I am currently working through three adder mechs. I want to know which one to keep, the prime, the D, or the A. And which is the best build recommended for the adder. So far the best one I know that I tried is the ERPPC/3ERML for the prime. But what about the others? Which ones have you tried?

2 LPL for wubwub trolling. Use torso mounts for best effect.

Man I like em all especially since I can just use any omni on them, I would say keep the one with better quirks for what you use most and just use diff omnis.

[Brody319]

2 LLs, 2 MPLs
Large lasers in the STs
MPLs in the arms

Also, the adder has no uniqueness between each variant, so just pick one and switch the omnipods.

Haven't tried any of them. But the one, i hate to deal the most with is the SRM-boat (D-torsos and A-arms)
The 2 ERPPC one is annoying too.

I like to keep things simple.

The variants don't matter as much as which omnipods you use. Pick a weapon set and build your Adders around it. Refer to the omnipod quirks here: http://snafets.de/mwo/

I've personally had the greatest success with good ol' dual ER PPCs on my Adder Prime, with whichever omnipods affects ER PPCs the best. It takes patience to run because of the heat, but it's great for taking potshots from afar.

My other two Adders use (4) ER medium lasers and (2) large pulse lasers, and as many heatsinks will fit. I've also used Gauss + (3) ER small lasers in the past.
