Working out well for you? I hear you can totally make it work, if you only believe in the power of the heart of the cards, and treat it with true love from level 1.

Right, guys?

The spider works well in it's intended role.

That of flying cannon fodder to give free kills to real mechs.

Maybe the Hero Spider will have 4 missile hard points and ecm.

This is very true. In the intended role, no star shines as brightly as the spider.

Or so briefly!

The Spider works well in it's intended role, but they should make it's exploion effects survive longer.

I kinda want it to detonate like a living legends mech after you kill it, but the explosion should be even bigger, and not harm you, giving you the illusion that you've killed an extremely strong foe, like you're leveling up in world of warcraft.

Now that'd be a great way to use the spider.

Like the hero commando has 4 energy hard points?

[verybad]

I think the Hero Spider should get 18 jump jets.

[LeGen]

I value the Spider. We now have something uglier and stupider looking than a Comode, oops I mean Comando to complian about.

[Grey Man]

.... I like the spider....

[Mr Mantis]

Have not jumped into one yet, but I have killed a few. Mostly noted as similar to a jenner but with a much weaker loadout and an ecm var.

[RocketmanZero]

As an Atlas pilot I love running around in the ecm spider now and then. It reminds me how small and puny other lights are in comparison and still how many pugs cant aim with lasers....

I've played one match were I'm running around river city 2 minutes after my team got obliterated, just running circles around a cicada and the rest of the enemy heavy's trying to hit me (I guess they didn't want to cap and be done with it). Eventually I took pity on them and landed full force on my legs resulting in suicide..so yeah...I wish the explosions of the spider were bigger too. Other than that its like playing Tribes ascend from the perspective of a mech which is fun....till you die..

This looks like it was drawn with the actual candy on that necklace.

I've grown to like the 3 ML 5D a little bit, it's a good 'scouting' mech with BAP,ECM, and Adv Sensor. I've also managed 350+ dmg matches because I can actually aim. It feels a little vulnerable to other more weaponized lights though, as the spider's speed is still capped the same as other lights, so it can't outrun its biggest threats.

I kit mine with a LL and 2 ML. Still inferior.

it's cool

[Wraith05]

Just saw 2 spiders take a game from 1-5 to 5-8. May have been due to the lagshield, but those things can be deadly.

I got to play agame before work, I was flying high until 22 streaks converged on me all at once. I enjoyed my 60s of flying around, yes I did
