I've been thinking about it(but not sure) on how to master the Clan Wave III when it is received.

Something like this(?):

Ebon Jaguar

Shadow Cat*

Arctic Cheetah*

Executioner

*: Don't know which one should go 2nd or 3rd.

Suggestions on which order to go through when leveling these mechs that are yet to arrive in June/July?

Well, the Ebon and Executioner arrive first. So you have a month to get them both elited. I generally prefer not to pilot Assaults so I will start with the Ebon, but who knows, maybe the Executioner will be nimble enought to use.

After that I personally will elite the Artic Cheetah first because I really like lights. Then again I may elite the Shadow Cat first if MASC is really cool.

The Ebon Jaguar is a MUST for me to start with first: It'll have the ability to mount Dual Guass without having to sacrifice any armor or firepower for just the dual Guass.

The Executioner, however, will definitely will be a laser vomit mech with that 7 energy hard point variant.

For the next 2 yes the Arctic Cheetah WILL be loads of fun to run around in, moves as fast as a Ice Ferret and has more firepower than the Kit Fox/Adder.

For the Shadow Cat it will be a difficult one. Based on that 7 ballistic hard point it may be considered to keep 6 of them and swap a omnipod for a energy one. That way you can run 6 machine guns for fending off those pesky lights and have the range with the energy hard point, like a large pulse or erppc.

June 16th: Executioner and Ebon Jaguar (plus a fourth Variant of each chassis for Early Adopters)
July 21st: Shadow Cat and Arctic Cheetah (plus a fourth Variant of each chassis for Early Adopters)
July 21st: Banked Premium Time, Badges, and Faction Content (Faction Content is based on player selection; ETA for Faction Content selection is not yet available)


This is all clan wave III stuff. SO.

your Leveling of mastery would be...


1) Executioner
2) Couldron Born
3) Arctic Cheetah
4) Shadowcat.


All of these are good mechs but some are less 'meta' then others.

Executioner is good but the couldron born will be more popular. So executioner will give you good que time and a good time to rub into peoples faces off your 120 USD mech

Couldron born Second as the heavy mech que will go down a bit and would give you time to learn from others to see how they did there couldron borns as this is a quite confusing mech as it has A LOT of builds possible.

Arctic Cheetah is possibly the best clan light mech in game BUT it is a light mech meaning no one will play it to much compared to the shadowcat or in general. Meaning low que time (and people may still be at it for the larger mechs)


Shadowcat is last for similar reason the couldron born is second... BUT this time it's different. It has MASC, and it's fast. It can do 3 missile hardpoints, people right about here would be doing there arctic cheetah... sooooo you are here running around in a streak mech that can out run them when MASC is activated =P


That's my list

[Repasy Cooper]

I'm gonna master them all at once. Quickest way to master them all is take advantage of the 2x bonus, then move onto next mech and do the same.

The Executioner is working on an XL380 engine (400 being the Btech cap), which makes it at 64.8 before speed tweak (71.2~71.3 after tweak). Would probably feel like a Battlemaster with Highlander's jump.

I'll probably work on this first, get the harder one done with before i work on the easier mechs.

Ah yes, 2x bonus is going to be important while working on the Executioner, unfortunately. At least the Artic Cheetah doesn't need that.
