Windigo, MPV or Energy-Free?

[Tigergeezer]

I'm building up the third mech in my alt account - it's a physical, which I'm looking to load with a few energy-free and low-energy weapons, so I probably need a heat torso.  At the moment it has a Windigo, maxed legendary waiting for enough food to go mythical, but I've just had a Molten Platinum Vest and an Energy-Free Armour drop, so I'm wondering if I should mx up one of those instead of the Windigo .  What do people think?

MPV is probably the better choice as it has far more stat value.

EFA is pretty garbage, and windigo is all around good.

i would say molten

If the weapons require any energy go with MPV. If you can go without energy in the weapons EFA is hard to beat!

MPV is meta torso cause it have high phys resist

Kinda depends on how good your mod are.

If you have good energy mods then def go for the MPV.

But if you dont get good stats off of it you can try windigo.

I have decent energy mods, but also looking at energy-free or low-energy weapons.  So it's starting to sound like it would be worth my while boosting the MPV.

Thanks for replies.  I am on a lucky streak and have just got a heat monkey, so now I'm wondering whether that might be the way to go instead of MPV.  Decisions, decisions.....

Maybe I should just upgrade the hell out of everything (this is where a maxed base comes in handy) and experiment.

Heat Monkey is really good when combined with good res and from what I’ve seen it can even match most mpv builds too, so use that if you’re around rank 10 and use mpv after that.
