I completely agree. When I was new to the game (I'm a Founder, so I had MCs to spend), I made the big mistake of buying an Atlas chassis by MC.
The very best MC purchase you could make are from mastery packs. By the time you've used up your premium time plus the CBill bonus from the hero mech, you would have made millions.
The next best are mech bays. Other than those two and maybe a few well-chosen colors and maybe a camo scheme or two to decorate my mech I try to be real miserly about my MC spending.
Cbills quickly evaporate if you use modules. tell you honestly you can ignore them until you have about 30 million cbills and spending 6 million per module won't hurt so much.
Again, you don't need modules. really. get em when you're filthy rich okay? focus more on refining your playstyle, teamwork, and having a great time. In the end, you will have more fun if you play it your way :-)
************************
the Maulers are solid, and the variants all have their own specifif play style that can suit whatever mood you're in. the Misery stalker is a solid mainstay. I enjoy the Banshees for their extreme battlefield endurance, the Atlas is a sentimental favorite, but all of my variants for this chassis are short range brawlers. There are other really good assaults too. No mech is really useless. you can find a way to run them well if you give it enough thought.
