    I've been running my Locust 1V with the 'Big Gun' build also in this subforum, but lately I've also been experimenting with other single energy weapons. I saw a great video of a player named VOLTRON holding off an enemy team with a single ERLL fully skilled up (amazing), and I've also been thinking that this would be great for a Snubnosed PPC; kind of like an infinite-ammo energy AC10 with great cooldown. Concepts:

    1 Large Pulse Laser - Very fun. Not all that effective, but fun as hell.
    1 Snubnosed PPC - Similar range, weighs less, allows an extra DHS.
    1 ER-PPC - Similar to Snubnosed but goes farther. Probably too hot for constant fire like this chassis is good for.
    1 ER Large Laser - Allows room for an extra DHS and even AMS.

    The armor quirks are very helpful, and the cooldown is fantastic. Combined with enhanced cooldown with the skill tree, you can accomplish ~40% extra energy cooldown. Add max radar derp, and you're a goddamned ninja. ;)

    Builds:

    1xLPL (based on someone else's build here originally)
    I've been playing this, and it's fun.

    My first game (I think?) in this configuration:

    1xSnubPPC
    Going to play this for a while.


    1xERLL

    Check out this video of the ERLL version in action. The rate of that laser is awesome!
     


  2. How hot is it with skills? Could you fit in a TC1 or 2?

    From testing it without skills, I feel that you could drop a heatsink for a TC1 without a problem for the ERLL version. Of course, when it's skilled up and the cooldown is enhanced and laser duration drops, heat can build up faster (although skills also mitigate that, too).
