AUGUST LEGENDS

APACHE AND SPECTRE PREVIEW


Hey all, it's been a bit since I've given a sneak peak on some upcoming legends. So let's dive into the August content!

Before I go any further, I just want to remind people that these two mechs and their mechanics are works in progress and there may be bugs or things that are subject to change before the patch and in future patches.
These two legends have unique and brand new equipment called Partial Wing Kits! These kits contain both jumpjets and a partial wing and are locked on to the mech. Further jumpjets cannot be equipped on the mech beyond these kits. Compared to normal jumpjets which prioritize upward movement over forward movement, these kits have a fraction of the upward movement and a much longer burn time. This allows the user to leap across great distances rather than just leaping in the air to fire off a shot or two. While you're in the air, the wings add additional stabilization which removes the traditional jumpjet shake.  The two legends are the Phoenix Hawk Spectre, PXH-S(LGD) and the Champion Apache, CHP-AP(LGD), here are some videos showing off how they function!

Stay tuned for August patch notes coming this week! Along in the September patch we're gonna see a certain clan heavy mech get a little bit of a booster pack facelift.
