Raise your Mist Lynx's hand if you have suffered enough.

And also 40+ kph faster! And with only a marginal hit to payload!

To be specific, it goes from 6.5 tons (MLX) to 5 tons (FMH)...but if we count JJs in there, then it's technically 9.5 tons for the MLX (both mechs have a 1 ton item in the form of CAP and MASC, respectively, so that adds 1 ton for both of them).

What's really sad is that the FMH has an extra Trudub over the MLX, even though normally it's the larger mech that gets more Trudubs...sub-250 engines are so amazingly borked...

I would drive the sh*t out of the Dasher. It's so fast it doesn't even need the jets and even 4x C-SPL will be brutal on something so quick.

Well I know I'm planing to buy an Arctic Cheeta and replace the Myst Lynx in my dropdeck with an ECM laserboat that can do the job the Myst Lynx was trying to do, but was failing miserably..

We had some good times, my Little Fang and I... it did its job during the Tukayyid event.. but now.. its just so obsolete.. it will gather up lots of dust and end up beeing sold to free up the mechbay..

Sad really.. but such is the world.. out with the old, in with the new...

I'd love to play a Firemoth. They're just so... cute. It does it for me in a way that the Locust does not. Plus, it has the MLX's legs, which are sexy.

Mist Lynx does nothing but bicep curls. Fire Moth does nothing but military press. They both skip leg day.
