That's the right way to use LRMs?

[Thunderbird Anthares]

why would you boat LRM on an Atlas?

[Azalie]

No man you need that LRM10 range so you can stay even further back.

[Navid A1]

Love the machine gun XD

Ordellus might have something to say about this.

[Vashramire]

No Flamers?

[El Bandito]

Wubshee is just as expensive. BNC-3M

19,539,544 + 18,000,000 for modules = 37,539,544 C-Bills. Just to wub.

one of the worst atlas builds i've seen. That takes some effort.

[Cyborne Elemental]

Ok, so that can't be the reason after a 15 game loss streak playing mixed lights and heavies, That I switched to this, and have had one loss out of 10 so far..

Takes a little help from teamates sure, although Im perfectly capable on my own, even if I get rushed you're still Narced for a good while, and I focus on ECM priority.
Games like this make it worthwhile, been averaging between 225,000-360,000.

Point I'm trying to make is that "IF YOU ARE GOING TO LRM"
At the very least, try and build so you can actually be useful.

Remove 3 tons of ALRM ammo (- $ 180.360)
Add a command console (+ $1.000.000)
Add an improved UAV (+ $ 40.000)
Add an improved Air Strike (+ $ 40.000)
... &$%& ... ???
Profit!

[Troutmonkey]

You don't need to run NARC and TAG, and you definitely don't need that MG. The only module that's helpful there is Target Decay
Or you could just get a Stalker instead? Boom, already better at LRMs even without modules, and much cheaper to boot

LRM boat success relies more heavily on the team than most other builds. I've had days where I win all day or lose all day, no matter the mech. A good team will allow an LRM mech a chance to seem a lot better than it really is under average circumstances. You are fortunate to have not had to go against a team with competent lights or anyone that would close the distance fast.

More like how to piss off half your team when they realize what a waste of space and tonnage you are...

Loving all the hate guys, keep it coming

This is what you guys aren't understanding.

Its a team support mech, no matter where I am, Im either blinding the enemy, or I'm marking targets that don't disappear instantly from Radar Dep so my team can get a feel of the movement of the enemy.

Narc alone gives my team better odds for first strike in a faceoff.

We can build it. We have the technology!

[jss78]

Needs more TAGs. What are you gonna do when that LA is blown off and this god-tier 100-tonner becomes dead weight? Gotta play it safe man.

[John1352]

Despite being heresy, if one was forced to put LRMs on an atlas, that build would be among the best options.

Interesting how many C-Bills that made you (even with loyalty bonus). I should probably swipe LL at everyone when I need cash from now on.

[MonkeyCheese]

I loled

Then I loled all the way to the bank



Im a horrible person... I dont even own more than this single highlander.
