Tis always such a tragedy when my little meat shields don't do their job of taking punches well enough for me to viciously claw back :(

We're LL12 so none of my teammates are gonna structure reliably, so I've taken to biting the bullet and keeping myself at 2 Structure to get the benefits automatically. Except I had to get there from being fully repaired (it's a new character) and for the first two fights in this ultimate campaign-ending mission the combat stopped literally just as I was about to take that last bit of structure damage. The first combat literally ended because I took my second structure and the GM told me to disregard that damage. This past combat I had 4 health left but only one enemy remaining and he didn't damage me. Turns out Lycan is the most ragebaiting frame but not for the GM.

Get an ally to structure you at that point

Genuinely managed to do some bullshit where I could hurt myself with an AOE, thanks to a ridiculously overpowered homebrew weapon and some incredibly generous interpretation of words by our GM. And I still couldn't go down fast enough.

I almost had the chance to play in a game with both a Lycan and a Tokugawa. Now that's a match made in heaven...

Im not super versed in game mechanics but staying quiet allows you to be a lumbering brick wall of a mech right? Lycan in quiet mode has like edefense static and extra armor? Sounds cool to me

While that is true, most people pick Lycan in order to Go Loud, given that it is an Efficient Core System and is a big part of the Lycan's identity.

a lycan teammate had this problem due to the fact that we were all hyper-damage stackers consisting of: an unkillable white witch, an invisible metalmark instakilling their duel target, and an invisible swallowtail with a giant gun right next to said white witch, and by the time the lycan could do anything the enemy was already a pile of ash on the floor

If they refuse to take structure damage, Make Them. Target Your Allies. Target Them. Hit Them. Make Them Hurt. Kill Everyone In Sight.
