I just got one and I'm really regretting it.
If it had ecm it would help a lot!

The other light mech's see me as a challenge and I pretty much die in a minute.

PLEASE add ECM, I would probably last 2 minutes this way. LoL

Who else thinks this mech is pretty useless without ECM.
I mean, the max I can have is two torso medium lasers.

I know the purpose of these guys are to scout, but if there are 2 or 3 other lights on the other team, you get eaten alive

You should probably do little research before buying mechs. The spider 5D has ecm.

Whaaaa wasted my hard earned c-bills. But I was lured in by the opportunity to have 12 jump jets. However when you fly, you become easy bait for locking missiles. If a LRM 20 is locked and fired while I am flying the ams won't do squat.

To get the basic skills down you need to do all the three variants anyways so worry not about wasting your cbills.
Then again the spider might be a little gimped when missiles are the way they are...

Even when generally AMS is total ********, in Spider is even more waste of tonnage than in other mechs.
