Per the patch notes...

Rate of Heat Loss Design notes: It was brought to our attention that the previous "Rate of Heat Loss" quirk designed to offset the forced external heat sinks of lower engine capped 'Mechs was bugged and was not properly functioning. We have decided to shift these quirks over to the functional "Heat Dissipation" quirk in order to provide the intended boost to 'Mechs with a sub 250 engine class cap, while also consolidating the bonus into the same quirk provided by the skill tree. This means that the total bonus for both the native quirk plus skill tree investments is displayed as a singular value, and no longer tracking through two separate quirk entries.

Ok...so why then are the Arctic Cheetah (all variants...omni mechs with a fixed 240 rated engine) and the Arctic Wolf (Prime, A and P variants...again omni mechs with a fixed 240 rated engine) missing these quirks ? Shouldn't they have received the same 7.5% quirk as the blackjacks, vindicators and commandos which have a 235 or 240 range engine cap ?

good point.

Also note that the new missile Urbie still uses Rate of Heat Loss instead of Heat Dissipation.

yes every mech that cant take a 250 engine should get those quirks

because they dont get the benefit of having 10 internal true double heatsinks
