It's the worst crab for me, even in the statistic.

The point is that putting max engine and, maybe, 5mpl you have a slower Fs9, with worse hitboxes and no JJ.

3LL for the quiks, but.... sadly it's too hot for that LL spamming levels.

I dunno... it's the only crab I didn't enjoy.

I agree 3 LL is too hot, so I went with 2 LL and 3 SL with the max engine.

First impressions are good. CRB-20 armor location may vary.

See, the max engine isn't worth it if I your going to boat LL's.

<shrug> best stats for me so far. FS9-S and CDA-2B are among my favorite mechs, so having a 50-ton version just cracks me up. Not awesome, but super fun and right in my wheelhouse. I'm loving all four, mind you. :)

Posted this config in the bigger Crab thread. Max engine, max armor, low facetime. Three 35-point pinpoint alphas before overheating... then just ride the LPL if you can't escape to cool off right away.

Dunno, this is the best crab for me, max engine 5MPL and managed to get 1000 damage in it, it's a really tough sustained fighter. It's great for dogfighting and all that.

Overall, solid.

I have to admit seeing a crab run almost as fast as a light mech scares the crap out of me LOL
