What to upgrade?

Hello fellow Mech Arena enthusiasts!

I am at a loss on what to upgrade.  I guess I have accumulated too much stuff lol

I have 8k a-coins to spend and way too many choices (took me forever to save these up).


These are the mechs and weapons that I have, I listed the rank and level as well.


I just recently got Redeemer and Surge, and Bastion


Mechs:

Surge 3-star, lvl 1

Bastion 3-star, lvl 1

Onyx 2-star, lvl 6

Gatecrasher 3-star, lvl 7

Redeemer 3-star, lvl 4

Panther 3-star, lvl 7

Killshot 4-star, lvl 7

Zephyr 3-star, lvl 7

Sentinel 2-star, lvl 7

Aegis 3-star, lvl 5

Guardian 3-star, lvl 7


Weapons:

EM Rifle 16 3-star, lvl 7

Railgun 16 4-star, lvl 2

Graviton Beam 16 3-star, lvl 7

Disc Launcher 16 3-star, lvl 7

EM Rifle 12 3-star, lvl 7

EM Rifle 8 3-star, lvl 6

Disc Launcher 8 5-star, lvl 7

Missile Rack 12 3-star, lvl 7

Missile Rack 8 4-star, lvl 7

Arc Torrent 12 4-star, lvl 4

Arc Torrent 6 4-star, lvl 7

Javelin Rack 16 3-star, lvl 7

Javelin Rack 8 3-star, lvl 8

Rocket Mortar 8 3-star, lvl 7

Minigun 8 3-star, lvl 5



Current hangar (but I do switch it up frequently):

i


Also, is it better to get all the stuff that use most often to at least 4-star first, or is it better to focus on one mech/weapon and upgrade it further?


Thanks for any input!

For mechs Gatecrasher, Redeemer, Panther or Killshot and Zephyr. Maybe upgrade Sentinel to tank some damage.


For weapons upgrade all the Em rifles, Missile rack 8 or 12, Disc launcher, Arc Torrent 12 and maybe Jav 16 too.

Upgrade everything that is legendary and epic. Everything else is garbage now.

Pick one mech that you like and are good while playing, as in you can stay alive a long time. Level it and it's weapons as high as possible so you can compete in tournaments, etc. You need to win a lot, kill a lot, capture a lot, etc. That is your best path to the resources available. 

Obviously as you have extra resources, you will fill up your hangar. 

Meta Mechs: Surge, Redeemer, Panther, Bastion 

Still Good ones:  Stalker, Guardian, Orion, Killshot, Brickhouse, Gatecrasher


Meta weapons: EM Rifles, Disc Launchers, Rail Guns

Still good ones: Arc Torrent, Grav Beams

Okay ones: Shotgun 8, Javalins, Helix, Mini Gun, Mortars


Play style and ability almost always prevails. I've seen a dude wrecking people with Longarms on a Killshot and I've seen a Surge with Carbines get 25 kills in a FFA. Make sure you like the mech/weapon combo and it fits your play style. I see too many new players with a Surge think they can surge into any situation and kill everyone. 

Some maps are friendly to different weapons and to excel you will unlikely stick with one particular setup.
