Yeah but you see what I was "hoping" for there don't yah?

In that case that only leaves the one side torso for an energy hardpoint since the other is full. Unless we get knee rockets.

There is no known varient with a torso mounted weapon sorry to say every one has the weapons in the arms according to the TROs.

PGI clearly stated that they're more than willing to make up variants if the need rises. They did it for the Enforcer.

There are less bad variants though. Torso mounted Jesus Box and 4 E hardpoints per arm. That might be salvageable.

Just those pesky Heavy Lasers.

So...what you're saying is that this is a pre-nerfed Clan mech?

Well, at least we know Paul won't be beating it with is Football Bat anytime soon.

[SgtMagor]

I cant understand why they would mount the ECM in the arm on the C variant, its bad enough to lose your weapons when your arms are snapped off, but you cant even hope to survive the match without ECM. the mech seems like a bullet magnet a team will focus fire on me when im standing next to a Daishi, they will ignore the assault mech shooting them to pieces go figure!

hahahahahah xD

I LOL'd.


Honesly I don't know what people expect from a 25 ton mech. Of course it's gonna be squishy. As far as I've been able to tell from the matches played since the patch it's better than the Commando. They seem to be much more tanky, and pack significantly more firepower.

To not have gorilla arms and MAYBE some ST weapons.

At least, that's what I'd expect from a 25t Mech.

this mech attracts more fire than it should for one reason.....it is easy to kill and therefore gives players a nice K/D ratio if they plug it.
If it had the hit box shield of the spider it would be ignored until it was legged (Legged light is a dead mech).

the problem is the mechs speed/firepower ratio, and because PGI have not launched this mech with any Quirks (somehow waiting for the entire IS mechs to get all of theirs done, whilst introducing two MC IS mechs with proper Quirks)

this mech should have been launched with clan quirks, then it would have given them a starting point.

I bet in the last competition there were a lot of clan teams drawing straws to see who brought light mechs (though 3 kitfoxes wth ECM were probably the norm)

poor TT mech, made into a worse MWO one....

Problems is with the pods. They should just be the boxy popeye arms. Not 3 omnipids added to the exterior. Seems like I add 2 lasers it adds 2 omni boxes add a missile for a third. Should just be one box arrangements in that box pod no larger or smaller.

It actually works pretty good as a lrm 10/15 missle thrower. Sure you can only put one on but I've managed to harass a Timber Wolf down with a lrm 10 and two machine guns. And it's pretty funny to see a Dire-Cow turn around pure rage in its eyes because missles where hitting him and then seeing the confused look when its a little Lynx and has to watch you scurry away giggling like a little kid.

I want a comic of this. Now.

[James Wirth]

The Mist Lynx is not that bad if one knows how to pilot it and to change and adapt its omnipod configurations.

[GalmOne]

It's not that bad becouse it has a clan XL but it's still the worst mech in MWO atm
Period.

And it's a bummer becouse i realy like the design

The only thing they could do omnipod wise (without inventing something) would be to add the F Variant RT, so it could mount ECM in the torso and still have weapons in each arm.
