I havent found good light builds, so could anyone point best builds for me?

[AlexEss]

I am going to be boring and make a counter-question... in order to point you to a "best" build we need to know how you like to play.

But until the BAP changes i'd say a Raven 3L with streaks and ECM is a decent bet =P

almost any build can work in a light as long as you play it right.

for most of the lights if you arent going over 130kph your gonna have a bad time. after that just make sure you're doing hit and run attacks and you should be golden.

ive always loved the commandos personaly, the ability to swing your arms left and right to aim better is very very underappreciated in the light class.

Well im going to try raven then.

Remember to fit the biggest engine you can in there, speed is life.

Light 'Mech Guides subforum may have some pointers.

Basically, the gist of the advice you'll get is:
* Stick in the largest XL you can fit
* Bolt on as many weapons as you can
* Run like the wind. Don't stop.

The only light I've found near unplayable (as in, there's no good build, there's not even an okay build) is the SDR-5K.

the 5K is like a LL/ML 5D, only with machine guns to crit open sections, and a single LL or ERLL to do the punching. And obviously no ECM. It is the unloved child of the family.

So you're saying the 5K should be driving an Urbie?
