It really doesn't help that my 2 favorite chassis are the Cata and Stalker so I would like your thoughts on the matter.

My worry with the Ilya is will it just feel like im driving a slightly different 3D?

My worry with Misery is the That 1 ballistic slot will not turn out as fun as i thought it would on a Stalker

So like I said the chassis i like equally . Gimme input! plz!

Also in the world of Clan mechs with so much fire power which would fare better?




P.S. funny story , I asked TOLD the old lady i was going to spend 55 bucks on a giant clan robot and she said "what is it made of gold? " I said "funny you should ask that...."

Misery and mets are both a lot of fun! The mets can load 3 uac5s and 3mlas and put on a lot of damage as direct fire support. The misery does asymmetric builds really well, showing a shield side to enemies between alphas of 40 or so damage. The reduced range and speed of the ac20 hit it hard, but I still like 2 ppcs and an ac20 all on the left best of the builds the misery can offer.

ugh

see this is my problem 3 uac 5's sound fuuuuun or just 3 ball slots

and a stalker with a Ball sounds fuuuuun

Ok if they are both equally fun and you could get one atm which would you get first?

I have both, and love both, but if I had to choose I would go for my Misery. As I've mentioned elsewhere, that's my go-to-'Mech when nothing else works - I always seem to do well in that thing for some reason!

It can take an incredible beating under the right circumstances, and give as good as it gets.

Ilya. Cataphract is imo a better chassis. Misery in itself is a lot of fun, but the rest of Stalkers are completely and totally outclassed by Battlemasters.

Every single Cataphract - with the exception of 2X - is a straight G bossmeal.

Headbasher, I don't pilot either have a grudge against both for "winning the meta/fad of the month" over mechs I like artistically. As much as I would rather have a stalker on my team with fire support for the medium and lights I normally play, mobility of ilya > power of misery, but mechbay of stalkers is more helpful and diverse than mechbay of phracts, IMO.

Helmstiff, what is wrong or hard about the 2x, did you mean 4x b/c the engine is capped low? What goes wrong with two srms in an arm?

Edited for incorrect autocorrect.!! Haha
