81 kp/h mech bearing down on its enemies with a huge honkin' gun like that is bliss.

Endo steel, DHS, standard engine, I took ferro for the extra 1 ton, and an AC/20 with 3 medium lasers.

Currently, I'm doing a copycat of the Grand Dragon.

Add XL and you'll be 100+ kph!

They didn't up the AC/20 ammo to be 10 per ton like they said they would. I find that I have to run that build with AC/20 w/ 4 tons ammo, 2 small lasers, and 1 medium laser just so I have enough ammo to last most of the fight.

Ballistics are still wonky. I dunno if it is because of the netcode... but it seems a lot of my shots miss now where they weren't before this patch.

Can't fit an AC/20 if you are using an XL engine unless it is the Yen Lo Wang.

Might be because of the new faster projectile speeds.We are all so used to compensating for ridiculously slow projectile speeds.

That's my thoughts. I did notice some convergance issues, though that was on my Fang's LBX.

Fast, deadly, and really pretty.
If I had a slightly larger budget to operate with, I would purchase it right now.

Just managed 4 medium lasers and an AC/20 by dropping my leg armor down to 34 a pop. The original build I had forgotten to use DHS because of a mechlab issue, but now I have DHS and saved more weight, allowing for more armor and that extra laser. I also have 4 tons of ammo.

For the record its a Hunchback not a Dragon.

Can't run XL and a AC/20, insufficient torso crit slots
