Jarls is the first way.

Second way is to go into your profile > leaderboards

And to add to the above, Jarls is updated from the Leaderboards at the beginning of each month, since PGI allows a API to be setup for it. On Jarls, you can also compare players, and not just all of the seasons the data has been available to the public, but it can also be reduce to fewer months/seasons on the comparison, but it will not include the current month.

He has nearly 5,000 games. He is not a "new" player. He is just kicking puppies after finally discovering people in his tier don't understand ECM gauss.

I do better with mid-range than with sniper builds. Everyone does as well. Snipers aren't anything special in the current meta.

Dont tell anyone here that...

They've been harping on snipers *existing* since the cauldron took over and changed up the Lowreybalance so you could run things other than medium pulse lasers.

The Gauss ERLL NTG is good, so why are you still in T4, OP?

I'm pretty sure that badge was T3 ~10 hours ago, so looks like he got slapped back to T4.

Yet your this months stats show that you are playing worst since July '22.
Your heavy mech stats show that you are doing even worse...

you're at T4 playing with a Gauss ERLL ECM sniper against likely kitchen sink and bracket builds and LRMs, you're effectively kicking puppies, are you expecting applause

the quad BLC stalker was obscene and deserved the nerfbat
Did someone steal your birthday? Be nice.NTG 2LL 2xgauss is a great build, I'm always surprised by my damage numbers in that thing..Throw on HAGs instead of gauss and it gets even better.

Dude is acting like it's godmode: the mech. I do vastly better in the Shawk, the Thud, two of the Warhammers and the Commando than I do in the NTG (all brawl/mid). I think his tier wobble kind of laid to rest that the thing is not OP except against players that don't understand ECM and have trouble with punishing someone who thinks 1000m and ECM makes them invincible.

I was actually posting higher numbers with the 6UAC2 NTG.

You are T5, I guarantee you aren't seeing the worst of it. Knowing your loadout prefs you're effectively trying to drive nails with a socket wrench.

Nova's an experienced pilot, he knows of what he speaks. Folks who drop in groups regularly see a lot different play than their tier might otherwise suggest.
