So now that Quirkvember has well and truly set in, I revisited some of my old and dusty Dragon chassis. What followed was a phenomenal thrill-ride! Dragons feel like they are supposed to again, fast and hard strikers.

I hadn't found any new posts with builds to take advantage of their quirks, so I tried my hand at some and these are the results (caveat: I don't own a 5N or Fang yet, though that will certainly change with the upcoming sale).

Also, a camo scheme that works wonders is Phranken camo with the primary and tertiary colours black (or other dark colours), and the secondary colour bright orange (or other bright colours). Some scary Dragons right there!

DRG-1C "Glaurung"

DRG-1N "Smaug"

DRG-5N(C) "Hydra"

DRG-FANG "Fafnir"

DRG-Flame "Ryujin"

Enjoy

1 N is the most versatile of the bunch,if you dont want to use it as a AC5-boat,the 25 percent cooldown on other ballistics allow some nice hit and run setups.Like this
Or this

Big heavy slow sniper mechs that use terrain to there advantage and often stays behind assault mechs and LRM boats?

well before quirks in the chassis challenge,i ran the 5N 2 AC5:s and AC2.it did get my 9th place in that.
and i had several games with 900-1300 damage but no win,so it did not count...

That's what they are supposed to be.
Unless your looking at the Dragon II.

But what do I know. For me to call something fast it has to be withen the top 10 fastest of it's weight to be fast for me. (which the dragon isn't, nor the grand dragon, but the dragon II is.).
