another +10 movement + JJ quirk, and a slightly bigger Armor buff, +5?

it is the largest IS 35 toner, but with the JJ's it should be a fairly agile and beefy mech. Please lets boost this mech a bit.. especially with the super sweet jenner buffs. the FS needs some love

It needs more torso pitch. PGI can make it as nimble as they want in other areas, but as long as it remains such a chore to get all eight weapons aligned and as long as 20-tonners can face-hug it to death, it will be crap.

Avoiding model-clipping is not as important as making the 'Mech decently playable in its own weight class.

Mech just needs to be shrunk period... Actually, most mediums and lights should be shrunk a bit to compensate for what heavy gauss and other massive alphas can do to them.

I disagree.. a ton of people play on smaller monitors. they are already small. the FS should be a super tanky light... Think HBK, but firepower of a light. On top of that they have JJ's.]


basically the mech should be the tanky version of the Jav

It's a light, lights should not be tanky.

Or they could just curb the massive alphas, which are one of MWO's biggest problems in general.

It's probably the easiest light to leg. Of course, if folks rather spray lasers from one arm to another, sure it appears to be tanky.
Imo, lights should be dodgy, not tanky.

Not all Lights can be dodgy, i.e. UrbanMech and Cougar.

Ya, not like you have to play all lights as harrassers/skirmishers.
