Trying to get back into the Awesome chassis... Haven't played more that 10 rounds since eliting the variants and I'm trying again. The whole idea is to NOT have to use any of the close range weapons, however, those situations inevitably happen. It is an Awesome, so she can't afford to brawl. Stick with teammates and snipe with this build, then, as the fight pushes close, let others engage first and hammer down with the tight group of 18 SRMs and lasers. It's been quite effective for me the last couple days - thought I'd share. Group 1: 2xPPCs Group 2: LLas (usually hit concurrently with PPCs) Group 3: SRMs Group 4: LL, ML
I really want to 3 star it because it's so bloody hot, then I realized quickly in reality it's not that hot as you will pretty much never fire the PPCs and the SRMs together. 4-5 as it seems a little range confused, but I like the flexibility.
@Cpt Chattahah, I like the build and I agree that at first it looked like it ran a little hot. So I tinkered around with it and it looks like with the 3 SRM's this is a cool as it's going to run. And that's not a bad thing, because you won't be firing all these at the same ranges. As long as the pilot understands that I think it will do just fine 4 stars!
Exactly the intent, boys! Sniping (including the LLas) gives you a heat efficiency of 51% after only unlocking basic skills. Close range (Mlas, LLas and 3xSRM6A) gives you heat efficiency of 56% after only unlocking basic skills. Very efficient. Close range you're still putting out over 12DPS for 26 seconds with a 50 point alpha.
