Spider 5D. If you've fought me, you know why.

[K0M3D14N]

Commando 1B or 3A. I take a great deal of pleasure in murdering Atlai with my alpha strikes of 2x SRM6 launchers and 2x Medium Lasers.

[Stargoat]

ERPPC CDA-2B. Good, fast sniper.
4x AC2 CTF 4X. Good, slow sniper.
SDR 5D. Pretty much my favourite light 'mech.

[Ozric]

C1-F.

[Commander Kobold]

my mech stats used to be one line, then a tried a trial stalker :/

[Valdemaar]

I buy a new mech at least every other week and occasionally multiple mechs in a single week so it's hard to be known for any one particular machine. Closest mechs that came close being my signature mechs were the Cicada-2A (5 SL/1LL), Spider-5D (ER PPC), Trebuchet-7M (3 SRM6/2 ML/1 LL), Atlas-D-DC (AC20/2 ML/ SRM 4,4,6 + Artemis), and Stalker-5S (4 ER PPC/ 4 SRM4).

Of those, I've only sold the Cicada and haven't really experimented with any new builds of the others in a long time.

[TerebNeerg]

CPLT-C1(F)

1 ER-PPC
2 Artemis LRM-15
2 Medium lasers (CT)
1 TAG
3 tons of LRM ammo.
15 DHS
300XL engine

I'm getting about 40% accuracy with my LRMs because I usually fire from a flanking position and can uncover targets with both PPC and TAG.

Now if only I could actually paint it something nice looking...

dakaphract 4x.

[Kerrisis]

I have two:
Cataphract CTF-4X with quad AC5s. Most people overlook me in it for larger targets. Their mistake.
Atlas AS7-D-DC with Gauss, 3xSRM6(Artemis), and ECM. An absolute *monster*!

[XSerjo]

Jenner-F with 6xML and BAP. Because it can run fast, jump high enough, it has firepover that can wound heavy mech and... I'm able to leg Craven before die!

[Murku]

Love me my FLAME, but with mech bays still to fill I feel bad wasting XP on not leveling something.

350XL, 2 PPC, 1 MPL, 1 SRM4. 16 DHS keeps me happy grinding fire buttons.

If Dragons are Hard Mode maybe I should focus on something else? Then I might actually be good....

[Dracol]

Nice variety so far. I was half expecting splatpults,3ls, and ddc to be the only ones.

For me it was initially a dual ppc cicada, then the spider came out.

Now though, I've dropped the erppc spider and run dual erppc trebs almost to the complete exclusion of all others.

2A Cicada with 280XL, 2 LPL and 4 SL works a dream, I could never aim PPCs at 140kph! *8(

That's how I feel about lasers. I mean, how the heck can you keep em on target outside of pinpoint range?

No chance with LL or ML, so its either MPL or LPL/SL with their really tight burn times. Logic would suggest that SPL would also be effective, but the Devs apparently are content with keeping them the ugly duckling of the energy family instead of something viable.

True story.

[Hurricane Bob]

my purple COM-2D, bringing the pain to jenners in closed beta and now hunting 3L's like their on open season
love him!

[Deathlike]

Raven 3L... though it might change to a Jenner at some point depending on what they actually do to ECM.

[Autologus]

The CN9-A I am the "Zombie Master". That thing takes a beating like no other and is deadly until utterly destroyed.

[Stingz]

Purple/Black Centurion-A/AL, that one zombie mech. I'm always shooting something till I'm down.

[Grifthin]

Hunchbacks - especially 4J, 4sp AND 4P.
