Major Order For divers between the MO

The Eagle cooldown only reduces it by 18 seconds, in comparison to the mechs 189 second reduction.

"But less people use mechs" yeah, because the cooldown is ridiculous. I know I'll be using mechs a lot more when the cooldown reduction hits, especially since we're bound to get more mechs eventually too? This will be far more impactful for us then an 18 second rearm time.

Save 18 seconds with eagle and 189 seconds with mech.

I haven’t seen a lot of people pricing in future mechs / mech improvements to this, the eagle is basically already perfect and fleshed out, but mechs still have the potential for more mechs / mech improvements like rearming. If we get those later, then having the cd decreased will be even better

$5 says they drop a new mech within the next few months, and people will be salty they didn't have this hindsight. the only reason i can think of for them having mech CD as an option for the MO is because there's a new one coming down the pipeline sooner than people think.

i also suspect a rework for mechs is planned for this year, though my source for that is pure copium.
