I apologize in advance because this is my first build on mech specs. Background: For the longest time i was running the 9 ml std 275 loadout and doing pretty well with it. But honestly after a while it was getting pretty boring. I would have to wait till mid-late game to do well with it because it was a clean up 1 shot mech or be extremely careful. Also it tended to overheat too much for my liking. So i started experimenting with a 2 ppc and sl build and a 1 ppc 2 large laser build. Eventually I settled on this(works well elited). Tactics: I use the ppc as a sort of long range tag and to keep hitting as i approach the enemy. It allows for a lot of assists. And then, when i'm with in 450ish meters I switch over to using the 30 damage blast of 6 ml which is also 1 laser short of ghost heat coincidentally . The 6 ml is great against those pesky light mechs and for finishing off someone at a close range. I haven't had too many issues with heat but it definitely takes a close eye. You can't just alpha everything over and over. When heat does get too high I just chain fire the 6 ml or only use the ppc. p.s. ml in head is great for zombieing Weapon groups: 3 groups 1: on left mouse click the ppc of course 2: on right mouse click 6 lasers chain fire 3: on another button middle wheel 3 whatever all 6 lasers at once - use this to finish off weakened mechs So this is still in testing phase because I have only been using it for around 1 or 2 days, but I have had some good success. Feel free to make suggestions/improvements.
looks like you swapped the front and rear armor values. Simple mistake. EDIT I've played a bit with this type of HBK. and it can be good. I prefer a ERLL and maxing out the ML's. I do like how you put more DHS in the shoulder instead of the hunch, but more DHS in that torso give you more HP in that hunch. only 10HP, but it is something. The PPC is not great in many cases, but I can see how this could work. As is, 4-5 stars.
