For free events, the most expensive ones you don't have. 100t assaults and work down from there. Warlord.waa my pick as I have everything else in that range.

I like to use the event MC to buy the non-meta ones when they're on sale... But freebies go with the top end.

Is Marauder Blight good?
Anni Mean Baby? <MRM + LPPC spam!

Or may I choose a second Dreadnaught instead?

I love the Blight and you can do some fun stuff with it. Twin RAC5, 3LMG, 2ERML engine, ammo, and DHS is fun to play. I have a second using 2UAC20, 2LMG, and 2ML which is a real beast. https://mwo.nav-alph...3d70ef_MAD-BLGD Put the 2UAC20 in one group set to chain fire and in 4 seconds you dump 80 points of damage at which point you are likely able to dump another 80 in another 4 seconds before stepping back. That doesn't count the LMGs and ML.

Blight is very good, though also currently on sale for MC for another day or two. I would pick it up that way if you have MC to spare. I cannot speak to Mean Baby as I cheerfully detest Annihilators, but I don't really think any half-sanely fitted Annihilator is going to be bad.

You can certainly choose a 'Mech you already own, yes. Some players do so specifically so they can use the same 'Mech more than once in a drop deck for drop deck events. I have considered acquiring a second Scorch a number of times, to have a couple different loadouts at the ready. Dreadnaught's a beast, if you enjoy it and do well with it you can do so, though if you don't do a lot of drop deck play it might be best to try something you don't already have.
