Seriously this is not a Archer leader board.
It's is short range srm brawl bust.
If it ain't packing 20's it ain't no Archer.
Of all the insulting condescending moves.
Oh and if you ever release the Longbow please call it the Shortbow.
Cause ain't nothing gonna be long about it.
I'm gonna stay away from fresh bodies of water, because if I fall in it's gonna get salty - see.
Battlemech my rear exhaust port more like Battlemehs.
Yeah Novakaine one salty panda bout now.
Well at least I'll never run out o salt for my baked potatoes.

Everyone else will be piloting an Archer?

That's event enough for me!

Oh. That's right.

Not sure about that. I've moved over to LRM's on all but my tempest (LRM5's tho because I'm not going to fight the game any more than I have to ) and can easily put up the 2-3 solo kills and 1k damage that I think lock you a place on the leaderboard.

Heck, it might be lower than that given how many people gave up on the Archer.

Good luck using pure SRMs in an Archer event. Most likely such mechs will get lurmed to death before getting into 270 range, unless it is in group queue.

And of course, the Archer Leaderboard happened as usual. No conspiracy here folks, move along. March 17th-24th were always occupied with Lucky Charms event.

To be fair: would it be better that they do the event *before* they fixed the quirks?

[Alardus]

Using the term fixed loosely.

Just Noting, they did the Warhammer, Origins and Rifleman Leaderboards the weekend after the release. Even though Origins Coincided with a Holiday Event.

Magically, the Archer get's released, after much Forum and Twitter blasting about the lackluster release and craptastic quirks (despite obvious design flaws, hitbox wise), and suddenly, no Event. Then the Structure Fixes they were told pre release the Archer needed are added, and Event is on.

It IS better. But it's also indicative that they heard and knew the ARC was going to have issues, and didn't want the proof with substandard leader boards.

Mmmhmm. Odd that the Xmas event didn't stop the Origins from happening.
