    Advanced seismic, target info gathering, radar deprivation, target decay, advanced sensors are my main five. Sometimes a AMS range/overload, AC5 range extender II, hill climb, 360, arty, airstrike or UAV.

    It depends on mech, planned role and mood.

    /Edit

    Brawlers: Advanced seismic, target info gathering, radar deprivation
    Skirmishers: Advanced seismic, target info gathering, radar deprivation
    LRM boats: target decay, advanced sensors, radar deprivation
    Snipers: Zoom, target decay, seismic
    Scouts: Target decay, advanced sensors, target info gathering, seismic, UAV/Arty/Air - Role dependent.
    Conquest only: Capture

    I may swap out radar dep or seismic for target decay if I have streaks or backup LRM's on a build.

    I noticed your list left out the advanced zoom, do you not find it worth while?

    Oh I have it and use it but out of my 105 mechs only about 3 are snipers. That's the only time I use it really so it's not on my list of most used.

    I guess I could put it on my recons but there are other modules more valued in their roles.

    I'm experimenting with modules right now, and it really depends on what you want your mech to do. Adv Zoom is great for ground fire support, but not for poptarts. Adv Gyro is great for poptarts, but mostly useless for mechs without JJ.

    I assume this excludes consumables, BC those are all useful.

    Depends on the mech/role, but I'm pretty close to Lan (who is probably pretty close to everyone else).

    Radar Dep and Adv Seismic are picked as the first two the majority for the majority of mechs. From there:
    2+ AMS? AMS Overload
    LRMS? Adv Target Decay
    IS Mech that's not a lrmboat? Target Info
    Gauss Sniper? Adv Zoom
    IS Light? Cap Accel

    Well when I made the post I was assuming this was for the Dire Wolf (Diashi).

    And if people are using consumables then by all means say which ones you are using :D

    Right now I'm using the advanced zoom, radar dep. and seismic sensor.

    I'm seriously considering dropping the ams system back in favor of the prime right torso for the added turn bonus.

    Your original post is unspecific, hence, you recieved generic answers.

    Yeah I thought this post was part of the Dire Wolf sub section, just yeah.

    But your break down is great and appreciated.

    THE module needed is radar deprivation. The rest are personal choice. Well, I like adv. zoom.

    Radar Deprivation. First, fore most, always. Then if I'm running LRMS Decay, otherwise Target info gather. I never run strikes unless ordered to in 12 mans, but if I did they would most likely be the third.

    I've primarily been playing hot, long-range energy builds in my Dire Wolf. So my modules consist of Radar Deprivation, Adv. Zoom, and a 9x9Flush (just in case).

    I'm running the DireWhale/Cheesewolf 2xERPPC 2xGauss with modules
    Advanced Seismic - Helpful for lights that are creeping on you, what direction an enemy column is going, etc.
    Radar Deprivation - No need for AMS if used properly!
    Target Info Gathering - Helps me figure out where to shoot much faster in brawls.
