Thank you for your effort, Ohmwrecker!

I haven't read the whole thread, but in case if nobody else has asked that already: Could you implement the pure tonnage of weapons and / or heatsinks to each mech? It would help a lot in a purchase of a mech with planning different weapon systems.

[Ohmwrecker]

Hey guys, thanks for the corrections and feedback! I'll be looking into how to best fit variant data especially when it comes to engine speeds in my sheets. This is going to start to get a little bit tricky.

No, I'm not referring to lateral arm movement. The Yen-Lo has different base numbers for turning speed and torso twist..

Wouldn't surprise me. I looked over the Yen-Lo-Wang. It comes with a 215 rating engine (when it should be a 200), so who knows what other things they changed.

No pay2win my ***...

[MrBlonde42]

Can you add which models have XL engines And/ or DHS on the Mech variant page? Cicada 3m has both, but I'm not sure about the engine rating. As far as i can tell the Mech bay Tells you what engine, what armor, and which structure a mech has, but nothing says which type of heat sinks .

Hey Ohm, great work. I have one more request. Could you put the mech price (C bills and MC) in the chart? I realize that it is getting to be kind of crowded, but having the price info would really help in planning what builds to run, etc.

Thanks, and I appreciate all the work in making this thing up.

[ExAstris]

Small error: The Cicada 2B has two energy hardpoints in each arm, you accidentally listed it as having two in one arm and two in the head (lol).

Ohm, can you give me the projectile speeds? Krivvan had them, you don't.

Or just tell me the file these come out of I guess.

Color me confused, but if Ohm hasn't listed them and Krivvan has ... wouldn't it make more sense to ask Krivvan where the info is located?

But like I said, I am colored confused right now so perhaps I am wrong.

On a side not, Ohm, you rock! Thanks for all your hard work that I don't have to do myself anymore!

stats, STATS oh glorious STATS thank you!!!

[Trinton]

I open this thread on the daily, thanks Ohm for the hard work.

As a request, could you include stats (weight savings, particularly) for the new upgrades.

[Scop]

Much appreciated, Ohm! I dropped into a match once and saw someone on the opposing team had a similar SN. I was so excited I popped into Global chat to express my thanks for the spreadsheets but got back, "wrong ohm, bro."

Also wanted to add that we got a new module and their GXP costs got tuned with the last patch.

• Advanced Zoom for 5,000 GXP
  
• Target Info Gathering for 10,000 GXP
  
• Capture Accelerator for 15,000 GXP

Important thread deserves a bump.

[Dreaming Demon]

I took the initial weapon values table, and added some more columns, to help me see what weapons are the most 'efficient' theoretically. This is the result:



DPH: Damage per Heat.
DPT: Damage per Ton (for weapons with ammo, this includes enough ammo to fire continuously for one minute)
SDPT: Sustained DPT. This also counts the weight of normal HS needed to sustain the firing indefinitely.
DPC: Damage per Crit
DPA: Damage per ton of ammo
MPT: Minutes of shooting per ton of ammo

The most interesting stat is the SDPT. This is why so many people use LRM right now. At around 0.4 dps per ton (counting heat sinks, ammo, and the weapon) they offer the most sustained damage per second of any weapon. You can just shoot and shoot. Of course, they have drawbacks... but so do other weapons. This SDPT stat is why LRM are so extremely popular right now. And why my Catapult has 6 LRM5 mounted on it.

Not sure if this was said before, but as an additional help, it would be good to include module slots with the mech hardpoints chart, Ohm.

Cheers.

Agreed. The devs consider Module slots important enough to be equivalent to weapon hardpoints for balance purposes. So knowing which ones have an extra slot (or one less slot!) would be very nice.

[EGG]

I don't think anyone's mentioned, but the cost of Anchor Turn is 3500 XP, not 1500.

Thanks for all your work on this though, it would be a rather frustrating game without it.

[BaddKarma]

Yeah I'm on top of things...you updated...thank you.

[Koningswulf]

Great work but it seems some figures are missing or not currect as of last patch. But I would guess it takes a long time to update this. Thanks for the job!
DPS for some of the weapons seem to be miscalculated
the zoom modul
the modul xp cost
for instance.
Also could you have the mechs with extra critical slots mentioned somehow, I cant recall now for your but didnt the dragon for example have 1 extra arm slot?

[Katface]

The raven 3L comes with an xl-210 so its max engine can be a std or xl 295 giving it a max speed of 136.54kph

[Fandior]

Great work, thx this will very helpfull

[Karakut]

Great Work! It's really help. Thanks!
