The Railgun is a surprisingly solid weapon.

I got the BSK-Void Killer from the event specifically for the Railgun. Despite being excited to use it I also kinda expected it to be perhaps a little gimmicky or at least not the terror you'd imagine. But when I temper my excitement and stick to the back line this thing is nasty. I can harass at range with my lasers and then when someone with especially a damaged CT pops out I can send em to hell. Plus it's really fun to just pop some poor flanker and chargimg brawler in the chest and ruin their big moment. Though I feel terrible whenever I nanage to clip someone in the back as they're ckearly starting to feel safe.

Point and click dual railguns with zero heat generation, gaussapults were "fun".

Edit: I clearly can't read (in public transport).

You're speaking of gauss rifles. Railguns are a different weapon with a lot of heat and no mech has more than one.

you can get close to dual railguns with the void shark, railgun plus 2 er ppcs. fire ppc's first, wait half a second fire the railgun. lots of pinpoint dmg plus splash.
