This may anger some people, and confuse others, but I have no idea who Sarah is or what the whole deal with her is. I know its probably something bad, but I literally have no idea. Help a noob out ploxors?

She was a very little girl (like 5 years old or something?) that played MWO with her father and died of cancer. Her favorite play style was a Jenner with Streaks.

Here is the original thread about her: http://mwomercs.com/...9110-for-sarah/

If this is the load-out for Sara, my only grip is I wanted to buy it but why? When I have the same load out on my Founders Jenner? Other than feeling good ,diff paint job and a +5% c-bill increase, I would have 2 hero Jenner-D. If that's the case, guess I will feel like a douche for awhile.

[Ter Ushaka]

Or. Or.

You can just donate the equivalent MC cost directly to Canadian Cancer Society, or to another cancer research foundation of your choice.

[Iron Hyena]

They should give the money they make from the mech, to the girls family.

[Argent Usher]

Hmm... a Jenner w/o JJ?

The pic shows the better choice. It is surely a sad story but a hybrid of all versions isn't enough for me.

Btw drop a ton streak mun for a DHS or armor (plz more points to the legs).

[Angel of Annihilation]

Won't work. If you look, your missing 1 heat sink in the engine which you have to fill. That is going to throw your weight over unless you strip armor.

[Zerberus]

Please remember that the OP is not a Dev, therefore this may or may not be the actual loadout of the mech. Ony the hardpoints and Variant name are truly known at this time

[Sephlock]

I was honestly hoping for something a bit more on the broken side, but this is just fine.

A fair point, but frankly, what other loadout could there possibly be, aside from maybe one with 2 slas replacing 2 of the mlas, with ams tacked on (or something along those lines)?

Just gives a hint of what the loadout for Sarah's Jenner will feature by default.

Thoughts?

Anyone know if this is 100% official?

[Zerberus]

^^ It is NOT official. The variant name and hardpoints are parsed from the MWO files by smurfy and can be therefore probably be accepted as "yes, that`y what it will be". The rest is 100% user theorized.

It is a realistic loadout, but in no way confirmed.

[FuzzyKismet]

Just for curiousity, how did you settle on this as the design?

If I were to buy this 'mech, the first thing I would do is take out a ton of Streak ammo, relocate the remaining ton to the head, use the free ton to stick another Heat Sink in the engine, and add the inexplicable remaining extra tonnage as armor.

It was on Smurhy, a site used to make a mech before you buy it. Its the JR7-D(S).

http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/

You'd be better off removing both the heatsinks and putting more ammo on, you'll get through 3 pretty easy. or adding 2JJs, or even lowering armor enough to get 1 JJ and 3 tons of ammo. You don't need HS with this mech, it runs cool enough, and the 2 DHS won't be adding very much cooling really. 1 ton of ammo is not enough.

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...8a15baae641a1a4

Don't forget to add Artemis, because it still affects the broken Streak missiles.

Actually, the point (other than honoring her memory, which is the primary point IMO) was that a significant portion of the proceeds be donated to cancer research by PGI, at least that is what the community was recommending in the multiple threads about it. The family actually specifically asked in the absolute first post of the "For Sarah" thread and Facebook posts (or their statements to PGI, which boils down to the same thing in this case) that we do not offer them any form of financial support, but donate to cancer research, instead.

AFAIK that has not changed

There is a different issue the build... with respect to the ammo placement.

If the DHS in the engine were removed and placed in the RT, at least the ammo would be properly crit buffered.

Remember that this was actually done in the Jenner-F Champion mech (for unknown/silly reasons), but putting ammo in a hard to shoot place w/o protection is still dumb. It needs to be crit buffered.

Hello everyone,

Please stay constructive. Cheers

lets use up that 0.5 tons that is not being used..

unless that was exactly what sarah's loadout was?


also is the [ s ] for special? or for sarah, because there might be future special mechs?

Edited by Tennex, 19 June 2013 - 04:27 PM.

[Lucy Cameron]

It shows up in mech stats currently as JENNER JR7-D(S). If you already have a Jenner JR7-D, it will share your stats (matches played, etc). Not sure if this is intentional or a bug.

Good question, my instincts tell me it stands for sarah, but I will verify that for you. So don't quote me on that... yet.

Uhmm well but why does need a 5 year old girl a BAP system really?

To use Streaks against ECM'ed targets.
