    Wonder how much Narc ammo it started with. Never thought about it but the missile range/cooldown/velocity increase quirks presumably help Narc range.

    No cAP and +A for cLRM5...But it is a hard mech to equip when it comes to summoner. due to available free tonnage... those fucking fixed JJ.
    Was running this for a time, quite fun really. Yes I have a energy specialist version and a SRM boat. This is the LRM hog.

    Gonna guess that COM was a "fuck you, I need exp" build. Just something to absorb exp with for mastery? Edit: 484 range on a IS NARC though, that's nice.

    That what I meant it just jumped out and I went .. woah!

    TBH if he was in a LRM lance the build makes perfect sense - NARC to bring the pain and a small laser to get assists as he drive by's.

    Another bad one just now:

    [​IMG]

    LRM40, TAG, and nothing else...including BAP. Not only that, he stood far away from his teammates and turrets, so having my 3L find him (along with 2 other lights) was a bad day for him. (My ECM is blocked in the shot, his teammate came near me in a HBK with a BAP ;) But the CPLT didn't have one)

    Can't beat this one I met this afternoon.

    Fear the machineguns.
    Admire the monstrous ammo count and the shining armor, while the game is basically over.
    And I just realised: he's the one who apologize in chat for some friendly fire, because he was zoomed when he sniped with his ERLLas...

    The worst with this one is we met him in group queue... even there is not safe from awful D-DC designs :shifty:

    I saw a guy yesterday in a AS7-S who figured 2 ERLL + 1x LRM20+A was a great idea. Unfourtunately I couldn't find him for a screen shot before he perished.

    Such a waste to use the AWS-8R for only two LRM15+A.. :thumbsdown:

    I feel almost like this thread should exclude atlas builds to keep it interesting. It reminds me of the time I asked for the worst song lyrics out there and had to exclude Train from the competition. Too easy, people!

    As a side note, nice going on the 13% survival there Blagg ;)

    Back on topic, I saw this atrocity while in spectator mode. I'm guessing at the engine here, but I'm pretty sure about the ammo (he had 58 shots left when I went into spec mode, and I didn't even die all that early). As a Cicada lover, I was offended both by his idiotic choice in weaponry and engine, not to mention he was ignoring a mech with a great PPC quirk...

    I assume he does not know about the bonus, but even so this thing is undergun.
    On the good side he is going for maxish engine with a XL350 or more.

    I know someone mentioned we should stop posting Atlas ones . . . but seriously, people who run builds like this need to get a clue!

    Was just wondering why you had a single ersl....

    LOL, nah the ERSL is for when I run out of ammo.

    The build I was talking about is the Atlas-DDC with an AC20 and LRM20, and NOTHING ELSE!

    I know I was just curious as if you're relying on a single ERSL in a game I think you have slight problems. ;)

    LOL Yeah no, it's strictly for ammo purposes. I'm one of those people who won't take a build without Energy weapons, for fear of running out and proving useless to the team. Hence the SLaser. ;)

    I'm from the other school of thought: I'd mount another 1/2ton of ammo instead :smug:
