I've been churning out a "How to kill 'Mechs efficiently" series on my blog, focusing on knowing your opponents and taking them out as quickly as possible. After almost a month, the guide is finished and after some consideration it's now called "'Mech Weak Spots Guide". Today after publishing the last piece, I combined everything into one big article/PDF download with some corrections.

From it's description:

Quote

In this guide, I will talk about the art of killing your opponents and the weak spots of your opponents. While doing so, I’ll give you as much relevant info as possible about the ‘Mech as possible such as their threat levels, expected builds, its advantages and problems.


You can get the PDF version here (highly recommended, latest version) or view it on my blog.

I hope you find this useful, it was a lot of blood, sweat and tears writing it.

Thanks for the work on the guide. It seems really well done. An excellent source for new (and old) players.

Yes, but I'm pretty sure that sentence was intended to convey its relative fragility compared to other mechs of equal weight, by comparing it to 60t instead of 70t mechs.

Solid guide, was nice to get a refresher coming back from a 2ish year hiatus from the game.

Your guide doesn't list the Urbanmech.





Because the Urbanmech has no weak spots!
