Crafeksterty's Mobula build then :P

My experimental builds are:
duble gat, double banshee flak mobula
front gat, with left gat-flak and right caronade-mortar junker
all banshee junker
quad Helhound with mortar left and harpoon back galleon

Thomas:
I tend to have a lot of fun with the carro-flamer or carro-gat pyramidion. For some crazier fun I go 'Sky Whalin'' with a mine launcher and harpoon on the front. This allows for some active mining, and with the pyra's mass it makes the harpoon a little easier to deal with. Then there's mine squids and a carronade fish a mine launcher on the side.

Sammy B. T.:
I used to not fly the meta and be really effective. Then the Meta changed. Its like the opposite of this



For me though, if a build is effective, I call it meta. Things generally don't just randomly work.

But that's not what meta is... Something can be the best build in the game by a long way, but if only one or two teams use it then it's not meta.

(But I agree that things don't work out of nowhere. Usually there's the meta, then a few other builds that work well, and a few more that work situationally)

Crafeksterty:
Things that are purpously made to work the best and is commonly known. Bit like how people know gravity... Is meta. (But it is called Meta because it is a game you are playing. Using stuff that is definetly not your own is Meta.) In Dnd campaigns, playing by stuff your character shouldnt know is Meta. In video games, if you play by the usual and purposfully thing to work. Its meta. There are lots of builds you can call meta, but usualy the most popular ones are the most defined as Meta.

My double Hades + heavy flak spire example is actually a Meta to the builds effeciency.
What makes it non Meta is having AI. It is more effective with AI, but unusual.

Here is another build.
Pyra: Double Merc front, Gat Mort Left. (Aproach with Double Merc, brawl with Left side.)
It has Meta workings on its pair of guns. BUT its placement is unusual.

(Now, pyramidions is the ship that you can be least flexible with in terms of builds so pyras usualy have Meta working weapons)
