Im super happy that youre playing and uploading MWO again 💪❤️ Even if im in a MWO hiatus myself due to no time in life, i really enjoy watching you play, keep it up bara!
great vid Baradul, glad to have you back ATM3's short cooldown is really great also note they're not in the same ghost heat group as ATM6, which kinda hit a sweet spot in terms of ATM DPS. so in your summoner you can alpha strike 6 ATM3 & 2 ATM6 with no ghost heat personally I don't like how TAGs give away your position, but in order to free up the extra ton you could just run c-light TAG & c-light AP. I like how the lighter toys encourage you to get closer with your ATMs so you're in the 3dmg sweet spot. Timber Wolf H is perhaps the best build for this: b=8659e885_TBR-HLGD as it has a MASC, & that 80% ATM range quirk :-) Bonus: 4 LMGs for anything that tries to underrun your ATMs (plus unlike the Summoner it looks cool :-)
Made me look up the Summoner build I made years ago. Summoner F: ATM 12, 3 mpl, and two machine guns, with LOTS of jumping. It was surprisingly effective, but that was years ago. I should probably revise it. You benefited from the Summoner effect, where no one takes you seriously as a threat because you are in a summoner! 😄 So you get to fire away as they target other things and wonder where all that damage is coming from.
you should have waited till after tomorrows patch to showcase this one, atm 3 and lrm 5 are getting a buff, you will be able to fire 7 with no ghost heat. since your just discovering summoners you should give the c varient a look, lbx 20 cooldown is yenlo wang crazy
I think a summoner was a free-mech once upon a time, so I kinda ended up doing one that had 10x LRM-5, kinda just for the heck of it. It was pretty funny to just chainfire three weapon groups at a time. This here seems like a very nice alternative, in case I want to dust off that mech and give it a spin again.
Been running this same loadout for a couple of months now, but with a different omnipod setup (still 8x ATM3 and TAG, but with the TAG torso mounted and one ATM3 per arm) - SMN-G with the arms from the SMN-B. Very rarely have bad rounds in this - every now and then you find lights that know to close into minimum range, but they usually aren't so good at keeping perfectly beneath the mech when you jump and you can rain missiles onto them. This mech is the reason I'm excited for the ECM nerf / ATM/LRM buff. Build code for how I have mine setup, in case you want to play with it without having to risk losing TAG on one arm or 2x launchers on the other: Aa=L
@WoWoverlord It was the patch earlier this week. For ECM, the range at which it jams sensors or protects allies was reduced from 120m to 90m, which doesn't sound like much, but translates into almost half the total area being covered by a single 1-ton ECM.
I have been trying this build for the last few days and it's so fun. I initally used an ER-Large laser in the left arm for some ranged poking, but swapped to a Heavy Large for a bit more alpha damage.
Lately I've loved my Black Lanner with ATM 3's, you may only get 4 of them, but then you also get ECM, Probe, TAG, and the ability to sprint at 150kph. Only disappointing part is it's named after a bird and yet no Lanner gets jumpjets.
I've been using a similar build for awhile, though I use the summoner g &swap the arm ATMs for a pair of heavy mediums. Slightly less ranged damage but higher overall & strretches the ammo supply better (those 3s cycle quick!). It is a lot of fun & works great for chasing & killing light mechs!
I love ATM Huntsmen and Hunchback II for the same reasons as yours on this mech so idk why I have never tried the same build on a Summoner. I run 3xATM9 on those but the new patch decoupling the ATM3 and LRM5 from the the other launchers on the heat scale limit will change this
I run this thing just about every day, you probably saw me on it. You were in the Jenner on bearclaw if you were talking about the game when you were with battlemech operational. But I run it with one narc, and a med laser and tag in an arm, and a beagle active probe, it's amazing, also take narc skill, fun fact you can add a face decal right on the cockpit and it looks funny. This thing is essentially a direct missile duelist
I'd say the range nodes are super important for atm's because it increases the range that they will be doing max damage or even 2nd tier damage. The extra max range is just a bonus but the sweet spot damage is where it's at!
Hey Baradul, Not sure if you'll see this but it seems there are a few serial teamkillers and overall despicable people going around causing problems. Ltpoohpants has a vid on his channel outing them, would appreciate if you could help bring attention to them but would understand if you don't want that on your channel. We should not let them ruin the community.
I run this build with streaks instead of ATMs when I want to hunt lights. I do wish they would let streaks dumb fire like ATMs because I am helpless against stealth mechs.
I want to make a bit of a guess here. Do you map your tag to 4 and not 3 because you have a mouse similar to the g600, and keeping your thumb lower is better than having it up higher? Or am I completely speculating XD
man id like to try this build. ever since one of the recent updates i cant even get the game to work, just disconnects me right as the game is starting so that not only do i wait the whole time but my mech is unavailable and my team has my idle mech standing there. anyone else having this much trouble? i miss playing :(
They are so evil them 3 ATM spammers! You should get help and push as fast as possible, more dangerous than LRM due to how they seem to center more on your center vs LRMs
A fast mech with lots of ATM3 and ammo bins sounds annoying. Network with the team and spam indirect fire on everything spotted, then blast down light mechs trying to retaliate and outrun everything else. Wonder if some SRMs to pull out for brawls would be profitable in the arm. Because you already have highly flexible weapons in the other slots, and a bit of short range power to knock out a light mech would probably be useful.

Same build I run, as you say, I’ve had some great drops in it!
Where to read about the upcoming ECM changes?
@WoWoverlord It was the patch earlier this week. For ECM, the range at which it jams sensors or protects allies was reduced from 120m to 90m, which doesn't sound like much, but translates into almost half the total area being covered by a single 1-ton ECM.

Baradul using Aiden Prydes mech. Nice.
What an amazing build. Not just mobility and firepower, lots of armour too! Well played!
Lately I've loved my Black Lanner with ATM 3's, you may only get 4 of them, but then you also get ECM, Probe, TAG, and the ability to sprint at 150kph. Only disappointing part is it's named after a bird and yet no Lanner gets jumpjets.
Like the Mad Dogs/Vulture cannot jump and got no wings and also the Scarecrow could be almost seen as a bird.. ;)
Glad you’ve come around on summoners! It’s my favorite mech. Try 8 srm 6. It rips!
Very interesting! I've never used ATMs before, now I get it! Awesome!
I've been using a similar build for awhile, though I use the summoner g &swap the arm ATMs for a pair of heavy mediums. Slightly less ranged damage but higher overall & strretches the ammo supply better (those 3s cycle quick!). It is a lot of fun & works great for chasing & killing light mechs!
man I was just thinking about getting a summoner build, thanks for sharing it around!
I have similar MDD-A and MDD-RV builds which boat ATM3s and man, that spread on them with the TAG spread buff is incredible.
I love ATM Huntsmen and Hunchback II for the same reasons as yours on this mech so idk why I have never tried the same build on a Summoner. I run 3xATM9 on those but the new patch decoupling the ATM3 and LRM5 from the the other launchers on the heat scale limit will change this
More MWO content! I've never used a Summoner before, really interesting build!

Good video Bara. The Summoner reminds me of the BattleTech animated series. So the Axman when. 😄
Love the Summoner. I wish its missile hardpoints in the left torso showed as its 'head' though, purely for nostalgia sake
I always loved the Thor back in the day. 👍🏻👍🏻
This is interesting built, since my missile Summoner do not have the torso missile hard points yet.
Vapor Eagle two 9 atm, 3 hvy small lasers, and tag along with JJs. That's my favorite atm mech
its always nice to see some c bill mechs, builds in play
atm's are just crazy. Have seen a build with 9x atm3's on a summoner once, that was way too annoying
I run 8x ATM3's on my Huntsman Pakhet.
It's a bit hot, but otherwise pretty fun.
Hello Baradul!
Would you mind revisiting one of your Orion builds? I think they got an Armor buff lately.
Greetings 😊
Wauu baradul playing MWO again..nice.. Ok i'll change my summoner loadout into this..hahaha
Any good hard-core clanner from MW4 would have known missile varrients as our own blood mech variants for tournament play :)
I've been running 10x atm3. I'll have to change that up and add Tag.
Hey Baradul, Not sure if you'll see this but it seems there are a few serial teamkillers and overall despicable people going around causing problems.
Ltpoohpants has a vid on his channel outing them, would appreciate if you could help bring attention to them but would understand if you don't want that on your channel.
We should not let them ruin the community.
Baradul is back!
3atm9 on my Summoner feels way too sluggish. Definitely going to give this a shot instead
love it when half your team chases one like mech
that 2nd game was great!
i totaly hate Alpine peaks but watching that 2nd game of your was amazing. GG
The Summoner, embrace it's mobility because that mech is an absolute gunslinger.
I think you'd get better heat mitigation from cool run + max heat than from doing all heat gen nodes. because you're only getting .6% instead of .75%
second map weapon loss was from the enemy at the top of the mountain.
I run this build with streaks instead of ATMs when I want to hunt lights. I do wish they would let streaks dumb fire like ATMs because I am helpless against stealth mechs.
Wait? How'd you get the mechbay background? Trees and stuff?
Man I remember the free to play Bara days... long time ago
Did the new patch with the ATM3 buff already drop?
No, this will be even more interesting.
BTW summoner also good for Gauss PPC.
I want to make a bit of a guess here. Do you map your tag to 4 and not 3 because you have a mouse similar to the g600, and keeping your thumb lower is better than having it up higher? Or am I completely speculating XD
G903 and yes. Thumb buttons all the way. Squeeze that rodent!
Scroll wheel for arty/coolshot lmao
Two great games.
arctic wolf with 7 atm 3s and 2 srm 4s also slays.
man id like to try this build.
ever since one of the recent updates i cant even get the game to work, just disconnects me right as the game is starting so that not only do i wait the whole time but my mech is unavailable and my team has my idle mech standing there.
anyone else having this much trouble?
i miss playing :(
atm on howl timber wolf is devastating
Can't you cram 10 ATM3s onto a Summoner with light tag and a light active probe? Just wondering.
summoner is greatest 🙂
And speed equals life 😊
Please make a video in a Hatchetman.
MechWarrior had a solid fanbase in Germany
They are so evil them 3 ATM spammers! You should get help and push as fast as possible, more dangerous than LRM due to how they seem to center more on your center vs LRMs
The low arms on the summoner make it a hard mech for me to justify using.
It doesnt matter as much for missiles especially with jump jets
does this build work now?
A fast mech with lots of ATM3 and ammo bins sounds annoying.
Network with the team and spam indirect fire on everything spotted, then blast down light mechs trying to retaliate and outrun everything else.

Love the summoner love.
Thors hammer..
#nohomo
ATM 3....make iT RAIN!! (currency that is. lol )
bara: i’ve been sleeping on the summoner
me: same bara same jaaj ps: i don’t play mwo but i will do the same 😅
I do mass ATM 3s on my summoner.
I fnd Atm hard to use in 4 min. Games when your entire team hides then gets slaughtered
Would be nice to have a friendly fire AGAINST YOU summary.
Random comment for channel interaction.
Random interaction with channel commenter.
Is it true that the "Jenner" mech was named after Bruce Jenner?
The ugliest mech.. Ugh.
At least plays fun.
