This was done with a 4 PPC Stalker build with 21 double heat sinks on Frozen City. Does it look like a balanced build and match to you? You tell me. Perhaps I got lucky. Perhaps I'm really good. Perhaps i'm using an OP build. I'm leaning towards the latter.

Only 1014? Noob.

An Assault Mech breaking 1000 damage? How is this a huge deal?

[Troggy]

Keep in mind, EVERY single division of the assault tournament was dominated by people that had more than 1000 damage per match for their best ten over the weekend.

Did you take a photograph of your screen? Also, that's not that impressive a score. It's good, but nothing out of the ordinary.

[Jay Z]

It's a Stalker! It's going to destroy stuff. If you want to stop a dangerous mech, focus fire it early. I've gotten over 1000 damage a multiple times without PPCs. STK-3F

You know nothing about being a noob. I never got more than 200 dmg per match when using PPCs!

Oh do I get to wip out my epeen in this thread too? Any competent player can do a decent amount of damage in a half decent mech... ppc's or not.

i do believe the damage done to internals can be multiplicative, and so when you blow off a side torso your damage can be much higher than what the mech actually did, if you follow what i mean. (most often the guy with the most kills and component desturction did the most damage.)

all 1000+ damage in a PPC Stalker tells me is someone has bad aim. Since a Good shot can core out most mechs in 2-3 volleys tops, even using a HexStalker and the occasional poor shot, 5 kills with 1000+ damage isn't that impressive. Hell, when I use PPCs, my damage always go down. even if my kills go up.

I've gotten 999 on a Centurion without PPCs...

[LethalMezzle]

I'm pretty sure that you could achieve 1000 damage with any build given enough disparity in pilot skill.

Except for a Machine Gun and Flamer only build, I guess.

Oh, if only I had a bigger epeen... I've never broken 1000. I'm going to moderately disagree and say >1000 dmg in a game is pretty remarkable. If PGI put out that bell curve, 1000 is waaaaay out to the right.

I've been killed over 1,000 times, does that count?

[Roadbeer]

Looks to me like you spent more time peeling every bit of armor off your enemies than trying to actually kill them.

Your team probably would have won if you weren't so busy failing.

15 minutes is not enough time to do 1000 damage with a machine gun or flamer, even if you fired non-stop the whole match.

Lol, 1000 damage Is usualy caused by someone whos using a "spray build" or is fighting a crap load of assaults that can shield while you have a high damage mech... moral of the story is just because you got 1000 damage doesn't meen your "pro" or "OP", just meens a lot of things got shot.

[Davers]

@OP Any mech that is left alone and allowed to fire at will will do that kind of damage. I would bet you stayed at range and kept firing while your team mates were out front, and you were probably one of the last to die. Not saying this in a condescending way or anything!

I know. those matches I got 3-4 kills in my Dual AC/20 Jagermech I often didn't break 400 damage. 40 pt Cockpit shots or rear torso core outs don't allow me to do enough damage to be an Uber-Serious Bizniz Leet Pro-Gamer. Makes Steiner a sad panda.

literally hundreds of us did well over 1000 damage over the weekend for the tourney. Anyone on any of the top 15 leaderboards probably had a a 1500 damage game and many 1000 damage games.

And many of us didn't even care enough to sign up...
