Popular Weapons

After all your Game Experience with the Weaponsystem in MWO, which Weapon(s) is(are) your most favorite one(s)? The reason can be anything - the looks+feel, the damage/dps, the range, the cool efficiency, the extra heat, the name, the sounds, the ammount of ammo, etc

Lets see, which Weapons are more favored among us.

max. 3 Votes pls

 

ML, LL, and PPC. Hard to find any drawbacks to any of them, do their job well, and are reliable. ML is probably the overall best weapon in the game.

 

Heh

Heheh

I voted Machine Gun

But seriously, since I've been playing light a lot, I've learned to maximize it's potential. Mostly for harassment or damage tagging, but it also makes enemy pilots often feel like the *must* try and destroy me, despite the miniscule damage I do weaving in and out of them.

However, once an enemy mech has weakened armor or is showing their components, I can safely move in for the kill, or at least component destruction.

MPLas and SRM6 should be self-explanatory.

 

My fav weps:

PPC
LL
LPL
LBX10
LRM5
and
SPL

 

I've gotta go LL and AC/5. My favorite consistent weapons. While I love an SRM6+A, it is not practical at most ranges. If I throw an AC/5 or a LL on any build, I have a good long range platform with great short range crossover.

 

I have to echo Cpt Chattaha, since 2xLL or 3xAC5 are my favourite weapon systems. AC5's get great range, excellent heat, and good speed, and with three of them, you can fire them perfectly in chain fire for a constant barrage of damage and shake.

 

I would HATE for the PGI scouts to get their hands on this poll... this is like a list of what-to-nerf for them.

 

AHHAHAHAHA!

 

That would be the Lasers!

 

Since when has PGI used logic for their decisions lately?

 

enileph...that is some funny shit!

Anyway, I voted Med.Lasers due to their utility, Streaks 'cause you fire and forget 'em (and you still hit yer target no matter how drunk you are), and the AC/20 'cause it's a BFG.

Myth.

 

1/ AC/20 : That noise!
2/ UAC5 : As an owner of Ilya, I have to vote for this weapon. The first weapon I use that make me feel so powerful in game
3/ ER-PPC : I think it is an underused weapon currently, due to its heat nerf, but it remains a very long range weapon with great capacity at short range too. I love using it as a complement to autocannon, especially AC/20.

 

Cant believe that PPCs are so unpopular nowadays. I mean ERPPCs are crappy now after the extreme Heatnerf, but no Snipers anymore???

 

Definitely AC/2 in the first position. Dakka dakka!
AC/20 goes second, because of the big boom.
Small pulse laser in third, only because it provides such an exciting gameplay on the jenner.

Not in my vote, but I want to mention medium laser (the ultimate backup weapon) and AC/5 (for the low heat and all the possibilities it gives in building).

 

I still use my Heavy Metal. In fact after going through tons of different builds I went back to the Gauss + PPC build, I just went with two regular PPC's instead of ERs. Still works fine, plus its nice to fill a niche almost nobody does anymore. I'm still averaging a 2.0 KDR with it, so I'd say it works fine.

I still like the gauss, I voted for it, I just think they over nerfed it just a a tad much. I think they either need to remove the charge up and make the recharge longer, or keep the charge up and lower the recharge and extend the length you can hold the charge.

 

wow i would say, the poll results are saying strong words! MLas is the King of all Gunz! Followed by his big Bro LLas and then comes th AC20 and UAC sharing the third place. Nice to see that you guyz completely agree with me.
