Wolverine Wvr-6K - Throw It Down The Well
#1
Posted 21 December 2013 - 05:42 AM
Loadouts I've tried:
LRM 10
2 ER LL
3 ML
XL280
SRM6
2 LL
3 ML
XL300
SRM2
2 PPC
3 ML
XL340
SRM2
1 ML
4 MPL
XL375
It feels like I can put in a big engine and have less firepower and speed then a Jenner, while still being big like TBolt. The other option is to lower my engine size and up my firepower. The problem with that is I have slower torso twist and no JJ which usually results in me losing my arm if I try to engage. Strangely enough most people shoot off my left (and empty) arm first but I will lose my weapons pretty quick still.
Out of the Saber package this is the only one I am really having trouble with.
Is anyone having success with the 6K? If you are; what is your loadout and how are you playing it?
Please note I only PUG.

in short, basic it out and scrap it asap.

I'll still likely basic it and park it; it just can't compete with the other chassis.

End of the day, it simply is bad. I am just now finding good builds for the others, but the 6Krap is just bad. There really is nothing it does that another mech doesn't do better.

This is the worst mech in the sabor package so I will definantly seel this mech when I am done mastering.

Five MLs is nothing to sneeze at (the arm alone has the same damage as an AC20), and an LRM20 gives you a goodly bit of indirect punch for the early phases of battle. Try to stay back and provide fire support until you run low on ammo and enemies start to get opened up, then you can move in with the lasers and carve them to pieces. Being a medium you don't want to start brawling too soon or you'll die before you can make much of an impact. The LRM launcher gives you the ability to hold off on diving in to the melee.

Can also consider a Tag and more ammo - a DHS in place of a medium laser.

from the above builds, Levi's would be the only one I'd see working consistently - but then, everything it can do, a Kintaro/Griffin can do better.
on the plus side, at least it looks better than the Griffin

its brutal it overheats in after 2 shot but man that 2 shot is hurts
its extremely fast so getting in and out of fight is easy flanking or hit and run tactic is a child's play with this.
its become one of my all time favorite.

XL 375 (121.4 KPH)
5 ML
SRM 6
17 DHS
Endo plus Ferro.
Max armour.
Remember the Cent 9D? This mech plays very similar... 37 Alpha to the back of an assault mech, turn to the right to absorb damage off your shield arm, run round his flank again and finish him off.

The other two Wolverines are much better. The 6R is my favorite of the Saber pack so far. It's nice when the prime chassis is one of the best variants, unlike the Phoenix pack.

I've been running mine with a PPC, LRM10 and 3 MLs (XL300) - and it's worked well... But I like this build better. That is a LOT of firepower and armor to be moving at 120kph+.
