Here's my guide on it: don't buy it.

Any reasoning behind why you shouldn't buy it?

It can't possibly be THAT bad now can it? And as the lightest mech in the game, the MC cost has got to make it worth getting for Cbill farming and filling a specific field role.

It's a Commando without ECM. Enough said.

No ECM, no missiles, but maybe lasers will make a comeback if the lagshield is actually better now. Still not really sure why you'd want it over a 1B other than the c-bill bonus.

Wow, informative. Here's a suggestion to you: Go throw yourself into a blender.

Either man/woman up and participate in helping the game advance with some sort of constructive input, or let a more grounded individual attempt this for you. That simple!

Basically. The way ECM is right now, lights w/o it suck. Not because they suck, but because the lights WITH ECM outclass them. If you like rolling dice(as in whether or not the enemy lights will have ECM/streaks), spend money on this mech. If you get good rolls you win, if you get bad rolls you lose. OMG THIS IS THE PERFECT MECH FOR TABLE TOP FANS.

Actually this one might be pretty decent if they put repair cost back in the game. Gonna run with 3 small lasers and ppc on this one.

I would have been happy if it could mount jump jets, but ECM would be nice.

If they ever put ECM in its current form on a Hero Mech the forums would blow up with claims of proof of Pay to Win.

^ This. Besides, if you can't stand a little fun, why are you playing with big stompy robots anyway?

I have played - and own - and suck at - every light in the game. I enjoyed every lag-shielded moment of them, with the exception of the non-5D spiders. 3 mlas pew pew beats the heck outta the two.

TL;DR 4mlas pew pew cbill grinder will be grinding cbills like a boss.

C'mon Indoorsman, you have to have a deeper critique of it than that.

Lack of missile hard-points makes this a non-issue, still going to get ripped by a Raven-3L/Commando-2D.

FATHER, our child we place
Where we thy children kneel;
For thou hast made the sign of grace
To him, to us, the seal.

Thine own a moment claim,
Then lend him to our love,
Marked as thine own, - and bid the name
Be registered above.

Rites cannot change the heart,
Undo the evil done
Or with the uttered name impart
The nature of thy Son.

To meet our desperate want,
There gushed a crimson flood:
O from His heart's o'erflowing font
Baptize this soul with blood!

Be grace from Christ our Lord,
And love from God supreme,
By the communing Spirit poured
In a perpetual stream!

So cleanse our offering;
Then will we, at thy call,
This pledge accepted, daily bring
Ourselves, our house, our all.
