Too bad the new lance weight restrictions force you to drop solo with this beast.

It's unable to load-out with 10 LBX2s so not interested.
Yeah, not in the arms, but 2 in the RT...so yeah 10 LBX2s is a GO lol!))
Still, the Hit Boxes on those side torsos will be Ridiculous!((

I'm a bit sad to see that some people think that the Bane will be DOA due to the glass cannon comments. If the mech is weak upon release(I highly doubt that though) it will be buffed. Don't worry, if it's bad it'll only be bad for a month at most.
As for the BANE-2 feeling underwhelming, many Cauldron members felt the same way. There were requests to buff the BANE-2 last week and majority of them were in favor of it. However the due date for November patch content had already passed and I am very leery about last second snap buffs without proper time to deliberate it. I sidelined the BANE-2 buff out of caution since I was worried we would hastily make a monster. If it as weak as everyone is fearing, it will certainly be buffed in December patch.
I know it's easy to sensationalize how a mech performs right out the gate, call it busted, call it DOA, or whatever label you want to apply to it. But balance is a fluid act and just because it's not perfect in one month doesn't mean it won't change the next. Things are always shifting until we feel they're in the right place and the Bane won't be an exception. So just give it time, if it's not right it'll be made right.
