Hitting a mech with a Harpoon will begin to pull both mechs together with heavier mechs being pulled less that lighter mechs. That means a light mech firing a harpoon will be pulled towards a heavier target. This force can be countered in part by running against the pulling force or enhanced by jumping into the air. Therefore a light mech can pull around a heavy if they run backwards fast enough or use a Harpoon has a quick gap closer if they jump and let them.
The harpoon effect last for 10 seconds and multiple hits will refresh the duration.
- note: The harpoon only works on the stomach or left pec. It doesn't work on the right pec.
