  • Defiance Industries bounced back from a potential bankruptcy with the Fafnir. Based on the Lyran combat philosophy of firepower and survivability, the Fafnir achieves this with ease. Well armoured and armed, the dual heavy gauss it carries can one shot near any target it encounters and little else can fight it toe to toe. Suffice to say the Fafnir is a foe to be feared regardless of your allegiance, be it clan or Inner Sphere.

    The Fafnir, when Steiner didn't think the Atlas was thicc enough.

      I would still give the Atlas the edge in a 1 on 1 fight though, but the Atlas would probably be fucked afterwards.

      I'd love to test your theory in a Stock-Mode Lobby fight :)

      As a stout member of the Fafnir master race I will have to disagree with you on this one Critical. :P

    I can't look at this mech without thinking it has jet turbines in its side torsos.

      "Clear behind, Fafnir LAM taking off!"
      Locust stands two hundred meters behind the Fafnir. Two seconds later, it is a pancake on the ass of the Faffy.
      "I said clear behind! What part of that did you not understand?!"
      "THE PART WHERE IT TAKES OFF BACKWARDS!!!"

    I don't even play MWO any more but I still tune in for your lore videos.

      Thanks :) I aim to get a Solaris lore vid for this weekend since it will be a bit more in depth like the clan or house vids.

      That free cam in the testing grounds is a nice tool. Makes them more interesting than the old standing there doing nothing version.

    I remember the Fafnir from MW4. I was quite fond of it.

    A bit too much mwo imagery. Loved the fluff photos you’d use prior

    • @CriticalRocket

      The battlemechs I have always used the in game models, mainly due to them being in the game so it was a way to link gameplay and lore. I have toyed with the idea of making lorewarriors for the 'mechs PGI don't seem to want to do, so if I do make them it would be with the images instead.

    I love the fafnir, the heavy gauss rifle is such an awesome weapon in my opinion, I wish I could readily mount it on most mechs, which is probably why I love the apocryphal Misery, it lets me put on in the stalker chassis.

    This was may baby during Mechwrrior 4 Mercenaries. I just wished i could get it earlier in the campaign.

    Just picked up the Fafnir with twin Hvy Gauss and MPLs...it's like it was built just for me.

    • @CriticalRocket
      @CriticalRocket  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's such a fun 'mechs. I have honestly had the best assault rounds of my time on MWO using it. Probably because of the 50 point alpha from the gauss alone but still, the thing is terrifyingly good.

    A FINE Steiner Design! More excllent content! Are you reading these from technical readouts? I was thinking of going after a few for reading into more of my favourite designs like the Zeus, Banshee, Centurion and Hunchback :)

    • @CriticalRocket
      @CriticalRocket  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yep, all of the text is from the TRO. The earlier TRO's (3025 and 2750) have much better and more in depth write ups. The 'mechs you mention have way better content in 3025 than the fafnir here printed in 3067.

    Somehow we need to get you to remake all the old videos in this new(far superior) visual style. :P

    • @CriticalRocket
      @CriticalRocket  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      If there was a way I could update the original video on youtube without losing the views I honestly would. Otherwise I would have to remake them and it would be the same content sadly.

      Devastator! Then I can make a instruments of destruction video.

    Nice mech but too heavy for me also am don't know did am wanna be a camper or sniper ... :) Thanks for store ...

    • @LupusAries
      @LupusAries 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Camping is not viable in them, you generally have to move a lot use it to maximum effect and the FNR-5 the Heavy Gauss model is actually a brawler and to use it's full damage potential you have to get close.
      But oh boy is it fun then.......I mean I made an Urbie disappear in one Salvo and you criple mechs like crazy.
      The best build for the FNR-6U for example is the dual UAC-20s and 4 MLs.
      Or on the FNR-5E the most fun build is dual UAC-20+2SRM6+SRM4. (originally had 4 SRM6, but went for the 4s as I wanted one more ton of UAC-20 Ammo).
      But one of the most fun builds is my rebuild for the -6R 2 AC10s and 2 MRM-20.........I just call it the Sandblaster and on my first test run in Quickplay......I went on a slight reign of terror with that one, shredding 3 mechs inside one minute and then halving that Direwolf......before he got me due to overheating..
      And except for my -5 all carry AMS, as it is our unite practice to have AMS on nearly every mech, since that really wrecks any lrm-boaters day. ;)
