Activate MASC

Marauder is now no longer circling you it is turning in a tight easy to track circle in front of you

MASC does nothing anymore because it's percentage based. U should at least have played in such a mech before u post something like this.

So Masc IV falls in the same realm as Class 1 Jump Jets, its fraked.

Surprisingly nobody has posted the "In before lock" gif.

So, uh... in before lock?

Good lord half of these posts are trolling, or still have no legitimate idea on how badly the Spirit Bear and it's MASC system got screwed over with the Skill tree. The Executioner masc system works as it should, and like the other MASC mechs. For some reason the MASC on Spirit Bear does not work at all, and is so bad it is almost better to dedicate those 4 tons to other equipment. Not to mention the odd eclectic weapon setup - 2e, 1 ballistic, 4 missile (only 3 legit, as 4th is on CT) and with the functional masc , meant you could effectively do about one thing -fast assault striker.
But that is so not possible now, the thing moves like its caught in a mire. If you don't have one, first of all you really shouldn't even be commenting because you have no idea. I had the SB since it dropped, and it is just sad to see what was a unique, fun, and definitely not OP mech get left on the bottom of the crap pile.
Also, I'm not surprised OP got out circled, the Spirit Bear has been left behind.
How many on here don't actually own the Spirit Bear and for that matter, not have a frigging clue what they are talking about.

According to PGI, they are going to focus on 100 tonner balance (in terms of agility and durability) sometime soon.

That's Soon™. Like everything else.

If PGI played their actual game, they'd know these kinds of issues. Hell, they might even be motivated to fix them. But instead, they futz around altering gravity and stuff so they can create Whack-a-Mole* novelty versions that they find sufficiently entertaining.

* I'm not making this up. See their last Twitch stream.

That totally explains why the Executioner masc system works, and the Spirit Bears doesn't. Wait no it doesn't.
Also why have a feature in a game if it's just downright lame to use.
