I like the Ferroblast, but to be honest - if you don't care about the goodies in the mini "battle pass" or the extra speed of the Ferroblast, spend the extra $5 and get the Otomo pack instead - you get the K2 along with 5 other mechs. The K2 has standard AC velocity +20%, PPC Heat -5% (All varieties), PPC Velocity +20% (All Varieties), as well as a generic -10% Heat and +10% Range quirk. (I mean you could also buy the regular K2 from the in-game store but the Otomo has cool bolt-ons.) Edit: I misspoke about the number of mechs in the pack, it's 6 in total (Dragon, Catapult, Charger, Hatamoto-Chi, Battlemaster, Mauler)
10:20 Point of interest: dropping the CASE in the legs would let you get Light Ferro. Not saying it's worth it necessarily, just that it'd be a way to do it. It only saves you what, like 0.7 tons, so only enough to get you another half ton of ammo.
PGI, what about those quirks suggests a 'ferro blast' ? Perhaps some kind of projectile quirk? Well played anyways, at least the extra armour should help hold onto the weapons a little longer.
TBH; I think the Ferroblast is currently in a good enough state. It's not great but it's perfectly serviceable. I'd rather cauldron/PGI put some more work into the Behemoth.
Even with the armor quirks it received, this mech is still a bit clunky and underpowered. If you want to support PGI and enjoy the look of the mech and associated battlepass goodies, you should absolutely scoop it up. However, do not do so under the illusion it is very strong or better than other options for doing the same thing.

I love the synergy between Light AC5s and Light pps, but I never knew you could fit all this on a catapult.
Oh hey i ran this exact build! its a blast (hah)

Big Ups

Ferroblast is my kinda light mech 👌
I am a simple man: I see a Catapult, I hit Like
this looks fun
The great high mounts are a big plus on this fast moving heavy. I wonder if that was the reasoning behind the modest quirks it was given?

Soldier why is your weapon not empty sergeant I ran out enemies
This is essentially how I run my K2 except it's 2xLAC5 & 4xLPPC due to the different hard points. Nowhere near as mobile as the Ferroblast, though.
A heat reduction quirk would be nice.
Would like to see you contrast vs this K2 build:

I have this loadout on my BlackWidow (minus the speed boost)...I don't know if all torso mounts is better or not though.

I dislike "Mining Collective" myself.
