A single Adder? That means I will have to grind for 2 more (with no option to sell back the engines). At least the RVN-3L was something I actually was interested in. Oh well, I'm sure I can throw in some CLRMs and make it work.

I wonder what kind of gigaquirks they're bound to give it on patch day right after this event ends...


Whatever they are, my body is most certainly ready.

I will *always* like posts with this gif.

LOL at whatever that is(what is it?)

I know I am in the minority, but I have solid performance from my Adders. IMO, it will be like the "tier 5" T-bolts for me, where they take a mech that is just fine for me and pour cans of whupp-ass into the reactor.

plastic nee-sayn I believe. probably spelt it wrong.

[Ursh]

They'll quirk the adder so erppcs pass through terrain and hit mechs, instead of passing through mechs and hitting terrain...

[Andi Nagasia]

hope they allow Adder Pilots to upgrade to remove the Flamer,
1.5 million C-Bill Cost possibly some an additional EXP cost if necessary,
would Love to have 5MPL Adder / 1ER-LL 4SRM6 Adder / 1Tag 4SSRM4 Adder,

The Adder the most adorable mech we got in this game.
the Kit Fox looks like a cube with legs.

its like a baby direwolf.

Can call the Adder the badder all you want, but at the end of the day, its a beast.

the addr is beautiful, the direwolf not. how dore you to compare them `o´

Let me sum up my thoughts to people who care...

Do you really want a Badder?

At least the Cute Fox is cute.

It'll also get wrecked by any competently built Adder. ECM and AMS don't stop lasers, PPCs or SRMs in case you hadn't heard.

[MikeBend]

I hope scoring conditions are anything but 1 kill, 1 assist, 1 win. I just dont have enough time for 50 games on weekend.

[Bleary]

These kill events are wrecking weekend gameplay. Folks play reckless and kill steal like starving vultures.

Wouldn't mind an Adder. They're cute little ********, and they don't play like many other 'Mechs. But I hope to God it's not structured like the last 'Mech challenges.

[Insects]

I know its just a play on Adder, but hopefully it also means a different scoring formula.
Probably be the +20 points for assist, +10 for a kill, 180 or whatever for a point one again.

AMS does actually shoot down SRMs.

No, it doesn't. Only lock-ons.

The kit fox looks like a swollen nipple on legs.

It shoots down streak SRMs, not regular SRMs.
If it actually does shoot down SRMs it's so ineffective at it that I simply never noticed it.

[Kaeb Odellas]

Adder event?

MAXIMUM OVERmeh

[Soul Tribunal]

They need to make it like the Halloween Grab bag or Christmas Stockings.
Fixed score that is reasonable, so that way people can go back to supporting and helping each other. Not 12 mechs chasing the first light they see in hopes to get the kill...

step 1, Give out Adders
step 2, Wait a week
step 3. Quirk Clans making the Adder tier 1
step 4, allow Adder to remove flamer
step 5. Laugh evilly as people have to grind for the Adder they sold.

Unfortunately for this plan, I've already mastered them.

Badder was fun, but still bad.

I can admit the Adder when used correctly would beat a Kitfox, but ECM is still better overall for the team to get into position for what you need to do and where you need to go.

The Wubber is actually pretty good, considering the alternatives...

It indeed does shoot down SRMs, and several AMS do a good job of stopping "stream of SRMs" like that from a Huginn with chainfire SRM4s.

The best instance that I could find was when I ran my Huginn with all SRMs a few months back. I ran directly into an Atlas-K and thought, easy kill!

He had dual AMS equiped, and I could barely get my SRMs to hit him. I had to switch over to fire both at the same time in order to even do enough damage to justify him as a target. I'd estimate that maybe 1-2 missiles out of the 4 even reached him on chainfire, with the rest being shot down.

SRMs seem to like being launched in a big death cloud.
