I actually really like the magnum/Orkan combo. Magnums for while I'm approaching, then when I get close enough, dual Orkans are enough to wipe out almost anything -- especially if you're constantly weakening them with magnums.

I'mThatGuy pretty much nailed it on the head. Rockets have better splash damage that can go through Rhinos shields. Plasma doesn't have splash.

Essentially it boilds down to two options: Rocket Rhinos are amazing for killing one bot at a time. More than one bot? Con: You're gonna die pretty quickly. However, the pro is that that one bot will die so quickly it'll hardly have time to hurt you. and you'll have plenty of hp left for the next guy that comes along.

Plasma Rhino is better for tanking multiple enemies. Tarans are fairly quick kills and better at distance aiming. Cons: Not as fast a kill (barely) and might not kill the bot before it has to reload. Pros: better sustainability. It generally lasts better against multiple enemies, especially if you have team mates with you. And you can fire more acurately and at a farther distance.

Depends which playstyle you prefer. (As I'mThatGuy kinda stated, Plasma generally has the upperhand in most battles).
