it only Goes 48kph(52kps Tweaked)
for being a Slow Assault it gets No Structure Buffs,
But Why? the reason its an OmniMech,
OmniMech means it can Choose to Carry Stupid amounts of weapons,
but it also means it cant Remove its Locked Equipment(DHS & Engine),
I think it needs Structure Buffs Why?
1) its Slow, Speeds a Major Problem for the DWF,
its almost always left behind by the team, and then has to Fend for its self(Lights)
and Organized teams rarely take it because its so slow and their are better Options,
2) it can Carry Lots of Energy BUT,
it just cant pack enough DHS to Cool Everything it can Hold,
whats the Point on Carrying 8ERLL if you Melt trying to Fire them even 2 at a Time,
whats the Point of Carrying 15possable Energy, if you cant hope to Fill all the Slots,
Let alone Cool even half the Slots you Fill(even 8-10MPL(Fired 4-5 a time) is too Hot)
3) it Can Carry Lots of Dakka BUT,
that itself if also Limited, it can Run 4UAC10s but you only get 50Shots,
and thats assuming Only Ammo, no Extra DHS to stop you from over heating,
also you have to Face your Target and Space your Fire if you want to Stay Cool,
6UAC5 Build? 40Shots, its good for Shake but Runs out of Ammo before Long,
4) Other Mechs that Can do the DWFs Roles, but Better and move Faster,
many of these Mechs have these Structure Buffs, and thats Ok,
5) it has the Smallest Turn Angle of Any Mech,
a Fact it Shares with the BLR-1G/3M & STK-3H/4N/5M/5S,
Though those Mechs Have Quirks to Compensate(Weapon/Mobility),
Everything Considered, i think its time we Buff the DWFs Structure,
its Slow, Bulky, Cumbersome, Weak, Feeble,
a Good Mech if you Get the Jump on others, or have a Good Position,
but its speed makes it hard to get into Position, and getting Kill in Route,
is it Finally the right time to Put an End to Calling the DWF OP,
can this Mech Finally see some Love to give it a Chance in a Highly Mobile Meta,
or should we let it die for reasons that it ONCE was OP,
Edit-
I know Some will say that they do Fine in the DWF, that with any Buff they will be amazing,
and thats ok, persoanlly i did great in my Nova, before therescale, and am doing amazing after,
but me doing Great in a Nova doesnt mean it didnt need to Be helped and Rescaled,
just please Consider that Even though you may do Great in the DWF,
many others may not, and if the Amount of people that cant do Good in it out weigh those who Can,
then it should be helped even just alittle, which it why i ask theCommunity the Question- DWF Buff?
Thoughts, Comments, Concerns?
Thanks,
