They're such junk you can't kill anything with them without half you team raining lrms down on 1 mech.


Just remove targeting without los or something. Half my mechs have lrms quirks and they're useless junk,

Funny I hauled out my AWS-8T, which is only a LRM30 and did fine with it last night.

Dunno what you're talking about.

???? Sorry to hear that you are having issues. To be honest with you, I used them all weekend. (did fairly well.) It's not the lrms. Most of the maps have cover. Dare i say half of the maps have substantial cover to hid from lrms. They are just a high risk weapon. Sorry. I really like them how they are. I just need to be careful how I use them. If you want more kills maybe it is time to change to something with pinpoint damage. Coming from a Davion lover I would have to ask if you have tried ballistics lately.\?

LRMs need a rework. But 0.1 damage hasn't made that much difference.

Ehhhh.... On a weapon that does 1 damage/missile, a change of 0.1 damage is a change of 10%. That's a fairly significant difference in my opinion.

My guess is the 30lrms wasnt the "fine" it was the 4 ppc or 4 xl largers you had it on that was the "fine" part.

Try doing that on kt18 with 2 medium lasers haha

My Awesome 8T is doing well over 600 damage per match so I think LRMs are just fine.

9% is a huge nerf. Sure i think it could use more . I like to see a 25% more grouping on the lrms but at least the 9% would be nice.

I'd say you learn to play instead of using LRM. Come back when you have done that. "LRM atlas dude" Ahahahahaha *disappears in the shadows*

Again you're limited all lrm mechs to assaults so they can still use real weapons. At the same time lots of medium mechs got lrms quirks.

Over all 600 dmg worth of lrms would be maybe 1 kill if you're lucky.

I guess if they keep nerfing Lurms,players will have to switch over to the Weapons that actually require Skill to use

I play so much i get bored of using the same good mechs thats why i would like to use my lrms mechs sometimes.

I wouldn't mind if they brought the damage up to 1.5 or even more, but the cooldown needs to be 3 times what it is. Doing those two thing together would stop the spam and actually give a reason to bring a single LRM15 or even maybe just 1 LRM5. Right now to make LRMs even viable they have to be boated. LRMs should be a rarely fired high damage/armor stripping weapon. If you are out and get hit by 1 volley you should feel it, but getting slammed by low damage, non stop, raining spam is not fun for anyone.

[Chemie]

fixed lock on bug (which probably increases number of viable volleys by 2x)
Increase BAP counter to ECM

I think they got buffed enough

Lrms take a lot more skill then an er laser camper with zoom module.

Lrm pilot has to to get out front find locks HOLD the locks taking fire the whole time. Everyone else pops out fires and jumps back.

Hold your cursor of a mech for 1/10 of a second pressing a mouse button isnt "skill"

You are doing it wrong.

Any LRM boat that's in the front lines is a really stupid LRM boat.
