I ❤️ Atlas! | Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries | Full Campaign Playthrough | Episode #25

[@richardjames9426]

I’ve had more mechs shredded by friendly fire. I’ve found , at the start of the mission, if you order each them to sit in one location, fanned out from each other, they are less likely shoot each other. I just give each one an order to go to a location 300 meters from the next, and they sit and shoot, while I run around the battlefield, wrecking everything. My repair bills have improved dramatically.

[@shawnadams1460]

Yup, you nailed it! I have had more of my arms blown off by my "Allies" then the enemy! Unfortunately, I forget when I hit target my target it releases them from their spots...lol.

[@HobagShizzlemah]

generally moving to long range builds also cuts down on friendly fire and back shots from enemies. Also there already is an open request with PGI to add the option to disable FF as long as they don't fix the AI

There's a mod to do away with that shite. Can't be dealing with stupid friendly fire from bots. They're dumb enough as is without that rubbish. I ain't having them wasting my money willy nilly 😜

As said by others, friendly fire kill on the Whammy. Glad you finally saw that the small lasers were killing that build.

[@ANIMOUS8]

Your Warhammer was blown up by enemy and friendly for. Friendly stalker unloaded a bunch of missiles into his back and took out a lot of inner structure. The Orion finished the job. Something to consider. All your ai mech deaths have been center torso. You've never had a destroyed mech from leg his. So when you drop armor, just drop leg armor, not center torso. Definitely up that back armor. On 4 different occasions I've seen your AI blow the crap out of your own mechs' backs. They can definitely hurt each other as I've seen the damage on friendlies all centered on areas hit from friendly fire.

[@Artificer1911]

It's pretty funny, to me, how often we have the exact opposite opinions of "good mechs." In MW5, I've found Quickdraws and Grasshoppers much more reliable than Thunderbolts and Jaegermechs. But our playstyles are also drastically different. I play a slower ranged game, which helps with my overhead, but wouldn't be particularly entertaining to watch. Also, I have a pretty much set group of mechs per tonnage area, so I can keep more mechs in cold storage and, again, keep my quarterlies low. Always interesting to see another person's playstyle. :D

Hello Baradul. Maybe issue hold fire order to damaged mech you want to save. I was watching TTB and he said, enemy stop shooting that mech. Also Move to designed location order is better for AI pilots.. they move and engage targets better. (Also TTB advice.)

[@bhmand1669]

I think move and hold is better the heavier the mech, with light mechs having to run around to avoid getting shot.

[@fabfabby]

I did not enjoy having an Atlas in the Lance myself. I usually had an AI in the Atlas, as I used a King Crab. I found the AI was constantly getting the Atlas killed, and more often than not from center torso destruction. It would still have both arms and side torsos, but the CT would be cored. I have three -3S Banshee's I put the AI in now for the super heavy missions. They seem a bit more survivable in my subjective opinion.

Silhouette and large hitboxes was always the Atlas'es biggest issue in the mechwarrior games.

Two PPC + Two Medium lasers => Welcome to the 6D

[@cyberwaste]

I'm enjoying the Highlander. Got a rare one. I also got a rare King Crab but it performs worse, even with more firepower. Haven't found a nice Atlas yet.

[@coldwave007]

I personally really like using the RS with 2xPPC, UAC5, +SRMs. The pinpoint damage PPCs at range, and UAC5+SRMs for brawling. Works very well.

[@timothyhansen6581]

Based on the positioning & size of the weapon mounts, I think the Stalker 3H is fine as-is - though you might have wanted to change the lasers to ER Smalls, if you could have found those. The Stalker 3F's, on the other hand, could have benefitted heavily from having two LRM-15's, two SRM-6's, & two PPC's - or even the ER PPC's - in their Large Energy hardpoints, while taking the Mediums down to Medium Pulses or even Smalls. The LRM's would be for long range & indirect fire, the PPC's for long-ish direct fire, & the SRM's & Small Lasers would be for point defense. As long as you grouped the weapons up correctly, so the AI doesn't try to use the SRM's & Small lasers first before firing the rest of it.

[@DivineInt]

Bara, I don't know if you're aware or not but AI or human pilots do not gain missile skill whilst using Artemis weapons. Found out today from reddit and some testing after I noticed my pilots skill not going up. Switched all mine to normal LRM/SRM and they get skill again. Hope this helps :)

[@JM-db8ez]

@@DucDrace Eh? Plenty of missions that go 370+, I use that lance frequently. Not sure what you're on about. I should mention that I'm further along in the story line than Baradul, almost finished actually. That last push is a logistical thing. When my tonnage limit (for story missions) was 340 I used 4 Stalkers, that was strong. At 360 I can use two 100 tonners (Atlas/Annhiliator usually), Stalker and Black Knight, or sometimes 2xBlack Knight. Mix and match all day long, but once you get to 370+ then the 2xAtlas/2xStalker lance is pretty solid.

Wouldn't you get the big repair savings just from jumping to the nearest star system that isn't in a warzone? After all, warzone is what causes the penalties to repair speed and cost so wouldn't it be enough to get out of the warzone instead of going all the way to an industrial hub?

I sold my free Warhammer after it died in 3 straight battles. Cool looking mech that has reasonably good hard point locations, but the moment it gets focused by the enemies... it’s armor collapses. Same thing kept happening to my thunderbolt. The enemies would always focus it, and it’s hard point mounts were really low. Did not like it constantly costing me half a mil in repairs every mission.

I could be wrong , but I think that one of your AI pilots shot at another of your AI pilot because it was aiming at an enemy mech beyond it , which would explain why you lost your Warhammer all of a sudden.

You get 0.62 free tons after maxing armor on an Orion (not-M) over a Warhammer. The tonnage isn't worth it, but the silhouette might be better and the lack of smalls might better incentivize the AI to play like not-idiots. (Spreadsheet from Reddit).

Here is a question: The campaign company you are working with (Interstellar Expeditions) for me constantly has more salvage negotiation options than I can take. Why?

So why give the mission Y+1/2/3... amount of negotiatable salvage?

Negotiation depends on merc-rank and reputation with the faction. Faction reputation at most gives +5, the rest comes from merc-rank.

[@ellaser93]

@@bhmand1669 Because in the 3050 TR, the heaviest IS mech to wield an AC/20 in it's standard configuration is the Axeman. Which is a heavy. All of the IS assault mechs that had an AC/20 pre 3050 dropped them in the 3050 TR, mostly in exchange for the vastly superior Gauss Rifle. In fact, the only IS mechs that had the AC/20 in their primary configuration were the Urbanmech II, the Hunchback, and the previously mentioned Axeman. Just a personal bias on my part.

[@bhmand1669]

From what I've seen in this game, the gauss rifles seem inferior to the AC20. Lower damage per tonnage, higher heat. Might be easier to use though Bara hasn't gaussed a whole lot since launch, did gauss some in the demo.

Baradul, the main reason you are taking so much damage on every mission are your close/mid-range focussed builds. This will get even worse later in the game. I switched to long-range only builds a long time ago and don't lose any components even on diff 90+ missions. Also you should have a go at light Mechs - for yourself at least.
