because artemis adds to tonnage but not to dps? Artemis kinda increases effective dps, since it tightens the clustering (when you have line of sight) but smufys is assuming that 100% of shots hit for its dps calcs anyway

Well. Thank you kind Sir. I am Idiot
Ofc, that makes sense.

PGI plays fast and loose with TT/lore stuff anyway so why not put in some of the mechs that use MASC and just leave it out? The the Shadow Cat, and some other the other mechs, that are good and viable even with out it. I would rather have the Shad Cat w/o MASC than not at all. The Clans are missing out on some good mechs because of the whole MASC thing.

3 LRM 5's , remove artemis systems, 1 ER Large Laser?

Just hope they don't have a single AMS.

cLRMs are terrible for that.

Well, hope they don't go all SRMs for that build. If they do, they're going to be nightmares for lights all around...

I usually like Alexes work but all I have to say about this mech comes from the mouth of Arnold Swartzneger himself.

(YOU ONE UGLY MOTHERFUCCKKER) here is the Ice Ferret I knew below.

Yeah I don't know why Alex didn't stick with the classic boxy look, TRO style, like the one one the left.

[BSK]

OMG, that Ice Ferret looks like a pregnant kangaroo in the Mechlab ..

[scruffy416]

It looks like a piece of pie that grew arms and legs.

I'm not sure why I like the look, but I do.

[AlbertoT16]

It somehow looks like a Spider but with muscles

Yeah, I agree. Same goes for the consept art of the Kit Fox. I was pumped for over half a year for it, but the final result really dissapointed me and now I barly play the damn thing. I hope they improve on this kind of stuff as it hurt my wallet and feelings. Customization is 50% of the fun in my opinion. At least the Kit Fox did get an awesome cockpit though.

Prepare yourself for awesomeness..

So far its not a bad mech. It has some fit issues (only 9.5 tons of pod space) but you can still make some very effective load outs with it. Already have come up/used 10 ton lighter SCR builds - that move WAY faster. Things also a tough little nut, just torso twisting a bit and it becomes the energizer bunny - it keeps going an going an going.....

Not ONE 3rd person view shot?

Can anyone compare IFR size with Death Knell size (with pictures), please.
Similar laser builds and speed, so I am curious...

The Ice Ferrit is a medium and the Death's Knell is a light, they will not be similar. The Ice Ferrit is roughly Blackjack size.

Actually when I see it in game, I think it's the Brave Little Toaster!

No matter what new mech or weapon system is released...Players can't count on anything having a set level performance in which to bank on. Every other patch riki tiks a mech or weapons system up or down depending on the weekly whim of the PGI Universe. They like making big mech small and a small mechs big.
