Welcome fellow testers (and Mechwarrior fans). I decided to create a number of reference sheets not long after getting in the beta because simply put there weren't any quick and easy to read images of the raw game data that was being compiled by others. What you see below are the results of my efforts. I hope it's as useful to you as it has been to me.If this guide helps you please do consider checking out / subscribing to my Youtube channel which is now partnered up with The Game Station. It's a quick and easy way to help me out, plus you may even see some MWO content on occasion. This may include guides about in-game tactics, and on building the best mechs possible.Alternatively I've been asked several times to share a Paypal link. If my sheets have helped you, you're not into the whole Youtube thing, but you'd like to send a gift you can use the button below to do so. This is entirely up to you.We now have a web version of the Excel document available for you, which should get updated very quickly after patches go live. You can find it at:Now on to the reference sheets! First up, Mech Hardpoints. We're messing with colors again in order to maintain compatibility between Excel and non-excel users (i.e. Open Office, Google Docs). We're starting to run short on room in this sheet, we might have to split chassis types going forward (Lights + Mediums, Heavies + Assaults).Image for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO-hardpoints.PNG PDF for download or printing: http://www.dotamento...MWO-hardpoints.pdf Excel for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO.xlsx Much like my hardpoints content, here's a quick reference sheet covering just the weapons in Mechwarrior Online.Missile damage assumes landing a full volley, which isn't typically realistic due to terrain, AMS, and of course general guidance issues. LB-X spreads damage over the areas hit by 10 mini-shells. Lasers need to retain focus on the target in order to apply full damage.Range on anything but the missiles designates the effective range of the weapon, where full damage can be applied. The distance between range and max range designates where damage tapers over distance. For missiles SRMs apply full damage at 0-270, nothing further and LRMs apply full damage (if they are able to hit) up to their max range. Standard PPCs have a minimum range of 90M.Image for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO-weapons.PNG PDF for download or printing: http://www.dotamento...MWO-weapons.pdf Excel for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO.xlsx Pilot lab data now entered and available in full!Image for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO-pilotlab.PNG PDF for download or printing: http://www.dotamento....MWO-pilotlab.pdf Excel for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO.xlsx Engine data added as well, both as a full breakdown and information cheatsheet.

Some engines come with heatsink slots that can fit either single or double heatsinks inside (depending on your heat sink upgrade level). When heatsinks can be placed each one occupies just one slot inside, regardless of the size.Image for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO-engines.PNG PDF for download or printing: http://www.dotamento....MWO-engines.pdf Excel for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO.xlsx Tonnages had to be shifted off to a new sheet due to the addition of new mechs. You can find the resource on a new tab of the Excel sheet, and/or in the images and PDFs below.Image for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO-enginetonnages.PNG PDF for download or printing: http://www.dotamento....MWO-enginetonnages.pdf Excel for download: http://www.dotamento...MWO.xlsx Note: If you're not familiar with Excel, then it may appear when you download the XLS that it's only one sheet. Excel documents actually support multiple sheets, look at the lower left part of the excel doc and you'll see the tabs.
