because every pilot is limited in their choices. IDK why, but they decided that we shouldnt be able to have free selection of afinities

I gave her a hellbringer for the hvy / assualt mech phase of the game, 5 med 1 lrm 10 and literal tons of armor, never the best damage.
Was nice to have a fast mech till i maxed the speed on the direwolf.

Naomi works best in a Warhawk with 2xLRM 20s and 1xLRM 15s. That is once you upgrade her from a Vul...Mad Dog. She's not supposed to down mechs but to remove armour at a distance, so you and the rest of the guys can one shot heavies and assaults.

Her affinity is kinda weird tho, so you might want to work around that when leveling her up, by sticking to her missile skills and evasion.

Nah bro. Hear me out: Naomi gets bonuses to missile range and clustering, liam/yuiichi gets bonuses to lock on time and target lock retention. Give liam/yuiichi the LRMs, give naomi SRMs with artemis and watch her use the SRMs as basically a precision weapon

Nothing can compare to laser spam.... missiles are utter garbage. Unless you want to intentionally gimp yourself. I have her maxed and I have tried everything, missiles just dont ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ work. PGI really need to fix this, the problem is that when an AI hit a location they always hit exactly in the same spot with the entire duration...... so laser spam applies ALL its damage to one location. There NEEDS to be some movement in there aim just like their is with the player. Laser spam from the AI is a scalpel that just dissects mechs, at least the player has to aim to do this.

I made Naomis affinity a Hellbringer/Heavy with ECM and laser spam (LPL and meds). Capitalise on her heat management while bringing much needed ECM on the largest chassis that can field it.

Honestly just jam as many lasers as possible onto her boat and forget about missiles until later.

Some of the pilots just don;t get all the class affinity.

I think she can get Warhawk affinity. Not Dire Wolf. And Only heavy affinity to pilot.

I have the dire wolf affinity on her

Now you know why the whining biotch was not promoted: she sucks.

Shes too cute for assault mechs.

heh
I wish they'd let us pick skills for at least our main character. Preferably for our whole squad. No respec, just to 'backstory' what they specialized in...
Stormcrow -> Mad Dog. And once unlocked, will most likely be Warhawk.
