Ha my Warhawk eats Locusts as a snack daily

I have tried most of the lights but never a Locust. This thread really makes me want to try one out. Is this the peer pressure Momma warned me about?

Probably.

I will just say this:

If you are new to lights, Stay AWAY. Even with quirks, this mech is hard mode turned on 11. Once you feel comfortable with lights, and think you can handle a little more challenge in your life. THEN, you should definitely give the li'l bug a shot.

Speaking of achievements:

WHY CAN'T I GET 12 ASSISTS ANYMORE!!!! I literally got a match with 12 assists, the night before the implemented the achievement system. Now, I can't get 12 for the life of me.

i finally got mine ...in my Locust, a couple weeks ago. 3M i think it was pre-quirks w/ a 3ML never overheat set up. since then i've gone to the SPL quirk approved version. saw two guys on the enemy team both get 12 assists in the same match last weekend.

I have not killed a whale in a locust, but I have been knocking em down solidly in my stately Commando's.

If Iraqiwalker describes locusts as hard mode on 11, by my estimation your TDK would be about an 8 Or, to put it another way, my best round in the TDK was 350ish damage and I regularly do in the mid to high 200's my best round ever in a locust so far is 130ish, but they are FUN

Initiate reverse, and counter the direction you're turning to catch them circling you. They'll be going so fast that you'll have a shot at them, and just one shot is usually enough to scare them off. If not, you backing yourself to a wall keeps them from being able to circle you, forcing them to confront you directly. If you're in an environment with lots of cover, try to get a teammate to come help you out, because the more cover they have, the more difficult it is for you to defend yourself.

If you're a light with lots of cover, take satisfaction at tearing them apart playing peek-a-boo if/until support for them arrives. If there isn't any cover, but you still wish to engage, see if you can elevate yourself to above the wall they've got their back to. If they're on a hill, get atop that hill, a building, get atop that building. They'll have to expose their rear to turn around and get a shot at you.

I like locusts, properly cooked of course ~Grins. Actually I LOVE locusts. The new Hero is a lot of fun to play, I've only played it once as yet. But I have to admit that my score in it was not what I expected. I can't wait to to change my configuration and give it another go!

I salute you locust pilots. They are truly a Hero's Mech. o7
