I'm curious about what post-MP1 Loki Varients people are using them for. It seems as thought there seems to be a huge decrease in Lokis since MP1 came out, so if you;ve stopped using them... let us know why

One word, umm Marauder. biggrin2.gif

I have made some just haven't used them much. Will see what I have when I get home tonight, if any look worthy I'll put them up.

Cause the Ares Kills them.


Still use mine though! Just Stoopid I guess. smile.gif

Ares killer: 2hml's, 2lbx 20's, full speed, ecm, bap, no armor. Find em, shut off radar, sneak in, and rip off their legs. Rinse repeat.

I've never liked Lokis at all. Damn things turn like a cow. I've never been able to find anything it does that I couldn't do as well or better going up or down 5 tons.

Now that we have the Ares as an alternative, there's even less reason to use it.

Done! Have fun listening to your friends curse as you knock them on their arses over and over again.

Full electronics, decent speed. Arrow Thunderbolt and the rest CLRMs. Shoreline, Lakefront, Manorhouse, you get the picture.
No Guts No Glory
Not the best Loki variant but i've had some luck with this

Todesbote
1 CLBX10
1 CLBX20+1 ton ammo
HLL
HML
ECM
stock speed
extra armor
rest into heatsinks
Quarzark
I don't like the ares... it just seems unnatural when I pilot it...

2 ATM12-E+1
1 T-Bolt+1

Blizzard
2 CFlamer
1 CLBX20+1
2 CUAC2
1 CSTRX6+1

it may seem kinda weird but it works quite well.... another varient I have has 5 CMG instead of the CUACs
{RL}PIT VIPER
The Stout Brawler

2 clbx20,1ctrk6 100kph,near full armor,no heat sinks.

Pair the x's together and use the cstrk as a filler between shots.Knock dem ares down!

Sorry Mau, you can't fit 2 CLBX 20 and 2 HML on a Loki. tongue.gif

Card, I would like to see you find another 65 ton chassis with the same manuverability, speed and weapon slots as the Loki.

It turns like a Cow? What are you referring to, the Thor? CB perhaps?


Lets see here

3 CLRM 20, 2 CLRM 10- ECM, BAP, 96 KPH

ERPPC, ERL, CLRM 20, CLRM 10- ECM, BAP

2 CLBX 20, 1 HML-ECM, BAP

2 CG, 1 ERL- ECM, BAP, 89 KPH

3 ERL, 1 CLRM 20, 1 CLRM 10- ECM, BAP

2 ERPPC, 1 CLRM 20- ECM, BAP

3 ERL- ECM, BAP, 100 KPH

5 CUAC 2

I think you're right. It's a 10 and a 20. Still makes big boom boom smile.gif The 1hml, 2lbx20 version leaves some room for heat sinks or armor. Either's a frequent knockerdownerer.

And loki's don't handle badly if you superturn wink.gif
Spiff
For he who likes to knock stuff on its arse from 950m

8LRM10 BAP ECM

For he who likes to be largely annoying whilst blowing massive chunks of crappage apart

3LRM20+1 2 LRM10 BAP ECM

Loki doesn't handle too badly at lower speeds, but once it gets above 100kph it's like steering a brick.
MrCoffee
I still pilot the same tired Loki, with an ATM rack instead of LRM. And it's an unboat, as usual. emot-krad.gif

2x CUAC2
2x ER Large Lasers
1x ATM12E (or 6e, can't remember)

ECM
BAP

It's a good scout.

If you're gonna be S.H.I.T.-ing around here, clean up after yourself.
KrazyGenius
only one person has a different idea here.

use the loki as a sniper, it has all the electronics needed, you just don't get jj's for it.

here's one that's not too bad, long range and all, just have to be able to lead your targets

2 erppc
1 hml (or erll, just don't have the extra 3 tons)
1 ssrm6
stock speed
ecm, lams, bap, armor and sinks that float your boat

i usually chain the ppc's, even on cold maps (added hud effects) and watch the heat on ANY map. good for long range though.

2 cgauss +1 ammo each
1erll
stock speed
ecm, lams, armor and sinks are whatever you need

no heat problems, though you do run into ammo problems after that 42nd alpha. you can also go mixtech and take the erll off for more speed and bap, while replacing the cgauss with light gauss and have a longer range sniper.
Gwydion
I had a scout/harasser/sniper built for NBT a while back. 2CLRM20, ERLL (maybe ERLPL), and ERPPC, all electronics, 96kph (I think). Fun mech if you work the edges of a fight.
