So, I was watching Kerviz stream and he was using an A1 fitted out as described I kinda reverse engineered it and here it is! I have played a couple of matches in it and MAN IS IT FUN. Its not going to be competitive or whatever, but watching people scream blue murder has made my night! Credit goes to Kerviz - not sure if it's exact but its close enough!
Hi, This build is already post here : http://www.mechspecs.com/forum/index.php?topic=1295.0 Have a good day.
Yeah, so I built this: It's not spectacular and some would say that I'm not utilizing all the possible missile tubes efficiently. BUT, I can send a LRM30 alpha, or a constant barrage of LRM5s. And since I'm only using LRM5s I don't have to bother with Artemis, although it would help me with speeding up target locks. 11 tons of ammo might seem like much at first, but I've run dry once or twice... Modules, get Advanced sensor range, advanced target decay and a cool shot and you're golden. So, you ask, how does it play? Well, it's a speedy, maneuvreable indirect fire support mech that really shines at medium distance (500-180m) where the constant stream of missiles will cause an insane amount of screen shake and most of the missiles will hit CT. /BB
Well thats why you don't chainfire when you see one or two mechs with AMS. Or you fire really rapidly. AMS can only pick off so many missiles, and he is right there is a 30 missile alpha that fires pretty quickly.
rather have an xl300 with more DHS, though. I know the cooling efficiency is already high, but there are plenty of times you'll have to stop firing to cool off a little. More DHS=never stopping holding the mouse button down and I'd rather have that than be 4 kph faster. Most of us roll this troll build with Artemis just because we used to run splatcats or streakcats with art, but this version without artemis is actually better since you get more ammo. If you want to keep the XL315, I'd still drop the legs to 49 so you free up a ton for something (and add the 8 pts to your missing side/center torsos).
This build kicks ass with the lrm missile speed buff. I average 600 dmg with this build. Love it. Golden showers for everyone!
there was once a samurai general, he mentioned that the one that kill the most are not the samurai or spearman but the archers. garden hose fit that archers role perfectly. edit: im a johhny 5 coz of this build
