Wolfhounds - Shoot them.

Ubanmechs - Shoot arms when possible, torso when not. Most Urbanmechs, especially the missile one, have arms that, while tanky, are easy to hit and shoot off.

Assassins - I try to shoot the legs, but if I'm honest, Assassins have my number most of the time. I'm a baddy.

Command - Shoot torso, run away.

Abanbdon all Joy, Lads....... As with life, all good things come to an end...eventually. And, with several light mechs, unless you are really, really lucky, they may succum to defeat after everyone else is mostly dead and then, even when near their end, the Light Mech God complels you to over extend and you shutdown and face the ultimate truth: you were not worthy......

Alas, shoot all day long and in the end, Resistance is Futile......preapre to be lighteliminated.....

Commandos you just have to hit, same with Locusts. Wolfhounds frontload their armor, so backstabbing or ST is good. Urbanmechs as mentioned, are weak in the pelvis; if they are running away it goes to their rear torso.

Last night my r68 took some crazy point-blank PPFLD alpha to the CT and stripped ALL the armor off, from 95% fresh... all I could think was that’s “lesser” mech wouldn’t have done so well!

OP I was just thinking the same thing

just came out of a match where my Artic wolf got wrecked

I said on chat "please tell me the Wolf Hound is a medium"

maybe one way to kill the Wolf Hound is to buy one
that seems to work for me anyways

Assassin wrecked me in my mpl hbkiic last night. Made me so salty.


Edit: realized it was actually a javelin because srm2s.

I was already pretty injured but once it popped one of my torsos I was done. Think I had it legged

Incidentally, a pox on the OP for the topic title. Every time I see it, I get a certain Roxette song on my mind.

Go for the legs.

Go for the legs boo!

[Wolfways]

Go for the legs. That's always the answer and yet people don't see that as a problem lol.
Every other class in the game you think "st, is he XL?" or "Where is he badly damaged already?". Light mech? Go for the legs because nothing else matters (for Kargush )...unless you have Streaks.
Why slow them down if they have less armour? Because they ignore most hits.

[Gristle Missile]

Wolfhounds - Shoot the legs, sometimes they have ligh engines anyways
Urbanmechs - Depends on the variant, but shooting their arms off is usually the fastest way to neutralize them. They have a lot of leg and CT armor
Assassins - Legs - the torso hitboxes can splash the damage easily

This thread is full of comic gold.
Assassins are a legitimate threat.
All other IS lightmechs kinda just explode if you know how to aim properly.
Although, spiders are super super super annoying.... What kills them is when they try to fly.
Silly spider. Everyone knows spiders dont fly!
