7 energy??? Boring! well 7 SPL would be appropriate.

There is a few I want to try with that variant...

7SPL
6 or 7 ML
5 MPL

Not sure which one I will like best.

When playing in a Spider, follow every Javelin I see and spam into chat:

"Hey where'd ya get all those hard points? Could I have some? Can ya help me find some hard points? What's it like having all those hard points? Know anyone who can get me some hard points? Boy it must be nice having all those hard points. Can you spell power creep? Can ya get me some of that power creep? Who do I gotta sleep with to get me some a that sweet sweet power creep? Hey where'd ya get all those..."

Hopefully I'll get reported for griefing enough times that PGI will actually look into it, and then see a chat log, and then maybe, just maybe they will have a moment of clarity. I doubt it but I can hope.

"We here at PGI have noticed that the Spider chassis does not have nearly enough hardpoints, so all variants will be recieving missile hardpoints for their head coming next patch."

I have ran these all on a firestarter, only the spl has worked for me. The others are way to hot to be able to jump into a fight when i needed too.

I do think 4mpl on the 10f will be nice(not op ) because of the increased speed.

I think they would just as likely nerf all mechs to have only the same number of hard points as the Spider.
At least my Panther 10P would get a buff that way.

I'm wondering how many LPL one can shoehorn in there - 2 LPL and 2 MLAS?

I wonder if they will add hardpoints to sections that originally didn't have hardpoints there because otherwise hardpoint inflation won't save the SDR-5V given the stock weapon positions for it.

CT: 4E.

Quirk: Engine takes two less CT slots than normal.

Spider with 4E?

Quirk: Mech gains 5 tons and gets renamed to Venom. :3

Yeah... but looks sexy doing it?

Not as sexy as a quad, but close enough?

[Alex Morgaine]

Spider buff: 2 ct still but let it use clan weapons.

[Requiemking]

[Idealsuspect]

These plus 2 MRM10s

I wonder how well hi there will run. Don't think you can pump the engine that much with anything bigger then med lasers and srm4s before you start having tonnage issues. I wonder how well an erppc and narc would work. Pop em and run :3

[MacClearly]

I will likely get the pre-order for the colours and I like the break in pricing.

What I will use it for is likely to hunt down lurm boats or quick flanking harasser.
