Is there an explanation for this?

ETA here it is about the shield
http://mwomercs.com/...nturions-guide/
"If you consider you're able to use your left arm as a shield, that basically give you 32 "Free" points of armor to use as a soak at any given time."

Always try to aim for the torso when fighting a Centurion.

There is something pleasurable about the laughter from team mates when you turn up to help cap a base with no arms.
I've run out of witty remarks to shoot back at the wonderful comment; "What happened to you then?"
"Guess!" is as good as I can now manage!
Centurion gets stuffed just like any other mech, but I do feel opponents go for the gun arm and then seem to concentrate on something more dangerous.(?)
I enjoy my A and my AL. Dreading the D and don't want to go the YLW road.
Happy hunting!

It's like a Hunchback, except it's not as important, and a Centurion will still have more weapons left over.

Not completely necessary of course, you can still run a std engine in it, but it sort of defeats the purpose.

I rather like my CN9-D backbiter with a Std 300.

Not really a bug, it's outside factors.
Non-XL Centurions have always been hard to kill. I have had several Centurions, and fought lots also, the CT is really, really thin.

A stalker gets max CT armor of 122, split between front and back. A blind man could hit that big nose. Again and again.
A cent only gets max CT armor of 64, split between front and back. But the hitbox is way smaller, and cents tend to avoid getting shot in the back, so they put more armor in the front.
