Ppc nerf and hitreg is so bad now all the lights are back. Im seeing commandos running around now lol

[KhanCipher]

i'd bet ya that there wouldn't be as many lights after this win challange is over.

[Monkey Lover]

Just farming for wins?

[Kilo 40]

I'll probably finish leveling my kitfoxes tomorrow. I may even buy an adder when they come out since I'm loving clan lights as pocket lrm boats.

never could get competent with IS lights though.

Lights are fun because of all the LRMS. ECM and Narc make a huge difference in games now.

ya but nothing has changed other than hit reg and pcc over the last few weeks. Only way im killing lights anymore is back to making a "light hunter" and running them down

SPIDER-5D is back in service!

Earlier today I saw a Stormcrow boating Streak-6s with a Tag-- that was probably the scariest sight I've seen all week in my Raven. I ran far away and resolved not to come anywhere near him! (that's gotta be fun as hell though, dumping 30 Streaks into some poor Locust).

haha ya I did 5x6streaks in a summoner. Lights just ran away before I could kill them. It takes about 3-4 rounds to take out a leg. So you're looking at almost 30 seconds for a light to pick up on its a bad idea to stay around.

For now im finding srms are taking out legs really good

Does artemis tighten the groups of Streak 6s? Streak 4s seem to have a tighter patern, run cooler, and fire quicker, I think. Regardless, the streak 6s are fun chain firing them. They really make the receiving mech rethink things. I've used 4 of the streak 6s on my timberwolf just for grins and giggles.

[Monkey Lover]

streaks are setup to never hit the center. There is no way to group them smaller. Artemis on streaks is said to decrease lock time at no cost of weight.

Streaks 4 are cooler and run faster by design. But you also get 2 less missiles.

[M0rpHeu5]

It is fun and deadly. In frozen city I instapopped a Kitfox. I like to hang around the assaults or LRM boats and provide anti light support.

When they release new Mech Factory map, you will see a lot more light and medium Mechs.

Ambush and hit and run heaven.

[Rhaythe]

Real light pilots never left.

[SaltBeef]

I ran my commando 2d quite a bit last night. Got killed in bad descisions quickly and also did a lot of killing. Hit or miss but is capable of 2 of 3 kills a match if I play smart and a little help from ECM and Radar DEPRIVATION w/o those would of gotten smoked quicker. and the leg boost one ..... shock absorbance.

Isn't the game 3/3/3/3 already?

In theory. That goes out the window when 52% of the player population queues up in their Timber Wolves.
