I'm pretty sure they don't like the sexual implications of the verb definition. The filter wouldn't let me use pretty much anything I could think of as an alternate equivalent, lol. Was going to say, "Blahblahblah" definition, and basically copy/pasta that.

Congratulations
What's next on your light mech hit parade?

not sure, I'm going to stick with the locust for the most part. I seem to have the most fun in it though I picked up a huginn so I'm looking at ravens.

but the 1E & 3S are just too much fun.

For me I really don't know. My 3s Locust is mastered and the rest are in the teens working thu the 21k exp for the master unlock and my kitfoxes are all full basic and I am working on speed tweak now.

Already have a mastered Ember, founders jenner, 4x and 3L raven, 5d and 5k spider and my deaths knell.

So I guess once my locusts and kitfoxes are done there is no light mech goals for me as I dont care for the adder =( so I will just work on my Arrow while waiting for new lights and hero mechs.

Oh and drive locusts.

all right! all locusts mastered.

damn i'm still about 5k away in the 1M and 7k away in the 1E to get all five mastered. now i think my D button on my keyboard is getting stuck because the last day or so i've found myself spinning in circles when trying to go straight. so basically a death sentence in my Locusts

Mount 2 Flamers, max engine, max armour, max jump jets, and just sorta... see what happens.

(That or a TAG, ML, BAP and UAV to rake in XP bonuses)

On the topic of a hero Locust I mocked up this in MS Paint via Smurfy

And of course it is the max engine so you could always drop the engine to a 170-180xl engine for more firepower or armor if you wished to.


Well thats my idea for a hero locust anyway, and it is different to the other FIVE locust variants we already have.

It should be called 'The 1%' (or maybe .01%). It gains quirks of 1% to every stat, including a 1% XP bonus and an extra 1% cbill bonus. It also starts each match at 101% health. Or replace all the 1%s to .01%, seeing a Mech with 100.01% health would be pretty hilarious.

Sounds good. Still holding on to mc for a hero locust or spider

[Bigbacon]

the hero locust will be all leg armor and a tag.

What playing a Locus feels like to me.

100.001%?

Now that's taking it too far, it's just silly! That would be an excellent Locust hero quirk though.

I hated it. Sniping means you get one shot by return fire as usual. And the dps is pitiful for brawling. I found 1LL 2ML for the same weight to be so much better.

Alright, I go to Smurfy's and find some crazy Dual/Triple Gauss Jager / Pult / Ilya fan created the most insane Locust ever so which of them is responsible for this madness? I ran some low armor on my LRM Locust but never this and, of all ACs, a UAC?

[Bigbacon]

i don't understand those kinds of builds....

I am definitely going to try that.

that's what i go with. little bit more range and punch with the LPL than the traditional locust builds of ML/SL/SLP/MLP and SL just for when you're heat is running high but you still want to pew pew.

as for the hero Locust all i want is one quirk "Legs do not take damage 2 seconds into the match when a friendly mech stomps past you at the startup"
