Catapults could all be aligned to 8 slots like the last hero butterbee:

Jester -> 8E
C1 -> 2M 6E
C4 -> 6M 2E
K2 -> 6E 2B or 4E 4B for some MG fun
A1 -> 8M

In general, most "1st generation" mechs are under-slotted.

Not even a mention of the Kintaro, it's that totally forgotten.

KTO-18 and Golden Boy are both excellent LRM platforms for their weight.

I think that the heavies and to some degree assaults turn so damn fast that it is extremely hard for light/fast mechs to use their speed to stay out of firing arcs for a meaningful time.

That and compared to heavies the agility quirks on lights (which is really ironic) get blown out of the water facilitate the problem of most lights being underperformers.
I honestly do not get it that the class which is all about speed and agility gets totally outdone by said quirk amounts by a class which carries thrice the armour and weaponry /shakes head



In no particular order:


Panther too slow to escape a lot of fire, low hardpoints, no sustained fire...

Wolfies their buff was a good step and they really do not need much but some minor agility quirks would help them a great deal

Jenner IIC aka a lunch-truck It really needs some agility quirks because it is hilarious that every heavy mech I possess seems to respond much better than a light mech add its fragility on top of it and ummm...yeah. Putting a 300 XL into a Cent-D and a Jenner IIC and then compare the movement is a real eye-opener

Huginn - needs ages of up-time on a target which is a problem in the game's current state

Firestarter - they are too large and take so much damage that it isn't even funny anymore

I'm sorry, what? I don't even know what those words mean.

It simply means those two mechs can lurm better than most other mechs at their weight class.

Can do what better now? I'm still confused.

King Crabs could use a stabilizer or gyro or something for those torso weapons because they wobble.
Normal crabs twist great but turn like a battleship.
Commandos OP plz send more targets. Seriously the 1B could use its pre-nerf heat generation quirk back.
Vindicators don't need another dip in the magic armor pool but really they move clunky like a trial Atlas.
We covered Jenners right?

dunno which ones, probably those I haven't seen so long that I can't even remember them existing.

Because the Kintaro is baller.
