Fastest mech possible

[The Slap Man]

Wich mech would need to be, its upgrades (Tech tree and Engines) and how fast would it be?

[cerebus23]

incubus is 145 and there is a meme build on the mwo forums for "fastest mech" build here it is

arctic wolf clan mech 147

[salamatmahal]

It's not the fastest mech ever, but the vapor eagle rival with xl400, masc, and speed tweak goes very very fast ~150 and will be the fastest vapor eagle you will find.

Some of the faster mechs that I run 'on the regular' are the VPR-B ~140 after tweak and the Osiris 4D ~165 after tweak.

The fastest mech possible, via sprint, is the Flea with MASC and a 170 engine, followed by the consistently fastest mech the Commando with an 240 engine.

Not accounting for Skilltree (which is an 7,5% increase on top of these numbers):
Flea can get up to 165.2 kph with MASC
Commando gets up to 155,5 kph

And then we have Osiris, Spider, Incubus and Assassin Sharing 3rd place at 153,9 kph

Last time I noticed the Commando is just slightly faster max speed than any other mech.

[Zyrrashijn]

Correct. The commando is the fastest mech without any enhancement in the game right now. A Flea can go even faster while on MASC.

[Splyncryth]

Locust-3M variant can go 165 with full speed tweak. But I believe the flea can go faster because of MASC.

[Naut]

I hate to necro this thread, but the flea can get up to 177kph with masc and full speed tweak from my experience. Don’t remember the build’s engine though: it might be XL 170

don’t know if this is a recent adjustment though

^I don't think I have ever had more fun in a VGL.

(This is purely a meme build and is in no way recommended if you want to win the game or get high scores, etc.)

I gotta try this MASC flea just for giggles.

[salamatmahal]

Played the yippy veagle again last night. Can confirm it remains fast and fun!

Flea with MASC can hit top speed of 170ish when using the masc and 140? 150? or so without the MASC

The flea and LCT can get the most speed from the smallest engines at 20 tons

[Captain Norrec]

In my personal experience as a Flea main (and also testing it as we speak), it seems the FLE-19 along with the R5K can go 164kph with full speed skills, but the FLE-20 (the one with MASC) can get up to 177.6kph when sprinting, with a base max speed of 148kph (also with full speed skills btw, no calculations needed).

[spartanspud]

I made on 10% faster.

[lockwoodx]

pretty sure my commando does over 160

[Fastspectre]

who remembers hunchbacks going 140 ish or what it was with 9 small lasers?
yea and flea should be fastest
