My reaction when they are clan mechs.

LOL, you guys were arguing that the HBR with the one extra energy hardpoint in the torso would allow for such better builds

I was arguing about things in laser vomit vs brawling in general, nothing was ever about the HBR specifically.

And you still need heatsinks, ammo and all the other **** required to operate a mech. Those mechs dont allow you to post free tonnage weapons in them, it comes at a price just like all the other mechs. More heat, more weapons to manage, more time required to cool. Go ahead, boat the **** out of those lasers, you are just going to overheat faster. Go ahead and add missiles to your mech, gives me more of a chance to crit your ammo and blow your limbs out.

Its not free tonnage. You dont immediately get a superior option, you only get different options. You still die like all the other mechs. The hero mechs dont have more armor, better cooling or anything that makes them inherently superior stat wise. They just have different weapon loadouts. They still die to the same amount of fire that would kill their F2P family variants.

Dont worry guys, hitting the hill (coz of greater difficulty in recognising the angle when so much futher from cockpit) with the 2 ppcs in my summoners arm at Knee height while forcing me to show 80% of my mech is the same as 2 PPC's in my shoulder above cockpit height hitting the enemy while showing 10% of my mech.
