what do you Clan guys/gals think of the Huntsman now that you have to use them (at least sometimes anyways)?


Too squishy.

6SPL, 4MG Nova can compete with IS 55 splash mechs.

And the walking fridge aka IFR can do just fine in collecting intel if that's your forte.


only 6 SPL? Pleb, use 10, you can tank the spooky heat ghosts once from resting heat and deal 60 damage to instantly erase limbs and side torsos or spew out 5 and 5 groups of lasers + 4 mgs all day long. .

Either 6SPL + 4MGs, or 10SPL. You most certainly can not do both at the same time.

You actually can, with a tcomp mk1 as well.

Just exercise fire control and heat management.

I found if you stick together and 1 person is calling targets then you'll win most scout missions

You cannot balance game mechanics to make up for skill gaps between players/groups.

People need to stop suggesting this.

Start suggesting a proper ranking system and proper matchmaking for groups and solo.

Not feasible without a bigger playerbase, the bane of all matchmakers.

Limiting FW groups to 4 would be a good start, but it would also go against the very idea of units to begin with.

One and the same. Fire one arm at a time, and you can get something like 5 cycles of shots off from the lasers before you have heat issues. Pace your shots between left arm and right. That is part of having fire control, and that will lead into heat management.
