Overview[ | ]

The first attempt at creating an energy-based Locust, the LCT-1E comes with two Medium Lasers and two Small Lasers. It can mount as many as six energy weapons. Unfortunately, this variant drops the torso hardpoint.


Strengths[ | ]

  • Fast with a small profile, the LCT-1E can carry armament comparable to heavier light mechs while being able to climb slopes that other mechs cannot.
  • The most hardpoints of any Locust

Weaknesses[ | ]

  • Light chassis weight results in very light armor
  • The LCT-1E is hampered by a 10-15 degree smaller torso twist than other variants.
  • The only Locust without a torso hardpoint
