I can fire one at and last about 2 minutes. When in water I can fire forever...with all three or chained forever.

Similar configs with Large Pulse Laser and ER Pulse Laser almost work as well.

this is the biggest abomination ive ever seen
and its a boat too
<_<

No it's not an abomination, it's cool...you can't complain about someone putting together a 39HS ride.

Is that specialty armor?

Nope

I've tried this ride though I had four less heatsinks to add engine, LAMS and .5 ton of armor. It was lackluster for me. Does the +4HS make the difference?

I also have run that same mech but with 3x IS LPLS The short range makes it almost a brawler but considering other options I've not had success with it either.

The extra HS make all the differance in the heat.

try these configs
2erppc,4light gauss
2light gauss,1erppc.1clbx20,2cflamers,5medlasers
2erppc,2hvygauss
2lxpl,4rac5

btw...crank up your grafix....u may be running on a crappy comp but when u play multiplayer u can get away with higher grafix and its still very smooth....i have an 800 celeron with a 64mb vidcard and 160mb ram and i have my grafix on ultra high with my resilution at 1280x1024 and it still runs smooth as butter ...most of the time

My fave Fafy
4 RAC2+1 each
3 LXPL
NO arm armor
min speed
ECM
leftover tonnage for heatsinks

This config can strip armor like nobodies business and it has good knock too.

2 CUAC20+2 each
5 CFLAMER
ECM
50ish KPH
armor and heatsinks to your liking.

2 HGR+2 tons ammo
22 tons specialty armor
LAMs
ECM
Min speed
as many small and medium lasers you can fit.



UNBOAT FAFY

1 HGR+1
2 LGR
LL
PPC
Heatsinks, speed, components and armor to taste

And here, I just run stock.

well the stock fafnir is actually very good

2 hg 3 ISLL almost full special armor 42 speed 5-6 HS
or same mech with ferro and a few more HS moves at about 55-60

alot of succes with this one

2HG + 2PPC + specialty armour. Its simply BRUTAL

Xiom, you're such an Xpulse freakkk! That thing is scary... as much as your 5 xpulse atlas

btw...learn to spell

graphics

Could someone kindly post a (working) photo of the Fafnir's mech hitboxes? (And Atlas and Daishi if avaiable) The Fafnir is by far my favortire mech, but for some reason doesnt seem to last as long then when I have an atlas.

Anyways, its not all that bad to have 8 UAC2's on your Faf either

I've used 2 HGR's and 2 ERPPC's, but it seems to load up alot of heat (more than to be effective in a prolonged firefight) so i use the 2 HGR's and throw on ER Large Pulse lazers to either arm

Just pilot one and look at your damage display that will give you a rough idea about the hitboxes , this does not work for mp mechs btw

4 RAC2+2
10 SPL

this thing his hilarious to pilot, I love it

Y'know.......most of my Fafies tend to have to possess the same exact weapons my Dragons carry, albeit that they are doubled.....

I'd be careful of piloting that Fafy if you drop with Didy or Gnosis You may take more DFA head shots than Rocky did in all his movies

No......according to Gnosis, Fafies are very difficult to DFA. That is, you can knock them down, but it'd be difficult to hud them.

If I remember correctly. Then again, I've never tried it myself....

i only have dashi hitbox pic, and mektek is going to change it in mp2

for what its worth....

Actually, Shwinglepuck does more dfaing than the pair of us combined. As for me- I use a fast Thor with enough firepower to take most things out regardless of whether or not I dfa them, and when I use it, it's generally not with the exclusive intention of dfaing. I haven't used cougars for a while, and I wasn't that great at dfaing things with them even when I did.

And I haven't seen enough Fafnirs online to know well one way or the other if their hud takes damage when you bounce off the top of them. I suppose you might have to aim your trajectory more towards the front.

Some of the other Faffy's I've messed aroudn with are as follows:

2 HVAC 20's + 1 each
2 ER LL
3 H Med Laz

if you can manage to get in close, you'll do ALOT of damage- it also gives some good knock too when I chain them (something is constantly being fired at your enemy)

4 CUAC5's
2CUAC10

this ones good for medium to short range- the 4 UAC5's strip some armor and allow you to get in close for a big punch with the UAC10's. If Im close enough and get off the first shot, i've manage to take out other 100 ton mechs without even taking any damage, due to all the knock.
