So,

Who runs Wub-only builds???

Please stand up and WUBBaWuBWuBWUBBAWUBBAwUBwUB! (go to 2:28 for wub-drop)

Me?

Wubshee

Wubcada- x2LPL( may run this exclusively in Conquest for a while and see what happens...)

BadderWUB- x2 C-LPL(TC1 instead of TC3 and more DHS)

Spider Wubsassin- 3mpl, ECM

Partyback, just because: reasons

Work in progress: NovaWub, MAYBE a WubWhale, Hunchback with x2 lpl and spl, Quad mpl jenner?, Wubcust(3 mpl? i need a xl170 first)

[El Bandito]

FS9-S with quad MPLs. I guess you can call it -- the Wubstarter.

WubShee is always a fun time.


Well, when hitreg is on your side. I've been having some pretty bad matches for hitreg. Full burn into stationary Ember legs, which are 48 IS+A, yet my 52 damage doesn't even make them red, let alone remove them, after they've already been damaged.

Another case was a stationary Centurion, lined up a full burn into a rear CT, which spread to the rRT...and despite 50+damage into a rear torso, not a single section was opened....


I'm not sure if pulse lasers are worse for hitreg, since if you miss a tick you lose a lot more damage than regular lasers.


When hitreg works, they are fun.

Wub everything.

The Wubcrow

Fun Fact: 2x CMPLs with MK I TC + T5 Range module = 372m range.


That competes directly vs. IS LPL.


4 Tons vs. 7 Tons
14 Damage vs. 10.6
12 Heat vs. 8
3 extra DHS vs. 0 extra DHS (based on weapon weight)


So that Wub Crow with it's 44 point alpha has the equivalent of 4x IS LPLs.
It costs 36 heat to alpha, firing 4 IS LPLs would cost 42.75 heat to alpha.

If you like IS LPLs, then you really should have no issue with the suboptimal CMPL.

I ran a 7 med pulse 400 XL awesome back in closed beta.

I am wary of the wub, but the WubShee is starting to turn me around.

And also tend to agree on hitreg, very painful in non-elited 3M WbuShee

I've had some issues like that too but mostly on Ravens and their wonky torsos. Wish you would have stuck around longer last wed after the stock matches ended early. You missed out on some quality Wubbbin and the two of us could have cleaned up. Your SA friends make it difficult to stand out tho since they're all quite good.

I know you're talking about the engine nerf but the PPC only quirks also have me worried they will gut my favorite wubber, the 9M.

The WubShee has nothing on the WubMaster

OOoooo I gotta try one of those next.

[Wraith 1]

HBK-4P, because a mere 8 wubcannons is not enough.

I see a few good regulars running 6 MPLs on the 4P but with 48% heat alphas and that's simply not good enough for a fragile medium in my book. When the hunch is gone they can't even zombie like the 9M can.

[Obi1Raven]

Try the WubSlinger, can't link Smurfys, but 6mpl, 2 x srm6 and an xl390 makes for great wubbing at high speeds.

[Shadow Magnet]

Long before I heard about the WubShee, I ran this build (back then with AMS, today with Radar Depr.):

The WubBoar! I really loved how I could leg Spiders with the arm based LPLs - of course they tend to get lost fast :-(

[MeiSooHaityu]

I rock the ThunderWub (S5S). 5 MPLasers, and 2 ERLLasers for range. Nice build, bit hot, but normally fairly effective.

My 4 wubbuilds=
JR7-K Wubner
TDR-5SS Wubbolt
SPARKY Wubfin
BLR-3M

Especially the wubfin and Wubmaster have been much joy to me.People be like: ooh look just shootings of side torso kill wubmaster, but noh, Wubmaster uses STD Engine! KEEP ON WUBBIN

Lies!

It doesn't have the amazing shield arms that the Banshee has. They do have some very nice high hardpoints, though.
