Yes. PPCs have slow fire rates, so rapid DPS is almost a necessity for close work.
I took all that into consideration, but there's another, much bigger reason; Ever since IGP forced PG to fuck up the mechanics in order to "appeal...
To be honest, I hate using LLas as sniper weapons; having to hold that beam on target ruins your ability to roll damage and evade. So here is my...
You are entirely correct on all counts, except for your choice of main weapon; that's a matter of opinion. The way I see it, streaks are the main...
I've been doodling with this build for a while, and I am dismayed at how quickly you can burn through even 300 SSRM ammo; I can go through up to 5...
Even when you take the jamming rate into account, you can easily burn through 210 rounds of UAC ammo in the course of a match. With LLas mounted on...
:) [MEDIA]
Because the Stalker is so damn slow, anything that gets around to your back is going to kill you anyway if you don't have a buddy to protect you. So...
The first build is a dirt-cheap build designed to take the base loadout and make it more useful. The second build is the first build fully pimped...
The panther was always one of my favorites. PPC+ASRM has consistently been one of the most deadly combos in all the Battletech games, both TT and...
Why aren't there more long range builds in the KTO-18 category? [MEDIA]
Lots of damage, very quickly. Given the jam rate of UACs, it's easy to burn through 150 rounds of ammo at double pace before you are at serious risk...
Because any build with two or more ballistic hardpoints needs at least one dakka build. [MEDIA] "Sidearm" alt; [MEDIA]
Have fun. [MEDIA]
I put one of the MLas in the arm as an anti-light mech weapon. Feel free to switch it around if that's easier for you. [MEDIA]
This is a remake of my pre-release Proteus build. [MEDIA]
It has a smaller alpha than some of the mini-jenners here, but given the fact that high-speed battles are the Locust's bread and butter, pulse lasers...
The highest DPS build I could manage while maintaining maximum speed and armor. [MEDIA]
It's exactly what it sounds like-stick with the fat mechs and watch for flankers and missiles. [MEDIA]
A dirt cheap mech purely for leveling up and having at least a little bit of fun while doing it. [MEDIA]
An attempt to give the locust a more focused, heavier punch than is usually possible. [MEDIA]
Seriously, I wish people would stop saying this kind of thing; there are a million combos that can be done with any mech at any time, so of course...
A nice 1-2 combo. Also quite cheap, as custom mechs go. [MEDIA]
I haven't seen any good long range builds for the Shadowhawk, so here's my attempt to correct that. There are multiple reasons why I picked the...
An attempt to fill the long-range sniper niche [MEDIA]
2x PPCs for sniping and long alpha work, 4x MLas for sustained DPS....
I want the MAL-1R Mauler. It's a fantastic all-round 90-ton machine with ballistic, energy, and missile hardpoints, and since the canon says it was...
More of a hit-and-run mech than a brawler, but it's quite good at both. [MEDIA] Alt A, sacrificing range for even more damage and speed; [MEDIA]
ERPPC for sniping/anti-ECM work, AC/5s for rapid shake, and medium lasers for heavy pinpoint damage....
