Your most cringeworthy builds.

"Yo, dey call me duh Sparklah, cuz I light up ya night!"

 

River City be like, Dayum! Who turned all the lights on!

 

Seeing a lot of that recently with assaults Seven. Its almost like they don't bother trying to learn the game they play. Even had a guy in an assault wonder why anyone bothered with double heatsinks...

 

Well, The only person who can say "I don't care about DHS" are some Spider pilots (or similar things like locust maybe), Dual Gauss specialists (or triple?) , and multiple AC5 specialists.

Anything else should have DHS unless on a trial.

You should show them those test videos on heat. That might help them out. That, or direct him here.

 

ooooh oooooh new one....

Reverse engineered from a guy I saw tonight.

This last build can be devastating with an XL and some more DHS :

Very true. I've run that build quite a bit and it can REALLY tear some stuff up. I actually ran with an XL260 and 2x MLas. The AC/2s provide great range and consistent DPS, while the AC/20 will take out everything in it's path once they turn their weakened areas to face you. Truly a wrecking ball on the battlefield.

 

New one...not only did it make me cringe it nearly made me spit out my coffee.

Reverse engineered


FIXED BUILD ON PAGE 3

Would love to know how you plan on dropping in that with 8 HS

 

Ug yer right but that makes his build even worse...I am certain about the weapons and the engine. Compared his top speed with the engine and he lost a shoulder so I know it wasn't XL I know he started with at least 4k Ammo because when I first saw him he still had way over 2k left. I also know he didn't have jump jets because he didn't have the fuel bar.

I am by no means a light expert but just giving it a 30 second stab I think this would look at least reasonable.

I was in three drops last night where we came up against enemy AS7-D-DCs that weren't running ECM. Who would do such a thing?

 

Maybe for the challenge? I sometimes like to run less than ideal builds because its a challenge and can be a lot of fun.

 

This is true, I've ran a few horrible builds just for them lulz. My favorite and most frustrating was a quad flamer that would take forever to over-heat. Frustrating because you couldn't really fight at range, but hilarious when you caught a heavy or assault alone. I only managed that twice before scrapping the build, but when it happened, I couldn't stop laughing. Shut em down and melt them to the floor!

How about these two?
Edit: fixed ammo on the second. Not really any room to add more though.

 

Try This Then.

We all know we can make muppet builds so lets try to keep it to builds we have actually witnessed and reverse engineered and maybe a suggestion using their basic build on how to improve it.
