Mauler...thats new balistic meta for IS, you can cramp in almost any cannon combo you want,
nice stable platform with enough tonnage for nice support weapons, while Crab can twist better
its ballistic slots are far too low and far apart.


Yep, Crab is really scarry looking but its shots never seem to hurt as much as shots coming from, say, a Jager.

You know, Jagers are still pretty good ballistics mechs. Not as good as they were a year ago when this game happened, but still fun. :)

Catapult k2 doesn't come close to being a ballistic mech. The ballistic hard points are fun to play around with and I've got dual gauss, and LBX10 to work a few times. After using a jagermech though I wouldn't put anything bigger than machineguns on it. Arm mounted ballistics are much more accurate than torso mounted with the k2 I was just putting the torso reticle on stuff and hoping it'd hit anything, with the arm mounted ones I can sort of aim at a specific area like a side torso or leg or arm.


Yeah, no.

Jager is one of the easiest mechs in the game to XL pop and hardpoint location has nothing to do with accuracy whatsoever.

K2 with 2xAC10s and 4x MDlas and an xl300 is FANTASTIC.

I try to avoid suggesting cash mechs. This K2 loadout is going directly into my Black Widow come January

Big fan of Fang01's K2 loadout.
