Do you have one mech in your garage mastered and with over a quarter mil exp stock piled?

Do your teammates call out your config when someone asks what y'all are running?

Are your mech stats only one line?

If you were to be well known for one mech with only one config, what would it be?

[Buckminster]

Not that I've played enough to be 'known' for anything, but it'd have to be my Cat K2. Twin ERPPCs and twin MGs, that thing is solid as a rock.

[Tennex]

right now catapult. but i think a lot of people would say the same thing

[Kaspirikay]

Raven 3L lol

[Mjolnir]

Awesome, missile boat - 4xLRM15s, TAG and a Medium Laser. Moves about 65kp/h, I like to be a mobile, responsive missile platform.

Have it completely maxed out.

[LordBraxton]

Probably my AWS-9M

I dont bring it to team matches, but its my favorite pugging ride and my ELO must be low because I wreck face with it

[Serapth]

Ilya and Flame.

Frankly they are the two best c-bill mechs in the game right now ( my founders mech is the Hunchback, which is pure **** ) and I love each for different reasons.

Both often top the leaderboard, win or lose, although Flame is a bit harder when you are on the losing side. ( It needs other friendlies to thrive ).

Pretty standard layouts...

Ilya 2xGauss 3ML or 2ML + more ammo
Flame 4xLL 350XL engine or 4xML + Gauss.

I like gauss rifles apparently...


My most effective mech is the D-DC, as I pug and ECM is so game breakingly um... broken. If I could mount ECM on my Ilya, I would retire the D-DC completely.

The CN9-AH Centurion was my original "signature" ride.

Until PGI decided I didn't need it anymore.

From there, I rode various designs, trying for fit. Gaussapult. CN9-A, CN9-D, and then.... The Cataphract arrived. I would say I have driven my 4X almost as much as all other chassis combined.

So I THOUGHT it had arrived. But then, the disloyal, promiscuous dog that I am, I met a new mistress, my K-series Trebuchet. It seemed a poor fit on paper, but I drive it so well.

But.... A few days hence and the Jagermech will arrive....... And possibly it will take my fancy.

But for now, I drive my lanky, misshapen, beautifully ugly Trebuchet-K.

[xRatas]

I most often run my 2ERPPC+2PPC K2. It was the first mech I bought at the first day of open beta. With MC, as I just couldn't wait to get it, so damn good looking.

[Skinless2]

My Catapult C1, 2 LRM15+ Artemis, 4ML and as much ammo as I can get away with.

[Desist]

Dragon 1N. 350XL 2 Large Pulse Lasers and 2 srm4.
I wish.

My D-DC is pretty much like my signature mech at the moment.

A versatile, yet simple configuration of the Avatar, the F configuration is armed with a pair of ER PPC and an LB-X Autocannon/20. A MechWarrior can utilize twin ER PPC for long range combat and once it closes in it can let loose with the armor shredding LB-X AC/20. These potent weapons are backed up by the two hardwired Medium Lasers. Additionally, for added mobility, the F configuration can jump up to one hundred and twenty meters.

I base most of my Cataphracts (they look so similar!) around the Avatar TRO's. If they work, they work

Well its not my signature mech from anywhere else, but my 4SP is very fun and have a hard time trying to pick something else I want so that would be it.

Pretty stock just with Artemis AMS and a slightly larger engine. Good solid mech.

[Ialti]

Sorry. I switch up my builds too much to really have a set favorite.
I would guess my Knell is the longest-stable build.

[MasterNeko]

jenner JR7-D 3 medium lasers + 2 srm 4

[Dreadnought13]

I switch between my Ilya and another 3D, love them 'Phracts. ilya 2xgauss 3xML, 3D 2xLL 1xgauss 2xML

[DaZur]

If you see me in anything other than my Phract -1X... I'm either grinding my Founders Atlas or mastering something else.

I have two camo schemes:
- Mantis green / Black = When I'm feeling loud and proud. It's a scheme that just yells "shoot me".
- Light tan / Black = When I just want to blend in...

[Yokaiko]

I guess raven.....I seem to spend the most time in it.

Other than that Dragons, when I want to play MWO on hard mode.

[Major Derps]

AS7-RS, lovingly nicknamed 'Shorty'. Hard as hell to handle, but a beast when done right.

[El Bandito]

In terms of usage and success ratio:


1. AS7-D-DC (I am a born Atlas pilot and I love ECM)

2. STK-3F (not used much anymore cause **** Alpine Peaks)

3. CTF-1X (my lasers will follow the enemy to hell)
