Hi, Im new here, this is my first build, I hope you like it and you're welcome for suggestions Zanir.
Welcome to the forum, Mr Zanir My thoughts are that these weapons dont really need speed, cause they are sniper ones. Also u should place the HeatSinks in the SideTorsos, so when u get hitted there, u get less chances to be hitted in the engine part of it (its called "Crit padding", placing items in a piece whr u dont want to be hitted), cause once any of ur ST is gone, ur mech is also. This same goes for ammo placement: Head is the best place, cause is the most unlikely place to be hitted, next legs, cause u cant place anything else usefull there (2 slots, so not even a DoubleHS, that takes 3 slots), next CenterTorso, cause it have the highest armour value, then ST, cause u can place a CASE in it if u need it (but is completely useless for XL engines, cause the DMG the ammo does when exploding goes diectly to the next component, so if u get a ST destroyed in a XL engine Mech, u are dead). A point; if u need to choose to upgrade EndoSteel or FerroFibrous, choose allways Endo first, cause taking the same internal slots, it saves way more weight, then if u still need the weight and have the slots, go for Ferro, but allways Endo first. Finally, too low in LRM ammo. Notice that u will be firing a lot of them without any chances for them to hit (either the target hiding in cover when seeing the "incoming missile" message or simply failing to lock properly). I think that this other approach is better. Downgraded the engine to a slower one and also the upgrades except DoubleHS (ArtemisIV is a bit pointless, took me a time to discover it, but the part where u need to "have line of sight to the target" is demolishing for a so expensive and heavy upgrade), twinked a little the armour, upgraded the LRM to 20tubes and added more ammo for it: There is also other choice, adding a BeagleActiveProbe and StreakSRM to get some close-quarters defense, but the heat efficiency drops...a lot: Hope this being helpfull
Halo Auriga, and thanks for the suggestions! in my opinion the first one you prepared is better for Cooling eff. of 38% instead of more weapons & less cooling (which I dont know how better it is), But i tried to do it a little bit better, what you think about this? and about ur tips, I really didnt know that the place you store your ammo or the Heatsinks they make so much difference when then ure in the match!
U welcome. It looks WAY better As long as u dropped the StreakSRMs (SSRMs), u can also drop the BeagleActiveProbe (BAP), and get 1 more heatsink and 0.5tons more armour: LINK The concern i have right now is the raw firepower of the spec, cause a Medium Mech can mount aprox the same. Still a viable build for a 2nd line or a sniper hear:
