What mechs do you guys think would benefit from having them added?

Off the top of my head:
Spider 5K
Anansi
The Arrow
Huginn
Ember (although it arguably doesn't need it)
One of the Jagers?
KGC-0000 (This build is actually a lot of fun...)

No need for quirks just make it a module.

On second thought the Locust-1V needs it ASAP. That thing is so bad now. Even loyalty boost and c-bill boost can't offset its performance.

[Juodas Varnas]

On anything that comes with MGs stock?

[Armorine]

There are few lights I'd be willing to give mg quirks too. If they clean up hit reg then go for it. Right now lights can be as dangerous as assaults. Though to be fair it's code not the mech.

[MikeBend]

Dump those quirks altogether, and up mg damage to at least 0,9 or better yet to 1,0. Problem solved.

agreed sure the erLL superquirk thing thing is nice and all but I would rather go wreak face with 4 mgs.

Can you cite evidence that this is something PGI is willing to do?

new Nova CT Quirks,
Prime= -20% ER-ML Cooldown(Fire your ER-ML faster now!)
A= +10% ER-PPC Velocity & Cooldown(Fire your ER-PPC Even faster now!)
B= -20% Ballistic Heat(tired of over heating due to your AC20 never again!)
S= +10% MG ROF(Fire your Fast Firing MG even Faster now!)
(if these happen to really be the Quirks i will stop Playing for 6 months)
(and Cry for that time until my return, 6 months of Crying, please plant Crops with my Tears)

MGs should certainly be stronger by themselves, but there's nothing wrong with some variants getting even betterer MGs than the baseline.

As unlikely as adding mg quirks to more mechs.

I agree, but my point is - fix weapon first, then quirk accordingly. Not that anyone will massively boat mg, if the damage gets upped 10%-20%. Still a very niche weapon, still bad in packs less than 3, just a tad harder hitting, thats all.

[sneeking]

Mmmm huginn with 25% missile and stacking 25% srm4 with srm cooldown5 then add ballistic 10% and stacking 10% machine gun rof with mg rof5 module

That may just be the thing that gets me to put guns and armour back into my huginns arms lol

[kapusta11]

Why not just buff MGs in general? I mean, they suck now.

And the PB too.

[El Bandito]

The Ember longs for the day it used to crit people like no-one's business. Stupid quirk ***** FS9-A, stealing its thunder.

Now only if we could convince PGI to make 4MGs on a Spider to be as effective as.... 6MGs...

[Firelizard]

While they're at it, maybe they can fix the flamers too?

I know I know, crazy talk. But a pyromaniac can dream right?

[Sorbic]

The Pirates Bane really needs it. Right after they dampen that blinding flash the MG causes. Good lord...

Of course I would rather they just buff MG's instead of adding quirks. Right now they universally suck. Making them suck less on a few mechs would, imo, be short sighted.
