hoping that the community can guide me in the right direction on this one.
I recently returned to MWO from a very long break and since returning I've
been attempting to engross myself in the Assault Mech weight class, in
particular my focus has been on the Inner Sphere.
Since my return I've been running three variants of the Zeus while occasionally
dabbling in the Pretty Baby which I've owned for a very long time and also
jumping into the Misery on occasion. I've been having mixed success with all
of my assaults. I've found the Zeus' to be quite a heavy learning curve compared
to the PB and the Misery. My PB is currently set-up as a Brawler/Striker utilising
SRM's along with other weapons, the Misery is set up for short-medium range
too.
So my question. I am looking for an Assault to fulfil the role of the tip of the spear
for all intents and purposes. I love the idea of taking on a pivotal role within the
team and it seems as though there are few pilots out there who are willing to lead
the way into the fray.
My criteria is simple. I'm looking for an Inner Sphere Assault Mech to fulfil the role
of what would be classified as a Juggernaut in BM Classic. I'm looking to be that
tip of the spear, to be driven forth to allow my team to take the fight to the enemy.
As it stands my own candidates for this role seem to be either the Atlas or, ironically,
the Cyclops.
Thank you for reading the above, I apologise for the waffle but I look forward to reading
your advice, comments and suggestions.
