[Edit] For QP Quick Play ! [/Edit]

Some mechs are so good that you buy multiples of same mech.
==>Which ones do you buy multiples of?

For example:
1st MAL-2P(S) ==> Endo / Standard_Armor
2nd MAL-2P ==> Standard_Structure / IFF
3rd MAL-2P ==> Standard / Standard

For example:
1st WHM-6R ==> Endo / Standard_Armor
2nd WHM-6R ==> Standard_Structure / IFF
<Might buy 3rd WHM-6R(S) if 2022 Annual (Loyalty) Rewards Program counts this>

For example:
MCII-B ==> Never buy 2nd mech, since always 2xUAC10 + 2xUAC5 build anyways.

Caveat: Please leave out the Clan OmniMechs; you only need one of each, and buy the OmniMech parts as needed, which is different from what we are talking above!

Warhammers, Hellbringers, Ebon Jags, Battlemasters.

It sounds like you only play QP not FP? In FP you'll need a lot of duplicates of the same mechs.

‘Yes.

And I would add…
Shadowhawk 2K (3LPL vs 3LPPC+3MRM10)
Dragon 1G (4LL vs 2 HPPC)
Banshee 3M (LPL build vs PPC build)

Just for QP (Quick Play); sorry was not clear!

(I do have multiple copies of BLR-1G for FP, but let's stick with QP for this discussion!)

Outside FP no real reason except got ~infinite amount of CB and too lazy to change build to something I wanna play right now maybe best example HBK-IIC-A
MPL
LPL+ERML
ERPPC
ERPPC+SPL
ERLL
maybe even HLL+ERML

kinda same with Sleipnir, got 4 of those
HGR
LB10-X
UAC5

I have a lot of multiples of Urbanmechs. due to packs and freebies. They all have different builds. I think i have 10-12 urbies..

But no Urbanmech IICs...

Right now 2UAC10 + 2UAC2 is better on the MCII

i can't remember if you have to swap structure or armor for it, but the 4AC5 2ERPPC build is equally as good as boating UACs
