*builds are from metamechs [one module swap], skill trees are as I would spec them
The KDK-3 (already the superior mech)
- mostly gains slightly in maneuverability vs. the AS7-S
- loses slightly more durability vs. the AS7-S
- gains sensor bonuses including better seismic and adv. zoom vs. AS7-S
- mostly maintains its heat management advantage vs. AS7-S
- gains MASSIVE weapon buffs vs. AS7-S MASSIVE nerfs
I can keep writing and tl;dr this post or you can just look at the spreadsheet.
I like the idea of the skill tree, but as pretty much everyone is saying, it needs work.

*gold skills are my baseline for any mech, blue are discretionary
