3 Tons of fixed JJ's and 1 Ton for a fixed Active Probe is just too much for a 25 ton mech. The Lynx would be a real bane on the battlefield if we could shift around this lost tonnage.

I love the Lynx and it's concept, I love the look of it and I really have fun driving it. Those lost tons impact it's performance seriously, though. There are Lynx pilot which drive it with good performance but for serious fights it's nigh-worthless. 4 more tons would change *alot* on the Lynx and would make it too a respectable mech, imo.

The fixed equipment was introduced to balance out clan-tech but I don't see it a reasonable move. And the Timber still is up there in the meta. I'd like to see this move reconsidered.

Fixed jumpjets? Meh. Fixed active probe? That's just silly, and needs to be changed.

I really think that PGI should consider unlocking equipment in clan mechs and unlocking FF/ES during the clan quirk pass before tossing quirks out willy-nilly. There's a lot of mechs that simply need some small loadout changes in order to be viable as opposed to massive global buffs.

There's some sense in this.

...and DWF doesn't need ferro, it already hurts for crits.
