I feel your Pain and understand the frustration. Honestly, Its the Balance of Light mechs Paper thin armor by giving them speed and mobility. However, Physical attacks like kicks and Punches would make Light mechs a bit shy of doing the Leg Humping too but alas, i think that ship has sailed long ago (but i dont give up hope for it to someday be implemented). Maybe some day, we will get Physical inherent attacks... Kicks only being possible if the Mech is stationary, Punches only possible with Hand actuators. On the issue of the Commando tho... those hitboxes are broke as f man.

Yeah but then all the tryhards will start qqing every time an Atlas steps on they're Raven...

Stealth ravens are fun with tag provided you are dropping with some missile slingers. They don't do that badly as a damage dealer either if you squeeze in two LL and an er med.

When I played myself in Commando and Javelin against assaults, I figured, how assaults can win:

Run to a wall. A tree or small rock no good.
Stand your back near wall.
Shoot at you legs and enemy with arm weapons...

I find those ravens the easiest to find and kill. They are super slow,pitiful damage deal when in med or close range, and easy to spot when you know how to look. My best 3l stealth build uses 3spls and 2 srm6s with two arty strikes.

If I want to 'tryhard' I'll use my lct-1e 6 spl build in which I got the ace of spades or if I really want to I'll just go Harpoon with the Oxide 43 alpha. Clan side I can get even more with the clan version of the Oxide. Now where is the stealth raven op thread or you going to run one for a month in the hopes some one makes one?

I just equip bap and ssrm6s or 4s for faster cool down. The game has a weapon perfectly designed for killing up close lights. You still want arm lasers since bap won't counter stealth but you should know how to fire lasers at a lights' legs any way.

I was using it as a generalization of sorts, not in a literal sense, lol, go on...

I’ve been having fun (trolling, I guess) in my Spider 5D. Stealth armor, 3 erml, max engine, lots of jump jets. I named it Squirrel Prime. The idea is to get several reds to chase the squirrel. I do that and my team gets an advantage in numbers.

it’s hilarious when it works and aggregating when I pull 5 reds out of the fight and my team loses anyway. Tell me again how I did more damage than the Dire Wolf? Hooray for QP!

I have trouble remembering the osiris exists. I've not seen one recently.
