Well done, as usual. Good to see another MechWarrior that uses the stagger-shot. I personally use it on my Woodpecker (2xRAC 2 Raven) to suppress and stare down damaged assault mechs. So much fun! Also, why do people gripe about heat/night vision? They are necessary components of the game and sometimes you just cannot perform without them.
I actually run a STD 255 engine on my RAC-5 X1. Less heat management and speed, but losing a side torso doesn't slow down the mech or kill the Heat efficiency. That, and the RACs tend to jam LONG before the Engine's 10 DHS crap out on the heat build up.
@@emeryhenry1849 The cooldown nodes don't affect RACs either - my point was that going via High Explosive would just waste a single skill point instead of two.
@@emeryhenry1849 Yep. There are a few cases where taking a shortcut through a useless node leave you with extra points to use in something better. Just something to watch out for.
Ah, my favorite show, Mornings With Baradul. With your stagger shot you can fire at a lovely 960rpm. You're a machine gun. Even the fearsome Piranha fears you.😁
I used to love this build back in the day. Right now I really like the dual UAC10 bushy. Either way, nice work as usual Bara! Thanks for making such good videos all the time.
just used this build I love it!. I use the 2 rac 5 with 2 med laser incase my racs jam. Only use the lasers when they jam so i don't shoot out of the laser's optimal rng but if I have clear line of site i shoot them anyways.
... uhhh it only has one ballastic though, no? ... 3 energy and one ballistic on the right arm and 1 or 2 missile hardpoints in the right torso iirc ..
Hey Baradul I love your videos great build ideas fun to watch. I tried the bushwacker build with dual rac. First game no skill 900 damage 1 kill awesome job mate.
Yeah, they try that with me, too - but I like running a Bushwacker X1 with 3x SSRM6, four machine guns, tag laser and an active probe instead of the popular triple RAC2 variant. Those light mech pilots don't seem to expect that kind of loadout from a bushie. 😁
@@BrokenCurtain I have almost that exact build for the last drop of Faction Warfare match. When the clannies are trying to swarm you with a dozen fast lights, a BSW-X1 with streaks and MGs just fucking destroys things.
When you've got the XL RACwacker you can've got enough speed that you can reposition towards your team very quickly though. It's only if you're doing a really slow (LFE 250 ish) build that you can't repos so much.
Just let the team have it when they repeatedly walk in your way to try to kill steal. They'll learn the hard way. Racs are impossible to miss going down a firing lane, if you walk into them you deserve what you get.
It is hilarious how OBVIOUSLY confused everyone you focused on got. They just mentally fell apart because they didn't know how to respond to that volume of fire.
I tried slapping 2 rac5 ‘s and 2 rac2’s on a king crab but no matter how many heat sinks I put into it though I could only sustain fire for like 2 seconds xD
lol at that guy in chat who complains about players going for kills calling them tryhards .. well what you wanna do? the game primarily rewards Killassists, Kill most damage dealt and solokills .. damage alone is secondary were no matter the mech you need at least 400 to 450+ dmg to get the minimum matchscore of 250 to not fall in the tier .. and especialy as a light support mech if you don´t play a aggressive assassine and can´t get the kills yourself you rely on the team for finishing off your targets ..
So I learned a fun fact recently. In Hebrew the word 'Bara' refers to God creating something from nothing. Just something to think about. Spider 5d request number 3, and I hope this day finds everyone well.
Huh. How'd you get 1200 in the second video but only 750 in the first one despite running out of ammo and having pretty high accuracy in the first one? That must've been a monstrous artillery strike

Reminds me of that great song by Sir MistLynx-A-Lot called Baby Got RAC.
Ok ok, I'll rep that. Good hustle!
Bushwhacker is a really charming mech. I used to have a toy Whacker that fired spring-propelled projectiles.
You doing alright Barra you sounding a bit stressed, just want you to know you don't have to try so hard for us we all love you no matter what
I've been running 2 RAC 2s and a snub nose, lose some dos but I prefer having the pcc for when jams happen

Been using the Rotowhacker for about 6 months now. I love the damage you can do.
2:22 You can take the High Explosive node instead of the two cooldown nodes.
I don't think so. I'm pretty sure the High Explosive nodes only affect missiles

@@BrokenCurtain ok, that makes more sense

Dropping the red smoke on top of the tunnel entrance was beautiful. They had no idea it was coming.
I loved 2xRac 5 Bushy when I was playing. this makes me want to jump back in.
This man said "1200 damage done" as if that wasn't an accomplishment in itself.

Dual UAC10 Wacker is one of the best builds in the game IMO.

My favorite meme-wacker build is 2xRAC2 and 4xMPL. The thing is just HILARIOUS in its damage output in two pulse laser volleys. Would recommend!
6:31 'Holey Macaroney' time
My favorite RAC-Whacker!
Good to see people leading their fire with ballistics.
cooking with Baradul todays recipe: a whacking bush 🌳
I switched the stock weapons on the quarantine wolverine for racs and it's so good
... uhhh it only has one ballastic though, no? ... 3 energy and one ballistic on the right arm and 1 or 2 missile hardpoints in the right torso iirc ..
I don't want to dip my toes into yellow snow pls...
when i was a kid we used to dip our toes into the yellow snow all the time :D
This reminds me so much of the A-10 Warthog
Nice dmg output on wacker.
7:35
HAH! How unfortunate. The enemy team must now run a naked lap around the house after that performance
Hey Baradul I love your videos great build ideas fun to watch. I tried the bushwacker build with dual rac. First game no skill 900 damage 1 kill awesome job mate.
One of my favs! Finally got the balls for the XL too!
I love running RAC bushwhackers. The only downside is when fleas or osirises get too close in stealth mode and backstab.
Yeah, they try that with me, too - but I like running a Bushwacker X1 with 3x SSRM6, four machine guns, tag laser and an active probe instead of the popular triple RAC2 variant.

HOLY MACARONI! Great games Bara, thank you.
I swear the Bushwacker is tankier than a Banshee. I run my Wacker XL at all times and it's tanky as hell.

"kill steal"
Who cares lol
Did the X1 not exist in its current state or something? Exact same build but you wind up with +10% ballistic range
Wacker goes brrrrrrrrr
It is hilarious how OBVIOUSLY confused everyone you focused on got. They just mentally fell apart because they didn't know how to respond to that volume of fire.
It's a crap load of sustained DPS and between the impact explosions and the cockpit shake it literally disorientates you.
Great Video! Thank You!
the bushRacker
Святые макароны!)))
Has Baradul ever tried a Fireant version of the Flea?
Rac Attack! Rac-ma-taz! Rac-nado!

Dul must stand for fields of dead mechs and an in-cockpit toaster oven then.

RAC ist deutlich OP. Ich bezweifle jedoch dass das jemals noch ein Balancing erfahren wird.....
Random comment for channel interaction.
That jaegermech pilot in the 2nd game lacked any form of common sense. Hurr durr 1v3 my firepower can take all of them
