Hello there, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post but I thought I'd ask, I'm kind of new to the game, I've played on and off for a while but only recently have been playing seriously, I'm looking for a mech that's decently fast and can carry 2 MRM 30s, and ideally another weapon if possible. As light as possible, I have them on my king crab and would adore to have just the rockets on another faster chassis. Any recommendations?

Hey, welcome back to MWO

MechDB 2.0 also gives you the mech quirks; they are very update!

The GrimMech database mentioned above also has "Meta" (aka 'the best?') list:

For your MRM mechs, you may also consider:

Quickdraw QKD-IV4 (hero mech): -20% Cooldown, MRM hardpoints in LT/RT

Warhammer WHM-7S: -10% Missile Cooldown, +40% Weapon Velocity (works well for Missiles + PPC family)

Gotta second the warhammer 7S. That 40% velocity boost is AMAZING for MRMs.

You want MRM40+MRM20 on the Treb, this gives you tonnage for another heat sink and brings your sustainable DPS from 8.7 to 10.5

I think the Catapult chassis does pretty well with MRMs. You can easily get a couple 30s in there with a few medium lasers for backup, plus bap and ams.
