I love my 4SP but I am still not seeing a good result with them. My damage usually doubles if I change from srm6 + art to simply streaks. I hate doing that.

Last night I got 5 kills (2 shadowhawks, 1 Jenner, and 2 victors) and did over 600 damage with 3 ASRM6 and 1 medium laser (which the Jenner shot off me half way through the match) I don't know why srms aren't working for some of you but they are working great for me so long as I use Artemis with them. No way I could kill a Jenner with SRMs if they weren't registering right. I do wish PGI would tighten the non-artemis spread a little so we at least have a chance to get all missiles to hit maybe we would have to be close enough or at just the right range or something skill based. As they are non-artemis SRMs are still garbage.

Great picture, I love it and agree.

Let me now redirect you to the OP where I tell you not to believe me, but to go out and try it for yourself. It seems as though they are working for some but not all. You want data, load up a mech with Artemis SRMs and see for yourself. I would love to hear of your experience

Best I can tell it varies match to match. So one match they might get very good hit dection and another match you might not. These matches can string together to give you a good night or bad night.

one of the problems people (including me) have been reporting is not so much SRMs don't hit at all but the hit detection is unstable. I've been using a kintaro-18 (3 ASRM-6 + 2ASRM-4) and some matches I get 800+ dmg and other times I might has well have been throwing marshmallows. that's why some ppl have been complaining they don't hit and others don't understand why
