    Since some are seeking new speeder combo suggestions after explo can nerf, here's a long range combo that i suggest : LRM + RG which am wielding on my speedey, it works good though may not seem effecient always (such as in short range). Here's a recent streak with that combo :

    I personally think ballpark mortar would work better than a long range mortar in this setup.

    Simple, to work with the railgun's cooldown.
    You hit rail, have to wait 20 secs for its reload, my tesla covers around 13 secs of that unless somebody breaks stun.
    Simply click on it.
    Here's another example of me (using shooter), simply click the below link :

    True but havent got any epic ballpark dupes yet, and LRM is better if your landing accuracy is good, since it does more damage, tho ballpark is easier to land.

    @Hokuse @HAPPY SITHSHA

    Here goes a short clip on chasing a flare+explo using speeder and hunting it down with LRM+Rail setup :

    (replay is being laggy)

    Here's another one, but a defeat :

    (Stop uploading this cause replay feature was laggy again, seems a net issue)

    I am all for creativity, but usually when people mention these "setups" the items compliment each other.
    Frost and Torpedo, Frost and Mortar, Flare and Blast etc.
    I am not sure these 2 weapons compliment each other in any way, and I think the reason you are seeing success is the fact they are both epic T5's.

    Actually they DO complement each other, in that they're both great sniper-class weapons.

    They compliment each other as a solid long range setup. The railgun packs heavy damage at long distance while the LRM flings across walls and obstacles (major advantage) at equally long ranges.
    Thus you dont have to engage in close combat most of the time. (However if you do find yourself in a tight case, thats what the nitro is for)
    And It is definitely not necessary to pack frost/flare combo cause the railgun is a self sufficient weapon, but if someone wants for LRM (with slowdown damage perks) and improved accuracy of both weapons, they can add a frost.
    Sure if they were not t5 epics, the setup wouldnt be as efficient as i find it, but again for other league levels (ace and below) rare counterparts will work too. But yeah at nm you do need epic sets of these to deal some decent damage.
    LRM and railgun are the only red t5 epics i got so far, and as for yellows, a t4 tesla bolt (i proudly show them lol). If i had gotten more dupes of frost in place of tesla, i would've used it. If any other weapon, then that. So basically am using whatever i've got with my luck till now.

    Yeah for sure they are both great long range weapons, but I still don't feel they suit a speeder say, but thats because of how I play a speeder.

    I prefer to zip in and out with cannons, grenade launcher and torps etc where as I tend to use rail gun etc on a shooter at range.

    By all means keep using it as you seem to be having great success with it :)
