    Good heat, decent firepower. Should play similar to many JagerMech builds for damage output if not survivability. An XL in this appears to be suicide as it has MASSIVE side torsos.

    same build with 1 less ton armor in the legs and 1 more heat sink.
    5.67 K/D ratio
    2.67 W/L ratio

    clearly a 5 star

    I'm using similar. I've swapped the SRMs for SSRMs in favour of a STD300 for the extra speed, which makes it a surprisingly handy light 'mech fighter.

    I'd personally drop the SRM6s down to 4s and equip Artemis to ensure they all land where I want them. Alternatively. drop two heatsinks for Artemis 6s. Looks like a fun build regardless! I'll have to definitely give this a try. 4/5, and I'll report back if that changes with the build!

    The arm MLas seems superfluous. Might drop it and use the regular AC/10.

    I actually prefer the 4 Meds, Strip armor crit with LBX but Im the last one to give advice on what works for folks I only know what works for me

    4/5 for the base build. The original was to slow for my tastes, made a slight edit.

    I'm with the idea of the above build, except that artemis is not necessary for SRM4s in my opinion. I swap that for more DHS giving me much more efficiency http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=114&l=5375fadebe5938abb725d78834ed87c6d0a74067
    Also 1 MLAS in the arm gives a lot more accurate aim against moving targets (and imo it helps me targetting torso lasers as well somehow).

    Tried this build after numerous TDR-5S's and this is my favorite so far. Solid damage and when played in the close/mid range this is a damage beast.

    Running this but with 4s and a STD280. Definitely my most consistent build for this 'mech.
