Well, that mech is pretty tiny. Nice.

[GaelicWolf]

Mech scale pics are up.....looking good, just the right size. IMO

Garbage quicks other than heat and since you will be heavy MG doesn't do that much.

PGI nerfing clans again in hopes of getting more IS sales. Your continue to nerf Clan has cost you a number of sales from me and my friends, with even some cancelled. Keep up the good work.

Now look at;
how many weapons each can bring
how Clan MGs are lighter than IS
how Clan lasers are more damaging than IS
how Clan DHS are smaller than IS
how much more space Clan Endo & Ferro leaves you, compared to IS
how Clan XL >>> IS XL

Do you understand why the Piranha has less quirks now? Good.

Sorry, but this sounds like a justification for the inability to play. For 20t mech with scale like 25t mech its really important have good quirks.

Good job it's not the scale of a 25 tonner then, as demonstrated by the scale comparisons.

Good move. How use PS/Gimp ang look how this mech huge as 25t mech like lynx. And be your logic its okey dont give good qiurks for this mech because "clan OP"? Shame on you.

I'd rather use my functioning eyes (or the stream which showed the Piranha fitting inside a Commando) to see that it is, in fact, smaller than the Commando or Mist Lynx.

I guess it's easier to cry foul that "Clan got screwed again!?" or something?

I recommend you to go pick up my prescription on the glasses, maybe it will help.

Of course not, better to whine about

Its much more easy for 95% players of this game.

PIR is not as deep in the torso as the LCT or MLX. It's not as wide for as much of the torso on the MLX or LCT, either. The legs are equivalent to the Locust. The arms are way smaller than the MLX or Commando, but larger than the Locust. Overall, sizing seems like what it should be.

It could probably have gotten the same +6 Armor quirk to the legs and +3 to the arms that the Locust has, but let's not forget that those are the only quirk the LCT-1E (strongest variant) has and can't knife fight with those super weaksauce isSPL and even weaker SL/ERSL, and its Rate of Heat Loss quirk is non-functioning where the PIR's Heat Dissipation quirk will be working.

Buff the PIR, you need to buff the LCT as well.

Thats tiny! It seems slimmer in some parts than even the mist lynx, commando and locust. It might not, a heavy MIGHT not need more defensive quirks. Because if the Locust and the two others are hard to hit, yeah sure this one wont be much different.

You basically got a better Locust(Or is it a better Commando?) - and you still whine.

[ArticArcher]

As a clanner who has bought this mech I can say this mech is I would have expected: Fast, reasonably small, no jumpjet/ecm but with lots of hard points for micro lasers and machine guns. Since it is a 20 I would not expect it to hold a line like a heavy or assault. Quirks I did not expect any due to the boating not sure why some people feel like they should.

Overall lets stop whining until we play the mech.

Because even in the mechbay it doesn't want to stand still, it wants to run, it wants to kill!

[jacobbeach]

As must as I am used to the salt on the forums here, I am surprised that there is so much for this little PRH. If you like clan and you are complaining, your are just complaining because you like to complain, which it seems like a lot of people here do.

Scale was/ is/ will be everything for this mech, and it appears to be scaled PERFECTLY. It will be interesting to see in game.
Hit boxes look good especially with the arm shape, although Idk if that will matter much on such a tiny quick little mech.

Quirks? Why would it need any more quirks than it has? It has one of the most versatile loadouts in the entire game with essentially %50 of its weight being pod space.

Not to mention how it could open up tonnage for faction drop.

And it looks great to boot.

Maybe PGI doesn't listen to some of you guys because you will complain about literally anything and everything they do, therefor you have lost ANY amount of pull that you might have had with them. Come one.

I have never purchased an ultimate pack before, that is, until this mech. Hopefully it will perform like I think it will.

[Electroflameageddon]

This thing is tiny. It may be as tall as a 25 tonner, but it is SO skinny. It looks like it has roughly the same volume as a Locust.

This thing is going to be a fun mech to run. I"m kind of glad I bought one (mostly for the early adopter prizes I confess).

If it is roughly the same as the Locusts that I run, I'm going to have good games or incredibly terrible games. Nothing in between.

Nice.

The size is perfect! I'm thinking the arms are superfluous, plenty of torso to work with anyway.

I'm seriously wanting to drop down to an XL100 or something just so I can boat HMG's....

Did you mean for that to rhyme, or did it just happen?

I bought the Uziel to fight the piranha and cleanse the Innershpere that we have so righteously inherited .

I'd stick with normal MGs (and I'll personally try LMGs)

12 MGs and 4 tons of ammo allows for over 20 DPS against exposed structure, and can fire for a minute straight.
