I am sorry, but I really cannot properly evaluate some of these builds unless you include the BAC.

BAC?

Thought the Banshee with 6 medium lasers (and ONLY six medium lasers) would be the worst I'd run into...

Last match: A Invasion(!) Direwolf with an AC/2 and four ERsmall lasers. The pilot wasn't even playing too badly. Selfimposed hard mode?

[Wildstreak]

This first one, I once tried to chat him to come to the forums, got an over aggressive response telling me to worry about my bad play. End of Match showed I outscored him. I keep outscoring him every time I see him no matter what teams we are on, same or opposing.


I though it could not get worse. Then I met this guy.


I also met this Awesome pilot on a few occasions. Those hard to see weapons are 2 LRM20s and 1 LRM15.


Continuing the tradition of Bad Stalker pilots though I am not sure if this guy is skilled or just got lucky. Red weapons are 3 LRM15s. I still think this is a bad build but he did score extremely well the one time I saw him on Caustic.


Next up is this Catapult, red weapon is a SSRM2.


LRM60 Ebon.


Now you may wonder why this is a bad build, well when someone uses it at long range.....


It looks good until you see it used mainly as a LRM boat.


These are the builds that make me wish I could FaceMech.

To my great shame, I spent a great deal of time playing this build while trying to master my Cicada 3C:

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...0585a4bd918ddce

It was sort of like a 2xERLL raven in that it was better at annoying people than actually killing anything. Generally, my goal was to tag every enemy mech at least once so I could get the kill assist XP. I had a really, really hard time finding a build that actually worked for me with the 3C, and this one sucked pretty hard but I was able to generate acceptable XP with it.

I had problems with the 3C too (this was before quirks), so I decided to run it like my Locust 1V (4 MG, 1ML), a late game exploiter of cored locations. Though it was beefed up a bit by having an ERLL instead of a ML (and having lots more armor): http://mwo.smurfy-ne...0363bd29684998e

Couldn't get a screen shot, but came across an A1 during the weekend event that had one LRM15 and one SRM 6.

@ Wildstreak

I met a Griffin today that would've been a great addition to your list. All he had were 4x ALRM5. Thankfully he was on the other team.

Also what's up with all those LRM5 Commandos lately. And that is a single LRM5 and nothing else loaded. My fav mech is the Commando and I die a little inside everytime I see this

lrm-5 light isn't that bad, it's a great nuisance, especially if you have ecm

[bad arcade kitty]

met a 4 ppc thunderbolt today... on the magma chamber, nonetheless
i dunno how but that thing managed to survive and to do pretty decently

not a bad build really but definitely a troll one imo

Highlander spotted yesterday armed only with one LRM15...

Spotted an AS7-S with a mighty loadout of 4 Medium Lasers.

Do not know for sure, but from the looks of it, it must have been this mighty build:

The cooling efficiency, though.

[The Mech behind you]

Spotted a Locust with just 2 MGs today. I always thought with that limit in tonnage you can't come up with a fail Locust lodout. Stupid me, I underestimated the power of PUGs. I spectated how that guy shot at targets at >300m. Now what is really sad is that he scored 25 damage and still outdamaged our Thud

I gave up on the cicada 3C til I threw together boomcada- ac20 4 tons of ammo and a ML. sure it may only move at 74kph with max armor- but dammit it usually kills something before dying

[bad arcade kitty]
