well, Terciel, you are missing out on a great fun mech. Screw meta, screw comp play, this is a tough little monster and plays pretty much how I remember it from MW4 days.

So many builds to choose from, almost too much really; still experimenting but AC10, 2 MPLs, 2 SRM4s is like a little dose of nostalgia - yeah, it's no Stormcrow but who cares? It's more challenging to do well in an underpowered mech.

The armour quirks are needed though, if anything, it could do with more :)

Fighting against them, it's been very easy to pop STs. And I was playing PXHs.

It's early, obviously, so no solid conclusions yet, but my initial impression that my $20 will be better spent elsewhere (Scorch, likely) feels good to me so far.

Well done. Enjoy destroying the new shinies! Posted Image

P.S. I didn't say they were any good did I? I just said they were fun.

seem pretty agile all things considered.... the triple AC5's work pretty much as expected. tried a few srm builds... the MG/SRM build is brutal over a short period of time, BUT... hvy face time to do it and the left side SRM batch just seems off... have some aiming issues due to it feeling lopsided. Arms seem to be decent at shielding torso.. but needed since xl seems required.

side note: might do heavy damage quickly but it is a bit spread everywhere (i'm normally more sniper so i'm all over the place with the MG's LOL)

Anyone got any builds for the X2? I'm for a lost on what to do with it?
