last time it was so fun to use with its incredible energy duration and cooldown perk...now what happened to those perk?


that was the only thing that makes the Locusts 1E viable to use

The range and duration quirks were removed or reduced dramatically after the rescale, and again with the Skill Tree. And it didn't have a cooldown quirk, only range, heat, and duration.

That said, with MedLas being down to 3.4 heat you don't need the heat quirk and, with the Skill Tree reducing the duration down to 0.765 seconds, you don't need the duration quirk. It's still agile, it's still fast. The LCT-1E is still one of the best Lights in the game.

NOPE the duration quirk does help that much

it is miles apart now even with all the skill tree applied to duration. LPL with that mech was very deadly

You clearly never played the 1E before the massive quirk nerfs. That -50% duration quirk along with the heat and cool down made it super deadly, and remember reduction in duration also means reduction in cooldown.

That ain't a light HERETIC!

EDIT: Also the massive quark locust was the 1V, not 1E.

the 1V has the one Enery on its torso and it has a massive duration quirk before when I played it several months ago.. I tried it now and I just wasted 3 million cbills

[CraneArmy]

many quirks were dropped from the game entirely after skilltree.

same thing happened to the spider 5k, which is now equally useless.

Just a thing that happens in this game... sometimes stuff gets nerfed, its just dumb when its something that isnt that strong.

It was 25%, not 50%. That lowered MedLas to 0.675 s. We have 15% now through the skill tree, which lowers it to 0.765 s. I promise you that a 0.09 second difference for a laser that is already burning so fast that the target can't spread it means absolutely nothing.

And then there was the 25% heat reduction. The laser was 4 heat, down to 3 with that quirk. The laser is now 3.4 heat and, with the 9% heat reduction you should be taking...is 3.09. But we can also fit one more heatsink now than we could then thanks to Light Ferro.

The only thing worth lamenting over now is the lost range. RIP 365 meters MedLas.

Edit: and the LCT-1E never had a cool-down quirk. That's 25% on the LCT-3M, and it still has 20%.

the lct 1v and the 1v(p) had the -50 cooldown quirk not the lct 1e
