The events are OK, but I wish they would make the reward MECHs a little more viable. Raven 3L past glory is pretty much that. Currently a 2nd or 3rd Tier. It and all the Ravens (Except maybe the HUGIN) could use a little more love in the quirks department.

Same with the now reward ADDER. Needs some major quirks to make it worth using.

Just my opinion.

Clans will get a quirk pass in the future. I think the adder will get some love, too. I'm holding on my Adders, as I like playing them even now. 2xMPL, 2xSSRM6 or 4xSSRM6 are pretty mean setups for the ADR already.

Idk those mechs are still good they arent as OP or lagshields like the ones everyone else uses, Adder can wreck stuff up if piloted well, just like every mech.

IS ECM Lights 3L has to compete with:

Pirate's Bane (15 less tons, less hardpoints, but 170ish kph)
COM 2D (10 less tons, less hardpoints, slightly slower, 'better' hardpoints)
SDR 5D (5 less tons, less hardpoints, but slightly faster, has jumpjets)

Tier 2-3, you say?

Yes, compare to Firestarter, or Jenner, Ravens are not nearly as viable currently. So, yeah, 2nd or 3rd Tier.

Ah, that must be why we see so many Jenners instead of Ravens and Spiders. Oh wait.

ECM Lights > Non-ECM Lights, only reason Firestarter is an exception is the funky hit registration.

Just saying, if you are going light, most likely the Raven is not your first or second choice, currently.

As far as the Firestarter is concerned, I would say the amazing quirks and weapons loadouts make it number one.
