To play devil's advocate, the benefit of flat values is that it gives more relative benefit to mechs on the lower-end of their weight classes.

I thought that as well at first, but then remembered that should be applied everywhere for lower end chassis, not just the torso. Since we are using classed based restrictions for at least the tournament, to me it makes sense that 40 tonners should have near the same if not the exact same level of survivability as 55 tonners since they already sacrifice firepower and/or range for the speed advantage they have.

The firestarter just needs its old size back.

Dont care that lights got bigger but why is the locust so tiny and why are some high end medium and low end heavies the size of my wolfhound? ah yeah! The battletech universe exist in a dimension where volume is constant. The word mass is not yet invented and the big war killed physics as well as logical thinking. We all thought they were going to balance the game with the resize and maybe even increase ttk, lol we are so naive.

We would need to remove most medium mech quirks, and pretty much all quirks from heavies and assaults, and give some of them negative quirks...

That's actually not a bad idea.

Agree on the need of a buff. Very fragile mech now.
