Glad to have someone who's willing to take up a lost art. While i'm not exactly all that knowledgeable as the other veterans, here's some stuff that i know.
*Two words - boost hopping. Pumping the boosters while moving sideways
*The training missions in Nine Breaker might be of some help but nothing teaches skills better than a live opponent.
*G91 (generator) + ANANDA (radiator) + VULTURE2 (booster) are your friends.
*A lightweight AC, dual-wielding rifles and machine-guns with an Exceed Orbit core can help out immensely if you're starting out.
*FCS with WS (wide & shallow) lockboxes (the targeting box with the crosshair in the middle) is good for close-to-mid-range combat. ND (narrow & deep) is used for snipers and long-range fighters, although it's harder to use.
*Different parts equal different results. No one can really give you a "best" frame to use. It's best to experiment around and see what parts seem to work best for your style. Here are some suggestions:
head - QUEEN, EYE2, EYE3, S4, DRONE...
core - 89E, 89E2, U3, UL...
arms - MACAQUE, LEMUR2, XS...
legs - 89F, COUGAR2, DINGO2, S2...
I'll add other stuff later. You might also wanna check the design threads for advice and opinions.
