    Are we still using Vent for communications? I’ll have to redownload it and get the info again if so.

    Lately we've been using Discord since too many of you all use it.

    @Erlkönig and I were probably the last two to use Vent.

    I should be on. Trying to get studying in for my CompTIA Linux test today while I'm at work so I can.

    If I can get enough spacebux before the sale goes off, I plan on doing a 6xLB5X one, too.

    Thinking I want to build an srm or mrm assault boat. Any chassis recommendations?

    Stalker is the obvious choice but im worried about those barn door sides up close.

    CP-10-Q would be my choice. Agile, relatively fast, decent armor and structure. Plus, if you consistently run into the same lights, you can pop Streaks on it and make them shit their pants when they try to go after Charlie Lance right off the drop.

    The loyalty version with MRMs, MLs and ECM is nice. Makes people back away really fast. Actually I need to try it out with the new heat thing....


    At first I thought you were also going to try out ATMs and would have recommended the Nova Cat.

    Stalker is probably one of the least good SRM/MRM chassis. The twist on that torso is so bad.

    Cyclops-10-Q is the meta-choice for SRM splatting and the Mauler has really nice bunny ears for two big MRM lanchers.

    MAL-2P is probably my next assault mech, and I'm going either MRM60 Mal or UAC Mal

    Yep, but it was free and in more capable hands than me it is a murdering juggernaut.

    I modeled it after Cheerios who inspired the mech build. Which I should know better than copy since he can also do insane damage in any mech he pilots.

    Might have to go mal or cp. Stalker has always been an unlucky chassis for me

    I saw that Fafnir build from the other page and immediately saw some changes that I'd want to make :P

    Std295, 4 LBX10, 1 MPL

    My turn to channel Erlkonig: Why a single MPL? *edit* weird. Smurfy didn't show the ECM when I clicked on it the first time. Anyway, the MPL tonnage could be better used for more ammo. A single MPL isn't gonna scare anything off.

    At the end of a match when two Assaults are flopping around without any ammo. Yep, that MPL will win the game.

    I think the 3xRAC2 Shadow Hawk will be seeing action tonight.

    Ebon Jaguar: Nice gauss mech with a fairly well synched secondary laser loadout.
    Jagermech: Jagermechs are IMHO not great, but twin gauss looks like a solid loadout.
    Thunderbolt: Tripple LPL. I don't think I like this loadout. It's a bit too hot, the heatsinks aren't in a great place, the engine isn't what I'd like and I don't like having all primary weapons in the same component. But it can poke pretty well I guess.
    Timberwolf: Pretty good loadout. Fairly cold, solid loadout. Well protected primary weapons (two LPLs, 3 ERMLs as backup)

    For whatever reason, I can do serious work with this mech and loadout. I think it's mostly because the 'bolt can take a good beating. And you can use up your arms shielding. Agreed though, all weapons on one component means you can get stick'ed, but hopefully by that point you've done plenty of damage. Gotta stay away from machine gun boating lights though, someone who knows what they're doing can neuter you quick.

    I think the 3xRAC2 Shadow Hawk will be seeing action tonight.

    Now that they changed the quirks to global cooldown I like running it with:
    LBX10
    SRM6 x2
    SRM4
    LMG x2
    Light PPC

    Suddenly, I'm kinda tempted to move my twin-RAC5 Shadow Hawk over to a twin-LB10X Shadow Hawk...

    I'd honestly group them in 3.

    LBX10, LMGX2 on 1.
    SRMs on 2.
    Light PPC on 3.

    Okay, the ER Large didn't work out as I felt I needed more ammo, so it's a MPL now instead, but the 3xLB2X build is fun.

    Then just LBX on 3

    Everyone already replied to it, but that's just bad design not showing your rewards if you quit from a match. I really thought I recieved none and was being punished for not sitting through 10 minutes of nothing. I had sat through the match previous and noticed people leaving, but it was skirmish so I only had to wait for one mech to die.

    You think MWO has UI problems? Surely not.
