Lights - I've been piloting the raven and adder more and doing pretty well. I enjoy the scout poking quite a bit. I've also been using the jenner to get around enemy lines rather effectively. Lastly, I haven't done so well with the arctic cheetah, but i feel like the knife fighting light setup is something that will really help my skills in the longrun.
Medium - Already have the HBK-4P and have had most of my best games on the champion trial mech. I've run the others some, but really haven't felt as comfortable or been nearly as effective with them.
Heavy - Only piloted the catapault and Ebon jaguar. Catapault was quite effective and I enjoyed LRM boating. I did less well with the ebon jaguar, but I've only played one match.
Assualt - Primarily been using the king crab and been enjoying the range on it. I've had mixed results with the atlas and direwolf but that is mostly because of positioning errors I think. Haven't really tried the executioner.
I'm really hoping to find a good mix that I can try in various roles e.g., Brawling, Sniping, LRM Boating, Midrange, poke builds, etc. I'm also hoping for a mix of energy, ballistic, and missle hardpoints to familiarize myself with the various weapon setups. Also I would prefer IS for starting FW, but if you think there's a better combo of clan mechs let me know. Thanks
