Hmmm....
I actually like it. I actually did pretty well with it. They say there is someone out there for everyone. Maybe the same is true of mechs? I dunno. It just has the right mix of speed, armor and weapons to make me smile. I'm never going to swing matches with it, but I sure can scout, pop UAV's, get into and out of trouble at will, and dash in just in time to save a team mate or finish off a wounded enemy. Fun.

Replaced the small laser and a half ton of ammo on my C and had a 102 pt match first match. Not bad at all. The Prime is good at close support or hunter/killer on lights. The A is a mystery to me though, need to toy around with that.

yeah people say that about the Vindicator, too. I got a half dozen 6 kill matches that say otherwise.

I've just switched to a CLP and LRM 5. Looking forward to trying that out.
I also remember a post about true light hunter teams consisting of a light and a fast medium. I was running with a friend in his brand new Locust and we were doing just that. Again. Fun.

I hit it with 2x UAC5 + UAC2 + 4 ML.
It ran away.

I just wish they'd included the D, or at least a D arm omnipod to let people run the D configuration if they wanted.

you can run a Ghetto D, but I would prefer the arms to be synced. Though If I could slap D arms onto an A, I would probably run 4 ER Smalls and 1 LPL in the torso

Yeah, from what I can tell the cLPL went from decent to sexy in this patch, and cERSLs are finally viable again too.

Imagine what this thing can do with master skills and a little experience. Clam weapons + speed = fun.

I can't help but love underdog mechs.
It's definitely an underdog... The only thing that seems to do well is a long range build.

I have a pair of Vindicators in my bays. I'm a little surprised how much I can fit onto them. I'm interested in seeing what all I can do with the Ice Ferret.
It has VERY unique capabilities being the fastest clan mech. It can still deal lots of damage with one torso, and from far away. I've decided a conquest match tonight with it's speed. It's underrated as of now... we'll see in a few days how the community views it.
