Nice. I'd call it player's choice between buffing armor or skipping leg day and going up to LFE280
I think I would go the LFE route and swap out 1 Light Gauss for another ERPPC. You get most of the speed you lost back and probably better on heat...
While I think the rest of your analysis is quite good, I don't believe TAG makes any difference in spread for LRMs.
PPCs and Light Gauss also have significant differences in velocity unless the chassis has PPC velocity quirks. That will make landing all your shots...
Stealth armor isn't a very good mix with Streaks as you can't get a lock with Stealth on unless you're in the enemy's lap. Also, that's probably way...
Done
I believe Jagers were one of the mechs "helped" by moving armor from the arms to the torso so it's more likely your arms are going to fall off before...
Really nice alpha. MRM ammo is low so that's what you stop shooting when you get hot. With the buffs to all weapons mounted, this should be a good...
This build could make a nice comeback after the patch today since 4LL will no longer apply ghost heat
Be careful with this one. My understanding is that IS AC20s will still get ghost heat at 2.
Funny, as I looked over this build, my mind actually went in the other direction. 40% cooling with 18 DHS and the proper skilling is quite viable....
I have never seen anything like this with seemingly competing factions within the same company getting dragged out into public.
Hmmmmm
That's going to be super duper hot
My understanding is that was IGP forcing that on PGI. I don't know how PGI felt about it
With the low armor of the Boar's Head variant, this seems like it is very undergunned for a 100 ton mech.
They've been holding firm on "it's better this way".
Very underwhelming plan for 1st Quarter. That is literally the least they could do in 3 months.
Welcome back! Enjoy your trip back up to the top ranks. :D
It's actually simpler than that. When you click Save & Share Loadout, just copy the plain link and paste it right into your comment. The board plugin...
It doesn't much matter but you'll never die from engine damage without losing a torso completely.
The ERML in the arm with the LLs is a good idea. Sucks that it makes the cooldowns sync up worse though. There's no need to crit pad for the engine....
The Scorch is more survivable because it doesn't have the easily targeted missile pods. But the arms hang quite low so there's a bit of a tradeoff....
Drop that LFE to 300 and change to Light FF and you can get another DHS.
With skills, that's more than enough MRM ammo. I'd be wary of shaving leg armor that much considering all the ammo in them
Magic Pain Glove runs this build very successfully. For most people, results will vary. I know his build is slower and I think carries more ammo.
Given the low time to jam and the heat, I think there are many situations where a single RAC2 is better than a RAC5 straight up. If PGI is going to...
I would recommend against Laser AMS on a RAC build. This thing is going to be hot as it is. I also don't recommend chain-firing except in very...
