Come on, you have the entire month to earn that Mad Cat. Posted Image


Well...

checks his progress in top 3 most difficult tasks:
  • Earn 25 Components Destroyed 1 / 25
  • Earn 50 Kills or KMDD Rewards 3 / 50
  • Earn 10 Victories 1 / 10
Not bad, gonna say.

Can't you switch to a different Internet Service Provider?


I could... but it's complicated.

ATM I'm using my family's LTE-based connection (LOL, IKR due to... reluctance of the normal cable-based internet providers to connect our home), yet also I have my own connection (same), but I'm underway to change ISP due to fact that 100 GB package is too small for my needs. Should work during this month, though.

If I could suggest something, use LBX-10 Autocannons - preferably a pair of those (or more, of course). Combination of LBX-10 and SRMs also works. Some people prefer SRMs, of course.

OmniMech pet peeve:
Must I use Timber Wolf TBR-C to equip AMS, without losing the Set-of-8 quirks?

==>Please allow for Set-of-7 bonus, so that we can swap one (1) torso out to equip AMS without losing the TBR-Prime(I) mech quirks!

(I'll buy the Clan Wave I package if Set-of-7 bonus is implemented!)

Nice event , thanks Daeron !
Can i have a request or maybe i can say recommendation in the next patch?
Its about AMS hardpoints on omnipods.
Cant you give more AMS on different omnipods on a mech cuz i like to have minimum 1 AMS on my mechs but sometimes annoy me that i must take missiles omnipod for my dakka or laserbuild when i want that lone AMS hardpoint. Especialy annoying on Timberwolf and on Ebon Jaguar.
Almost all claner mech have unused head omnipods, cant you put there AMS hardpoint?
Or add AMS hardpoints to left and rightside omnipods too please.
Have a nice day !

Using the time when Auth server got... Err 63, I've took the time to restart the router to try rerouting my connection to MwO servers.

Here is the result.

I have to say, I'm more excited about the colors than the mech, but the mech might be a lot of fun as well.

Put in some work with tier 4 quickplay matches this weekend, maybe about 10 hours (not including mechlab shenanigans), only item left to complete is the ballistics damage challenge.

I got the mech this weekend and swapped out the ER Large lasers for large pulse lasers and had a ton of fun running around. Sadly, it took me a few matches before I remembered I had jump jets. I think the best part of the challenge is the new pattern & colors.

Any idea when the 4/20 patch notes notification will make way for the Leader of the Pack Challenge? Kinda sucks that the in-game notes haven't shown this yet but it's been going for a week.

Good event, cheers! The UAV took me longest to get, those little suckers are invisible on most sky backgrounds. I ended up just using Beagle Probe equipped mechs until I detected one in the end.

Maybe the server wasn't actually down and the problem was your end?

Perhaps you could write to support and ask them to extend the event from 30 days to 30.25 days to make sure you have enough time? Can only ask right.

Put simply, I (and having seen other posts, some others out there) personally appreciate your choice of the Timber Wolf TBR-C(C) Mech as a prize.

I do appreciate the Timberwolf too. I've started playing again this year, last time I played in 2013 in beta. It was fun to complete the challenge and get my favorite mech, thanks!

Use thermal vision. It helps a lot with the detection of UAV.

Awww thats nice.
Will be my 3rd timby.
They are the signature mechs of the Clan Invasion but due to MWOs lack of moveable Arms (#lowhanginghardpoints) and the way the highmounted laser pods where implemented (big hitboxes get shoot of) the poor thing is pretty mediocre or even sub par when compared to other mechs of its weight class (a hint...quirks will not change that)
But its a nice to have mech that can be painted beautyfully and be taken out for a right now and then for fun and giggles

So far so good about progress. Still, the prevalence of AMS is effectively preventing me to score the damned missile damage...

That's why PGI plz add Mech Mortars (along with LAC and Rifles, especially for IS Lights). Posted Image
