Take an TAG, Take 4 LRM10s (Firerate 3,0sec) and start chainfire hrhrhr.always nice to see all running for cover while your team advance.

Concerning LRMs not beeing "all that powerfull" in books and TT.
Was Ulric Kerensky not killed in an ambush using multiple LRM boats using TAG?

LRM are ok right now, if you die from them: USE COVER! ECM IS NOT COVER! USE AMS! WITH AMMO!

The only thing slightly op is 750m TAG range, 450m was about right imho, but maybe all changes with new modules.

Also, OP drives an ER-PPC Awesome, 'nough said. (says so in annother post)

Completely agree with you first point however have to disagree with the second point. TAG is only barely functional witht he 750 range, as it currently consists of the only barely passable counter to ECM available that isn't ECM itself. With ECM functioning as it does The 750m TAG is a weaksauce counter but one you can make good use of with some practice.

If ECM is going to stick around in its gawdawful form, I would like to see the decay on TAG greatly decreased. And NARC massively buffed.

well yeah, IF ECM is gonna stay in it's current form NARC should broadcast through it without LOS.

I love the mech pilots who think they are completely immune to LRMs because of ECM. From that first gentle touch with my acquisition gear to the full impact of my crushing cascade. I really do have much love for them, it is mesmerizing to see my love fly to them, embrace and engulf them in fiery fireworks of passion.

Especially lights, when they try to evade my love messages with their speed, but then instead of running into cover, they rather turn their beautiful back side to my dozens of amorous touches, reaching out for them, bundling together for an ecstatic finale.

What did I just read?

No one wants light mechs blown up in one volley from some clown in a stalker throwing up 70 missiles per trigger pull. .....

I do.

You're right. Even with AMS going full bore it still hurts my poor Atlas and I'm forced to scramble for cover.

Nahh stay there, I'll park my Stalker next to you and the HBK's can help. 6+ AMS's all going full bore will pretty much stop an LRM boat dead in its tracks; until the ammo runs out.

[Homeless Bill]

The whine about LRMs never ceases to amaze me. I pilot assaults almost exclusively, and I only die to LRM fire perhaps one out of every 30-50 deaths. Stop standing out in the open. Jesus.

[bonapartist1]

LRMs are def overpowered.

SSRMs however are a complete catastrophe of overpowered madness. WHY is the weapon which requires the least skill to operate also one of the absolutely most devastating? WTF ARE YOU THINKING PIRANHA

[Kanaric]

For the OP: Stop whining.

[Yokaiko]

LRMs boaters are the easiest things to counter.

Every map has spots where they HAVE to close to target you and the best spotter can't tank 7 mechs blasting away at him.

Use cover.

You mean I can use cover and advance safely to a range where LRMs cannot damage me? Thank the gods!

No I mean park and bait them till they run out of ammo or come over to you.

You mean I can use different tactics depending on the situation? My mind is blown!
