 This Loki is a cooler-running and cheaper alternative to the fantastically expensive Prime loadout. The F drops one [[CERPPC]] and some of its electronics in favor of a pair of [[CLRM10]] racks and three additional [[CERML|clan extended range medium lasers]]. Both [[MG]]s are removed to provide more [[DHS|double heat sinks]], 11 in total, providing the dissipation necessary to run this 'Mech to its limit. [[B-Pod]] helps dealing with enemy [[Battle Armor]] These changes move the Loki F into a fire support-based role and away from a pure sniper setup. Unfortunately, it shares the same relatively fragile armor as the prime and thus, this 'Mech should attempt to stay behind the cover of front-line mechs and its own [[GECM]], providing detailed tactical information via its [[C3]] radar to allies. With no spare tonnage for reloads, the Loki F will be forced to retreat for reloads during extended deployment in a long-ranged capacity.
-Note: This asset has both C3 and GECM, meaning there is no benefit to using [[Radar#Passive Radar|passive radar]] except when covered by allied [[AECM]].

 The '''Loki''' (Clan designation '''Hellbringer''') is a [[Clan]] fire support and electronic warfare [[Heavy Mech]]. Every Loki variant is equipped with [[LAMS]] unit and nearly each variant comes with an impressive array of various additional equipment. Typical Loki variants mount multiple weapon types ranging from [[CGauss]]s to [[MG]]s. Its greatest weakness is its lack of armor, which is on a level of medium mech; a Loki can't stand up to sustained fire for long.

 ===Variant E===
-The E is a very powerful, mid-range weapons platform with substantial brawling capabilities. While the E lacks armor, it more than makes up for it with speed and range. The primary armament is a pair of [[CUAC10]]s, able to hit targets out to 650m. This is supplemented by a pair of [[ERML]]s. [[GECM]] and [[LAMS]] provide cover from missiles and improve the E's chances of getting close enough to use its weapons and help it escape from combat. Once its within 450m, the E also has a [[CSSRM6]], helpful for securing kills with its splash damage. The E's [[Mgun]]s are a bit of an afterthought, but can be useful to prevent [[BA]] from healing and can be useful in fights were [[torso twisting]] isn't necessary.

 ===Variant A===
-{{fluff}}
+The Loki's A variant is a jack-of-all-trades mid- to [[range|long-range]] [[supporting|support asset]] with [[self-NARC]]ing capabilities. At long range, the A is far outclassed by other, better long range choices. At that range, the A only has one [[cERLL]], one [[cUAC5]], and one [[cLRM15]]. All together, inside of 800m, these weapons do decent damage, but excel at no particular role as the A is ineffective as an [[LRM boat]] and is ineffective at [[sniping]]. Where the Loki A really shines is as a self-NARCing asset. Whether the A is in [[brawling]]-range or at long-range, it can NARC a target giving it free reign to [[flick]] its LRMs, and in close combat the A can even flick the missiles from its two [[cSSRM6]]s giving it greater ability to [[damage spread]] than most other mechs. That, coupled with the A's extra armor and [[LAMS]] can make it a very survivable mech, something that most enemies will not expect from a Loki. Almost as an afterthought, the A has two [[Mgun]]s which, for players that can't handle more than five [[weapon group]]s, should be included in the same group alongside the cUAC5 and/or the cERLL.
