When a specific Clan mech omnipod is tagged, all streaks head directly towards it until it is untagged and streaks resume their previous course.

Non-omnipod mechs and other missile types are not affected by this Feature Suggestion.

This is about extending the Streak's niche usage to heavily armored slow moving Omnipod Mechs, now that Streaks have been heavily nerfed against fast moving light targets, which was their initial niche usage.

Also this request is based on the assumption that few players use Streaks in their current condition.

streaks are still used quite a bit and are still plenty devastating against light mechs especially if you are using tag. the only ones that can really avoid them are the ones with lag shielding.

on top of that why such a nerf to omni mechs? you realize omnis come in all sizes from small to assault so they aren't "heavily armored slow moving mechs" being able to target a component with streaks on any mech would make them more than broken. also what happens when there are 2+ tags on the same mech

First tag prevails.
