An Orion Omni with ECM. And i thought I've seen everything in MWO.

A leg pod ecm none the less, so for loss of set bonus you can swap that puppy into any config with a little bit of weight management.

Dude I got good news. There is no So8, all the quirks are on the CT. At least what I could see looking on my phone

The trouble with the Orions is they all have very low mounted hard points so you're mostly getting punched without means to shoot back. Looks like only one of the variants address that (the one with torso lasers). ECM will help and be mandatory on all of them.

Also having a locked XL engine will make these easy to pop, even with those insane armor quirks.

I'm a sucker for Orions but I can feel the pain.

I’m already dreaming about a double LBX20 with ECM. I am absolutely ordering this as soon as the link is out

I'm hoping that the Blackjack BJ2O will soon follow. And hopefully, looks way different than the current version we have now.

Reading the patch notes every month to see if it's time for another full-blown MWO phase just to see Blight get nerfed; RIP fun.

Blight is one of the best mechs in the game, calm down.
