    This is the build and i know that it is a slow mech but it hits hard.



    I usually get 2-4 kills with 6-8 assists per match with doing about 400-600 damage.

    Let me know what you think.

    Hello and welcome on Mechspecs.
    See here for how to post smurfy's code in your posts.

    About your build, to be honest it's not something I'd pilot. But if it works for you...
    That being said, I can think of a tweak that demands no discussion: trade you LRM20 for an LRM15 and a LRM5. Same tonnage, same crit space, negligibly hotter, but now you'll fire all your missiles in one volley (the chassis has 15 missile tubes max per hardpoint, it can't shot an LRM20 in on time).

    Working around this suggestion i came to this version with the stock engine, STD 240, with more ammo, AMS and BAP:

    Why the mix of laser and PPC? I'd go for two lasers or two PPC's to simplify firing solutions.

    Cause of the special of the PPC (turn off ECM for some secs) and the efficiency of the LLas in heat/dmg. Its a good combo that im currently running in the Cataphrac and is working fine :)
