Re: Mech Warrior OnlineRaven 3L is a cheese mech just like splatcat
It will always continue to be cheese until they fix the hitbox and lagshield. This also goes for all lights |

I cap more than my share of lights in my Atlas AC20 killing machine. |

Played a good 20 games of this this weekend.
My best game was 400+ dmg and 2 kills.
My first mech set up is a Hunchback mech w/ 1x Guass Rifle (30rnds) 2x Medium lazor 1x AMS UPG Armor UPG Frame UPG Heat sinks 225 standard engine 72.1 kph top speeds
My first set up was 1 Guas + 1 ER PPC but it wasn't very heat efficient and I didn't have room for an AMS or much armor so I switched to the 2 mediums and got more armor and I felt much more durable.
I am basically looking to stay back and cover our big guns. If I find an assult I try to pelt it from range and dodge in and out of getting targeted. I can 1v1 assults pretty easily as well w/ 70+ speed. Dat circle straff. |

Had a few very awesome games yesterday. Finally got a pretty good handling of my Jenny and I now know exactly its limitations and who to engage and from who to run the fuck away. It's also fully decked out. I'm just not sure if I should keep 3 jump jets, or go to 1 jump jet and add back AMS. Also used the opportunity to get a second mech while everyone abandoned me and Jobbie. I kept thinking of getting a med/heavy... but I could never play them. I hate being a turtle... so I went for a spider 5D instead. It still sucks as it overheats like crazy, barely has any armour and slow as hell... but it'll be a real annoying little beast once I get double heatsinks, a new XL 300 engine and a little ECM box. Then I'll be spreading my ECM love all over the battle field. |

What is ECM ? |

Electronic Countermeasure. It basically creates a little bubble around me and everyone next to me and screws up with enemy sensors. They need to be within 200m to actually see anyone under ECM on rader, and missile locks take twice as long. |

OOOOOOO thats why I cant get targets on some mechs at long range ?
It all makes sense now. Haha I kept second guessing myself and wondering if I was blowing away team mates. |

The Hunchbacks are a lot of fun, f0rty. My hunchback has 8 medium lasers. I've been calling him the surgeon lately, because I can hit a precise spot with an alpha strike and rip an arm off in one or two blasts. |

ECM is where it's at right now. ECM is a must have on the next several mechs I'm purchasing. I think it's a bit overpowered right now. A Raven 3L with ECM, going 136-150kph, locking on you with streaks and 3 medium lasers is just way too much to compete against. |

Lol. My driving skills aren't that good. I'd rather stay far away.
My model has 2 enery and 3 ballistics which is dumb I should have bought the 1 ballistics 5 energy model so I could do 4 med lazors.
How useless are machine guns? I have used them and not used them and they don't seem to do much. |

I like the Hunchback a lot, my main currently is the 4SP which I have all elited out, tried the laserboat 4P and it was OK but too much heat to move around, the last I used was the 4G which has the AC20 balistics weapon.
The only good thing about the 4G is being able to one shot Arch and ekster while running around on their lights. |

said by f0rtys3ven:Lol. My driving skills aren't that good. I'd rather stay far away. Let me introduce you to my LRM boat build if you have zero piloting skills. All you have to do is have awareness, stay with your pack, place yourself in high, well-guarded positions and fire away. You don't need twitch reflexes or mad driving skills. You just need to have command of the map and probably 8-9 mill in cbills. My LRM boat fires off volleys of 60 missiles at a time. I have frequently said "My missiles will blot out the sun." When left alone, I have put out 1200+ damage in a single game. How useless are machine guns? I have used them and not used them and they don't seem to do much. They're garbage. Even after they were "buffed", they're still garbage. Even if you slapped 8 of them on, they're still garbage. |
