Delayed retaliation is good enough for me, though you'd be surprised how many people have looked right at me without shooting (My Stealth Fafnir is painted all black, of course) then turned and walked away.

People always underestimate the value of ECM and Stealth Armor. If you actually try to paint your mech to make it blend into the background and stand very still, it is amazing how many enemy mechs will just walk right past you no matter what mech your in.

TLDR of Kanajashi's video: Dead CT Walking, an attempt to not have the Sun Spider side torso issue repeated, but went too far in the other direction...

Its a great mech if you know how to pilot it.

Ok yes the Faf has STorsos the size of a barn door. Yes its CT is ever worse. But cmon wheres the love? I hit 1500+ dmg in the FNR-5, 5B and W "Wrathnir". Ez build for that one is mrm10x4, HGR, Heavy PPCx2. Or Heavy PPC x4. Or MRM30x4 RAC5x1 GET IT A STD ENGINE 325, MAX TORSO YAW ANGLE N SPEED, ANCHOR TURN. I see alot of players running the Light 300 or 325 on the 5 or 5B alot, its ok but remember you're not going that much faster than the STD 300, can only lose 1 STorso, and now your slots are too full for HGR/AC/UAC20. I think the Hero Wrath is one of the BEST Heros in the game. ECM, Huge hardpoint variety. Can throw MRMs on any build, ERMed same, ERLLx3 also. If you don't believe me on the Wrath or any other variants I have builds galore. Msg me for Builds on any variant.

The last post in this thread is 4 and a half years old. So many things have changed that the posts aren't relevant anymore.

On that note. Bring me the gravekeeper to put this to rest!

You blundered through the doorway,
of this forgotten thread
And never even noticed,
that all the posts were dead!

Necro, necro, necro,
You've failed another test.
Necro, necro, necro,
Just let the dead thread rest!
