My highest performing 'mech types are the ones I was using in tier 5. None of my more recent 'mechs have a KDR above 2.00, but my very first Jenner F sits at 2.88.

Of the 'mechs I've used against non-potatoes, the Hellbringer is my best at 1.73

Im curious about your boomhammers. How are you running them? Ac20s or shotguns or ultras?

Once, a K2 legit owned my face. Three vollies and i was down.

LB-40X. I like how heat efficient they are - You can fire forever except for on the hottest of maps.

Your "best" mech really though should be 300+ games, for consistency sake.
Anything under 100 us subjective to RNG.

If we are talking in terms of only KDR, and with more than a dozen matches played, then:

1. Dakka MCII-B. (SQ only)

2. Sniper Supernova-C. (FP only)

3. Dual Gauss Warhammer-6R. (FP only)

4. Dakka KDK-3. (SQ only)

5. Gaussvomit Deathstrike (SQ only)

I'm surprised MCII-B outranks Gaussvomit

Filtering out anything with less than 100 matches:

By KDR
1. MLX-ED (3.04) - 3x Heavy Medium Lasers, 6x Machine Guns (+15% RoF quirk and 2.5 t ammo), Jump Jets
2. BJ-1X (2.86) - 8x ER Medium Lasers (historically, just always been some form of MedLas spam)
3. LCT-1E (2.74) - 6x Medium Lasers (this is mostly historical data; my LCT-1E(C) is a newer purchase and has a KDR of 3.68 with 75 matches)

By WLR:
1. MAD-5D (1.74) - 1x Snub-Nose PPC, 4x Medium Laser, 2x SRM6+Artemis (3 t ammo), Jump Jets
2. SHC-PRIME (1.67) - 2x cER PPC, ECM, JJs (I did not expect this one)
3. MLX-ED (1.63) - I don't need to repeat this one LuL

Out of the stuff on either list, the BJ-1X has the most matches at 648, then it's the LCT-1E at 552, MAD-5D at 439, SHC-PRIME at 201, and MLX-ED at 180.

Trend seems to be I like peek-tarting with JJs, I like high agility, and I operate the most between 300 and 500 meters.

Also lots of lasers.

Racks up the damage faster and easier.

Mine, apparently, is my IS Rifleman LBX-2 boat.
The speed it kills things and the damage it generates to boot far outclasses past AC/2 and UAC/2 boat attempts, without spread reducing nodes, and with full damage out to 939 meters with my skill tree such as it is.

In a short time it is already overshadowing the LRM Battlemaster, the Eternally Cold Dragon and Trebuchet builds, the Meta Killer Heavy Metal (Highlander hero) and the semi-meta (at its conception) Misery which in its hayday long before quirks, armoring skills, etc, could take on a four PPC Stalker and 4 ER PPC + Gauss Atlas RS in a brawl at 500 meters and less, 2 against me, make the brutal fight last for over 2 minutes of nonstop blow exchanges and damage spread, and come out within an inch of victory with such comments as "Why the **** won't you die!?" and "Holy hell are you tough to kill".

That same Misery that earned this on the first day of achievements

In a three versus one fight of a Firestarter, a Catapult LRM boat and a brawler Banshee... and come out on top having killed all 3 looking like this, making that last kill with just an AC/5 left to my name.

....a mech truly worthy of its name.

....and my 4 LBX-2 Legend Killer Rifleman is starting to steal that mech's crown as my best performer.

[Trenchbird]

Apparently my ERLL Hellbringer and Huntsman Prime(S)/Prime (Same build, paint, and ST for both, so I never really considered them separate mechs even if my stats do.)

One spams ERLL, one seems to work no matter what I put on it (4X SRM6+2XERML+2XMPL first, then 2X LPL+4XERML is current. May've been one or two others that also worked really well but I don't know they were.)

[Xetelian]

6x UAC5
4x UAC10
4x LBX10
2x Gauss + 5x MPL



2x UAC10/5 + 4x ERML



4xSRM6 + 5x ERSML

All in solo queue.


I do better with a brawl or dakka than I do with much else. I'm failing at laser vomit pretty hard but I'm trying.

Mostly because whenever my Deathstrike cores an enemy, my teammates finish him off before my weapon cools down. No such issue with the dakka MCII.

Just looking at k/d stats its Roughneck 3A, Hunchback IIC, and Legend Killer. But these are all mechs that I only use in quick play.

[Ignatius Audene]

Urbie

[chucklesMuch]

For Mechs with 100+ matches

By W/L
1. NCT-A 2.03 (wub cat; dual LPL, 5xmpl)
2. LBK-B 1.96 (Believe this was predominantly splat & small wubs (RIP SPL)
3. HBR-B 1.71 (various builds, currently ERLL)

By K/D
1. NCT-A 3.04 (wub cat)
2. CDA-B 2.26 (Favorite Mech pre ST/engine decoupling/mobility nerfs - pretty much unused since)
3. LBK-B 2.14

It seems that I play a lot of Mechs for 35 to 40 matches and then move on to something else!

[panzer1b]

In terms of general reliability i have to say hellbringer. Mostly running pure laser puke builds (my main 2 are 2HLL+4ERML or 6ERML+1HLL, when im screwin around i have one with GRand some lasers as its a bit more challenging but still posesses great lethality).

Close behind that is my marauder (both IS and IIC) and the madcat2. Not quite as consistent or reliable since assaults are situational and sometimes get left behind, but in general i do quite well with those mechs in both damage and team contribution, just cant seem to carry as consistently as in the hellbringer with its combo of ECM and mobility (not to mention high alfa strike).

[Mumuharra]

My Atlas DDC (when he had 2 UAC5, 3 LRM 10, 2 medium lasers and ECM, 393 matches), then my King Crabs, my Dire Wolfs, my Timbies and the winner is .........
My Supernova A (2 x LRM 15 2 x LRM 20, 4 x ERSL an 2.800 missiles or more).
KD 2.0

But I don’t play only to win or for stats.
I do much experiments with weapon etc. and hope to find some interesting games.
No matter if I win or loose (besides if I loose too often in a row).
So the mechs I love most are not always my most successful mechs.

Edited by Mumuharra, 22 January 2018 - 01:37 PM.

[Mumuharra]

Hm, interesting.
I recognised my most successful mech by far is a Summoner.
WL = 4
5 wins 1 loss.
And KD is 2.
Wow.
Maybe I should buy one in the near future.

[LordNothing]

on the is side i do pretty well with mixed builds. clan side its almost always laser vomit.
