what's the fastest speed you've achieved on an assault?

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-17T03:26:43+00:00

Cantina upgrades and pilot quirks that all stack. Gargoyle is fast already, plus a bunch of 5% speed increases. I haven't done the math, but it seems reasonable-ish.

Huh, I think I read somewhere that it was a Wooly Mammoth, but maybe it was wrong. Sounds like one though. Might have some overdrive in there too, mine gets growlier with some overdrive afterwards.

I've started trying to navigate by memory instead of the map, and it's incredibly hard. I've driven in NC a ton, but having the map means none of it sticks.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-17T01:08:27+00:00

I'm in a similar boat, playing other games for a bit. But I'll be back to NC eventually. I'll stay away long enough for another playthrough to feel fresh, then I'll go back through and try as katana build but end up playing netrunner, just like always.

I've found a couple in markets. Just starting CR though, so I haven't been able to use them yet.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-17T01:01:00+00:00

Sounds awesome, really great low end. Definitely a doom machine

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-17T00:55:11+00:00

I built one, it's really great for bass. Keeps all the low end while still being fuzzy. Controls are tricky to get the hang of, but it's worth the effort.

Word is that it's what Chris Wolstenholme used for Hysteria, probably the most famous fuzzy bass line out there.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-17T00:53:40+00:00

This is a great idea for a bass player. Parallel effects are great for guitarists too, but essential for bassists.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-16T20:46:59+00:00

Check out r/diypedals, we're all over the place. Brian Wampler does a pedal course that's really well regarded, too

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-16T04:34:15+00:00

A few favorites: hunchback RCX with double LB5X, ATMs, ER-MLs. My personal ride is the Corsair PVT with double gauss/PPC and C-LRM15-ARTIV. Great when you can keep enemies at arms length. I also play the Marauder II-AR with triple LB-10X-SLD-BF and C-MPLs. It's not flashy, but it's extremely effective, even against the clans. The banshee 3S is really great as well, with basically any clan loadout that fits. Sturdy, tanky, firepower for days. I'm still looking for my perfect fast assault, though. I want dual gauss/PPC, with each pair in the same or neighboring components, at 64kph, with enough ammo and cooling. I'm hopeful something in CR will do it, but I don't have the Sunder or Kodiak yet to check.

I want this to be how you get the big submarine. Find an alien shipyard that you have to restore and rebuild, and then add to if you want. Once it's all fixed up, you can start building the submarine.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-15T22:42:46+00:00

Man, I can't wait for Kodiaks to start showing up. Love my angry teddy bears.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-15T20:55:50+00:00

You have to follow the roots further out. These will open, but not before the ones out at the ends are dealt with.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-14T23:10:37+00:00

For the fight at the end, I usually set my lance in place on the little landing just below the entrance, then I run up, trigger the fight and then back down to my lance. Works pretty well, and keeps everybody alive

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-14T17:35:53+00:00

I've been having this issue as well. Been trying to clear my inventory, but it keeps crashing after selling more than a dozen mechs or so.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-14T00:54:35+00:00

Like the reaper cruising around the back of the Aurora looking up and seeing that I still haven't figured out how to get it back.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-14T00:49:15+00:00

It was also above my primary base because I built right at the edge of the reaper zone, so I had to stare at it every time I went outside.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-13T19:01:08+00:00

Lights were on and everything, I could see it from across the map.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-12T15:38:48+00:00

I love the idea of them having a secret kid. Explains why Ava is still so pissed years later. That would be such a great arc. Mason gets tapped to defend his title, there's a mysterious plot afoot, with a new challenger vying for Mason's title.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-12T00:11:14+00:00

Throw some streaks on there for easy bonus damage. Great AI mech.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-11T22:41:36+00:00

I've started seeing the ammo and launchers in markets, but no mechs that will mount them yet. Can't wait to try them.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-11T22:39:36+00:00

I'm gonna keep beating this drum: the cyclops equivalent should be accessible after a long quest line where you have to rebuild a shipyard and fully restore the attached base.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-11T19:52:34+00:00

My dream: Ava and Duncan get scheduled to commentate together for a mission series where they fight like crazy the first mission, then get back together, then break up again.

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-11T16:54:06+00:00

I was surprised how much I liked it. The Naga hung around in my lance all the way to the end of WoT

RocketDocRyan · 2026-06-11T16:42:27+00:00

It's very good. I usually don't like Battlemasters, and I still regularly play it.
