I really like this format, would love to see more like it: maybe two builds per episode with two missions each. One build is the "This is theoretically possible and viable but not recommended" and the other is "This is a much better version of the first build" and then compare their performance!
I'll have you know, the week you released this, I ended up facing 7 OF THESE MONSTROSITIES in Faction play on Boreal Outpost, with a dual RAC5/LPL Nighstar, and i tunnelled my way through 5 of them because thank the gods i had 100% radar deprivation. That week was LRM Hell's second coming, good christ.
I must have wronged a clanner in a past life because I swear that every time I bring out a mech over seventy tons a LRM Blood Asp decides that I don't get to play the game.

Took me a minute to figure out how to make this build. Anyone wondering.... you have to remove the mentioned omipods from your OTHER mechs 1st. You cannot buy hero omniparts! Baradul, been following your channel for a long time now... you've literally up'd my game and enjoyment of MWO & interest in it time & time again. Thank you for doing what you do. Awesome man. Just awesome. And, I hope to one day see YOU on the battlefield! CHEERS! - Syric Malvayis
Hey Bara, just wanted to say I love your content. I go through a lot of phases of playing MWO, Mechwarrior 5. And Battletrch, and it's your videos that always tip me back towards playing one of those games! Your videos have also helped me get a number of friends into MWO, so now I can drop as a lance!
I’m wondering about using the BAS-A or B chassis instead. Replace the CT missiles with ECM so the enemy can’t lock on to you at long range. And 6xLRM-15 still seems like plenty.
Thanks for the MWO Bara! It looks like playing a high DPS LRM boat is much more challenging that I had given it credit for. Obviously if you team up with a reliable scout mech in multiple matches, you would rock their socks off.
LRM monstrosity generally work better (many times rediculously good) on tabletop or strategy game. Collision detection usually "nerf" this to kingdom come in most sim.
A pro tip: use chain fire on groups 1 and 2, split ur lrms, then push 2 buttons together and that's how u shoot with 2 lurms with max speed without ghost heat
baradul, I don't know if you want this cursed information. I will provide it anyway. By turning off arm lock, and having a button to toggle torso lock, you can point your mech up, or to the side, to force the missiles to move some distance in that direction before manuevering towards targets. What does this mean? If you have arms, you can look up, torso lock, then bring your arms down to lob missiles over a wall without revealing yourself. You can also torso lock 45 degrees on the edge of a building, then use the arms to lock on and fire on a target that is around the corner. No requirement to reveal yourself. Only a requirement for locks.
For my BAS LRM boat, I went the BAS-E 'set of 8' omnipods, 3xLRM20, 1xLRM15, 1xERPPC, CAP. The single peep is nice for knocking down the ECM at mid/long range.
That "Kid" talking is a known player, all Mechwarrior's beware. My Unit and I have encountered two kids, one was a-okay calling targets... One purposefully shot multiple teammates in the back, killing them during multiple matches. We finally just started killing him, once he showed up on our team. He quickly got the message, and disappeared... He always talks and talks non-stop, calling for aid, etc. then He starts killing his team... Look out Mechwarrior's when you hear a kids voice...
@@gabriellentz2516 Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the kids Callsign in game, I couldn't remember it... I just remember Alpha Striking him in the back, after he killed a Grasshopper on our team...
Hey man I know sometimes I gotta take a break from mwo but I just wanna say thank you for making this content. All my friends play games like cod And stuff so it's nice to have you around baradul.
Usually the LRM15 gets a heat penalty per damage done for being so small and lightweight. Don't know about MWO but if you change from 4LRM15 to 3LRM20 can be cooler even tho you need to remove one DHS. Also you go down from 7 to 6 launcher which means you don't need to fire one single LRM15 in the end.
Side note: MWO stopped just short of being able to introduce the Blood Asp F, since the weapon updates quit coming before things like plasma cannons and AP Gauss. That would have meant 2M side torso pods and a dual ballistic CT (I know, that's not much right now). How much crazier could you get with that?
Back before the middle mechanic change were they made them change flight paths based on if you have line of sight or not, I got 1,615 points of damage in a MADiic Scorch with LRM 80 + Artemis & around 2.5k ammo
Personally Baradul my friend I always say play what you want and are comfortable with. If lurm Mechs are your thing play them. If heavy AC brawlers are your thing then play happily. Every type have a place in the battlefield.
In my mind, as an lrm boat, killing lights is the main priority if you can hit them. Getting rid of them removes targeting from your enemies, and they should be much easier to put down as well.
I find lights hard to hit in a LRM boat, and half of them are fast enough to evade missiles anyway. If I want to hunt lights, I go with either streaks, or something I can sandpaper with at close range, like LBX-20 or SRMs.
@@mattjohnson8585 Hmm, I haven't had that experience. If they're bouncing around buildings and other terrain that will block the missiles, yeah, the missiles wont connect. But if they're out in the open, my lrms will wreck them. I run a 60 missile build on a storm crow d variant, so it's not like I'm getting chassis velocity bonuses either.
Heavy Gears was a game back in the mid-90's. There was one skirmish map you were dropped onto the side of a valley and could nearly never successfully make it down to the valley bottom before being tank-sniped, and then if you lived you had to blaze-ass at a hard-right to get around like 4 far-distant tanks to reach a destination. Finally amped up the drives on my Gear, loaded it with 2x2 anti-tank missiles, and gave it a heavy rail gun. Finally made it out of that skirmish after like 2 weeks of trying and cobbling together various Gear versions.
Given that this is a online game reliant on random lack of teamwork/skill players, yes I agree, get your own locks. But in general the nature of MechWarrior/BattleTech, scouts and front liners are supposed to be getting the locks not the support mech. Obviously if they are getting shot at they will back off and loose lock. I do run NARCs on all my LRM boats except my Stalker which has TAG+Artemis but in general having a indirect fire support mech stand in the open to maintain LOS defeats the whole purpose of indirect fire mechs. Even with NARC I frequintly take more dmg than I should being that close and trying to land a NARC. Give how many ways there are to defeat or hinder LRMs, I still say that Radar Derp is OP. Radar Derp should be a 1:1 counter to Target Decay, not percent based so at 5 point it say fuck all to any lock by any mech no matter how much stuff they have into better sensors and locks, skills or equipment. If each point of Target Decay adds +0.7 seconds of lock time then each point of Radar Derp should be -0.7 seconds of lock time.
Having that much hardpoint capacity isn't to the benefit of lobbing insane missile numbers, though obviously there's the match #1 memelaunchers. It's being able to mount them where it's efficient while slapping in whatever you feel like adding (TAG, but also even a modest amount of secondaries so you're not just a slow, easily overrun missile turret).
That is correct, you are completely responsible for your locks. But if your ally, located what ever he does, doesn't keep lock - he can't blame you for not helping.
The missle focused Marauder IIhas 9 missle hardpoints. I have a meme build that loads them all up with LRM 5s. It's garbage on kill confirm, but always racks up high damage numbers😂. you should try it Bara, as a guilty pleasurer build
Nice one, I really liked that LRM 15 build, but I would have gone with a bit more moderate LRM output and thrown a coupe of ER PPC's. Just my fighting style, i like combining LRMs or ATMs with PPCs if I can.
I don't have the Prime, so I've run the E with the Rancor STs, 3xLRM20s and 3LRM15s, it's quite fun with 100+ missiles. After a little fun with the all LRM build I've been running the E with the SO8 and 4xERLL and 4xLRM15, and although toasty, it's quite dangerous.
Ok iam a noob, latest MW i played was MW2 and MW3. How do i get the BAS-E Omnipod? I only have A,B,C,D and Prime. Can i unlock them? How? Or can i buy it? Where?
Man PGI really needs to fix this game. I love it but the crashes and disconnects have been insane the past couple months. Was almost nonexistent for me when I started about 6 months ago.
Nice, fun times. Nice to see something that makes you uncomfortable! I have a missle boat that has a targetting computer and tag, to make locks faster. I don't play it well tho.
*Oh i am in this game* 21:17 .... Ba Nana, that's a me!!!!! I'm so happy,. and sad.... my game crashed on loading because of corrupted files, had to verify and download 3 files again, came back the last minute.
I feel like on the first build if you removed 2-4 tons of ammo you could sneak in a tag and small laser or some MPLs(what I’d personally run) so that I’m close range you’re not 100% defenseless against a face-checking light mech that’s staying right in your mech’s LRM ineffective range. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been in a flea and a LRM boat I’m running against has no close range defense. I probably don’t have much credit for my suggestion though I’m just a filthy tier 5 pilot 💀
Saw someone doing this a few days ago and at the end when they ran out of ammo they rushed the final guy and blocked him outta shooting a cored atlas....we lost, cause that final guy was our team
Is it possible to use it as a Lrm, Srm beast? I run a Marauder IIc 4xlrm 15 4xsrm build and it does pretty well? Plays well at different ranges when they see you fire lrms they charge you and get surprised by the srms!
awesome video , i run a blood kit ACW with chain firing C-LRM 5s ,all 9 of them ,still moving at 113 kph so can keep up with the team ,its really good for finding salty SOUP players as well
Ayyy I was in the Marauder IIC-A in the second game :D It was a hard game for me. Loss 2 out of 3 UAC10 in the first 2 minutes? and had to fight with 1 UAC10 with 2 ER Smalls. :(
I found it unduly amusing that your corpse landed on a big heap of other dead mechs. It isn't just you, "this is where *everybody* dies" :D
Not complaining but it's nice to see some more MWO, and even nicer to see a dual build game. Great video Bara
Seconded.

What idiot got mad because you NARC'd him?!?!
When I get NARC'd I just think: "Damn, that was probably my fault!"
@@malcontender6319 Probably somebody with an assault mech who mostly hides behind Fleas
Those are the games I love bringing my NARC Raven out for.
Do you want to know what gets super funny? When you lock onto a stealth-armor mech because you have tag, and watching them panic.
Jeez, I've spent like an hour or so yesterday in a NARC raven, and today you drop this... One day PGI will boost the scouting bonuses, hope never dies
I know it's a mech assault reference, but this build definitely a literal Star Adder. 130 shooting stars at a time.
Thanks for the MWO Bara! It looks like playing a high DPS LRM boat is much more challenging that I had given it credit for. Obviously if you team up with a reliable scout mech in multiple matches, you would rock their socks off.
Reminds me of my marauder II build with 8 lrm5s on it. Split them in too two groups and chain fire them for a unceasing stream of missles.

These missile videos are fun to watch. I vote for more of this mech.
Me: I promise never to never ever play a missile build ever again....

Your animosity towards bridges is extreme.
Go right ahead and do that build in Roguetech however, guilt free. C-lrm15 for the win

Please more! I'm running out of daily dose videos
How many missiles do u need?
Baradul: "YES"!!!!
Nice fight with all the let's! Yankees just gota have fun!
You have to keep a target and hammer it. Taking a mech off the table instead of spreading the damage across the field makes all the difference.

The B33f did this ages ago with a Stalker. But he didn’t worry about ghost heat and overheated on his second shot. Was devastating though.

Hey Baradul, you should do a video on a LRM80 EBJ-C which has a great amount of missile cool down. It is effectively a LRM100+ LRM boat with 81kph.
The constant stream of missiles after lock on was just ridiculous 😂
Now, try it with ATMs!! >:D
how about doing a similar build but with ATMs ... they have a much more serious punch at medium and are deadly at close ranges.
