I know that there are only a few of us out there, but I want to know what you guys like to run? I mostly throw my xl355 (126.9 KPH) or 375 (133 KPH) in with a mix of SRM(4-6)+A and ML or MPLS.

Just got a round on caustic conquest with 162 match score, 5 kills, 4 assists, and 1277 damage with 2 mls, 2 SRM6+A and an xl355, (126KPH tweaked)

Who here still loves rockin the D and outrunning clan lights easily?

Surprised you can carry that much ammo for 1200dmg. You running 5t of ammo?

Med lasers+2 ASRM6s. Nothing else matters outside of a large speedy engine.

Maybe a bullseye artillery hit?

//edit: Not trying to take anything away from you, mate. Good job! Will try a sprinter cent myself now.

Never ran the CN9-D like that, but I did something similar with my TBT-3C over the weekend Tournament.

Not as good as your match, but had a 4 kill 600 damage match in it. Would have been better, but I ran out of ammo

Well, not over, but right at 106.9 is my CN9-D. LB10-X, 2x MedLas, 2x SRM4+A, XL300. Probably my favorite Cent out of the 4 I have now. I do tend to light hunt in it and surprise a few here an there. It's one of my mechs in which I've gotten a 5 kill round (the other being a brawling Highlander). Though admittedly, the crit RNG was in my favor that day as I found many armor weakened foes. Don't think I've ever crested 1k dmg in it though so my hat is off to you there.

[BARBAR0SSA]

The reason he got that damage more than likely is that he caused ammo explosions on LRM boats and ACs on the IS mechs.

They not only destroy the leg but the explosion travels up the mech and booms other areas as well possibly causing a chain explosion.

Clans have case in every location from my understanding.

I go hard with an XL390, 2 streak2s, 2 MLs and 2 MGs, basically [demolish] light mechs.

I've also run 2 SRM4s with 3 tons ammo which works better against heavier targets. Have to lose the MGs though.

Reduce your Engine to a 350 and add 1.5t more ammo.

So nobody shot your side torso?

using ferro will free you a ton

[Mechteric]

I like the 300XL on my Wang, with AC20 and 2 MPLs

[Kaeb Odellas]

Yes, I too love going hard and fast on an enemy mech's backside with my Wang or D.

[ollo]

114kph, LB10-X, 2 ML.

Just don't let your Wang arm pop too soon!

[LT. HARDCASE]

Been waiting for a sale on a Cent D, to mess around with this XL380 I have sitting around. If only the zombie sale was on cbills.

But now the Ice Ferret is out next week, so instead I'll hunt lights in that.

That sounds awfully wrong... which in turn earns it a like.

edit: BTW my D is named "Hung Lo Wang"

5.5 Tons to be exact. I make sure to use the Mls as much as possible.

This is one of my first mechs bought, so I like to think that I've at least somewhat mastered the torso twisting. Torso twisting is so key to distribute damage and stay alive longer. I would've lived that round if it wasn't caustic and I didn't overheat at all (happened about 4 times lol) But, due to successful torso twisting when being fired at, I died whilst killing a shadowhawk with my own armor being at 18% and all of my weapons still intact for the final volley.

Centys soak damage well, spee is worth a lot more than the Zombie myth

[Diablobo]

Until the OP posts at least two more screens with damages over 1K, it is an anomaly. Any build can have a good match, but to do it consistently is the key.

So you had a good match. Yay. Do it repeatedly and then you might be good. Until then, you had a good drop, nothing else. Everyone gets them.
