Call me silly for even playing this mech when I can just ezmode a 4N, but I'm noticing that the Highlander seems MORE fragile after this last patch.

Any way to confirm that the structure buffs were entered with the right sign in front?
I'm finding my torsi are getting to red awfully quickly when it doesn't feel like they should.

I just went and reviewed all the Highlander quirks that were added and they are correct. No negative values to structure on any of them.

LOL, its only 10 point buff, how much do you think thats going to stop in a world full of 60 point lolphas every 3.5 seconds on every shot from every mech everywhere?

Heres a hint, 10 armor is only 1 single Clan Large laser shot. And besides, it says Structure, that is your internals after the outer armor is gone. But still, its not much really. Its nice, but its not much.

It just needs heat generation quirks to offset the RIDICULOUS amount of heat coming from 4 JJs. I mean it already costs 8 tons, AND you have to put in more heatsinks? Ugh, that is what is killing the HGN right now. The mobility is nice, but the JJs are too hot and too sluggish.

Thanks PGI appreciate the check. Figured that 10 pts of structure don't do much, but if anything seemed more fragile than I was used to... but thinking back I've been mostly playing Stalkers since quirks so it could just be an effect of TTK going down since the quirkage.

It's a start. With a combination of feedback and data thinks can and will be adjusted where warranted.

Not to mention that structure can be crit so those 10 points are worth less than armour.
