Then your option is very clear and simple: don't play the game.

Okay, i'll try to help. Instead of just posting an uber sarcastic comment.

Step 1: Breathe and relax. It's not as bad as you make it seem.

Step 2: Build a LRM boat and take it for a spin. Laugh when you see how pathetically underwhelming these POSs are.

Step 3: Go back to your good builds. Equip AMS. If you're able, also save up for the Radar Deprivation module.

Step 4: When in-game, simply walk out of the enemy's line of sight - their target lock on you will disappear. MAGIC!

Step 5: If you can't walk out of their sights very well, at least get behind/under cover. It exists on every map.

Step 6: Coordinate with your team to rush/flank/isolate the enemy team (or at least their LRM stragglers)

Step 7: Profit - or at least stop dying (like a noob) to LRM fire.

3. coordination in teams ... whats coordination .... its every man for him self (its jsut the multiplayer mentality)

That's not a bad build. For a beginner.

Go play more. Learn how to use it properly. Don't post single game shots. Give us your win/loss rate. I'm not interested in your KDR either.

Start winning consistently with that first, then come back to revisit this thread.

In newbie Elo maybe.

And damage is a poor indicator of performance. The vast majority of LRM damage is wasted, and your only "averaging" 780 damage with LRM's against pathetically bad players.

so clan 228 is filled with newbs ... didnt know that

Wasted tonnage, with the Artemis IV. No ability to self defend.

Like I said in my first post, rush such a build and it is dead meat. Just don't do it over open plains and 800 meters out.

You are as bad as a LRM pilot as you are against them. If you declare you are doing well with that build in almost any game, I'd say you are indeed somewhere in the lower ELO spectrum with your assault mechs.

If everyone who complains about LRM would mount one, there would be plenty of them on the battlefield. But for some reason those who complain refuse to use actually working defense systems.

My apologies, I should have been more specific. I meant for the specific LRM Boats you are using, and over time. Get 50 games in on that mech first, as the initial few games are generally not a good indication.

Yes, one AMS is useless against multiple launchers.

This is how it should be. Do you expect immunity from a half ton equipment with another half ton of ammo? You are shot at with at least 7.5 tons of equipment and ammo (2 clan LRM-15 and a half ton of ammo). Of course there should be some damage coming through. The opponent used at least 7 times the tonnage you invested in your defense to attack you.

But as soon as you have multiples on your team, even as few as two, those 30 LRMs are at best tickling you. When you have three or more they are something you can completly ignore.

lol

Wow, so you're ignorant (read: dead wrong) AND arrogant about it. Nice mix.

A single AMS is only ineffective if you're a flat out idiot who refuses to get out of the open and just sits there taking missile fire. If you get the missile lock warning and begin hoofing it for cover or to get out of the enemy's LOS, that single AMS does a great job knocking out most of the 1 or 2 flights of missiles that'd come your way.

You're obviously very new to the game, and as such each cbill is precious. I get that, we've all been there. Believe me though when you improve and you're bringing in 3,000,000 - 4,000,000 cbills per hour... Radar Deps won't be a waste in your eyes, they'll be an integral part of the reason you're able to live long enough and win well enough to be able to earn the big cbills in the first place.

First off, we're not a "clan". Secondly, we're not using LRMs (broad generalisation, some members might use em from time to time in pug drops, but LRMs are generally frowned upon because of how bad and situational they are.)

It diminishes the damage dealt by a single salvo.

wasnt it out for idk 2 years... 2 year and it only manages to have 5000 players at peak hours ... this game is just a perfect example of become a whale or gtfo
