The latest mech from Prosk is stomping off the production line and will be available to pilots looking to line up and gun down their foes from afar! The Reaper is the machine for any mission that involves venturing alone into enemy territory. Effectively combining precision and speed, this high-accuracy light mech is the steel embodiment of rogue-like flexibility.

Are you eager to add a Reaper to your garage_ Anticipate more details on this speedy sniper once it passes standard safety inspections!

Wow, just a few hours ago I was just saying in my head how it would be cool to have a A-class sniper. What a coincidence lol.

I don't recognize that primary weapon. Interesting. The Sharpshooter already has a pretty steep learning curve, I wonder how this one will pan out...

Hmm I'd like to see it have it's own unique special ability (if the name is anything close to the unit from SC2, maybe something like a duration-based extra boost to jumping up and down areas), but seeing as some of the special abilities are copied between classes (damage buff, artillery turret mode), my guess it's going to be a pulse-fire primary like a mix between hawkins/mini-flak, and the special ability might be the cloak from the infiltrator, judging from " any mission that involves venturing alone into enemy territory" and "rogue-like flexibility".

Yayayayayay. Brings back fond memories of past battles againt Beefc4ke.

I feel like the special ability of this mech should be something like a target painter. Marks a target/targets from long range, and increases the damage dealt to those targets for a short time. Maybe a max of three targets_ I feel like a 1 target limit wouldn't make it viable in high skill team games.
