PHX-1B(C) with the mobility of JJs while taking advantage of PPC and MG quirks. Even if the new skill-system eliminates the quirks, I assume the equivalent support for these weapons can be configured.

PXH-1B

I hate having unbalanced JJs, but it was necessary given where the ECM is mounted on this thing. It has okay punch and pretty solid speed, with enough JJs to feel really responsive.

3 Large Pulse Lasers, MASC
- Fast enough to keep up with / away from most Clan Heavy 'mechs
- Pretty cool running
- Can Alpha
- There will finally be a Trial 'mech with MASC
- Not too much back armour, but more than usual, to help new players

I call her..

'Ninja Hawk' Or MechyBruceLee

PHX-2

(6) Medium Lasers
(4) Jump Jets
(1) ECM
XL345 ( 124 kph ; 132 kph speed tweaked )
304/306 Armor

She sticks and moves, and never gets locked onto because of ecm. 30 point alpha after 30 point 'jumpy' alpha.

Very Agile.

I called Shadow Hawk SHD-2K...


'Coup De Grace'

It WILL finish off an injured enemy mech as it swoops over the top of it with its 5 JJ.

Do new players know about ghost heat though? So they won't alpha all the time and get the heat penalty?

I would like to suggest two of my favorite builds for these chasis:
The 1B and 1K

The 1B is interesting as I decided to mount an AC10, and 3 Med lasers to it instead of the usual PPC builds we see. This with ECM can be deadly.

Smurfy: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...71441f7810cd417




And the 1K is a speedy build with 6 Small Pulse and 2 Mediums. I recently forgot just how fun this build can be.

PHK-2

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...3820962c4b58e58

6 Medium Pulse Lasers

ECM

108.4 KPH / XL280

5 Additional Double Heatsinks

1 Jump Jet

K/D ratio with this mech: 3.23

Average Damage: 520

This mech is an absolute beast. Unparalleled maneuverability. Respectable firepower.

Currently one of my favorite mechs.
