Time to bring out my money maker, Sparky w/ over 400k XP

[Deathsiege]

Why no yen-lo-weng?

[Colonel ONeill]

Good Luck!

Too bad it's the Cameron Star Warhorn again... would love something else.

And the Pirate's Bane could need better Quirks...

He was in the first Hero Event 2 weeks ago. You missed it.

[Wronka]

Dang, the only mech I have from that list is the BH... and man do I hate using that junk box. Might be better of just using a normal mech.

[AnimeFreak40K]

Decisions, decisions...

I have a Pirates' Bane and a La Malinche... and I've been tempted to pick up an Anansi for awhile...

Was in an earlier hero event.

[Fuggles]

Likely because it's supposed to be tomorrow that it begins. Sorry... my mistake, the percentage increase is only active for the actual event, not the Sale duration.

If you spider, the Anansi is worth it. If you don't spider...you should.

[Otto Cannon]

With base earnings so low, an extra 20% of that isn't worth much. I don't think many of the people who weren't going to play this weekend already will feel compelled to join in the event just for that.

[DarthHias]

My Peanut Butter is ready and loaded with 6 modules

Unfortunately won´t have much time this weekend as it´s my towns most important annual celebration and as tradition demands i´ll spend the weekend drinking beer

[Batch1972]

So anything for not running a hero mech and being a team player like the 1st one?

[Desintegrator]

Another great event !
We will see a lot of Boar Heads this weekend.

[cSand]

I have Friday night to flex my IV4 muscle


PREPARE YO A$$ES

I'll be right there with you. IV-Four is the only one I have on the list this week.

[Papapeshu]

Time to see if I can find my ol' Nancy under all that accumulated dust.

[Dawnstealer]

I might split time between my Peanut Butter and my Boar.
