Kitfox has been useless since its equipment got locked and after ERML got a global heat increase IMO.

Its a terribly bloated and slow light, but at least it has ECM ..

Yeah, PGI swung the nerfbat a little too wide there. They were aiming for the Timber S, but the Kit didn't need or deserve that. I miss my dual UAC2 build, especially now after the UAC buffs :(

JJ: 6 vs 6 (max)

And actually, the Shadow Cat has better jump jets than the Kit Fox too!

Class IV > Class V

Hahaha! :D

the Kitfox is AMAZING if you much prefer hitting the small hill or rock in front of you instead of the mech you are targeting

that's the reason i love the Victor too

Kit Fox is still going to be a much better support mech than the Cheetah or the Shadow Cat.


Seriously. Triple. AMS.

(and if you're helping the big blob speed isn't going to be much of an issue anyway)


It would be fun if ECM changes (crosses fingers) make bringing ams a necessity. Make the cute fox a dedicated anti-missile machine. Doesn't need to be fast.

I've ran this, and gotten tons of damage, though ammo ran dry a little too soon for my taste so I swapped in two SRM4's

Shadowcat maybe more a threat to the Ice Ferret, a mech I commonly find and is proven viable in the battlefields of Community Warfare.

cSPL lasers are very cool, only 3 heat each. I think 6 will for sure be fine.

Don't forget the -10% Pulse heat, and -5% laser duration you can grab with the Cheeta's E shoulders and arms.

No not everyone can afford wave 3 and some people are really good in the Kit fox.

I doubt the S Cat will replace the Kitfox. Tonnage saved by taking the Kit Fox is pretty relevant in CW.

But then we have the Arctic Cheetah. If the Kitfox dies, the Arctic Cheetah will be the murderer.
