airbursting TOWs behind Turrets from the front is something that any half-way proficient TOW user will be able to accomplish regularly

so it seems that I never met any :P

btw as I finally got some weapon I can use somewhat like efficiently on brawler I had some more time and possiility to play with TOW....

and actually....
I still like GL more :)

I think TOW is better suited for mobility classes like Berserker and Scout. I'm loving the TOW on my Assault. On a C-class mech I'd rather have something else, but I really don't like playing C-class.

LOL. "TOW vs GL".
What about Corsair _ Corsair GL has the lowest DPS in the game (except Repair Torch) and arcuate trajectory. It doesn't have manual detonation or ricochet. And it has damage per shot lower than Grenade Launcher.
Corsair MIRV has a bit higher damage per shot than GL (130 vs 125) but it is short-ranged shotgun with bad refire rate and DPS.

WTF _!

Corsair got wrecked this patch, it needs changes badly and soon. When I see a Raider (that can't aim), it's an easy kill.

Running directly to/from sniper fire means you'll die tired. Taking cover gives (Ke-)Sabot time to reload.

Bump, never heard back on this,  Gl has a slower refire rate than tow, considering Tow used to fire slower than GL, and now fires faster, I am failing to see the logic, they should be equal, as tow already has pro's and con's and so does the GL, damage and fire rate should be equal.
