I like it so far with the exception of 1 thing that is a bloody sin:
How could you do away the Missile Doors?

What does the 20x2 mean?!

Possibly an explanation for the 40% via recognition that the IS LBX-10 sucks at least twice as much an any other IS autocannons...and thus is getting extra love?

I was thinking crit chance or internal damage, dealing 2 damage to IS instead of one, but then why is there 20?

I'd be insane to think it's a LB20x....right?


But I guess it could mean it's 20 times worse than the other PP FLD ACs.

Instead of two Tier 4 quriks at 20% each for two different weapons, the -D gets both of those quirks for the LB10. They're doing this same thing with the MG locust - where it's going to get two Tier 5 quirks for (ER)LLs.

it probably as not all that important for the Cent. But on true missile mechs like the Catapult that has the true doors, I can see it getting the quirks for armor or even structure on its arms.

Oh....that's less exciting.

Makes sense, though.

40% + 5% + 12% = 57%

2.5s - 67% = 1.07s...

Really? :o



That cent is going to need like 5 tons of ammo though, lol.

As a tier 4 mech it gets 4 quirks but 2 of those four quirks are spent on the LB10X - so it is getting a 20% tier 4 weapons specific quirk x 2.

Good choice.\

You have an excellent opportunity to create a new tree of Achievements entitled "The Specialist" for X number of kills or assists using ALL the quirks of a mech.

;) Helping!

Russ can you please confirm whether or not all cooldown modifiers are additive?

i.e. 25% (T5Quirk) + 5% (FF) + 12% (T5 Mod) = -42%

Missile doors are removed at least for now - the complexity of shifting doors to fit anything from 2-18+? depending on load out is not something we have the capability of doing currently in mechlab visual customization

Yes they stack up - math will become obvious especially with the range indicator when this launches

To be true, i alwawys was an Fanboy of the Cents. But if this Weaponarm comes true iam out. Sry to say this, but it looks BS to me. The Arm looks like an Powerplugin and not like a big bad Canon. It cripples the entry Base Design of the Mech.

Is the AH only getting 5 hardpoints like its original implementation did? The reason this matters is because the other C-Bill variants have 6 each, and some mediums have up to 7. Will it receive some hefty quirking if it turns out to have "too few" hardpoints?

How would I possibly pilot this 'Mech with all the blood draining out of my neuro-helmeted skull and into my erection?

Sidenote: AWS Battlefists. Quirk: You can actually hit things with them. Lol.
