It seems like the meta is narrowing down to ammunition based weapons (at least from some of baradul's vids).

I suggest the following:

You put forward 3 mechs for 3 different categories...
+All energy weapons
+All ammo weapons
+Balanced ammo and energy weapons (tons used for ammo weapons and energy weapons within 5 tons of each other for assault, 4 for heavy, 3 for medium, 2 for light, 1 for elementals, excluding ammunition weight)

The mech category is randomly decided as you drop.

So you want me to have to build 3 different but "balanced" versions of the 'Mech I want to take into a given Division, but we don't even have the ability to save and reload favorites yet for builds?


This would be in tandem with saving and reloading builds.

Elementals don't exist in MWO...


I know.

And besides, most of my builds for Solaris have *almost* all ammunition based weapons, with lasers included mainly for burst and backup. I don't think any of them fit any of these descriptions. Are those builds just to be made illegal for play in Solaris? If so, why? Because you don't like them?


It is to encourage build diversity. If people could pick maps in qp with certainty, everyone would likely hone in even more on certain meta builds. I don't have a problem with any particular build.

You still haven't really answered my question.

If my builds don't fit your defined categories, can I still use them? Where do they fit?


Did not read as well as I should have.
If not all energy or all ammo based or not balanced tonnage, have a 4th category then for that.

All tags build banned due to unfair firing rate with macros.
