Pros: Super fun to chain fire 6x AC/2. Something about it just makes me giddy. Annoys the target to no end.
Cons: No armor, no ammo, no heatsinks, no DPS. You're basically a glass potato gun.
The mech is pretty slow, but it'***** box is better distributed than the awesome, so you don't take 90% damage to one location. The field of view is okay (better than the stalker) but not as good as the catapult. There is almost no arm movement at all, so it's pretty stable and converges instantly.
It's also able to pop over terrain and fire with its main weapons, making it a better sniper/gun platform than centurions or atlai. It's a pretty good ambush mech. The variants are also well distributed and don't feel like you're buying the same mech over and over (like the catapult).
I'll update as I play more.
UPDATE: Someone mentioned that he was head shot from behind. Nothing to confirm this so far, but be on the lookout.
New build:
Max armor
4x AC/2
300x AC/2 Ammo
2x MG
3000x MG Ammo
2x Medium Pulse laser
Okay, this mech is not a very good brawler. Good at sniping and ambushing, but the torso twist is pretty slow and it doesn't have a good twist range for brawling. still, there are some mean builds so far. 4x large laser and 4x machinegun is surprisingly evil.
