What is the "2x" signifying on elite'd mechs?

[Xacharon]

I believe your Basic Proficiency bonuses are doubled once you complete the Elite Efficiencies for that variant.

If that is true, then that is a HUGE incentive to do so! Thanks!

Anyway we can get confirmation?

[T0rmented]

It is true. Period. Choose a basic skill in the 2x column, notice the description now says efficiency doubled, there is your proof.

It's true, been that way for a long time

Cool, I had not noticed the wording "Efficiency Doubled" until pointed out to me in this thread. Thanks. I have not worked the mechs to master yet, do the elite skills also get doubled?

Unfortunately, no.

Better is relative.. some mechs become very twitchy once the 2x hits.. kind of wish we had the option to turn that off per chasis. I'm tired of getting whiplash in some of my mechs

I wouldn't call it unfortunate.

Every bonus like this means less skillfull enviroment where it is all about gear (in this case, efficiencies) and not about skill.
