ECM= target

This mech is too slow compared to lights that have ECM and doesnt have enough armor like a DDC.. It is going to be a target every time its on the map. Not sure why this mech didnt come with endo.

It definitely takes getting used to, it feels a lot heavier than it is, and it somehow manages to make 81kph feel pretty slow.

Hitboxes are bad, CT can easily be hit from any angle and yet it STILL manages to make its side torsos giant targets from the front and rear.

On the other hand, 24 tons of clan weapons with respectable armor and ECM is pretty good, though I'm still trying to figure out the 'best' build for me. 2x 10-series ACs is possible but you have very little ammo, I'd say go with a 20 or gauss and lasers.

It's far from doa however. Almost makes up for the mist lynx and ice ferret actually.

The fact people are actually saying this is DoA is why I take literally everything posted on these forums with a fistful of salt. Everything that isn't invincible with Dire Wolf level firepower is bad to these people.

Everything is always DOA. People want 60tons of weaponry, ECM, jumpjets and at least 4 of each hardpoint in every omnipod. Also, it must go a minimum of 100kph. ALSO, it must not be able to be hit. The hitboxes have to be absolutely impervious to any and all damage over 12pts per hit.

After all, I think 5% made all the difference in the world for the Dire Wolf.


Yeah, now the DW has its sides easily cleaved off when it used to be able to torso twist to protect its large CT. Great improvement. Just like the community's feedback managed to improve the Orion by making its side torsos just as oversized as its CT.

Not having much luck in mine. It gets cored out in seconds just about each and every match. Honestly feel my the awesome has better CT hitboxes.

10 matches so far and only one was actually decent. Most matches I am not even breaking 200 damage when my average on most mechs is closer to 500. :(


OH FFS this guy and his wihining and complaining and bitching, STOP ******* PLAYING AND DO EVERYONE A FAVOR and stop posting.

I do agree with this. I rarely pilot mine these days (long before the change) BUT when I'm targeting a DWF, I usually take out the torsos. Much easier than attempting to core. Kinda sad tho really, DWFs really weren't all the sturdy IMO to begin with.

Nah there IS a bug with the CT that's making it core too easily.

So yeah since it's just arrived, it is DOA... until fixed.

Summoner without JJ's, and significantly better hardpoint options is how I view the HellBringer.

That or as the Dragon's evil twin.

You'll know that players have given up when they try to turn it into a missle boat, havn't seen that yet, so there is hope :D

Original poster must be high as ****. I'm running joke builds and still doing great in it.

If it had 4 more tons of pod space from endo and FF armor, it would be nearly as op as the Timberwolf.

As it is, it can probably look forward to a few beneficial quirks down the road, even with the newly buffed ECM available on all 3 variants.

Now the !ECM! floating above your head might be attracting more hate than other heavies.

I am putting in a request for a refund on clan wave 2... Mist and Loki are worthless... Both are DOA.
