I hope this isn't considered a duplicate of the 750+ thread, as I believe surpassing 1000 damage in this mech is based completely on luck. Anyone else ever find themselves alone with an LRM only catapult and LRM+ 1LL Stalker to end the game? If a similar situation has occurred to you, then please share!
I am running Solahma's ERPPC build. Unfortunately I am a bit greedy with my ECM while pugging and therefore use it to accentuate my fantastic armor values. The burst damage allows you to fire and retreat quickly. https://www.mechspecs.com/threads/mlx-p-lightning-mist-1x-cerppc-cecm.7651/
I overheated quite a few times trying to get that Stalker and Catapult dead before the game timed out, in the back of my mind all I could think about was losing the match because I melted my CT fighting two weaponless mechs.
I'm using that build on my prime. I've had some good games with it but nowhere near 500 dmg let alone 1000!
1024 on a luck game. Only one kill (!!! ) and ran out of time/heat wearing down the enemy Dire Whale. Game ended in a tie. Usually sub 500 damage with the build here. Same ErPPC ECM build, patience, luck, etc. Mods: Imp Arty (which I fricken missed... damn Bog map) Maxed both ErPPC weapon mods Advanced zoom Only maxed novice so far.
I bought the three mechs and was in the process of levelling them. At first stage I was most satisfied by ERPPC+ECM build but after a while I tried an idea I though wild at first, embrace risk and go for it wit 4xSPL, my scores have go to new heights, as far as this:
Was this from today? Because the new fancy quirks today just nerfed the ERPPC build by 2.5% heat and nerfed the SPLas build by 5% heat... those idiots...
No, it is from monday night. Also did they really nerf anything? Lynx almost had no quirks before. Edit, yes they did. ............................................________ ....................................,.-'"...................``~., .............................,.-"..................................."-., .........................,/...............................................":, .....................,?......................................................, .................../...........................................................,} ................./......................................................,:`^`..} .............../...................................................,:"........./ ..............?.....__.........................................:`.........../ ............./__.(....."~-,_..............................,:`........../ .........../(_...."~,_........"~,_....................,:`........_/ ..........{.._$;_......"=,_......."-,_.......,.-~-,},.~";/....} ...........((.....*~_......."=-._......";,,./`..../"............../ ...,,,___.`~,......"~.,....................`.....}............../ ............(....`=-,,.......`........................(......;_,,-" ............/.`~,......`-...................................../ .............`~.*-,.....................................|,./.....,__ ,,_..........}.>-._...................................|..............`=~-, .....`=~-,__......`,................................. ...................`=~-,,.,............................... ................................`:,,...........................`..............__ .....................................`=-,...................,%`>--==`` ........................................_..........._,-%.......` ...................................,
Was leveling the MLX, was fairly easy I have to say. 1 ERPPC build, just skimming the outsides and shooting everything ins sight
8xMG, 3xHSL. No skill trees (if that makes any differences). I have been running this mech as my main for the last month or two. In good games, damage typically ranges about 500-700.
Happy to finally add my name in here. Running the MLX-ED but swapped to G arms for 8xMG and 4xERSL. This match in particular I swept around behind the enemy team with my lance and we picked them off 1 and 2 at a time since they strung out. One of the most satisfying 7k games I've ever had. Seriously loving this mech.
