When they were first release in the new tech update on the clan side I was like yeah who cares. But now that I'm using IS Streaks I want one.
Would it be a game changer? No probably not, but one less slot requirement and maybe less weight be nice. Now why have I been thinking about a light active probe? My Assassin's would like one so I can hunt Piranhas more effectively oh and those Cheetah things, but they are so last century.

I mean, I know that you might be one of those guys who runs nothing but IS Mechs by principle, but the Arctic Wolf might tickle your fancy whenever it comes out. It looks like it's gonna be the Clan Assassin.

Looked at it, only reason I would buy it, would be because of the lore about the Kell Hounds. Nothing wrong with being an IS fan boy. Sometimes Simpler is so much better. Its why Clans keep getting nerfed.

active probes in general need to be buffed. i dont even use the clan light active probe.

it would be nice if BAP actually did the things its supposed to do

like being able to detect enemy mechs regardless of LoS. you should be able to detect all enemy mechs near you even if theyre behind you, behind buildings, behind terrain, etc... thats what BAP is supposed to do

BAP should also let you use sensor probe consumables. you should get 2 sensor probes per consumable slot. and be able to plant them in the ground and detect any enemies that enter their sensor radius.

BAP should also be able to detect stealthed mechs better at long range, not just counter ECM within 120m.

The whole ECM/AP relationship needs to be changed. Hard counters have always been bad.
