I am starting to get so tempted getting back into the game and be a LURMER this time around.

I am eagerly waiting for the patch before diving back in.

My funniest lurm moment kinda has two parts. The first is seeing lurmers post screenshots of high damage games as proof that lurms are great weapons. The second is seeing them in the next thread posting that lurms need buffs not nerfs.

To be fair... terribad players will remain terribad regardless of the weapon system or the mech they're in.

There's a story here - I know this guy who used to play MWO. Basically too casual to grasp the basics. The three months he appears on Jarl's, he was ranked in 11%... 3% and 2%.

One day he saw me racking up damage with the AWS-8R and started asking for LRM builds.
After several attempts to dissuade him from the idea, I eventually cave in and give him the build.
So we jump into the group queue, me in a spotter Raven and him in the AWS...
... so we drop onto Forest Colony. I paint targets for him. He's not firing. I NARC targets for him. He's not firing. Since he's not firing, I end up getting shot for my trouble rather quickly.
I spectate him and... what the fuuuuuuu? Not only he's playing with arms locked and parked his mech in a static position (despite explicit instructions to the contrary, since I explained to him how to play the mech before we dropped), he's completely blind to terrain. As I spectate, he looks up at the H7/H8 spire, measures it... and tries to shoot the enemy with his LRMs' flight path completely blocked by the rock.

Driving a mech armed with 3xALRM-15 and 2xML, he finished that match with 15 damage. No, this is not a typo.

This Alpine Peaks in a Hunchback J.
I was on the low road behind Candy Mountain as I like to call it.
Not a single time did the opposing team turn around to see what was killing them.
Finally a Centurion and a Raven was pushed off the hill.
They were the last two and they came down looking for some payback.
They were both smoking wreaks, but I started backing off.
Down goes the Centurion and so to the Raven.
Admittedly the Raven was a laser kill.
"Nova yur not helping the team!!!"
"Oh really ya say - tell me more."
Ah the old days.


Second two guys running twin Kit Foxes threatening to hunt me down in real life.
And do horrible things to me naughty bits after I lurmed them to death

I am amazed how some people are so salty towards Lurm that they allow themselves to be blinded by hatred.

Funniest moment was in the beta were the aws and catapults were the lrm boats.
On the old snow city we both saw us and locked us,
and started lauching without no more movement
and no interrupt from other players, like an highnoon duel,
my pretty spiraling 2xalrm15 c1 was able to kill his 3xlrm15 aws,
but only to get killed a moment later by his last salvo, which were allready on the way.
We both laughted and chatted for the rest of the match in the all-chat.

The wet dream of everý lrm-whiner.
