First for Onions.

Bearbots soon fellow mechwarriors.

Kodiak and Niggyr available for cbills when

2017

What builds would work on the 1 & 2?
I want to try uac spam on the 3, and 4 asrm 6 + lbx 20 on the hero, but I can't think of builds for the 1 and 2.

...

the only viable build for all kodiaks will be gauss in side torsos

if the variant can't mount two of them, it's worthless

>only viable build for all kodiaks

This lad

Kodiak structure buffs when

You think you're actually going to brawl in them?

Fuuuuck

I bet you would put a goose in a cicada too

Is that a yes?

I don't see why not.

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=36&l=1f4b470c5bf6ed08902d55dd677185de0b31cbb5

Ravens?

KDK-1

The base variant is almost never the most useful. And, well, that does hold true here. But with 1 ballistic, 2 missile, and 9 energy hardpoints, you can do some crazy things.

Endo, Standard Armor (max everywhere but legs at 73), XL400 (69.7 KPH)
Gauss Rifle with 3 tons of ammo (RT)
cLarge Pulse Laser (CT)
6x cER Medium Laser (split between arms)
25 DHS, TC1
KDK-2

Here's where things get exciting - the KDK-2 is the only Kodiak with jumpjets, and that's to go along with 1 ballistic and 6 energy hardpoints (and a missile one, I suppose).

Endo, Standard Armor (max everywhere but legs at 81), XL390 (67.9 KPH)
Gauss Rifle with 3 tons ammo (RT)
2x cLarge Pulse Laser (RA)
4x cER Medium Laser (CT and LA)
24 DHS, TC1

you don't see these memes in CW

I haven't seen a Cataphract in almost a year.
>that Grid Iron
People like this should be sterilized, so they can not contaminate the rest of the world.

>buy the Gauss rifle hero
>put a 4J loadout in it
why tho

>All this excitement over Kodiaks
>Buying a Kintaro KT20 for the first time
Also cont when?

>buying kintaros

for what purpose

Because they look cool family
Mechs that look cool > Laserspew meta

Kodiak Quirks

>KODIAK WON'T HAVE (STRUCTURE) QUIRKS
TAKE THAT YOU FUCKERS

nice +10 there buddy

Only two of them don't have structure quirks.

Obviously it was never going to be quirked to Atlas levels but that's a lot better than all of the IIC shitmechs and any extra structure isn't negligible.
NOBODY will use the KDK-1, it was going to be shit anyways. KDK-5 will probably end up doing ERLL/ER PPC memes to compensate, rip SPL/MPL Laserboat.

>thinking of how fast it'll twist with a 400XL and the torso yaw rate
oh god

So when is someone going to open a thread on the Gold Forums complaining that the Kodiak is now the strongest Assault in the game, while the HighlanderIIC gets shit on for quirks?

They'll probably nerf it to dogshit when it becomes available for cbills, when they've already got the real world moneys from the golds :^)

Like I give a fuck, I'll enjoy my pre-ordered Kodiaks for the next 60-90 days. Get fucked, freebaby.

This line of thinking really doesn't work anymore in [current year]. MWO has been a pay2doexactlythesame game for a quite while now.

the only sad thing is that it won´t help the golds play any better :(
Clan golds will still whine about the strucure quirks on my far superior OP ultra meta Orion

Do we even know, if all the quirks actually work by now? I know that most of them hadn´t done anything until half a year or so after the rebalance

It will twist exactly the same as a BLR-2C with a 340 engine. In other words, not very fast at all.

Don't worry guys, the game will get better eventually! You just need to grind through it!

They fixed the accel and crit quirks a couple months ago.

>F2P game has grind
whoa

>bad F2P game has grind

fixt

What's the least shitty clan assault at the moment? (excluding kodiak)

This tbqh familla

If the game was fun no one would give a flying fuck about the grind

>inb4 robutts autism

don't play it then

I don't. I'm just here to make fun of you.

good for you

Thank you, that's kind.

The direwhale.

i'm fine with this, but how will we get past the $2,000 vass has put into star citizen? we cant just write that off, he must be beholden to it if hes invested so much money into it

#getmoneyoutofpolitics

Gotta say fuck you who ever posted this song. Its catchy as hell. youtube.com/watch?v=hcKPAGoDz8A

HE MUST DISAVOW

Should I buy an EXE or just save up Cbills for a sale?

>Should I buy an EXE
Do you like small pulse lasers?

>Should I buy an EXE
Do I really need to answer that question?

I think I can make a poking build for it, but yes I do like small pulse since I run Spurdos.

Hello?

I see Cataphracts rarely, more in the European queue than NA.

But fuck, what he did to that poor Grid Iron.

Yes, it's sexy and fun.

Is it me you're looking for?

hi

Whatcha guys think?

It's shit, so it fits you perfectly.

low test

I think you should help clan smoke jaguar defend Alshain

Give me a second dropping in QP.

It'll work.

Even if it's literally X-D

absolute dog shit

Not enough small pulses

Moar

Get in that ass

Look at all the (You)'s we gave him. That's embarrassing.

Not sure how I feel about this, but least I know some people in this match.

Why would it be Embarrassing to receive feedback?

>unironic Mist Lynx

>Hawken gets rated for Xbone

Subhuman

...

Who the fuck told you about this general anyways? This is just like fucking Pardo, you people NEVER learn.

makes sense

user, that is Pardo.

Possible IIC quirk pass also.
Keeping you posted.

>could have gotten a Raven for a good light
>no I don't like IS I'm a clan-only fag (literally the most retarded approach to the game)
>ignores the Enforcer for the same reason
>could have gotten the Shadowcat for a mediocre but okay clan robot
>chose the irredeemable Shit Lynx instead
>buys a Gargoyle too
I'm amazed you're not running Summoners, do you even possess the cognizance to pilot your robots? Actually, considering you're unironically T4 I guess the answer really is "No."

>"very soon"

The only reason he has Ebins is because he ran Invasion with a completely stock drop deck of trials and it was that or the Warcuck. He then proceeded to whip out his wallet upon receiving his first mech so he could buy camo and colours as well as that badge he has- he sold the grabdeal mechs that came with it since he hates IS.

Hopefully June with the re-scale, because that's supposedly when yet another quirk pass for all mechs is coming.

I have 3 Summoners, 3 Ebins, 3 Novas, 3 Garg, 3 Hunchback IIC, 3 Onions, 2 Huelanders sold the missile variant.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!??

I only bought the origins and resistance 2 pack.

You have to admit "Scrub-Lord" is a good fit to his choices.

On the other hand, it's worth noting that outside the NA servers, 'Mech choices tend to be a lot more into what we'd call "shitbots".

I'm much more likely to see a regular diet of things like Lynxes and Kitfoxes vs. the almost inevitable ACH's in NA queue. Same thing applies all the way up the line- people unironically in Vindicators, Dragons, etc.

It's almost like an entirely different tier of play from NA server drops.

euros confirmed cucks

>Possible IIC quirk pass also

#MAKEONIONSGREATAGAIN

any bets on whether they'll go cross-platform for multiplayer?

but onions were never great you moron

No clue in the slightest

Neither was America. Get it? XD

I hardly play QP unless its Cease Fire or i'm extremely bored of FP.

>Hunchs2s with Hunch power quirks
MAGA

all I ask for is UAC jam quirks

Anything I can kill half the enemy team with has potential, even if it's not meta-tier. Quirks make the 'Mech in many ways in any case.

>actually sold the R2 mechs
>UNIRONICALLY PLAYS FP EXCLUSIVELY
VASS, WE HAVE A KEK!

Better?

>kill half enemy team
