Warwalkers unfortunately only come with 1 of each weapon and Im not planning on spending more on bits so I can give each of them the same weapon. Assuming the walkers will always be squadded, whats my best possible mixed loadout.

My initial thought was SL/BL to havem outflank and hunt enemy light armor. Unfortunately my entire army is typically shooting str6 and above. My second thought is anti infantry with sl/shuri cannon but again my army is filled with str 6 spam. My last thought was TEQ hunters and taking the shuri cannon and star cannon.

Honestly I hate mixing jobs but with the stupid kit I have no idea what to do. My army is mostly jetbikes, fire prisms, and some meltas in a falcon. What role can I slide them in to?

Thanks!

You'll have extra heavy weapons from your existing units. The jetbikes will at least give you an extra Shuricannon or scatter laser depending on what you used. You can easily find a way to model them with those.

Look online for Bits retailers. You can get them cheap.

Find another Eldar player. I guarantee they will have a couple spare of whatever you choose to use.

If you are mixing/matching...

Scatter/Starcannon - same range, same strength. Multi-role, lots of Dakka.
Bright Lance/Eldar Missile launcher - Expensive as hell, but you get some AA, and decent anti-tank. For their price, you probably want guide/prescience on them every turn.

My War Walkers are equipped with scatter lasers. You can never have enough Strength 6! Great target for guide, and it's 24 dice.

Ack I guess I better do some conversions then if the mixing is really that bad.

Scatter Lasers it is, and Ill work on some conversions.
