Build #3: 124 kph, ECM and 4 JJ? That is one unique and fun mech to play! A nice match against clan Shadow Cat.

#1 - the combination of MPL as primary armament combined with the speed, JJs and ECM rocks the boat.

[Agathos11]

#1 is the one.

#2 is a mess. #3 is okay, but holding non-pulse mediums on target, while moving at that speed, is not something to ask of newbies. Or some experienced players for that matter.

Build 3 is probably the best build of the three. Good damage, great speed and ECM and a Phoenix Hawk has to have Jump Jets.

1 and 2 are too hot, and 3 is just a good blend. However, It is almost the same as the Nova, Just faster. I vote 3, just please keep some diversity. Give me a reason to choose one mech over another, and make them have things that make them appealing in their own way.

I vote for #3

[Todo Sandybanks]

Build #3 because 6ml is not too hot while still outputting good damage. Good speed, lots of jump jets and ecm are great for new players.

You're a year and a half too late to vote.

Just got my first PHX a month or two ago. Now my absolute favorite mech. I have I think 5 variants? Including the 6 X med laser one discussed here. That's one of my favorite mechs, and the only mech I've ever run straight stock. Excellent choice.

Side note - you think PGI would grace a player with their own custom variant and/or skin if that individual made... let's say, financial or artistic contribution?

Do PGI staff have their own custom variants?

I think Legend Killer is such a mech, but that's the only one I know of.
