Wow. You guys are using Kodiaks, Long Bows, Annihilators and Masakaris for this mission. When I did this mission I was in an Orion IIC and my lancemates included a Bushwacker and a Loki. :-(
The AI has only one assault (Aisa), and like any Clan warrior, I tried to drop fewer tonnage than the enemy. You guys are all for overkills, aren't you?
@iOnlySignIn You could always just use 8 hellhounds or something. They make devastating fast barrage mechs. 8 hellhounds is usually the fastest way to clear any mission that involves running anyways. But there's so many here in one place, it's faster to use assaults.
note to self: stop thinking about playing this again
Now you understand how War is fought with in the Inner Sphere. Besides that, they have two more enemy mechs, one of which is a Nova Cat that'll put you in the red with only one direct hit.
Did not! It just cuts nonessential armor for engine power and heatsinks. Engine power for running nav points faster and getting quickly into mid laser range, as mid lasers are more efficient. Heatsinks to prevent those lasers from slowing the mech. These weapons, always in the spare tonnage from having the most barrage weapons possible. The mech gets in range, kills, and cools while chasing the next group of mechs. Works best in groups. Only one used here. Definitely single player only.
Elaborating, the highest possible DPS I've found so far, is a Daishi with 11 (or 12 in mektek) clan ultra ac/2s. Bare minimum armor, none at all in places where it's not essential such as one of its arms. This results in 27.5 or 30 damage every 1.1s. At 41kmh they are ridiculously slow, but in an open field a full reactive 70km atlas can't run from 1000 to 800 meters without dying first. And it never stops firing. But it is very very boring... and slow.
Oh. Well, the thing is, AI seems to lock on unusually quickly with thunderbolts. Also they never lose lock no matter how many things walk around or above them like humans do. That plus the fact that thunderbolts do something like 28 unreducable damage per 6.5s for 15 tons (always mount 45 rockets!) vs. 17 to 18 ballistic every 8s for 13-14 tons, makes thunderbolt the better choice for AI use. These are far from the highest DPS builds though, but I didn't want to use them here.
my mistake. could have sworn they never attacked me if i only attack falcon.
i tried the method shown here and my longbows with 2 t-bolt(w/artemis) and 2 lrm20s(alos w/artemis) fired more accurately than i thought they would. but... i was playing with instant action and gave them expert AI. very fast. should try it with 3 gauss rifles on daishi or annihilator. at the speed the enemies are running at you, they should get within 800 metres in a few seconds anyway.
and assaults can kill things faster with long range weapons and low speed, than full/speed and weak weapon load. letting the AI fire t-bolts will probably make them miss with their t-bolts half of the time. you were lucky to beat them this fast.
think it would end faster if YOU loaded up with t-bolts OR gauss rifles along 3 other mecs with similar configs,then have the other lance run infront to commit suicide.
i tried my own preferred method, 1 assault lance(and me) loaded to the brim with long range weapons, and another heavy lance loaded with pulse lasers, MGs and RACs. took much longer than i remembered. maybe the standard configs in PR1 had weaker armour, compared to Mekpak 3.
u should try it with only one lance mate.....ok here is wat u do...........use ur kodi and hav an uller as a lance mate.....then order ur lance mate to shut down.....let falcones lancemates com to u....they wont shoot becuz they only go after ur lance mate who is shut down....then just SLAUGHTER THEM!!!....WARNING....dont kill falcon until she is the last one standing

15 ton thunderbolts with 45 rockets? 16. I'm starting to forget how much things weigh.
