The real reason Urbanmechs are so damn hard to take down is because the cylindrical shape is pretty much optimal for spreading damage instead of taking it all to one component. It's hard to isolate a side torso or a center torso when the whole thing is just one big cylinder and it's even more difficult to isolate when the thing can do a 360 degree torso twist while you shoot it.

also known as hitboxes not registering the damage properly

it's just a small mech with decent hitboxes and lots of armor. it registers damage perfectly fine.

A lot of people struggle with urbies because of their trashcan shape, I think people can't identify where the CT, LT, RT is on it, especially with it's torso rotation and armour quirks, so it can roll damage like a little champ.

And the K9 has a siren and light bar.

This cements the Urbie as the MWO master race.

i would say its minimum for lights, but the urbans current hitboxes are more xl friendly then std engine which is a shame its whole gimmick is that it has a std engine that has negative weight and 360 turret rotation =/
Also 97.2 without speed tweak, with speed tweak nodes its more than 100kph

I mean, my R63 runs a Std180 just fine .

As a side note, both my K9s have their sirens and lights in a loop via a macro. <maniacal >

Seems legit. Less firepower than most Urbies, but still on par with many Spiders. I managed to pack in max Jump Jets and AMS with a ton of ammo, and still left it with near max armor.
