I hardly get below 400 dmg with my Jester in normal PUG matches - and that's with my 3xPPC + 3xML fun build. With 4xML + 2x ERLL I even reached 791 dmg.
A few tips that might help you to survive longer:
- you are a mid to long range direct fire support mech
- never be the first to enter a brawl (stay away from possible brawling areas and support your teammates once the fight has started by shooting at the enemies they target)
- be careful about your positioning (try not to be the first target your enemies see)
- never peek around a corner if there might be an enemy on the other side (instead back off a bit and shoot him when he tries to get around the corner) (I regularly fail at this one >.<)
- use your speed and JJ to get away from enemies that try to get close to you
- always stay with your teammates (well, that's mandatory anyways ^^)
To sum it up: I like my Jester and it's worth every cent I paid for it ^^
I am very well aware of all the pointers you have given. But here is my issue, for some or other reason I can't destroy anything with lasers, it is like shooting blanks. In game I twice hit a Spider, that I caught off guard, with 2xLPulse and 3xM lasers burst and nothing happened. Am I aiming wrong? Do I have Lag issues? I have used every type of laser in the list and it is a waste for me. I don't use PPC for I will repeatedly hit a target with no hits scored, but he can shoot the s..t out of me with his.
The only time I score hits is when I get in real close.
