The TDR-9S was designed to hold 1 ER PPC, stock.
Yet the TDR-9S sports a smaller frame and better cooling. The result? 3 ER PPC Tbolts all over the place, and very few 3 ER PPC AWS-9Ms.
Justice I say! The mech with the biggest ER PPC cooldown buff should be the mech designed for it!

This ignores that the TDR occupies a heavy slot, and weighs in at a nifty 65 tons. While the Awesome is an 80 ton assault, arguably the weakest category of assaults, with a bigger frame, and comparatively bad hitboxes. (The TDR has high energy mounts on the STs) In CW especially, the TDR will be the favorite even if the Awesome had 40% quirks. Simply because of the advantages of the frame.
What the awesome needs more than any of the other buffs, is a geometry update. The model needs to be made thinner.

No. The Warhawk is a stronger assault mech.

If it'll ever find its way into the ECM-protected offices in Vancouver, there might be hope yet.

I'm actually agreed here. Swap the 0M and 9S buffs to ER PPCs and it should actually balance them out. It honestly seems like they've been reversed this whole time. Maybe give 9M a 40% since its an Assault and could have more heatsink space and tonnage. Don't wanna give it some crazy lot heat do we?

100% agree. As others have stated it is MIND BOGGLING that they gave the 50% buffs to the 9S, when the 9M is clearly the mech that should have recieved them. Also in terms of balance it would be less manueverable and a larger target (not to mention the hideous hit boxes).
And in truth the 50% bonuses are just ridiculous in themselves. I mean did they seriously think massively overpowering a single mech was going to "balance" the game ?!?
*Facepalm*

Be careful, you'll break the illusion that only clan players are upset about the Thunderbolt 9S.

More Thunderbolt whine. Enough already.
