As a pilot whose played a while my advice is.
Cheese
Eat
Before its gone.
An when the new cheese arrives
Repeat
I'm like helping PGI test their cheese and cheese balance.
Yummy
Never ending cycle
I think I detect a pattern!

I thought there was going to be a message hidden in the first letter of each line. :(

If you take the first letter from each line it spells ace bar iyni.
I thought that much was obvious!

It's not trash, just very situational. It depends MOSTLY on people turning the corner and not backtracking fast enough to run away from the double power fists it can mount. I think I have like 6MPLs 5SPLs in one build.

Problem is the EXE has most of its hardpoints in knuckle drag arms. It NEEDS to be used in specific scenarios. It's merely a stronger GAR, when it has MASC available to use.

As for the MDD, it's only good for boating missiles. Great for CW. Not great for public queue IMO, lol!

Meh.. I only run my Executioner with 2 cLPL and 4x ERMLs and 26 DHS. Having 33 damage in high torso hardpoints is nice, and the left arm energy hardpoints aren't as low as the right arm. One of my favorite mechs that is.

Precisely. If you run that build, it's certainly not as good as a TBR/WHK running the same. Hell the TBR does it best followed by the EBJ. The EXE and WHK have huge hitboses which definitely doesn't favour them.

You're stating something subjective, ie. your preference. Like I said,most mech are viable, depending on the pilot. Hell, I can make the SMN/MLX work sometimes, doesn't mean they're viable or not trash.

Well, the EXE has more jump altitude, MASC, more armor, and better shield arms than a Timber Wolf. It lacks some mobility sure, but MASC makes it an amazing poker. And I would NEVER take a Warhawk over an Executioner. Ever.
