A whole lot of Metal has come and gone. I got small group of mechs I genuinely love. But if I had to play just one single Mech the rest of my time in MWO?
HBK-4G(F) "Can Opener"
Pop in the AC20 lvl5 Cooldown, Mlaser lvl5 Cooldown, Seismic and Radar Derp.
Justify it? My first mech in MWO. Before I upgraded to Legendary Founder, my pack came with one mech, I chose the Hunchback. I'd say it's my signature mech, it certainly has the most drops. And it fits me perfectly. It's just fast enough to flank and skirmish. The high hardpoint allows me to sneak and peek. RoF let's me be a real threat even to Assaults, as long as I keep moving, twist and shout and my aim is true.
It's scored me an Ace of Spades, but only ever broken 1000 dmg once.
In fact, it's rare I do over 650 damage in it. But almost anytime I hit 500 dmg, it's guaranteed to bring at least 3 kills with it, because it's a simple, efficient and brutal killer. It doesn't ring up gaudy stats, doesn't inflate epeen. It just rewards true aim with dead enemies. I was in the lead on the Chassis Tournament, and even though I only played half the day, my score (tourneys really are just grind fests for the most part) I still kept in the top 20.
Add to it that the Founder's version is Gorgeous? Considering how ugly the original art was? Amazing job by Alex.
So whatever else happens? Only way you get to take away my Hunchback? Is by prying it out of my cold, dead fingers.
Not my best match in it, but pretty indicative of how a good match should look. More than about 150 or so damage per kill, and it means my aim was pretty off.
