Especially not to mobility. And especially not without buffing armor or structure.

They have the same problems as Thunderbolts--all of which at least received structure buffs.

I like the idea of defensive quirks, that will lower down the power creep. But so to speak, all Battlemasters need to have quirks like 1D.

Actually Battlemasters practically have no positive quirks.

Beemer got shafted. I'm especially surprised to see the extreme nerfs the 2C got. I thought that was one of their attempts at quirks, it was tough as nails with those armor quirks but no silly weapons quirks.

They also removed the unique heat trait from the hellslinger for some reason?

To add: you need to balance chassis against other chassis with a baseline set of quirks to get the best variant of each chassis to perform at an equivalent level. Then you buff the underperforming variants to that level.

And this can't be done without first balancing IS and Clan weapons.
