Here's a HGA Technical Readout Manual tool just made available for checking out and editing the armor values for Gears so that server hosts can effectively create house rules on their own servers. Sounds like other stats relating to Gear performance can be eventually included and it also might be usable for customizing weapon stats down the road as well. Details in the forum post.

CERPPC is used quite a bit right now.

>2ERPPC 2Gauss KDK-3

All three of these are highly used especially competitively.

Cerppc is great. I have lots of fun with this.

For mumble.

No, too busy having fun

More.

Shouldn't dust 514 be replaced by a tombstone now?

Ye but its an old pic
LEGION FUCKING WHEN

what shitass thought making Dust a PS3 exclusive was a good idea?

CCP, since they were in a weird financial spot at the time and they thought the Sony support was a good bet. That said, if they had just went with the PC anyway their game undoubtedly would never have died and they wouldn't have alienated their entire playerbase.

>It's a kong doesn't want you in the cool kids club room episode

You wanted to be part of the sekrit club.

how do i get good at the shadowhawk?

Sell it.

Guy who started yesterday here.
I caved in and used some extra steambucks I had from selling cards to buy me a Loup de Guerre.
SRM might be my new calling. It's so easy to top damage by just playing patiently.
When is a good time to start investing in modules?
Do I have to fork over more cash to get mech bays or is there a way to get them f2p?

>spending money on MWO
>spending money on a Trebuchet

How is this so easy for PGI?

Which one? Mostly they brawl well with an ac10+4srm4s, or 3asrms6 + 3ml

They hand them out in events, you can also earn them by gaining ranks in faction warfare.

the 2K with 3ASRM6 and 3MPL

>3ASRM6 3MPL

wew lad, that's 3 extra tons from the MPLs

can someone recommend me a good build for the Highlander IIC B?
it has only 1 ballistic and 2 energy but 4 missile pods with 20 tubes each.
this is what i have reduced myself to do in it even tho i hate lurming:

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=379&l=6e3ddc72e0bda14335fe000f6bb2e979b2ba31ad

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=379&l=6e3ddc72e0bda14335fe000f6bb2e979b2ba31ad

i dont really see any other alternative, since it has 1 ballistic slot and the CUAC20 is unreliable garbage, the LB-20X fits but its a meme weapon and i dont like gauss unless i can mount at least 2 of them.
i really dont know what else to do with this variant.

>inb4 hurr durr sell it and buy a bear robot
fuck that.
Kodiak is a faggot homo gay robot for tryhards and shitters.
the Highlanders are the only honorable assault mechs, apart from the Atlas.

...

Sell it and buy a KDK-3.

>honourable
>uses LRMs

as i said, its just a test build while i get at least the basics down.
im not comfortable in brawling with it without at least the basics.

i play my IIC-C with 2 CLPL 2CUAC10 and it absolutely wrecks shit.
will upgrade to 2 CERPPC 2 CUAC10 when i have elite and double basics, for now its too hot to mount CERPPCs and keep a reliable fire rate in a brawl.
in any case, these are the other two builds i will try:

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=379&l=edf5b53ca53d162b2838831eb10f344af1b2a63f

mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=379&l=1256096c0a97123a4efa4e5b05e849ed7c6cb50a

but still, i refuse in any case to use the CUAC20 because everytime i have to overpower something in brawl range it jams every single double tap, and even if it doesnt jam the bullets spread damage way too fucking much, at 200 meters or less the CLB20X is more fucking accurate.

>XBOXHEUGE Targeting computer
>almost no heat sinks
>small lasers
>LB20-X
I thought my builds were bad, goddamn lol.

eat a dick

why are you so fucking retarded?

Not until you sell it for a KDK-3.

18 heatsinks are enough to cool off 2 CERPPC, and 1 gauss, look at the cooling efficiency in case you havent seen it, and i dont have any other ballistic nor energy hardpoints to fill, so if i dont intend to use the missile pods what am i gonna use the tonnage on?
7 more heatsinks would be overkill.
35% projectile speed from TCOMP 7 is much more useful to reliably hit at max range with it.

and, my dear uneducated illiterate friend, the TCOMP doesnt matter how big it is, or where you put it, because even when it is destroyed you dont lose your bonuses from it.
it tells you it got destroyed but thats it.
the way PGI has coded them cant have a mech lose the bonuses from TCOMP even when its critted out.

and about the LB"=, did you even read what i said?
im gonna quote myself, in case you are too stupid to read the post before

Jumpjets on a huelander are a waste. Assault jets are shit in general, and the huelander has nerfed ones on top of that. Just use it for more firepower and heatsinks.

why do you have no arguments on your post?
how about you reply on topic with arguments instead of calling someone a retard without anything to back that up?

What's wrong with spending steambucks on a medium SRM mech?
I checked Metamechs and it's not bad according to their tier list.

>and the huelander has nerfed ones on top of that

only the IS huelander i think, not sure tho.

however with just 2 JJ on my IIC-C i can get on top the highest buildings in Mining Collective, or on top the rock formations in Tourmaline.
they are just very useful in climbing faster but i guess i could try without them and see how it goes.

The only arguments I need are your shit builds and shitposts.

>18 heatsinks are enough to cool off 2 CERPPC, and 1 gauss, look at the cooling efficiency in case you havent seen it, and i dont have any other ballistic nor energy hardpoints to fill, so if i dont intend to use the missile pods what am i gonna use the tonnage on?
Maybe some better weapons, like in the second build you linked which was kinda gettin' there.

>35% projectile speed from TCOMP 7 is much more useful to reliably hit at max range with it.
Useless. If you're sniping with this, you're a useless shitter, plain and simple.

>PGI is incompetent, you retain TCOMP buffs if TCOMP is destroyed
Don't care. Not the reason a size I TCOMP is suggested, it's because anything over is a pointless waste of tonnage.

>but still, i refuse in any case to use the CUAC20 because everytime i have to overpower something in brawl range it jams every single double tap, and even if it doesnt jam the bullets spread damage way too fucking much, at 200 meters or less the CLB20X is more fucking accurate.

Okay, so take a standard AC/20. Doesn't jam.
Spread damage means nothing, unless you're an old man with no reaction time or have Parkinson's your only excuse for bad aim is being an Omega shitter. Which you obviously are anyway, but hey.

>Spread damage means nothing,
yes it does.
in a brawl 1v1 with another assault mech that has pinpoint damage and when both mechs are actively manouvering and circlestrafing each other, UAC20 spreads damage way too much, at that range i prefer one single blast from the LB20X than hits one component and crits out the internals as well.

also
>Okay, so take a standard AC/20. Doesn't jam.

>using the standard CAC ever

LMAO
and you even have the guts to call someone bad or a retard?
i think by a large margin you are the only real retard in here.

>they are just very useful in climbing faster

I'll admit that being slowed down by every little hill is very annoying, it's just spending 4 tons is pretty significant.

.t proud Tier 4 pilot

No, it literally doesn't, unless you're a shitter that can't aim for fuck. The irony is that you think the LBX DOESN'T spread damage equally as much, if not more.

>LMAO you're the retard for suggesting standard ACs after I just admitted that I'M the ultra shitter who can't use UACs

lmao
XD
WEW LAD
Well memed my dude.
Spicy
100

at 200 or less meters LB20X is accurate enough to hit just one component in an enemy assault sized mech before he torsotwists and has an extra chance to crit out internals after i opened the armor with SRMs.

meanwhile your shitty CUAC20 firest a volley of slower bullets that when playing against anyone that is higher than a tier 3 shitter more than half that damage will be torsotwisted and spread away.
and if that wasnt enough, it jams pretty much everytime you try to use its only redeeming quality, the doule tap, making the weapon completely worthless for 7 or so seconds.

but then again, i dont think you get matched against competent pilots who even know what torsotwisting or spreading damage it, let alone knowing how to counter a brawl build.

have fun in tier 5.

Against structure the LBX does 20% more damage on average.

I never noticed just how much BR's and the golds have in common.

Any news about HBS's Battletech? I haven't been keeping up with development.

They had a little tech demo a month ago of a single lance v lance battle. It looked pretty good.

I'm maxed tier 1.

Holy fuck you guys are both terrible

>you having bad eyes is my fault

Oh well

Looks like this tool was used during the Play with the Devs session this evening by setting up an Instagib server with the Gears having 1 point of armor in each location. So effectively if players want the ability to determine their own idea of gameplay balance rather than use the official servers balance settings, they can do so.
