[Hit the Deck]

There's that Atlas MRM60+UAC/20 build but what else do you have? Post if you have some!

I just cobbled this together in smurphy: 2MRM30+4ERML XL325 WHM-7S, don't know how well/bad it will work.

Doh, I meant to post this in General Discussion and I can't delete this.

Oh well, I guess here is also fine

[TripleEhBeef]

That's a nice mech you have there.

It would be a shame if something...

destroyed it.

Had good success with catapults

Also trying A1 with 6x MRM 10 and full JJ for mid-range poptarting.

whats the drawback of MRM compared to SRM?
Seem to be just same but more range maybe a little more heat, what am i missing?

Iv put them on my thunderbolt and orion so faar, feels good.

Basically comes down to SRMs you can fire and forget, then turn away to spread returning damage. MRMs you have to keep aimed at the target through the full launch.

MRMs trade off a little extra heat and a little less damage per ton for the extra range. The way they fire in a 'stream' also makes it a bit harder to land all the missiles on your target.

I've found about half my mechs with SRMs are improved with MRMs. Still running SRMs on my faster, smaller mechs though.

Keep them builds coming guys! I think Heavy 'Mechs is a good platform for the weapon since you can carry a lot of missiles while still able to run fast enough.

Stream fire as has been said. They also have a universal spread value and are just a bit tighter than bare SRM6.

Major advantage over SRMs is that you can do much more damage in a single volley.

Marauder-5D with MRM's. Shave off 0,5-1 ton of armor if you want more ammo.

[Rooster68W]

I use my founders catapult it has 2X MRM 40s 4X M Lasers 2 jumpjets and the rest is ammo, heat sinks, and engine.

[Karl the Plumber]

A classic hunchie build. I've always hated the 4SP, but some people swear by it.

[Briareus Hekatonkheir]

what about this one?

[yuujiroassistant]

use this instead: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...e5d88400aab00bd

It takes advantage of all your missle hardpoints, has lower cooldown, lower spread, and a higher alpha (with fire groups divided between left and right side). Its also more heat efficient and won't run out of ammo if you select the ammo nodes. It is simpler to operate and requires less weapons tree investment.
