Lucius McMurphy:
The Valkyrie is a solid stable mech.
Most pilots start out as light here and most stay that way. You'll understand why after you play for awhile. Depending on your cash good all/most energy mechs can include...
Wasp-W, Stinger-G, Mongoose, Javelin-F, Firefly, Spider, Jenner-f, Panther.
Really is all depends on what you want to do with the mech, what your skills/perks are and what your long term goal is.
I would add Wolfhound to that list too.
Though really if youre willing to put a little time and care into modifications, the bigger concern is not weapons, but the size of the mech and movement profile.
It's much easier to modify the weapons you want onto the mech, than to rework the movement profile.
Also keep in mind speed really is a fine asset to have on the battlefield, but it comes at the expense of other things, usually weight to modify to tailor the mech to your liking.
Resolving auctions now btw...
