    With SL damage buff and MRM now being even more in disuses compared to other weaponry (it's either you must have a giant cooldown bonus or they are not worth using), I think I should check out how it performs now...

    Use 2xMRM20 to harass bigger foes at range (poptart them as much as you can, now MRM20 is very low compared to previous patch), then use 2xMRM20 and/or SL during any brawl. 6xSL will also scary most lights, because they are arm fitted and you can easily track them.


    "The other way around" compared to DV-6Mr "Logan" (6xML, 2xSRM-6+A, 2xJJ, LFE-300): instead of SRM6+A + 6xML, it spend more tonnage on missile and less on lasers, but the concept is almost the same.

    I'm not sure it's a better build compared to "Logan" (it probably isn't due to MRM being garbage and with little to no synergy compared to SL), but it could work as a short range wolverine (pun intended) because it has better sustained and maximum DPS.

    I don’t know about 2 MRM20. They are really bad weight wise vs MRM40 or even MRM30+10.
    Sure, MRM40 has about 10% more spread and longer cooldown, but since this is a single launcher vs 2 MRM20 split between two side torsos, the combined spread of the 20s is not better. For poptarting and mobile run-n-gun the cooldown and spread difference is insignificant vs. the free 2 tons you gain with MRM40.

    If you can use the 2 tons you gain with MRM40 for cooling and/or lasers then you may actually end up with dps gain over the 2MRM20 build.

    I am not a fan of MRM40 and usually prefer to use the 30 and upgrade the lasers instead. MRM20 are only good when you are starved for crit-slots - they have a good missile/crit-slot ratio, but bad missile/ton.
