[MEDIA] The two best things about this build are how a Locust looks with two PPCs on it, and hiding in the corpses of dead mechs with Stealth Armor...
I also use the stealth armor 4xML version, it's good fun. Highly recommended.
[MEDIA] ***Don't own any Hellfires yet, so all theory.*** Should be relatively mobile, the lasers are to deal 40 damage when you aren't close...
@anamiac Yep. CarloArmato uploaded a video of his performance in the Champion build. Literally the only reason I even put an XL engine back into one...
I'm gonna throw something more dangerous out there; (Credit to Carlo Armato for inspiration, that Champion vid was sick.) [MEDIA] It's super fun!...
Not gonna lie, I bought a Summoner purely because it's Spheroid designation is Thor, and my dog's name is Thor. Had no expectations of it, since I...
@Zekester81 not a bad idea to have the backup. Heat has become more of an issue with this build since PGI reworked the heat scale so dropping a RAC2...
[MEDIA] With a free mech from the loot bag event, I thought I'd grab a Nightstar and try an IS version of my beloved MCII-1 TeslaCannon. Heat can...
[MEDIA] Standard laservomit build, you use either the ERMLs or the ERSLs in conjunction with the LPLs depending on how close you are to the enemy....
[MEDIA] The ERLLs are actually there as ballast. I mean, if you want to stay back and use them you can, feel free. They're useful if you're stuck on...
@Dagonus pretty much exactly like that. Why couldn't I find the loyalty variant on MechDB when I checked before posting this?
Stock equipment, stock engine. Get rid of the JJs and some armor on the left arm, run an... XL light with a deadside, what could go wrong?
@Excalibaard challenge (to surpass 300 damage) accepted.
@Lorgot "better" is subjective, any increase in laser duration is more damage potentially spread where you don't want it, especially on fast mediums...
[MEDIA] Literal laser shotgun. Hide close until the brawl, when enemies are within 150-200m, charge them and just alpha, keep firing. There's a...
It's the Boogieman in a closet. Speed tweak and mobility skills so you can burst out in a knife fight and dish out nasty, rapid DPS and ECM to keep...
It's still got it! Heat management for days even on Terra Therma~ [IMG] [IMG] *Edit* At the end of that match I had 16 Gauss rounds left and...
Have a few operations skills on my second Nova, so on average an alphastrike gets me up to 50-51% heat. But I can't wait to grab heat gen and laser...
[MEDIA] When you're within 150m, poptart and blast shit! Hot hot like a Nova should be, but this many clan lasers without ghost heat is mint....
@Archwright RAC2s are better under most circumstances, I agree~ In this case... Having double the speed and more armor may actually tip the scales in...
Blueprinting for ALPHA INC.
@Excalibaard Hard to make a bigger engine fit, because I wouldn't recommend SHS with RACs.. 3xRAC2 [MEDIA] 2xRAC5 (Probably more viable) [MEDIA] I...
[MEDIA] Best part of this build is having range. You can snipe and poke, deal damage early. When you're in a brawl, you have enough DHS to be pretty...
Since ammo counts got buffed a while back, it's time to revisit this! [MEDIA] Macro that shit. You don't drop in this mech to get kills or KMDDs,...
As of current, best match in this. It's still really hot. [IMG]
@Remover of Obstacles I actually did switch to the 4xERMLs for a while, I'm still going back and forth to get a feel for what I like better, though....
DO NOT USE THIS. THIS IS NOT PLAYABLE. [MEDIA] You have been warned. You can chainfire 3, firing 2 together puts you at over 55% heat. It's slow,...
@Shock yes! Almost! All I'm missing are some heat gen nodes right now and an alpha on a neutral map (Solaris City) results in 101% heat!
[MEDIA] Pewpewpewpew BLEEEEEEEARGH standard clan laservomit achieved.
@Archwright made me do it. [MEDIA] Don't forget you have a LAMS and melt yourself. Because I forgot. And I melted. Also stagger fire, since HMLs...
