The tile says it all.

Adders have nothing going for them. A mech that has 35 ton class armor, is very slow, has no JJs, has no ecm...nothing.

Ferrets only occupy a medium slot. (gotta go fast)

I think something like this will make them a little bit less bad

Adders:
-20% energy heat (prime arms)
-20% ERPPC heat (prime arms)
+10% speed buff
armor/structure buffs to all components
-25% missile cooldown (A arms)
faster accel/stop rate

Ferrets:
Give it -100% heat reduction on everything
200% more range on everything
50% cooldown on everything
armor buff on every component
...
...
and even then it wont be a threat.

With PGI reducing the isERPPC quirks to 25% aside from the Cicada, the best we could hope for is 30%, I think.


Ferret is out of omnipods, we'll have to see. 5 SPLs doesn't sound terrible, just not great.

I'm anxiously awaiting the Clan quirk pass. PPC quirks for the Adder sound nice.
And my mist lynx could use something...that poor 25 ton gundam with 7 tons of locked equipment.

3 tons JJ's, 1 ton bap, 3 double heaksinks?

Those 3 DHS have to be there, its engine is too small. So even if they weren't fixed, you'd have to add them anyways.

pls no 2x 20% quirks again, this will make the adder a no brain 2CERPPC choice only mech. It's basically the same TDR debacle again. Give it 25% heat dissipation, this is something ALL builds profit from. and No weapon s favoured by this.

ferrets will always be losers, every mech without E hardpoints in Torsi that can also not mount proper ballistics in torsi are lost mechs.

I need to say, survivability in my adder feels fine, its alight yet not that squishy. Sure a FS9 is more tanky, but mostly because broken hitreg, we whould not buff mechs because of a broken feature.

I will never get tired by saying that Lynx only need F omnipods.
Then it will be fine..... waiting the cheetah.

what are its f pods?

The F would be the 4 E arms, with a RT mounted Jesus Box.


The G is 4 MGs+1E per arm, with 2 leg mounted lasers(which would both fit in the RT).


Both would give the Lynx a meaningful purpose.

Adding the later pods would be amazing for pretty much all the clan mechs. Though they benefit a good amount from the later weapons as well (MG Arrays, Heavy Lasers, ATMs).

As for the Ferret, it would be nice to see the hitboxes adjusted, it seems to suffer from the same glass jaw problem it had in MW4. I do enjoy its speed though, its nice to play a clan mech that goes over 100kph without speed tweak just wish it was better optimized for its tonnage (ie smaller engine).
