[Squirg]

Finally achieved this milestone tonight, feeling very happy so I decided to share. The Catapult K2 has been my favorite mech since TT. It was the first mech I bought back in open beta and I've racked up a considerable amount of time in the cockpit of mine. So, here's some highlights of the stream I did while getting near the goal.





Admittedly, I have to use my current stats + archived stats + my alt account to get the number.




2769 + 255 + 80 = 3014!

On another note, my unit [NOAT] is recruiting! We are Not On A Team, originally supposed to be a Solaris stable unit, that plan kind of fell through. We primarily play group queue with some dips into competitive play. Our unit focuses on working hard to improve yourself with your team mates to help out as needed. NOAT is still a tiny unit where everyone knows eachother and are likeminded enough to get along. If you think you'd be interested in joining the team, drop by our Discord at https://discord.gg/fwDk7RA .

Next up... Jester?

I literally logged in specifically to congratulate you on your achievement.

CONGRATULATIONS! Well done, sir!

Here's to 3000 more!

Congrats, but why the catapult when the war hammer can mount dual ac10s and 6 medium lasers with light fushion engine and 4 tons of ammo?

Because doing it on a K2 or a lesser mech is more satisfying.

Because the WHMs were not in beta.

Well done!

Always great to see a mech of the old guard ripping it up amongst so much shiny meta. Almost makes me want to dust off my Awesome.

Congrats though- not much of a K2 in terms of weaponry

It's better to be effective with the weapons you have than be less effective with more weapons. Congrats on the kills op. K2 is a good mech for sure. ac10s 4mls is a solid build for it too. One I use often as well. Did you go 55 fire power for the weapons? My K2 is full mobility and survival with a few to mech ops. None in fire power on my K2.

Wait, wait...
You're Not On A Team
But...
You're recruiting me to be on... your team?

I'm so confused......

[BrunoSSace]

Just had a look, in total I have done nearly 4000 kills. Whith the most kills being on my Blackjack 1. Who has 200 kills atm. I have no idea how long it would take me to pull that off. So sir I bow to you and give you a +1, since that is an amazingly achievement. I ether need to play more or sleep less. Bruno o/

I mean the OP said he's a fan of K2 since tabletop, but his build in MWO is nothing like the default K2 which is 2 PPCs, 2 MGs. So if you radically change the weaponry, is it still a K2? More like he enjoys his build on the K2 chassis-

The build is a good one. It works well on the k2 as well. Ppcs have a lot of problems and the k2's pathetic ppc quirk of 20% can be done with a panther mech or better as two panthers have 40% velocity quirk. While you can still run ppcs on the K2 I find most people do a ballistic build or laser build more than ppcs on the K2.

Since I have the bain of old video card and bad aim I hardly use any type of ppc and go lasers or acs. Also the stock build of K2 does have 2 med las on it so it has some thing for mechs inside that 90m limit of ppc and more range than the mgs.

Ah so it does. Haven't used the K2 much in tabletop, and in MWO I stripped it almost immediately for HGR + 3 ML. Have enough dual PPC mechs already (Marauders, etc)
