although it is possible to have rounds like this:




It is very challenging (and rare) and you basically have to have a lot of luck, good teammates, and pick your shots carefully, remember, that basically a gaus or ac20 crit's you and 1 more LL kills you...it's not that easy in these lil guys, and more often than not you just get jacked up...

Yes a locust got three kills and practically did as much damage as a Firestarter which people are saying is OP.

Firestarter 35 tons vs Locust 20 tons.

Excuse me why is my big toe doing almost as good as my left fist?

Also take note the little blighter did more damage and got more kills than the 100 ton Dire Wolf 3 slots above it.

Need the IIC version with a 300xl....true terror and the clan scout of choice as it is the most insanely fast thing ever.

I legitimately can't tell if the OP is joking / being satirical.. trolling, or is serious.

I hope it's one of the first options.

Locusts have improved with the Quirk Passes.
They're still very unforgiving to pilot, but they can stand with the other lights for the most part now, and pilots who did well in them before, can do even better now.

They need, no nerfs and are in a pretty good place right now.

Kit Fox with ECM is OP!

Just bought the S, so working to unlock Basics, and been running it with one C-LPL and C-MPL, five wins and seven kills in seven matches!


At any rate, kudos for a nice match!

My highest-damage game with the Locust so far:


Was the last of my team alive. But then the Streakcrow and the Thundercrutch teamed up against me. Was too much for the Locust.

But the LCT is hardly OP. You can get good results with a bit of luck, but it is unreliable. In many games I die the moment the first enemy lays eyes on me. And therefore often end with less than 100 damage.

The Locust is like a rocket-powered bicycle: a hell of a ride, but easy to crash and burn.

IMO all lights should be nerf via size increase. They do and tank too much damage,

Lol, 8/8 gr8 b8 m8, would troll again.

Only if you agree to only pilot light mechs from this point forward.
