You're not accounting for the heat generation and en cost of frantic vs sacrifice?, please think this topic through one more time

It's just simply a difference in rng, besides buffing a lightweight frantic doesn't seem anywhere close to being a good idea

Grind od6 1v1 till level 200,od8 1v1 till level 250

Now you have me lost

Damage based en works fine in arena,drain based absolutely sucks unless paired with upc or oemp,then again you run out of uses and the opponent will just regen almost 380+ en and finish you off easily, I've tried alot of ways to make drain based en work but it seems only ones with range gaps work
High res builds are pretty much everywhere in top ranks, heat res usually around 130,phys res ranging from 160 to 180, en usually 120 or none at all, sure, the new res drainers drain 60 res per shot, but they cost a pretty hefty amount of backfire, running without no res isn't a better option anyways
No ty, not when they can pull off 1.3k damage combos right off the bat just from a range 5 spawn

Not really. You see it from current perspective of double mods/high res era, which had biggest impact on energy mechs.  Don't forget that the energy block your weaponry AND deal additional dmg in 0 energy.  If you look on pre double mods era energy mechs was kinda common in game, cmon there even was energy mainers who devastated arena so hard that even strongest heat players prefer avoid those battles and able take solo top 3. Also 2nd biggest impact on energy was rise of phys mechs, which got most advantage of double mods+ ton of strong items. 3rd impact for energy mechs was swoop buff which reckt whole arena in living nightmare of heat huggers. In all this periods energy mechs never really had huge buffs/advantages like other 2 types. Now problem in that phys is just over-buffed so hard that if you buff energy that gonna down heat mechs in abyss, there need complex balance/buff/rework thing for all 3 classes (not total, but crucial parts)  

Pretty sure nothing can be done about this other than blocking your pvp chat (chat bubble with an x thingy under emotes) but ig each community has its bad individuals and good individuals. 

Lol my old build
Mod setup was something like this, I'd suggest using that defense matrix you have there, was around top 33 at one point in 1v1

I am here to state that there's not much to begin with

@Pavke did you account for arena buffs in said tournament? Seems like a problem for players of a lower tier

It's less than 8 months old iirc? I still can hit rank 1 every 1v1 season, I was rank 2 4 stars last 1v1 season with said build, couldve done a bit more but time was not on my side
 
This has pulled off a few wins against huggers in range 1 spawn for me due to reckonings 380+ damage rolls, but anytime it rolls lower it kinda makes it more of a loss situation for me

You say that yet:

Superb and heat grapple helps the weak spot 

Energy is fine as it is drain wise imo, just needs a few en items have their weight reduced so said builds can go for heavier mods, buffing energy drain wise will push people with less dual mods further down, buffing it damage wise depends on said increase

No... 

Basically we just get our levels reset and a shiny medal, rewards we got from those levels also reset

I 100% support this, maybe make it a prestige system where we go back to level 1 and earn a shiny medal to display
