While it is expensive the damage potential is insaaaane. Played well, you will only ever fall to two types of mechs: Magnum Stalkers and Trebuche Natashas.

The Stalkers because they can cloak and cross your kill-zone too quick with shield bypassing weapons, and the Natashas because they can deal too much energy damage at range if you get caught out.

Everything else it toast. You just keep the enemy in the 400-600m sweetspot and use cover and shields to protect your hull between bolts. Mine are at lvl8 and I kick 20k damage every 5 seconds.

You need to play as a skirmisher and a mid-range sniper. If you take this mech into the assault you WILL get carted.
