Currently running this build with great success: WVR-6R "Mini-Dragon"
Better to fill up the RT with half tons or would that increase the likelihood of an ammo stack being critted?
Either way I feel it's just as potent as the Dragon because it's often overlooked on the battlefield yet can still lay down almost the same amount of dakka. Granted all you can mount is an ML or MPL but it's something I can (and do) live with.

I've also had a good time with the WVR-7K and 3xSRM6. or 6K with 3LPL.. Much more fun than the hunchback counterparts.

I think the advantage of the ac5's is the fact that if you add the level 5 ac5 cool down module to the quirks, you would have ~52% cool down for the ac5's. That's like a heavier ac 10 that can fire as fast as ac2's... Serious dakka. The only disadvantage is the fact that both are in the same arm.

I enjoy my wolverines, but compared to what I could do with them kill/damage wise most mediums were better performers. The shadowhawk had superior ballistics without loosing missile hardpoints and the griffin can twist amazingly.
With the quirk system the wolverines and other mechs get a new chance. My 6R was an SRM boat, the 7K a brawler with no good plan for the 6K. Now my 6K is sporting large pulse but I have not settled on changes to the others.

I wouldnt say, they are bad. In fact, they are my best Mediums atm.
I guess its much about, having all Weapons in the Arm, wich ppl dont like so much. Or its maybe the Optic and Size too. Its a real huge Mech. Well oki, most Mediums can spitt an Stalker on the Top easy as well.
Every Heavy looks smaller as your Wolerine and can carry decent more Firepower and Amor for only 5+ tons more, so why taking a Medium?

As for the 6R, I might try the dual AC5 build, but I think it's better to stick to a single one and have SRMs & jump jets too (as well as some extra speed).

One of the reasons I bought them is that the 6R is largely overshadowed by the Dragon (less likely to get its quirks nerfed if few people use them). So don't tell Russ and PGI how great they are! Shhhhhhh

Oh, I should mention I generally ran this with an XL340 or XL315. Speed is life with the Wolverine, IMO.

Thanks eFTy. Good advice. Will stick with the current loadout as the Ac10 works well against the big guys and the SRMs+ML cluster does a goodish job at seeing off lights.Need to think of a way of squeezing in a bigger engine though......

This ^^^ I wouldn't think of running a Wolvie with less than a 300. Haven't had a chance to play much with loadouts since the quirks. My best before was a 7K with 3x A-SRM6, 3 ML and XL 335. I use it for hit-and-run and backstabbing mostly, but you can give most other mechs a good run for their money in a brawl.
