I thought I could post this under the "Support and Feedback" section, but I guess it is not for feedback.... It seems to me that the clan LRM artemis takes a very long time to achieve lock, quite a bit longer than the IS version. Is this a known issue or some kind of "balance" for clan mechs? Does anyone else feel they lock a lot slower?

Just tried standard clan LRM, not artemis, and they lock faster than artemis. I know that my IS artemis missles lock as fast if not faster than standard LRM.

Artemis should affect lock time. It does take a lot of cirts and tonnage if you got a lot of launchers.

It is supposed to improve lock time, missile grouping, and missile tracking.

When I equipped artemis it made it take longer to get a lock. I also noticed my LRMs would sometimes move to a location where the enemy was as though it had lost the lock regardless of if I did in fact lose the lock.

I think it's part of a future Clan bidding system; you can deliberately attach a system to your guidance system that will screw things up, sort of like Wheatley, in order to lower your bid without technically taking less ordinance.



No, seriously, what EXACTLY are the effects of Artemis on Clan missiles?
