Your Nova builds
« on: 23 September 2014, 13:33:54 »
I enjoy this mech but I switched from Stalkers to Novas and I need help making them work.

Please link to Smurfys and your aid is appreciated immensely.

2 ER PPCs, 4 MGs
6 ER Meds, 4 MGs
5 ER Meds, 5 MGs

Play smart, and the Nova is an excellent mech.

Those look like great builds but why no TC??

No tonnage.
The Nova runs so hot (even with the elite x2 bonus) that you want all the MGs you can cram-in to supplant cool down times.
Plus, they only weigh .25 tons each, so you'd only be getting a low level TC anyway. Better to use a range enhancement module.
I can't tell you how many crits, kills, and component destructions I've scored from having the MGs alone.
