How is it working for you so far?

For me, I am not giving up on it by any means, but it feels wrong. Same armor as the Cicada, but slower and bigger. The arms and the hump stick way out, I am getting my *** handed to me when I poke.

I am hoping once I have it skilled out it will be more nimble and take a punch, but right now it feels like paper.

I can see their STs before they can see me, when they crest a ridge. Tasty squishy Uzis.

It's almost like I predicted that flaw of them months ago....

Still the Uziel isn't without any hope, it is one of the mechs that will see the most use with LFE or standard engines, I just don't expect much out of it.

STD 300 would take up half of the Uziel's weight (25). LFE 300 would take up roughly 2/5th (20,5).
Either way, you're left with limited options.

My Uzi is great I bring it to the range and have some fun shooting it..

As for the Uziel its a great jump sniper mech if you can use Light or Snub Nose PPC's well. Maybe get the jump tree a bit on the nodes and also just know where your jumping to and you can have some fun...

Yup, also something I went on to post about months ago too....

Fun to drive.

Damage is meh

Damage rolling is nonexistent due to the alphawarrior nature of Online.

Jumpsnipes well,even without a full rack of JJ

Runs MRMS really well.

But the animations are bloody horrible and amateur hour level. It sits far too tall to effectivly hide it's barn door sized torsos.

But then again,the Cougar is as tall a a Hunchback.

Making the Belial from Mechassault is an exercise in frustation.


It NEEDS some defensive buffs in terms of some quirks. Nothing over the top,just a few would be nice.

I also do well in an XL Bushwhacker, that's not the point. The point is for the vast majority of the player base an XL Uziel is not a viable option..

The Uziel needs to be redesigned to something like MW4. The legs are too high and the arms seem to be a bit long and don't get me started on the movement animation. They somehow turned it from a serious medium to a medium that's more of a clown but this clown didn't get the memo of being in the circus instead of a battlefield.

Also most Uziels I've seen are just getting knocked out because they are so easy to hit due to the side torsos being easy to take out. I also feel the most viable builds are centered around LPPCs and UACs with either SRMs or MRMs depending on how original you want to be. All of this based on what I've seen so far fighting and knocking out other Uziels.

Personally I love it!

One of my favorite mechs is a Non-meta Cicada that runs pretty slow and the Uzi is a faster version of what I ran.
