    Following on the two topics about the best mech and the under-dog.. I'm curious, how much damage do your light mech cause in a match?

    I expect the Jenners to top this. Both my Spiders (5D and 5V) have been doing 300+ recently. 5D being definitely the king, coming in with 500+ in some rounds.... and often (and in some rounds I get killed pretty fast with under 100 damage done, that's what I get for poking my head out)

    For me, a Jenner averages 500, good matches reaching 800-900 consistently.

    Spiders, 300-500 is about the top end for me.

    Commandos go anywhere from 200-600 depending on how fast I lose an arm! :D

    I'd like to see that, it's been a long time since I've dealt more than 800dmg with a jenner.
    The good games (= games I need to do all the work by myself because my teammates failed) I usually deal 500-600. Maybe my aim is just better, who knows. ;)

    Anyway, according to my profile stats, for the variants I have more than 100 launches since the stats are available:
    JR7-F: 260 dmg per game (out of 469 games)
    JR7-D: 260 dmg per game (out of 141 games)
    SDR-5D: 220 dmg per game (out of 404 games)

    My JR7-F averages 397 damage after 177 matches played. I don't have any old screenshots (delete them about once a week) but I'll get some up this week.

    However, my JR7-K only averaged 243 and my JR7-D was only 197! Strange, I feel as though I preform far better in a -D than a -K, but, them's the stats.

    Commando 2D averages 199, Commando 3A averages 296. I guess my "minds eye averages" thinking back are more of the successful rounds. :rofl:

    Still, there are obviously plenty of matches where a light just gets sniped off the face of the planet and some where you can go un-focused and tear it up. There are averages and there is the situational/successful capability of the mech.

    Just ran 3 rounds in my JR7-F:
    First round; (just shy of 700)

    Second round I did 97 damage before getting alpha'd by a PPC/Gauss Victor to the cockpit.

    Third Round; (lower damage, high finisher) Two solo on Assault's legs, the rest were mobility chases and finishes.

    5500 XP in three rounds.

    The only light mech I really play is the JR7-D, which I average at around 296 dmg/round (only 98 matches) I'm planning to have some fun in spiders soon tho.

    The Spiders I use only avg 201 and 245 damage, but, they are averaging 2.75 kills and 1.98 kills per match after 90 and 54 rounds... Nooot baaaad. Lil sneakers are knocking people out for only being 1/4 their weight!

    Spider 5D avg 208

    Spider 5k an appalling 128. (i had fun with this one though, mounted an AC2 in him. And this was before the MGs were bumped up)

    296 in a commando is pretty cool, I know with the SRMs they have some potential, but I just see them doing that much damage, guess i'm wrong.

    I know you know this already, but for anyone who looks at this thread in the future, we still have the HSR issue with these stats. KDR is not a good measurement currently. Yes, it reflects the game as it is now but not the mechs real survival ability.

    For example, 48 kills, 28 deaths on my 5D. It's 90% heavier mechs.

    Totally agree, Lan. The Spiders are especially skewed. Commandos seem to actually have the most accurate hit registry in my game experience, even being so small. Ravens and Jenners both are about 75% accurate or better in my experience. I rarely have a problem taking out a Commando, Jenners are quite easy (nice big hit-boxes) and Ravens are only slightly harder. The Spiders are the biggest issue right now.

    However, this is still an issue to considers when thinking of a mech's stats. They are not always realistic once one considers the inaccurate damage they receive.

    -If you get lucky or what, you get 3 to 6 kills in a game (well, by stealing a kill because you can hardly kill heavy and assaults by yourself, it will take you 1 or 2 minutes.)

    I think good light pilot can score 2 or 3 kills in a game, average must be 2 kills.
    The score should run from 250-500 for good pilots, and 250 is the average

    some lights score 3-4 kills in a game and their score is between 200 and 300
    they do this by finding a good target who is in danger. I use SDR-5D (Mythweaver's build, 2xMLas,1xLLas,ECM,2JJ) because of the ECM, I always kill oponents at the back. But first, you should look for the part of the torso without remaining armors left, or else, you'll be waiting for another two rounds of lasers
    Best light? I think Jenner?

    JR7-D: 285 matches, 236 average damage, 1.33 W/L, 1.92 K/D
    JR7-F: 41 matches, 243 average damage, 1.16 W/L, 1.81 K/D
    JR7-K: 25 matches, 231 average damage, 1.08 W/L, 1.50 K/D

    SDR-5D: 107 matches, 199 average damage, 1.23 W/L, 2.18 K/D
    SDR-5K: 116 matches, 104 average damage, 1.58 W/L, 0.69 K/D
    SDR-5V: 103 matches, 141 average damage, 1.22 W/L, 1.02 K/D

    24 total matches in Raven and zero matches in Commando, so no stats for either one of those.

    The Spider SDR-5K has highest Win/Loss ratio while also having lowest Kill/Death ratio. And not just of the listed 'Mechs either -- that's my highest W/L in any 'Mech and my lowest K/D in any 'Mech. Weird...

    Because I figured out how to view my stats on the official forums, I'll throw out my data:

    Jenner JR7-D - 44 matches - 7,028 damage (160 average)
    Jenner JR7-F - 36 matches - 7,652 damage (212 average)
    Jenner JR7-K - 25 matches - 5,286 damage (211 average)

    Raven RVN-3L - 138 matches - 13,128 damage (95 average)

    My Raven does a lot more spotting, and was the mech I did most of my learning (and failing) on. Not to make excuses about how much I suck, because I do suck :)

    Yeah, it really doesn't matter to me now and it still won't matter after things go live. Unless there's a reward I REALLY want for a certain W/L or K/D ratio achievement...

    Out of curiosity I tracked my Jenner games of the last 3 days - 28 games total, 14 assaults and 14 conquests, all pugs, some solo and some with 1-3 friends, all on a 6xSPL JR7-F.
    I plan to continue to get a bigger sample, but I'm afraid I'll have to restart from scratch if they fix the HSR tomorrow (prepatch results could be interesting though).

    Dmg: 361 avg (676 max, 97 min)
    Kills: 1.9 avg (5 max, 0 min)
    Assists: 2.9 avg (7 max, 0 min)
    Score: 53 avg (109 max, 13 min)
    Death: 57%
    K/D: 3.4
    W/L: 0.87 :(

    It's way higher (139%!) than my overall stats! My piloting must have improved :cool:

    I had a very bad serie (7 losses in a row!) that weight heavily on the W/L ratio, I think it would be higher on a larger sample. It could have affect other stats too (especially kills) but I performed well on this games even if we lost, so it should be ok.

    I usually avg 250-350 in spiders/jenners/ravens. I prefer to scout first, then engage once the battle gets going (I usually go after stragglers and the heavily wounded)

    The matches that I usually do 500+ damage usually end up being a loss since some heavies/asaults die as soon as they power up. :p
