Warrant, the TBR Hero, has no center-torso hardpoint. What's up with that? Yes the C-Bill bonus is kind of special in the CT of the mech, and the special camo-spec, but shouldn't it be because it's an exclusive variant? Not a balance-mechanic? You know, because you paid for it.

The CT, from a gameplay standpoint is a big meh. Consdering that i can just simply switch omni-pods, and then the hardpoint it has, there's not really much reason for me to use Warrant over something like TBR-S to try and get the optimization I wanted. At best i could grind CBills, and look cool while doing it.

I would suggest to add a center-torso Missile hardpoint; it's different than many other variants. However there's still not a lot you can do with a single hardpoint, with a single slot. That's just a Narc, or a non-artemised SRMs, LRM5 or LRM10 that is also not artemised, and just SSRM2s and SSRM4s. Which means to make use of the CT with normal LRM and SRMs, torso launchers would also not have artemis.

Here's a mockup:

Since PGI is adjusting hero hardpoints, could we also get this?

I can get behind this... cause it will likely wreck me if I stay in front. Posted Image

The time for said change is probably over.

Unless they do something like that for the Pretty Baby (cause, it's sad), it's not going to happen.. I don't see this happening with heroes already released.

At best, you could cite the error that was the Stalker loyalty variant that they totally screwed up its hardpoints or something and stuff.

I own the Warrant and would very much like a CT hardpoint.
In today's game environment however, I very much NEED an AMS hardpoint.

PGI Plz

edit - I'm talking about the straight up 8/8 stock pods. I'm not giving up those quirk bonuses.
