My suggestion is to either learn to use the mech for it's strengths, or don't and sell it.
How many 800-1k dmg games have I been the front pushing mech in my prettybaby that I know I've been in drops with you with. A good pilot will still do well regardless of the mech. I mean vortex went like 75-0 with the 2 med pulse spider in Solaris.

It's not just how big it is, it's the shape. Its CT is targetable from some pretty obscene angles.
Luckily, no one can shoot straight.

458 damage and 1.2 kills per match, could you post your KDK-3 and Anni stats? (MAD-IIC... Sleipner... Deathstrike, anything universally acclaimed as a good mech)

I hate owning assaults I have to hind in the back with to be able to use.
This is both technically true and totally irrelevant at the same time.
Yes, the quirk was nerfed by 33%. But if you skill and properly frontload your armor your side torsos go from 98 to 94 points. Big fracking deal.
Statswise, the Fafnir is my best assault. Only clam mechs come anywhere close.

Dude, you've admited to farming spuds in FP. Yes, it takes a good player to capitalise on those contitions and achieve stats like that but they are still cooked. Even people like proton say that Fafnir has oversized CT.

If you want to handicap yourself by playing random maps with a fixed mech loadout, more power to you.

Random is kinda the point of "average".
If your data is only gathered only at a really narrow band of situations, such as in FP with great team and typically dumb enemies which is basically seal-clubbing using a specific built for that map, then the data is only really representative of FP+Great-Team+Noob-Enemies+Select-Build.

Vx from EmP already posted his Fafnir stats from QP.

I just cannot work out how people come to wild conclusions like these on a regular basis.
The ANNI still has the better hitboxes aside from the quirk nerf.

The issue is the CT can be hit from any angle as the nose sticks out. Even fully twisted you are just eating damage like crazy as side on it's rubbish.
End of the day the Fafnir plays like any other slow assualt, you gotta use yor brain and position well or you will get destroyed.
The bonus of the Fafnir is the ECM means that at least 8 out of the 12 enemies probably won't immediately shoot at you because there is no red box above your mech as many players just aren't aware of what is going on. Thus you can really crank some damage in it before people realise you are there. If the Fafnir didn't have ECM, this would be a different discussion.
