I know a bit about the King Crab from TT and just refreshing myself with it over the last few days. As much as I do love this mech, do you think it will actually be a viable mech when it is released? I don't really care for many Clan Mech and as much as I want the KC, not sure if it's worth dropping $120/$240 to get a top tier package in order to get it. There are very few IS mechs I even like (whether in MWO or the TT) so it's not really about being an IS purist or anything.

If you do not want to drop the money, just wait for the C-Bill purchase of it and no having to forkout cash on an unknown.

The dual AC20 or Dual Gauss King Crab will be an effective answer to the the Dual AC/Gauss Dire Wolf configurations on the clan side

dual AC20 will be better than what the clans can do because of PP ACs, but dual gauss is strictly worse, as the DWF saves 6 tons for more ammo/secondary armament, and they both have the same amount of armor.

IS UAC has a ridiculous low fire rate right now.

The 1.1 to 1.67?

It was set to 1.5 for quite awhile.

All depends if they go against the lore and give the crab torso twist, like they have with many others in mwo. Games going more outside the lore every update to accommodate TTK.
