Fine with me just up leg armor, I'd rather have an extra ton in leg armor than be cted all the time.

Yea, I think they added the hip hitboxes to the legs instead of CT. It should help the Cataphract a tiny bit, it's CT was a bit squishy. They did the same to the Catapult, but I have yet to really notice much of a difference.

I think only the folks whom strip leg armor will notice the change. I stack armor whenever possible and I barely get my legs in to orange on both my phracts and pults. I could just be rather lucky though.

I usually run ~52 points of leg armor regardless. Anything less and your prone to getting legged.
Back in the day I used to be able to get away with 44, but then people started to learn how to play.

Downsize to a xl335!? What do you carry in your phracts, machine guns and medium lasers.

Actually no.

XL340- 2 AC10 2 mediums 1JJ
XL340- Gauss 2 PPC 1JJ
86.5 KPH is so good in a phract

2JJ+2uac5 or regular+ 2 ppc and max armor. Not going to get that with anything bigger than a 300. No need to go so fast on a poptart. The only build I like with a faster engine might be the dual lbx with 4mlas a xl320 and max armor.

I wonder how the people across the pond are handling things...
European, Aussie, and Asian 'Phract pilots, do you find yourself getting legged a lot?

No more than usual, the chest is still very much a focus in my three Phracts. Only time I see significant leg hits is when jumping/poptarting.
