Mech Review Holmes

The specialist classes are a demanding lot aren't they? Those low tonnage categories really stretch the heavy boys to their limits, and with many having scrapped their little mechs off they are catching a lot of guys of guard.

The 35 ton class is a bit of a crossover class too, but DO NOT DESPAIR!
Introducing the HOLMES! This small green killing machine is a damned fine solution to many of the 35 ton issues.

Weighing in bang on the 35 ton limit it is a real beast to take out the enemy.
For those of level 16 and above it is a perfect base for those laser weapons, and we all love our crit-kill guns don't we?

This pint sized terror, resplendent in it's military green finish will set you back a cool  1575 in ferrite, 1050 in bioptics, and 70 cold crystals. So... does it perform? Well... YES! It comes loaded with some useful modifications that accumulate nicely as you level, including a tidy double damage incursion, a moderate speed plus and some SERIOUS laser damage bonus.

Fast enough to compete in it's class and strong enough to tolerate some rough flak it can man-up to the competition around it's field. Originally commissioned as a command mech for the lighter fighters, it's feet are firmly routed with our latest outings of class professionals.

Take note and invest. If you are focusing on a purchase of flavians, or have a KotM surplus of galaxy eyes, then these big boy's toys are your huckleberry. Well worth the flutter.
