If I were an optimiser, the *correct* choice at LL12 would be give my Enkidu the Reinforced Frame core. 30HP is good but I've spent most of the campaign facetanking which is unlikely to change, and the extra buffer would be nice.
Of course what I'm *actually* going to take is Fomorian Frame because having threat 5 plasma talons on a size 3 frame is absolute hot nonsense and I am a complete sucker for meme builds. Also it matches the art that Tom drew and that's all the reason I need. #LancerRPG
@kastark I can't fault you there. I'm using a Viceroy with the waffenfabrik-zalewski stuff for just two LLs to get the Fluxion Bit and Blinkspace Chain Rotor, and it does hilarious memey things. If I'm not within 3 of something, an ally or enemy almost certainly IS!
And the blinkspace chain rotor counts a melee, a launcher, AND a CQB.
@NinjaDebugger Wild! I haven't had much of a chance to check out the Wa-Zal stuff, hopefully once I'm done writing Shadow of the Wolf I can dive back in to more third party content
