With the JJ nerf i don't think it needs to move with the same agility as an Atlas

Agreed, with the JJ OVERnerf, this mech has become a giant liability having had its mobility not just halved, but quartered.

Can't fit that on a Dragon Slayer... :(

I bought the VTR - DS during the Tournament Series 50% off sale, saved it for later (was working on other mechs), and now want to do something nonmeta with it only to realize that PGI's nerfed it into oblivion. The 3rd actuator on the right arm prevents me from mounting an AC20, it only has two missile hardpoints (no SRM boat), and the jump jet nerf ruins the great appeal to the Victor (an assault mech with jump jets in every variant)! Now, when I see a Victor while piloting my Protector (unless it's a meta), I know I don't have to worry at all because I can outslug it, while matching it for maneuverability and armor. I can't say I'm more disappointed in any other Hero Mech I've purchased. The Victor was one of my favorites, now I just like it because it's my old classic assault from MW4.

Just bought myself the Victor 9B. It moves as slow as an Atlas, and lacks the punch to compete with anything. This is a terrible nerf. This is another instance of overbalancing. PLEASE fix the Victor so we can actually use the mechs we invest money in!

Just sunk 2500 GXP into the basic twist speed skill. Really helped a lot, but the Victor's nerf is still ridiculous. Please fix.

It was his position at the time to assess VTR balance after 3x4 was added.

Yes, at least the Turn Speed rates. Those are overdone for an 80 ton mech.

Oddly I have not used my Victors since long before the nerf. I never saw it as being that much better than other mechs, but I don't jump-jet to fight. Also, in all those videos I saw all anyone was doing was jump-jetting to add some deflection. None of them were jump-sniping which never works very well in MWO. imho. Before Radar Dep, you just lobbed LRMs at jump-jetters.

Keep the Victor nerfed like this is so Goddamn un-f-believable.

Seriously LOL @ the sense it's supposed to make having an 80 tonner move like 100 tonner.
