MWO Build & Skills : The Fangtastic Fang
With the Large X-Pulse Charger being so fun and brutal, I decided to build something similar on a lighter chassis. After perusing the quirks, I realised the Fang has massive quirks that suit Large X-Pulses!
While fragile with it's XL285 engine, it's combination of speed, mobility and (sustained) firepower is rather unique although one has to facetime too much to get that damage in.

Tip of the Spear Brawl Action !
Переглядів 33614 днів тому
In my previous video, I shared about one of my favourite builds : The Large X-Pulse Laser Brawl Charger. After recording the vid, I actually decided to improve it by giving it better convergence by having the Large X-Pulses on the left and Small Lasers on the right. This allows it to peek only the left side to fire at longer ranges with the LXPLs (without exposing too much of the mech) and also...
MWO Build & Skills : High DPS Dakka Black Widow
Переглядів 82021 день тому
So the Black Widow is one of the nicer Inner Sphere Hero (Heavy) Mechs due to its 4 Ballistic hardpoints in the Side Torsos with some energy hardpoints, all quirked nicely. Although not a fan of the Warhammer chassis (heresy! ikr!), I do like this high DPS build due to the amount of damage it can shoot out in a short period of time albeit being really fragile due to the XL engine.

Due to fiction or otherwise, many players often believe that the best way to play MWO is to rush forward trusting in your armour to hold as one blasts the enemy at short range, coming out bloodied but victorious.

This is one of my favourite builds and it’s actually really easy to play. With 3 Large X-Pulses and 4 rapid-firing Small Lasers, the SDPS (Sustained Damage-Per-Second) is insane due to its quirks (eg. -15% Heat and -65% Small Laser Cooldown). Just be mindful of the heat generated and don’t be overly aggressive which are the problems users of this build often face. With practice and careful posi...

    first match, if it were me, my team would have rotated away and I'd have been cored by 3-4 pinpoint builds

    • @ClanBRxV
      @ClanBRxV 7 днів тому

      It takes experience to get a "feel" of how the team is gonna rotate. I held the left as long as I could or the enemy would have pushed through en masse and murdered my team. Made sense to pin them down as long as I can before falling back. Helped that my main weapons were on my left so I expose minimally. That being said, team DID rotate away from their push on our left (see the Warlord turn tail and run then blame the team) and I eventually had to fall back under too much pressure. Thankfully I had speed and mobility in my Fang so it was easier to fall back. I just wish teams would hold and push the enemy for cresting the hill rather than fall back at the first sign of pressure.... 😓 - BrioS

    • @ClanBRxV
      @ClanBRxV 7 днів тому

      That's also very legit. Personally I almost always prefer DPS over survivability but that's more of a personal preference thing. With the additional tonnage from XL giving additional tonnage for speed/firepower/etc, it helps many players be a bigger threat. Survivability can be improved by skill like twisting, better positioning, etc. I actually ran LFE + 3 LXPL before with the right side used to shield (and then you can dab!) but just didn't like it. But no shame using LFE; like I said : personal preference. ;) - BrioS

      Hey! Welcome to the game! Hope you like the game and my content. I post casually (about once a week) and I don't monetise my channel because, for me, it's just to share my passion and hopefully people learn about good builds and good gameplay. Do hop on to the discords to connect with the community if that is your thing. MWO is a REALLY deep game if you want to dive into it and learning from experienced others is essential if one wants to "get good". Lots of misinformation too (because it is old, with bad documentation and a string of changes over the years) so expert others to clarify things always helps. Anyway, I've pinned the build and skill code links in the comments but here it is for easier access:- Build Code : A16820E1|Jd|GO|KPpj0|l?|e@qj0|l?|e@rA0|[<2|dOs10tl0|GO|KPul0|GO|GOv60|KPw302020 Skill Code : aff5fdfdf76de7c570b49cdf56f00000000000000404a035a399190000000 Modify the skills to your preference. This particular build is harder to play because of the XL engine so requires some above average level of defensive skill like twisting damage. Anyway, hope to see you around in-game or in discords. Oh, and thanks for the subs. Cheers man & Salut! - BrioS

      A lot of the more highly skilled players exhibit excellent defensive skills and tbh defensive play is one of my weakest and not at their level. But I run XL on a lot of my IS builds to practice these defensive skills (like twisting damage away, etc). Any mech can be "tankier" that way.

    I may have my feed order wrong, but if you moved the AC10 ammo out of the CT and into the leg, I think you could force it to feed AC10 ammo out of the arm first, limiting the potential loss of that limb. Otherwise, a great build, could make me use something other than 4 AC5s on the BW.

Just take (and roll) the damage while continuing to move and making use of cover. Post match I could see that the chainfiring ERLL Dire did effectively nothing considering his loadout and position.

    @jtnachos16 25 днів тому

    I'm going to preface by saying I HARD disagree with point 4 in your 'what snipers should be doing' list. The problem isn't with snipers or sniper assaults. It's with the simple fact that the majority of ones who try to fill that role are incompetent in it, but then cite damage values at end of match as evidence of competence. No. 500 damage with 3 KMDD is FAR more impressive than 1000 with 0 KMDD. Big numbers mean either that you did a lot of work that match, in which case you will have a corresponding number of KMDD and/or component destructions, or that your fire was mostly ineffective. I would rather have a sniper with 300 damage and 4 component destructions than 600 damage, 1 solo kill, and 2 component destructions on that solo kill. The one that technically did less damage, had a MUCH larger effect on the enemy team's ability to fight. I do a better job as a 'sniper' with a Hunch-GI running stanGauss+ERmeds than most players do with Assault mechs utilizing ERppc, ERLL, and gauss spam. Why? Because they think snipers don't move, and their target prioritization skills suck hard. I've seen a sniper DW, with ERLL and gauss, let 3 different allies be killed by a KC, because the idiot was both stationary (thus not moving to get line of sight, when his position fully allowed it and he was literally waiting for the KC to round the corner when 10 steps to the right would place him in LOS while he was shooting at allies) was shooting for CT and legs (while out of optimal), instead of hitting the already nearly stripped claws. I've also seen way too many waste time on lights they aren't even hitting, instead of maiming the enemy heavies and assaults that their team will have more trouble with. Good snipers aren't static, and provide EFFECTIVE fire. Getting damage doesn't mean your fire is effective. Too many matches I see people going 'I did damage, therefore I was mvp'. No. The mvp is the one that had the most impact on the enemy team's ability to fight back. Sometimes that MVP is a locust who chose JUST the right moment to jump the enemy firing line from behind. He may not have done much damage, but he got them looking the wrong way as a friendly lance rounded the corner into what is now the enemy's back, in the process enabling the maiming/killing of multiple enemy mechs at minimal loss of his own team's fighting capability. Other times that MVP is the direwolf UV loaded up with LB5s that was a little late to the party, but walked out with 5+ kmdd and 700 damage. Yet other times it's the crab/cent/enforcer/insertmediumhere who was just popping out from behind an allied assault to vomit on distracted targets, specifically aiming for open components or critical hitboxes and running out in the open just to force the response toward him, to split some of the fire off of the ally assault already getting hammered, so that assault gets a few seconds more to apply their own firepower, or hell, maybe even lives to tell the tale when they otherwise would have been wrecked entirely. I play a lot of wingman and fire-support role. Assault snipers in particular annoy me because most aren't good enough to make up the armor and firepower deficit they create at the front lines.

  • @gideonchua9448
    @gideonchua9448 25 днів тому

    I don’t think the frustration is with the value of snipers, that much is fairly evident to most players, but rather that the game often rewards snipers over the rest of the team which they rely on. It’s significantly easier to get 1.7k damage sniping than it is doing the same brawling, but without the brawler soaking up damage and holding up for as long as he can the sniper can’t get his damage out. And yet, this game more or less rewards dealing damage above all else. This isn’t necessarily a problem in an of itself but it can be pretty frustrating well your roll in a match is just to be a wall so the guy in the back can relax. As to your point about sniper assaults I would like to point out that the Night Gyr can run the same weapons systems while being 15 tons lighter. It’s not a perfect comparison of course but shifting those 15 tons to the front line does means extra armour for you team at the cost of more heat for you. All this to say, I don’t think a snipers usefulness is the problem. People who argue that kinda let there frustrations cloud their judgement. Snipers are however an inherently selfish role as per the current state of the game which understandably leaves other players feeling rather jaded.

    Teamwork seems to be overrated these days. The PSR doesn't help. With that mech, you want to engage long range. It gives you time to deal more damage as they close. It can brawl, but not well. The HAGs hurt your heat, but they deal a bit more damage and you can carry more ammo for more damage over time. Lights are a pain in the ass to that mech. I've been backstabbed many a time. But, like you said, it's their job. That said, you don't have to give them an easy kill either. That mech consistently does well in that niche using either the older build or the newer HAG builds. It never gets old. What makes me laugh is when someone takes missiles with the gauss rifles.

      Yeah, the small laser boating version is also very legit albeit short ranged. Either way, like you said, the 1A1 is a good buy and just plain fun ☺️ - BrioS

    It's a shame that the Gargoyle can't do what this mech does. They are not easy to kill once they are in range, and they do well on brawl maps with lots of cover.

    What if you run this with ER Smalls and a big Targeting Computer?

    • @ClanBRxV
      @ClanBRxV 29 днів тому

      It's already hot as it is so ER SLs give better burst but poorer sustain and this mech is about sustain. A TCom would definitely help but I was going for max heat dissipation so got a DHS instead. All these options are legit, just have to play it slightly differently. This build is just W forward and button mash. 😊 - BrioS

      This is the build I run, and while I can confirm it's strengths, your range is VERY limited. The way I play it is to basically follow my lights and just help bully other lights since you are, effectively, an 80 ton light mech.

      Cougar has been buffed quite a few times because it was so subpar at launch. The current patch gave it additional heat dissipation which syncs nicely with this build, making it more feasible and even better as a training mech imho - BrioS

    why play mini hellbringer when you can play the real one, which has obviously a ton more survivability and is just as fast???

    • @ClanBRxV
      @ClanBRxV Місяць тому

      Because I like to suffer........ 🤭 But seriously, being fragile and slow makes one think EXTRA carefully, making this an excellent training mech. I used this a lot when I wanted to get ride of my overly aggressive tendencies (and thus die sadly in the front). Now I'm still aggressive but am more aware of positioning and manage my aggro better. Hellbringer, being a heavy, is more forgiving of errors and this makes one more complacent as one goes through the "ah... I can take that damage..." thought process. - BrioS

  • @mercarryn2042
    @mercarryn2042 Місяць тому

    I picked up the cougar C (the one with medium Er lasers and a Gauss rifle). You can run it in stock configuration like a Hellbringer (a bit of armor distribution), but without the ecm and it just does fine. I actually like the cougar more than the Hellbringer despite the tonnage difference.Going to check your laser vormit though, sounds interesting.

    • @ClanBRxV
      @ClanBRxV Місяць тому

      ECM in the COU-H head REALLY helps in it's survivability. Any Cougar can run this build being an Omnimech and it's pretty lit. This mech is just adorable and people tend not to notice it (partly due to ECM...) and when a friendly has the aggro of the enemy, one can just unload a large alpha into a component and return back to cover. - BrioS

      Glad you like it. It's pretty rare but as you realise, once one gets used to the arse mounts, it's pretty damn strong. The Trebuchet-5J with a similar build is also unique and strong but with arse mounts if you like mechs with shitty mounts 🤭 - BrioS

      It actually is! Now that it's available for MC, I would wholeheartedly recommend this build. Considering that +30% combined with the damage output, it grinds chills really well. Most importantly to me, like you said, it's good for training certain skillsets. - BrioS
