This topic is meant for less lore aware players who would like to know which variants exist within the timeline for the 4 resistance mechs until PGI releases the mech details.

Panther:
Basically we have just 3 variants available as of now, if we include the 3051 PNT-10K. None of the variants show major differences, so the differentiation will come from the quirk system, which is fine by me. Since the basic speed of this thing is really really low, i don't expect it to be as quick as the other 35t IS mechs. I hope they give it at least a 250 max engine rating, so it can have the advantage of 10 engine heatsinks, which will be necessary as i expect it to be used as dual PPC or dual LL sniper mech. I fear a little that they will give it a max engine rating of ~220, but lets hope not. By the way, did you notice that the green head window is the mouth of a panther, with the eyes right above it? Took me a while to notice. Really cool design!

Enforcer:
Didn't expect this one to be honest with you, but i'm quite happy with it. 50t mech with ballistics and JJ =) Not particularly fast, so i expect a max engine cap of 275 for the 4R versions, but more for the the 5D. There are actually only 2 regular versions available as of 3050, so i expect the Daniel version of the 4R to be included as well.

For the 3rd i need to guess...

Grasshopper:
Our second 70t mech for the IS side. It's mostly about energy weapons and JJ, but why not. My knowledge of Heavy mechs is very low, so i don't know what to expect of this, but looks interesting to me...

Zeus:
Wow, looks cool, doesn't it? Unlike the others, there are many variants available for this one. There is also one version available within the timeline that has a binary laser cannon. Not sure if PGI is going to implement this one, but i don't see any technical difficulties since it's just a linked dual laser with crappier damage per weight or heat, but 150% damage of a large laser for only 1 energy slot.

Panther does appear to have a 250 engine cap


As shown in the images
Enforcers have 260 for the 4R
325 for the other 2

[Bigbacon]

want to play with my panthers!

luckily I have some 240 and 245 xl engines laying around.

Which is a good thing for the Panther =) I think they did a good job in separating the variants through different hardpoints. Will be harder to play than the other 35t mechs, but with speed tweaked 123kph it might be a good mobile energy sniper mech.

Enforcer 4R i was hoping for a 275 like all the Hunchbacks and Centurions with STD 200 engine, but maybe they think the JJ make up for that... Maybe they do, when compared to the Hundbacks/Cents, but compared to all the clan mechs, which go only 3kph less, i don't know... 5D will be great. 5P seams totally made up ^^ but i'm fine with that.

OR, you could use the 250XLs from the Enforcer 5*. At least i will!

[theta123]

Zeus, grasshopper and enforcer are looking very tasty. As for the panther, well, we will see. i'm getting this next month for sure

5P is totally made up.
Enforcer has only 2 canon variants
(3 if you count a Yenlo-like "Hero")

[Scout Derek]

Now I'm going to have some fun with the Panther when it comes out. Er large laser(x2?), a 240 or 250 XL engine, and a whole lot of jump jets to get around.

[Inflatable Fish]

on the PNT-10K, I'mma try with 2xMPL, ASRM4/1t, 2xAMS/2t, XL250, FF, Endo, 6 JJs

the ENF-5D, it's 2xML, ERLL, Endo, 5 JJs, and either LB10X with XL280, or UAC/5 with XL300.

fun times ahead!
