I had set-up a secondary account last week, so I spent the weekend leveling up Jenner IIC's. I had actually started off with the laser variant...
So, the popular meta right now is still Laser Vomit, which means that enemies can put out huge spikes of damage in a very short time. A very popular...
I think the Mauler will always be good. Pretty hard to argue with 5 AC5s in your face whether they're quirked or not. The Black Knight, though, yeah,...
Resistance 2 with its preorders was probably the pinnacle of value. For $80 you got the Black Knight and Mauler, which are probably the top of their...
So after a couple weeks of screwing around with Scouting Mode, I was wondering what everyone's settled on so far. Griffins and Stormcrows come to...
I've been using this build for Scouting missions since it packs a nice punch and moves quickly. Upped the engine to an XL320 to help keep up with the...
For the Resistance packs, there was the option to buy each chassis A-La-Carte for $35, which is in-line with the Standard Pack + Hero packages now.
There is also the consideration of what you are dropping in. Sure you can do 500+ DMG with an LRM Atlas, but it would be much better suited as a...
I've also noticed that the matchmaking times have vastly improved. I don't think I waited for more than a minute for any game this past week, even...
[MEDIA] So while 9x MPLas is tempting, I think that it would be outclassed by the 5SS in almost every way except for Alphas. As such, going with...
Babylon 5
One of the main ideas behind having randomized maps and fixed load outs is to encourage people not to have ridiculously hot builds that only perform...
[IMG] Running 3x LPLas, 3x MLas, STD 340.
I'm wondering what prompted the change in length, as I haven't seen any bitching on the forum or twitter about the event being too short. Are they...
This is a build I've been screwing around with recently. [MEDIA] As for trying to synchronize them, the closest I can get is throwing a Level 5...
I've only had time for a few drops. The first was pretty good with 3 kills and ~600 damage (no basics unlocked). The next few were just average-ish,...
[MEDIA] So this is my attempt to put together an energy brawler while minimizing the effects of the quirks the chassis recently received. To that...
It would be interesting to see what their sales have been like for each pack. I'd bet the Phoenix pack sold very strongly because it was new and...
Yeah, I'm trying really hard to see what the upside on this mech is. It has worse hardpoints than the most of the other Battlemasters , and yet it...
The BLR-1G(P) has been my most played mech for the past two months, so I'll just keep on with it. Maybe drop a few times in my trusty ol' SHD-2H(P) a...
Yeah, it looks like I may have to get into the Wolverines as they benefit the most from the quirks and the Shadow Hawks were left behind. I was...
I personally upgraded from a 55-tonner to a TDR-5SS with the tonnage increase, and going back to another 55-tonner shouldn't be a huge hit on my...
Wow, so the Battle of Tukkayid stats pretty much showed that 250 tons of IS vs 240 tons of Clan mechs was fairly balanced... so they reduced IS...
I noticed the defacto CPLT:C1 build is the good ol' 2xLRM15+3xMLas+Tag. If you're looking for something a little different, though, Falconium's...
This build has a bit of an odduck XL270 engine and it leaves almost half a ton of weight on the table. This half ton can easily be used to switch up...
XL Banshees are good risk/reward for an experienced player. For a novice losing an XL side torso just results in a death without any real...
The problem is that almost everyone is suggesting min/max type builds, which work great for experienced players, but could still be frustrating for...
Man, that Black Knight looks great, though the torso mounts are a little low.
The weapon loadout is okay, but 3 tons of UAC5 ammo is ridiculously low. These champion mechs are supposed to be playable right out of the box.
Yeah, the BLR-2C look kinda lackluster, unless they're using the lore to suggest that it has a specialized electronics suite. Since the CTF-3D is...
