My usually build is atlas with AC20, 2 SRM6 and 2 Mlas. So my optimal range is below 270m. Yet I always manage to get into the brawl usually with minimal damage.

imo their default accuracy needs to be lower/more spread out (when i'm running 130kph i expect most to land behind me, instead of magically adjusting at the last milisecond), but when the target is painted the accuracy needs to be super high. make LRMs weak without any painting mechanics, strong when painting is used. atleast this way some work/teamwork is required for effective use
getting sick of just anyone picking up LRMs and playing connect the dots... its bad for the game in general to leave LRMs so dang dominant for too long. way too many games where you either turtle for 12 minutes behind rocks/buildings or die instantly from LRM fire.

All 1001 of your posts are about going into every thread and disagreeing with every single complaint. Even when they are completely legitimate.
Watch out, it's a troll and he's recruiting with his god awful Clan signature.
Join the ketchup and mustard squadron lol...
Oh god, and he's a roleplayer too...
oh one more, why is it called Gun Special Squadron if all you guys use is LRM lol.

I'm no troll, I'm tired of people complaining about the weapon of the week. If there is a problem you think needs fixed go fill out a support ticket like I do.
I'll agree my signature is pretty ****** but its the best I could do with what I had at the time and its more than I have now.
Also why does enjoying the occasional role play matter at all?
The only troll I'm seeing here is the one trying to make fun of people on a web forum.
Btw of my 1002 posts most are memes, shooting the breeze, and offering advice to other players. The ones where I roll my eyes at the whiners who think they are entitled to everything they ever wanted in an FPS are a small portion of my stuff.

Use cover.
Dont stand in open.
EQUIP AMS... WITH AMMO.
Stay near other mechs with AMS (Yes, a while ago a patch did change AMS so that 2 AMS shoots down twice the missles as a single).
DONT GET TAG'd OR NARC'd.
IF TAG'd or NARC'd - run for high cover.
Rush LRM boats to within 150m (or is it 120m??) so their LRMs are ineffective.
Put armour on your mech.
Spread the damage over your mech. For example if your core is weak, TURN so all the missles DONT hit your core and kill you. Also DONT turn your back on missles, your armour is weak on the back.
If other team is spamming LRM... JUKE UNTILL THEY RUN OUT OF AMMO.
Finally...
THINK - USE YOUR BRAIN
Follow these easy tips and LRMs will no longer be an issue.

So you're tired of people complaining on a forum? man, maybe you wouldn't be if you didn't have 1002 posts now from constantly being on the forums all the time and getting sick of people's concerns with the game.
Just an observation ya know. If you're tired of complaints, it doesn't mean they are not legitimate. I'm not saying everyone should just go on the forum and ***** and whine about every feature, but you wanna hear what I hate? when people disagree without facts.
If you ain't got nothing to add to the conversation, just don't say anything at all. If you're going to disagree, provide facts, numbers, something. Not just "adapt". That's trolling.

What isn't constructive is claiming things are OP because they inconvenience you.

Follow these easy tips and LRMs will no longer be an issue.
Here's some tips for you since you clearly don't know.
Roughly 90% of cover doesn't work in this game.
Only really tall structures or walls do the trick.
AMS shoot through walls and waste ammo.
LRM will often go through geometry completely.
Telling people to not get TAG'ed or NARC'ed is the dumbest thing you could mention for a tip. That's like telling people to not get shot in this game.
Don't get shot or you gonna have a bad time! pro tip!
Here's my pro tips for you:
LRMs only miss if they lose lock or if they hit high cover. You can't dodge LRMs if there is a spotter constantly on you. But you wouldn't know, you've never been in a brawl.

I'm okay with them not taking skill, but not with how much damage they seem to do. Something needs to change, either make them do less damage, miss more, or make them harder to use.

They're not an inconvenience, they have changed the game. The game is an artillery fest and few will agree to it because they enjoy being up on a cliff completely motionless and pressing a button over and over. When matchmaking puts 6 LRMs and 2 spotters up against a balanced team, that's when you realize the game has issues. Who do you blame then, premades, matchmaking, LRMs? take your pick.

Just fyi "miss more" and "do less damage" are synonymous. One is a subset of the other. That's what you should be saying if they do too much damage. In my opinion they don't, but that's at least a valid balance solution if the problem actually exists unlike really dumb stuff such as make 2 people require lock or give all mechs 50 AMS so they shoot down every missile in existence, ever and so on.

Being out in the open is an extremely large part of this game. Are you then saying everyone should be taking cover and STAY in cover at all times? couple of words come to mind.
I'm not saying we should all go through the damn lake in river city, but technically everywhere else is LRM territory too, few hills ain't gonna stop LRMs that shoot into the sky then dive down on you.
