Until the gargoyle is drawn into the Quirkening it is simply premature. Not a bad idea to change it, but it could be viable via the quirks without it.

That is a bad way to approach it. Quirks should always be the final touch, the cherry on top to overcome things that can't be fixed otherwise. This fix is literally changing a word in a HTML file.

Which is why both mine, and Fate6's suggestion do have specific windows that can be used, with skill.


I'm guessing those are in the thread somewhere.

Needs to be raised by another 10 tons, at least, ATM; IMO.


I hope they don't.

If the only solution for IS faction is to just throw more Assaults at clan Mediums and Heavies then balance is so bad that quirks on the whole have basically failed.

Even the extreme cases.


Will certainly be interesting when Clan faction has a viable, probably top tier, 30T mech to bring leaving 210T to spend elsewhere.

IIRC, the Warhawk's 3E arm had its negative quirk removed, but I could be totally remembering it wrong.



Pretty sure that was the same patch, or around that time anyway.

I havent bought MWO stuff way before it was cool, I didnt buy MWO stuff because I didnt like it.

But what I really want to know is why anyone should listen to you.

You are now the ridiculous Matthew McConaughey commercial of MWO.

Go do 25,000 forum posts somewhere else and by the time you do that no one else here will have that many.

You are now a caricature of yourself. now bye

I agree with OP's post.

I didn't buy clan wave 3 for the same reasons set out.

Actually...just had an epiphany..... I am actually completely unexcited about the Arctic Cheetah and Shadow Cat, even.

Dunno if it's just the mechs themselves...or realizing out of over 100 mechs on 2 accounts, I actually play...10?

Was never a big fan to begin with, TBH. Heck even in the MW4 heydey for it, I was an Uziel guy.

For best overall medium mech, Duncan Fischer's bet was on the Uziel. ;)

I still want a Duncan Fischer hero Uziel with AC/5 arms and a lower engine cap (because his fighting style is "guns guns and more guns" and his favorite gun was the AC/5). Optional voice over saying things like "KAPOW" when you get a kill.


Release it on the day that we eventually get a Solaris mode, if we ever do...

Heck, my favorite Clan Medium was always the Nova. And you see how well THAT turned out, lol.

It's quite possible.


With the recent "generic quirk" direction, and Russ seemingly OK with where balance is now and hedging CW by just adding tonnage to IS, you probably already own enough mechs that you can replicate almost anything another mech could potentially do already.

You people are trying to bait me to finish my montage of Nova poptart 1 shots ahead of schedule with this, just stop it!

Basically it's just like this excepted edited slimmer on repeat:

A poptarting mech, or any mech for that matter, cannot shoot what it cannot see. It's all in the positioning. :P


:) And a Mech that can't be seen (hiding) has little chance to return fire. ;)
