just when attacking, each time i would relog thinking it would go away, eventually i had to high tail it back to a terminal and once i beamed up i didn't disconnect anymore, still too scary to attempt anything that might put my mech at risk of being destroyed.  I heard other people complaining about disconnects also last night, so it may have been something to do with the server yesterday.

I did the same thing, completed 2 of those and decided the time vs risk vs reward was so off it would not be feasible, solo at least.  E-war swarming mechs suck meh!

Energy Mgmt and faction robot control are nice, but, this is meant for a new character just starting out.  I won't be in any assault bot anytime soon, so the faction robot cntrl won't do much good for the points invested.  Energy Mgmt is one of the first ones I planned on getting after more EP.  I think I am gonna dump some points into Reactor Expansion as well since I see now that I won't be able to equip 4 lasers with this setup on the first bot.

Navigation would be nice yeah, BUT, just getting that to 9 would take almost an entire weeks worth of EP.....Speed is nice but I think since I'm going to focus on PvE primarily for a little while that there would be better places to spend it.  I'll definitely be upping that before I do any PvP though.

I've done some planning and come up with this as a starter build for my laser focused combat mech, hoping some vets/beta testers will chime in and give me some suggestions.  If I'm missing something really useful or if I'm dumped points into something useless let me know.  I'm planning on primarily PvE combat for awhile to get some funds up.  I should have enough EP by the end of the week for this build.

What does the "Optimize" button in the Attribute Editor do?  I can't tell that it changes anything.

Also, is there a way to link your build for others to critique?  Thanks a ton for putting this together!

Edit:  Nevermind about the Optimize button, I just figured out what it's purpose was.
