What are the pros and cons of each. I want to get a new heavy chassis, but I'm really not sure which to get. I like the idea of a fast striker/support mech and have pretty much narrowed it down to these 2, but I would be open to other suggestions. What are your thought on them?
Thanks

If you like SRM:s and laserboating Quickdraw is your choice,if more ballistic work with gauss,ac10:s,ac5:s and similar Dragon is better.

Quickdraw hero can do ballistics,but its pretty hard to get to work,couple of good setups exist.

Quickdraw has jump jets and heavy energy armament. Makes a decent jump sniper and/or harasser with PPCs or large lasers, and you can slap a few LRMs on it if you like, or go full brawler with medium lasers and srms.

Dragon doesn't have jump jets and relies on ballistics.

Basically boils down to which weapons you like better, energy or ballistic, and if jump jets are a requirement or not.

I advise waiting for the quirks to hit the server first in any case.

Having said that Dragons are fast strikers, Quickdraws.... not so much.

Quickdraw ...

Sorry, i had to XD

Elited botg and prefer the dragons. Just a matter of taste imo.
Flame (and 1C) is really good though.

Are Quickdraws XL friendly or should they stick to standard engines?

They are XL friendly,they make decent brawlers with STD-engines too.

Stock QKD-5K loadout a bit modified is a good example. Clickety click

Best XL-engine for QKD:s is imo XL340,it allows lots of different builds(6 mpl with good cooling,2ll 4 ml with good cooling,SRM:s with decent cooling and 3 ER LL sniper build).
