Fairly sure that's a stock build... still though

Yup. ADR-A comes with an LRM20 in each arm, a small pulse laser in each side torso, and then a flamer in the CT. The ADR-PRIME stock is pretty damn good though, stock loadout almost nailed that one. I love my ADR-PRIME. Only change I made to is was when they unlocked the flamer that was previously fixed on all the ADRs I replaced it with an ER Small Laser. Before they unlocked the flame though I actually got a killing blow on a Thunderbolt with my Flamer. That was also before they changed the way flamers work to their current state. But yeah, basement on HPG manifold, Thunderbolt took my two ERPPCs to the chest and lived just barely, probably only had two points of HP left in his CT. Hosed him down with the flamer while my ERPPCs were on cooldown and he blew up and I got the kill. Most memorable kill I ever got right there.

..... I might've been that Centurion. Doeswell on most maps, acually. Caustic Valley is not one of those maps.

... and AC20 3SRM2 CN9-AH is quite the opposite of a bad build. it works better than a YLW.

i once saw an atlas loaded with large lasers, he tried to snipe with it before dying to a single raven

the Atlas BH with 5LPL or 6LL is quite good. a bad pilot would still be bad in it. like the stream of 200 average damage KDK3 quad10s around. bad pilot in a good setup doesnt equal good matches.

A recent build I saw was an AS7-D-DC w/ an AC 20, 2 mediums and an SRM 4 (I believe, don't remember exact missile type for sure)

I don't know how he managed that, but it was hilarious for me. I was scared of him but then realized he has the firepower of the HBK.

Another build of note was a Spirit Bear (In the Championship!) w/ a UAC 10, 2 ERLLs and I think 3 LRM 10As.

I guess it was only a matter of time, but I spotted a Phoenix Hawk lurm boat.

Not sure if I would qualify just 2 Lrm racks as a lurm boat, but I know what you mean. Ive spotted a couple myself

Well the Hunchback 4J is considered a Lurm boat if I'm not mistaken, that only runs two LRM 10s. Two very quirked LRM 10s, but still...

[Requiemking]

Old NGNG build. Might have been good before quirks, but now it gets the "WTF am I looking at?" award.

Atlas DDC with 2x Ac2s and 2x ERLL..

Always good to see a 100 tonner that almost has the firepower of Roflman

[UnofficialOperator]

Just saw a Hunchback with 1x LRM 20 with artemis. Died last after getting its LRM blown off in 1 shot. Seriously wtf.

[DevlinCognito]

We pushed through Gamma gate on Sulphurous killing the defenders and even though damaged I started knocking down a Generator. Took a few shots from behind and as I around my heart skipped as an Atlas was bearing down on me. Twisting like a madman I tried to shield my damaged areas until my targeting info popped up.

1 Large Pulse Laser.

Nothing else.

1.

I stopped and had to remember how to screenshot that one as I was laughing so hard.

Suspect running into this ON1-K awhile back.

Getting plinged by AC2 in alpine domination, expecting an AC2 Blackjack but turns out to be an Orion.
Game goes into a brawl around dish as usual, encounter it again with it running and gunning like a mad man.
Confirmed no XL as I took out his SRMs torso but didn't kill him.
We won, he manage to score 2 kills and over 400 damage.

Maybe not facepalm worthy but the odd AC2.

Okay bar none, I have found the worst mech ever that didn't intentionally not load weapons or something. It was in River City, and it was awful.
19 KPH Stalker. Why would you ever do this?!?

I know why people do that. The answer is "Because LRMs".

actually the 75/80/100 lrm stalker is a legit troll build but the days of LRM overlords are gone...

That was glorious! I cannot believe I'm saying this, but I kind of miss those crazy lurmageddon games. Not enough of them in Tier 2.

I think it's time they buff LRM's a little bit (maybe through basic mechanics of how they work, make them halfway useful without locks and within min range as in tabletop). Then release the Longbow. Yeah.

[KillStealR]

Kodiak-5 With 11 ERML and a guass rifle. I could boil soup while watching them fire. My Doing lol.

Kodiak-1 With 8 Small Pulse uac 20 and a SSRM6. It was complete madness, and constantly blinking warning. My Doing lol.

Kodiak-3 With 4 LB 2 and 2 ERLL. I really scratched somebodies armor after a while. My Doing lol.

Shadowcat-P With 7 C-MG and 28,000 rounds. Talk about tickling people to death. My Doing lol.

Viper Prime With Custom Omnis and 10 ERSL. You could almost watch the heat climb while running. My Doing lol.

I guess you could say i am not afraid to try weird things, but some ideas leave me saying "how many drinks did i have that night." That is all of my bad, strange, and wildly ineffective builds i can think of right now.
