I'm seriously. I'm driving a K2 with 416 armor! 3 shots from medium or large lasers and I'm dead? WTF?! They should fix that! I mean it don't happens everytime i play, but sometimes i only get 2 or 3 shots from medium or large laser and i'm dead LOL! It's annoying :/ and i think it's a bug or something :/

[UraniumOverdose]

The crit bug is real, but they claim it is a "slow paper doll update." What a bunch of horse crap.

[Noth]

It could also be cockpit hits as your cockpit has a lot less armor and is rather easy to hit on a catapult.

[Sp4wNers]

No cockpit. I got killed by three or two shoots to my torso :| Not always but most of the time, it's really annoying man...

Considering cockpits have 15 internals and 18 armor, they're quite a bit more durable than they seem. It's very difficult to damage them effectively with lasers and they can still soak two gauss shots without popping.

you're probably getting hit by a hell of a lot more lasers than it looks like - two of my Awesomes fit two LLs in their arm and it comes out as one beam. Or you're full of it, which is what I'm leaning towards. That 'crit bug' bogeyman doesn't exist either so just drop it, you just took more damage than you thought you did.

[Clay Pigeon]

They patched the crit bug out on the 8th.

[Goit]

I've killed a cat with as little 33 damage with 4 medium lasers to the cockpit. Lighter mechs would be less

You may have exploding ammo. Noticed a similar thing happening on my Raven, which had a ton of ammo. Try putting your ammo somewhere safer and using CASE.

NO! When i'm fighting 1vs1 with light mech, for example jenner and he kills me with 3 shots to my torso so somethings wrong right? It's a damn annoying bug i said! :/

EDIT: My Machine gun ammo is in my cockpit :>

Yea, that's a pretty bad idea. A lucky/well-placed shot could remove your head armor really easy, then everytime a laser sweeps across your head there's a chance of that ammo exploding and instantly killing you.

[Wispsy]

I got 1shotted from full armour 3 games in a row last night on my Jenner.

Would not have been quite so bad if at least it had been the enemy team. :/

[Virtusx]

Do not discount that at times you may get him from more than one person so it could look like only a few lasers but be more. Also what Mu said, it could be 4 LL and not two, that would take you out in a few shots.

Just want to point out that the guy driving a K2 which can fit dual gauss is complaining about damage to quickly. Now this is nothing against you OP and I am not accusing of running dual GR but it made me smile.

Edit: Ah, it is you Sp4wNers, sorry no offense meant. Your K2 has a...certain reputation.

SL does 3 damage.
Jenner can mount 6.
6*3=18.
18*2=36.
Therefore, if the jenner lands all of the damage, he can actually 2 shot your cockpit.

My jenner runs with 6 ML, and it looks like two beams. With good aim, I can easily kill a cat with one good alpha and then sweeping blows

especially since OP said he has ammo in his cockpit, once that outer armor is removed sweeping blows would finish him off quick.

FYI, I run jenners now all the time (trying to get elite skills now) and I aim for cockpit of cats.

I didn't mean my cockpit! Only torso! If i'm getting shooted at torso three times and i'm dead so something is wrong.... Also...

Additional ammo can really explode in this game? o.O

Yes, ammo can explode and it can and will kill you if it is not stored in a safe location.

[Sp4wNers]

LOL... Didn't know that... even machine gun ammo? So where i should put it? Leg or maybe Left Torso/Right?

So to let you know. Autocannon ammo CAN explode, as well as LRM, SRM and MG ammo. Gauss rifle ammo CANNOT explode but the Gauss Rifle itself CAN and will even more soon according to this http://mwomercs.com/...apon-balancing/

Edit: So ammo, where to put it? I would put in LT/RT if possible. They are hard to hit on a cat. I put heatsinks in legs most of the time since if I am in water there is a bonus for heat dissipation, double if remember right.

Sorry, last edit. MG's are crap right now, better to take them off and put more heat sinks to fire weapons that do real damage.
