Long Story short, I have a 360XL engine that needs a home. What mech would be the best place for it?

What Mechs do you have? How fast do you want to go? How much spare tonnage do you have? Do you need the C Bills?

The 55 ton mediums come to mind. The Shadowhawk, Griffin, and Wolverine all have a max engine size of 360 (except the WVR-6R which is 375).

I currently have an atlas, a stalker, a cicada, and three catapults.
I'd like something fast, but not as frail as my cicada.

I like Kintaros, but as Elde said, Shadow Hawks are good too. I don't think you are going to want to use that 360 in it though.

I run a 275XL in my Shadowhawks so a 360 would be fast, but I wonder how much weight you would have left for weapons....

Maybe a Jager?

Streaktaro, Streakhawk, Victor, LRM Battlemaster, maybe an Orion?

That's what I can think of using one in.

You can also use those in Dragons and Quickdraws, but I don't know if you'd like those. They require more of a specific style of gameplay.

This. 360XL is the sweet spot for the Victor.

I run a 360XL in my Victors, SHDs and BLR-1S(which I play as a LRM platform.)

You can also put it in Orions if you run them as LRM platforms
