i mean seriously? 60%+?

this is going to be my first drop since recent changes, have the new rewards turned mediums into cash cows or something?

or is it something else?

medium mech overload is causing to much rubber necking. slowing cues down so much I actually fell asleep waiting to drop and I woke up I was the last mech standing for a few seconds heh!

Yup, I finally got around to basic'ing my summoners. Might go all the way for Elite, even though I don't really like the chassis all that much. Still, at least the JJ boosts made the jumpjets actually tactically useful.

They did an unwanted and unnecessary nerf to some clan Mechs by adding 3 tons of non-removable jump jets

Some people that bought high $$ clan Mechs rage quit

Heavy Mech usage dropped like a rock

Also they gave a free medium (which I still haven't used) which boosted the medium numbers

in before the lock

There's also the tournament going on as well, people going for some of the lesser used meds charts i guess.

I have the new centurion and bought two shadowhawks and have only bothered to take he centurion out once and haven't touched he Hawks because I didn't want to wait to get in. Dropping In spiders is quick though :)

Yeah now with the JJ improvements you can Jump up better and then stare menacingly at the opponent since the Summoner has weak hardpoint options! :lol:


(5x SRM 6s works ok, a bit one dimensional though)

I've found pretty good builds with the summoner.

100% urbies. The sheer awesomeness of it would be likely to overload the entire internet, let alone pgi's servers.

People complain about the Summoner but one of my early MWO memories is when I first started I shot at a Summoner with my Jager

And he just turned like I was interrupting something ran over and pounded me into the ground

That’s when I first said I need a bigger gun
