Some are fun, some were fun.. Others are just yet another Hero mech, Moonwalker and Scattershot should be avoided imo.. The price point does not justify the nerfs.. None are actually Legendary at all.

I've bought 4 to date and none have actually wowed me even in the slightest. Moonwalker was fun before its nerfs. But hey gotta have those nerfs..

I've only bought the Jug, right before they changed it's hitbox, previously I bought a non legendary Hatamoto Chi as a platinum mech... and they nerfed it right after they put it up as a platinum. They've done this to other legendary mechs. I'm done buying anything new for cash, because they're just gonna nerf it. Arges will look great sure.. till they nerf it.

what quirks come with it does it have general ballistic or focused quirks concidering it starts with gauss will be fun to start seiing CYC in matches i just don't want them with LBx10/20 (they hurt my poor light alot)

gods no just noticed its got built in Seismic of 150m i can deal with that not 350m if it stacks its gonna be on my kill later or nope out list

May pick one up, but not for a while. Gonna wait till they've been nerfed. Same goes for the Stone Rhino.

came to the conclusion that the seraph sucks. i mean there is no reason it should suck, with all those energy hardpoints. but it does. the arges sucks less. neither is up to par with the first 4, as they were.

i am sure someone is stomping others with it, isnt the seraph focused on utility anyways? just drop artillery on them constantly or uav them hell coolshot your first alpha strikes and follow up with a second alpha strike

i find the problem with siesmic users is getting that first strike if you accidentally trip it (solaris city)and yea hope they are not watching or moving at the time JJ i had not thought of

the seraph is a coolshot boat. the ballistic points are best not used. i downgraded the lb10s to ac2s so i could max my engine and heat sinks. i got 7 ermls and 3 lpls, so its got a pretty good alpha dump on it. 85 point alpha in a typical 1-2 punch. with four coolshots to keep it cold. it should be a monster, but its a bit lackluster. of course the game is kind of weird right now. a few changes and its like everyone forgot how to play.

Mostly because that build sounds lackluster. AC2s are bad and you took a middle ground between 2lpl and 4 lpl builds with them.

I don't really like sniping builds myself but the 2 Gauss 4 ERLL build is super strong. 2 Gauss 2 ERLL 6 ERML works too. My go to build is 4 LPL 6 ERML. If you want to take other ballistics 2 UAC10s, 2 LPL, 6 ERML or the same with LB10s. Theres good build variety and the mech is far from bad.

Honestly for me the real draw is the battlepass extras. yes you get a mech but the stuff it gets with it are also a good deal, i might get the seraph and Arges just for the battlepass's..

The nerfs are a big turn off though.

So far I had enjoy the Moonwalker only for the 3x lbx20 and 4x srm6 build for one shotting anything 75 tons and below, the scatter shot is alright now need to adjust a bit but other than that I'm disappointed with the current legendaries they're just generic good mechs that don't offer unique this including the dreadnought in quirks department.

Extra consumables is bland and in reality who gonna use the extra 2 airstrikes, or whatever extra consumables?

i still haven't found a build i like. i put maybe 15 games on it yesterday, on no fewer than four different builds.

im thinking about taking the ballistics out entirely (or a couple lmgs) and going with 4 lpls or maybe 4 hlls with 6 ermls. wanted hlls initially but didnt have the slottage. i dont really want to turn it into a snipeboat, i got at least 2 other supernovas configured thusly (i also bought the arges and am keeping it mostly stock, so lots of gaussing there, its doing really well). i found i was constantly downgrading the ballistics and getting better results each time.
