Cooldown is getting nerfed in next patch and nova is getting cooldown buff for ballstics

inner sphere do not get micro lasers that's a clan only weapon.

Yeah bound to mix that up occasionally once the techs start merging.

ive found the blackhawk to be rather mediocre myself. the free mech and the 6 stone rhinos i bought for cbills far outperform it.

Right, heavier mechs outperform lighter heavies.



Almost as if they .. I don't know.. have more room for more weapons, ammo, equipment and armor??

i don't think that will ever happen due to how the game is balanced.

The 100 tonne clan assault far outperforms the 60 tonne IS heavy with the locked XL? No way! Tell me this isn't true!

I enjoyed the Blackhawk in the 90s Virtual Worlds pods. It brings back happy memories. It also performs very well for many people- well enough it's getting nerfed in this week.

i got a couple of clan urbies that would like to have a word with you. frames the more tonnage more better argument in a completely different light. that might apply to the stone rhinos, as this argument is usually used in the context of assault mechs. the jag isnt that far off.

its still weak as far as mechpacks go. it cant do anything a clan nova can do better with 5 fewer tons.

In the context of 'the free mech' (a heavy) and the Stone Rhino (an assault), neither of those are lights. So my comparison generally stands. There's always going to be exceptions.

I mean in my head.

No, it's a slow assault mech, so B tier at best
