How are you fitting all that in the mcii? If it's not too much to ask, can you smurfy it for me?

I do have to say though, if 80 alpha is what some players are looking for, it can be done with 2 hll and 2 ermls with better heat and range synergy. Obviously with the proposed nerf, that wouldn't be possible.


Here is the meta Deathstrike he's talking about:

I prefer it over the 6xCERML build because at 750m+, I can still go 2xGauss+2xCERLL. The only upside to the 6xCERML build is it handles getting pushed into better. I also run the 2xHLL 2xERML 2xGauss on the Mad Cat Mk-II-1, but the cycle time on the lasers takes forever compared to the Deathstrike, and it doesn't actually run any cooler.

It didn't get hammered though. That's the whole point of this thread.

Yes, but it didn't happen, and at this rate is unlikely to happen. I imagine they will likely lower damage on the cERMLs and cHLL, but until such a point as PGI tells us what they are going to do, literally nothing has changed.

Clan Laser and Gauss Vomit definitely need some downward tweaking. I don't think most people will deny that. But as of this very moment, neither has seen any changes whatsoever.

PGI did tell us what they were going to do, and we all saw what happened, and then they caved.

Yes, because neutering Clan Lasers (they would have had less damage than IS laser boats, with longer burn times and CDs and only better range to show for it) is the wrong way to go about it. Not that you care, because you've been throwing a hissy fit for the last forty-eight hours.

I love it when people use facts , makes it so special. Facts are a funny thing , if you don't use them all then they are not facts.
