Looking at the score board on the first match, I see something I've seen before but will never understand: A Zeus does no damage, but gets 4 assists and 45 match score. How does that happen? Also, I love the clips from Emperor's New Groove and Muppets.

I love brawling with this mech as well. You can run 3 Snubs + an LBx10 (LBx10 on inner sphere saves 1 ton and takes 1 less slot). XL is a must as well, you need to be fast if you're brawling. You can fire all at once at optimal range, but sometimes I fire snubs first if I see they still have armor left, then try to crit fish with the LBx10.

**Misses 60% of his 30 damage shots** This right here is why I am not a fan of PPCs. Autocannons? Sure gimee. PPCs? Hard pass. Fire too slow, with too much heat. I will happily miss a few AC shots, because each individual shot means little, as even an AC10 will fire again in about a second, plus they generate almost no heat, which means I dont need no pesky heatsinks to take up space better suited to endo-steel which allows me to carry more ammo which I will never use (usually because of death by ammo explosion!~) I just do not understand everyone's fascination with PPCs. Just not enough damage per ton with having such a slow fire rate. I havent looked at my actual weapon stats in a hot minute. But a 40% PPFLD hit rate would be what I'd expect. Lasers tho... I'd expect 70% or higher, which means they will do more damage overall with much less weight.
@TomsGamingLair3 күн бұрын
But if you hit with ppfld all of that damage goes into single component. With lasers you need to have incredibly steady hand to hit the same area. So 40% chance of hitting single components or 70% of hitting 3. Besides, for me it's around 70% with lasers vs 60% with various ppfld setups. Shows you how horrible aim i have.
