Considering how the Cataput A1 and K2 have been "fixed", PLEASE, don't do to the 3L anything that would also affect the 2X and the 4X, those certainly don't need any nerf.


No kidding. I've spent the last few days playing with my new 2x and 4x, and they are most certainly NOT a pleasure to play. Slower than a dragon, paper thin armor, piddling weapons loadouts, and with the 4x two of the five hardpoints are ballistic, just to add insult to injury. I'm guessing there will be tweaks soon, given that in the "buff the 2/4x" thread, Garth said we'd have something to look forward to soon.

The only reason a 6 medium laser jenner gets beat by a 3L is because of that HUGE center torso, this is coming form a 3L pilot.

by bringing back the apex preditors of yesteryear. you will be suprised how effective it is to nerf the 3L


the 3L should not be directly nerfed. it was never an issue befrore ECM. meaning the 3L itself is isn't inherently OP


The 3L didn't exist in this game before ECM.

Small Laser boats were never a threat in Closed Beta. It was simply a few people who didn't know how to manage heat and found a way to do consistent damage to newbies.

Wrong. It was a build for people that knew how to manage heat. They understood how the heat system worked and knew that more sinks, better engine and lighter lasers were the ticket.

The newbies were still trying to believe that "heat management" is some miracle cure that will stop a mech from generating the heat the game mechanics tell it to generate.

And judging by your post, not all of them got better.
