I admit I had fun in them, but I sold them as I got other mechs to upgrade and I want to prepare for the Wolverine...

Yeah it can be a lot of fun.

So far, I have only piloted the 1V and 3M. The 3M is pretty fun, and I like piloting it. 5MLasers can do enough damage to make me happy.

As for the 1V, it is a cruel mistress. The only thing I have come up with is 1 ERLaser with advanced zoom and 2 MGs. Basically a Sniper. I had a LPLaser, but I don't like getting that close LOL.

Having a lot of fun, although it tends to end abruptly

The 1V is a smaller, faster, non-jumpy 5K, so if I could master that I can master the 1V.
The 3M has a lot of firepower (5ML = 25 point alpha). Shouldn't be a problem to master.
The 3S with quad-SRM2 on chain-fire is hilarious to rock people with. Shouldn't be a problem either.

As far as the "what is master?" argument, I see it like this:

8/8 Basic on three variants = unlocked Elite.
4/4 Elite = Elited, unlocked Master
1/1 Master = Mastered.

There's a difference between unlocking Master and having the 'mech Mastered - as far as I'm concerned anyway.

Tons O' fun but die fast. I'm looking forward to getting them elited so I you get the speed tweak and double basic efficiencies. But I've been working on the battlemasters as I'm more of a heavy/assault pilot.

3M and 3S = 8/8 Basic - SOLD !
1V(P) = 4/4 Elite and working on getting 1/1 Master

This one allowed me to hit 1/1 Master on my Raven 3L and Jenner D(S) since they have been sitting at 4/4 Elite for many moons.

yeah, throwing down that 21,500 xp is a commitment, a commitment rewarded with a mastery.

[Curccu]

What do you mean it's not great? It is GREAT and loads of fun.

And it's all earned by seat time in the 'mech it's applied to. That's my rule, no GXP unlocking for me.

I love the locust because its hilarious 20 ton mech with a 6 ton ballistic and 2 tons of ammo and nothing else! gets my stamp of approval
