Because of the event going on, I HAD to get loadouts for the S7 mechs. So, I had a spare engine from a Raven sitting idle, so I stole it and upgraded to DHS. Totally worth it, but the torso pitch is just trash in this mech, so stay at range and don&#039;t brawl. Try to skirmish with the lasers, then go in when no one has any armor left and finish them with the MGs.<br />
<br />
Improved version for when I&#039;m not space poor.<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I don&#039;t have any mechs that run HMG&#039;s, but this Firestorm seems like a nice platform for it.  You have to take the engine rating down from max slightly, but it doesn&#039;t hurt it too bad, the build works out very nicely:<br />

Skilling it up was quite fun.  Not an OP mech but can get some good work done if you apply it correctly.]]></content:encoded>

Ive tried out some of the builds on here and after a lot of fiddling and cbills, this works the best for me.<br />
<br />
This is the Skilled up 91/91 version. Without the mag cap skill nodes you may find yourself running a bit dry on ammo come the late game (especially if you go ham on the MGs)<br />
<br />
If you think the ammo is a little short, drop a JJ and turn the half ammo into a full one.<br />

You can go faster if you drop 2 JJs for an XL295. You can also switch to MLs for more Ammo and increased engine size if you want.<br />
<br />
Personally, I had the 280XL sitting on the shelf.]]></content:encoded>
