And Kit Fox.
Can't run 2ac2 properly.

Though, with c arms now.....

Either way, 2 in the Torsos was good, and I'd like it back.

try placing an MG then an AC5 in that C-LA you'll be surprised what happens visually,

Please for the love of balance and sanity buff FF.

On both IS and Clan mechs, I think you should not be able to install FF without endo. Too many bad outcomes for many reasons, especially new players and bad hardpoints.

I do think Clan should have fixed endo or no upgrades if the mech comes that way or IS should get durable XLs and ermlas (lore be damned), and players should get used to the fact that they can not have the best of both worlds.

Clan units should not be able to choose
They have enough advantages hence the tt rule
However
Fero vs endo should NOT be an obvious choice
In the case of clans it should be something you would be happy to have
For IS it should be a hard choice, so hard infact you should consider dropping other items to get both
How tho im not sure

How about fero apply its % armour efficiency as % damage reduction? Or a bonus tonnage reduction if you take max armour ? Or perhaps increase its armour to ton ratio

Im not sure but for far to long has it been the second rate upgrade

I will have a look.

I'm loving having 4MGs with my LPL and 2MPL atm.

I checked the two CUAC2 build and its.... lacking.
A lot of getting it to work was running the left arm without armour, to allow for the weight of the backup ERML and ECM.
That allowed me 2xCUAC2 and 3T ammo, which is a little low, but doable.

Having the gun in the other arm means needing armour, which means losing something else.
Probably ammo, as its entire reason for being was a hidden harrasser and crowd control, invisible Autocannon shots freaking people out who think it's a bigger, badder mech.

1UAC2 or 5 simply doesn't provide the fire rate for that.

Hope this makes the June patches.
