy the hellbringer when I have enough, or is there something else that is definitely better(and possibly cheaper) for consistently getting lots of c-bills every game that I would be better off getting? Or alternatively, is there something that is extremely fun that I could buy/build that would make the c-bill grind a bit more bearable? Thanks in advance for any help.

>>165023964
I don't think you understand the playstyle options that going 100kph in reverse opens up. It plays a bit like a shadowcat with more close-range firepower and less damage spread, or a fast and maneuverable medium support mech.
You can pop in and out of cover by running in a circle, never slowing down to reverse. You can pick an assault mech and orbit it as a kill-stealing satellite.
If you're willing to give up the deadside from a STD engine, you can throw in some machine guns as well.

>>165039032
Mad Dog is good for a serious build, same for Stormcrow. If you only care about memes, Archer can fit nine without Artemis for a 3x3 hell punch and not quite enough speed/ammo/sinks to justify the monstrosity

Also forgot to mention Linebacker but that one can't boat 6 with Artemis.

Nothing quite like boating weapons though, even machine guns on my Shadow Cat puts a smile on my face

Have I got the mech for you! A maximum 26 damage per second, at nearly 10 DPS sustainable. you can brawl a Kodiak into submission.
Don't actually chainfire though, set them into groups of 3 and fire them in a 1, 2, 3 punch. That will give you a slight pause between each shot to spread enemy return fire while still firing fast enough to blind your opponent.
It's the best brawler that I've got.

This, 5x AC2 is a build I regularly run on the jm5 DD after the UAC nerfs

Hunchback IIC

3x UAC5 or 2x UAC10

>>165040468
Either 2x UAC10 or 4x UAC2.

You lose out on ammunition tonnage with 3x UAC5.

>>165040851
4x UAC2 can also do retarded shit with macros like chainfire with 1ms delay until all your guns jam at once

Also burns ammo really quickly

I happen to have a MDD already, so all I'd have to do is buy the side torsos and whatever other equipment I'm missing for such a build. Definitely considering doing this.

Yeah I was looking at that one too. A definite consideration down the road.

Also, on the topic of missiles, how do streaks stack up to regular srms? I've only tried them a couple times personally and I'm not sure how useful they are due to mandatory lock before fire. Are the niche enough to be useful in some situations, or are they completely worthless?

Is MWLL worth playing as an ausfag?
Mwo is pretty good with ping but i dont know compared to LL

>>165044306
>how do streaks stack up to regular srms
Niche, not useful for brawling due to cooldown and since you can't torso twist effectively while keeping lock
They're nice with 6 MLs though, if you don't want to be a 100% streak boat

>tfw you want to sleep but afraid the thread will die because no one is bumping it

How much room for customization is there on that brawling build? 3SRM6 + 2SPL is okay, about as strong as a 2N, but is there just not enough room for something better on those laser hardpoints?

>>165053131
Ice Ferret is a better brawler

>>165053131
Shadowcat with 2x c-LPL and 6x c-MG does alright. If you get behind a heavy or an assault you'll rip out their side torso in 2 seconds.

Guys is the Centurion a good mech?

Gods, why is the Dire Wolf so awful. Where's the fucking skill tree revamp that's supposed to give us better quirks?

No, buy a Griffin if you want a Cent

>>165058778
Please explain

I have a Centurion that cannot be sold

>>165058904
The Griffin does SRMs better
If you want to kit out the NCIX mech you should run 3 ASRM6 2 MLs, but it's not quite as good as it used to be.

>>165058904
the NCIX centurion (if that's the one you have) runs 3x SRM6+Artemis and 2x ML with a standard engine well.

The other variants do pretty much the same thing, apart from the CN9-AL.

If you want to master the chassis, get the CN9-AH (build it with 3x SRM6+artemis and 3x machinegun for maximum brawl), and the CN9-AL variant (build this one with 3x large pulse laser, endo+ferro+double, XL275 engine and 3x extra DHS).

Not to mentions srm boats without artemis are a complete joke, at that point might as well replace the SRM4 for Streak2 if all you care about is the memes, you are going to have half the ammo consumption and 4.5 more tons to work with.

Cents are actually alright, but require a lot of awareness and effort to use correctly once you're out of the babby tiers since brawling in a medium that doesn't jump is rough.

For most builds, whether srmbombs or 3 LL, they are outdone by other mechs. The only thing they do better than other mediums is run an ac20 godhand. Right corner peeking and perfect accuracy with your ac20 are both required skills.

That's over 1600 damage. Stop being retarded.

Also, you fail at basic math, 800/36 = 22.222

If you complained about archers being dumb and slow and underquirked with shitty visibility and shitty hitboxes then at least you'd have a point but the ammo count is the one thing that's fine.

He's complaining that SRM4s without artemis are worthless. He obviously struggles to ever hit 500 damage with a brawler of any kind.

The bad hitboxes can be mitigated somewhat by firing fast enough to throw off the opponent's aim. The lack of quirks is also made less painful by the sheer number of heatsinks and SRMs fit into it. I've found the bad hitboxes to be more of a problem when I'm running a STD engine. If I'm running an XL and trying to spread damage evenly rather than all away from the CT, then it usually spreads pretty well.

Is MWO p2w?

>>165088023
I'm just saying the archer chassis has enough things going against it, and could really use some stronger quirks. It doesn't even get a generic missile quirk of ANY kind and has a small lrm quirk as if anyone would run lrms on it. It's too bad because I like how it looks.

If you put srms in archer side t's you're an idiot. Firing them opens your missile doors which denies you the armour there. Which is suicide at short range because any potato can hit that big a flat black target that close. Archer is not for SRM bombing.

Tempest can take 6 med las. But that's about as much as it can boat.
You don't want to fill the sides with boated lurms either because once again you can't really make it workand firing lurma for a long time just leaves your doors open for suicide kill feeding

>>165089321

It's all per match. You start with 43000 dollars, and helping or shooting will increase the minimum you start with when you respawn.

The smaller the vehicle you're in the more experience you'll get, so lurking around the 53000~ dollar area is best for an assault rush. You can also speed things up by asking your team for cash.

The only vehicles that become irrelevant are harassers and Hephaestus, as Light mechs dominate in capturing, support and scouting.

At the 53000-59000 area you'll get plenty of fire power in a light-medium mech (Gauss rifles, LRM 10+).

Battle Armor can also solo heavies and assaults if coordinated.

>>165115635
The important thing is to (max range)-(full DMG range) and then 1/2 that. Add that to your quirked and modules full DMG range to get your 1/2 DMG effective range which should be like 1200 and something. Beyond that you're doing SFA DMG and the heat is a waste really.

For instance I know the battle master 2c with 5 llas set up. Has 540m full DMG and 1/2 DMG out at 810 m so shooting at anything further away than that is a total waste of heat and CD.

Because I grew up without the complex social nurturing that comes from a non-dysfunctional family and as a result of years of neglect and isolation, have grown into a fundamentally broken human being to whom the average human being might as well be from another dimension due to the vast emotional gap, and thus my only choice is to attempt to emulate my approximation of an average human being, which is emotionally extremely exhausting, rendering me extremely reluctant to socialize which despite success still leaves me internally feeling very hollow, lonely and bitter to the point of suicidal thoughts.


Next question.

It's okay horko, it'll take awhile but eventually you'll find your special someone. If someone like fucking greg can find love, so can you

Panther got dank armor quirks and is alright now thanks to it

A few months ago I thought it would be fun to create a company briefing like the ancient Black Widow Company or Fox's Teeth books. I've often wished that FASA had kept working in that format for other units; not just famous Mercs, but covering some of the big house Regiments as well.

Thus, the Damned Hooligans - a company of the 10th Skye Rangers.

I changed my mind, don't keep us posted anymore

so for unlocking elite efficiencies do i have to keep the chassis?

i have two sets of basic done and i want to sell one of them off, can I or will that prevent unlocking elite?

>>165125649
I enjoyed this

Are the Catapult and Rifleman any good?

>>165125649
Pretty cool, thanks.

>>165128594
Yes and Kind of.

>>165127335
You need to have three elited mechs in a weight class before you unlock mastery.

You can only spend xp on mechs that you own.

Otherwise there are no limits.

>>165129019
I think anon is asking if he can sell a mech that has maxed out basics, and still have it count towards the three.

What vindicator whould you guys recommened?
I know its a shitmech but shitmechs are my game

>>165128896
Care to elaborate on the Rifleman?

Also can the Urbie put in anything resembling work or no? I kinda want to pick one up for kicks.

>>165129070
Why wouldn't it?

>>165129165
Rifleman is a really solid 60 tonner.

It can build some viable laser vomit, dakka or a mix of both. Weapons mounted on the same level as the cockpit means you won't be hitting the ground when you hill hump. Only downside is that torso twisting the rifleman will mean you're sacrificing your arms.

>>165129070
Yes.

>>165129105
None, buy a blackjack-3 for your ppc needs.

Don't say we didn't warn you.

>>165129165
Rifleman is actually just very average. Ballistics on a 60tonner is generally a bad idea but it has pretty good quirks.

Sure, 2lpl urbie is reasonably strong.

Everytime I play Terra therma, I swear the team gets dumber and dumber

>Oh no thats okay, we have a single Warhammer flanking
Rly keeps you posted

I bought the Vindicator 1X
Hopefully the memegun buff can improve it, Ill keep you posted

>>165128594
Rifleman is great because all dem high mounts. K2 cat for the same reasons.
