Eh it's still another 100 tonner maxing at only 64Kph

64kph is pretty fast for a 100 tonner.
But I guess the Jupiter wouldn't reach that (should be locked at max 360 Engine = 58.3kph w/st, like the Atlas).

The Jupiter is not an omnimech, so you can upgrade the engine.

And it's not 54 kmh in MWO - it's 48.6.

Rotary AC5s are even cooler.
Especially since IS gets them sooner than clanners.

always found I preferred the 2s to 5s in MW4.

The Jupiter is (for me) the best looking mech from the dark age scum.

Has anything happened Quickdraws recently? I used to play one during CW1, have they had their quirks or sizing changed?

Edit: I'm a dunce

One what? Sorry if you are referencing another post, but without a quote or anything on this (that I can see) for context, I got no clue what you are actually asking.

well, they're quirked up the wazoo, but how they fit into drop decks, atm, IDK, having not really played much CW in the last month or two.

As some of you know, I'm a bit of a Nightstar fan. Thanks to some talented people, we've got some more visuals of how epic the Nightstar can be.

Ah k was just wondering if they're more competitive now, when I played it, it felt like a large medium with no durability. I don't remember whats the quirks used to be for them so was wondering if they had changed, I remember there was a suggestion of resizing.

yeah, they are getting rescaled too, as are pretty much every mech. That is probably going to be in the May Patch.

For solo play the Quickdraw quirks are pretty good. I just don't know how they blend into the current CW Meta, which highlights different strengths.
