ERLLas, stay with the assaults and shoot what they're shooting. Try not to die. Or play conquest and swarm with other lights. Sell it after you basic/elite it, depending on how masochistic you are. Or don't play it at all and use your GXP to basic it and sell it.

Honestly, it competes with the Locust 1V as the most useless mech in the game

They pack jump jets, load it up with JJ & 2sl & jump in front of enemy LRMs less than 150meters from the launcher, it is not like they can hit you that well, spiders are tiny.

XL280 + 2 MediumPulse + JJ = pro harasser!

With some ridiculous assault mech leaping you can collect 300-500 damage and a kill or 2 .

You will need to learn many JJ maneuvours if you want to be remotely effective in battle. Otherwise toss a ER Large Laser in it and keep your distance while being a scout/sniper + intel/target holder.

Its just as good as the rest of my spiders I can't explain why it just works.

I think it's there to force you to push your piloting skills... the better I get with this thing, the better I get with my other two.

Your job with the 5V is none other than to HAVE FUN. Load it up with all 12JJs, 2ML, and as big an engine as you can after those two are met. Learn to fly. Troll every other mech in the game bigger than you.

Can also zombie if you load a STD engine, though I prefer the Commando 1D for that.
