Almost regret buying, except for cool camo...

The current only weapon quirk suck. Why not go with something totally different for once?

My suggestion would be to go with Energy Cooldown 50% as the only weapon quirk. With that much energy hardpoint, one would have to consider this quirk carefully and learn to manage heat.

Any other cool suggestions for the TOP DOG? Looks like PGI need help here.

It's a cool idea. Unfortunately, PGI doesn't do cool ideas.

All quirks have to be 25% or less.

Hey Jester needs company in the non heroic Hero Mech club. Welcome Top Dog.

No, one would put two coolshots and core mechs quickly. Offensive quirks bad. Defensive quirks good.

lol...

there are a lot of mechs and heros that need far more help than the top dog.

[Afuldan McKronik]

SIB, Golden Boy (effective lurm troller though)...

[Quicksilver Aberration]

Any IS energy boat needs heat gen quirks to be relevant, without that key component, they are going to pale in comparison.

The Top Dog got buffs and people complain ?

Not the expected quirkz at all... would those make it a more desirable mech? No...

This mech only attractiveness is it's look, it's far from a P2W, it's more a P2StrikeThePose mech. I'm not saying I want to make it a P2W mech, I just don't want it to be the worse one at the bottom of the list.

I dare you to say that to someone who has the SIB or Golden Boy.

So what, he may get a kill if he's quick and very precise to hit same target same place but after that without any more coolshot he will have to learn to manage heat. I think this would let us try different loadout and see what's working and not.

Yeah I never looked at SIB closely but I remember it was subpar too... he's only cool because of police camo.

Top Dawg needs LPL range and LPL heat quirks to compensate for the 20% energy nerf.

LPL is very popular already... but your message gave me another idea for better using the 9 energy hardpoints, why not an unusual 80% SPL range?

[Afuldan McKronik]

Quirks that reduce TTK even more. Yep. Nothing new to see here. Move along.

[Alex Morgaine]

At least a Mechs would use spl of they gave it weird giga quirks for useless gear. ML would still be better in the long run.
No, not saying too give it gauss quirks. We got that already(did they even fix that highlander? I hope so anyway...)

Would be good, pity PGI wants IS variant heroes to be bad, but look like letting Clan heros be best variant.

[Corrado]

tried now with the mobility buff. it's great as always. 6MPL+3ML STD300. now, agility + atlas like structure.

i'd give away some quirks for a -10% heat gen tho. Almost every IS laserboat got it...

Guess someone missed out on half heat ERPPC Thunderbolts, and never saw the problems they spawned......

He said 50% cooldown, not 50% heat gen.

I stand corrected, still IS weapons recycle so fast compared to Clan equipment it's mostly a non-issue I find.
