    Based on the lauded TBR build, this little baby will rock in PUG drops.

    Full slot usage for extra points! :cigar:

    Quite the straightfoward build, no need for much detailing. The MGs are an extra ;)

    Update following first tests,...

    MGs need to go and the LPL need to move up the shoulder:


    Plz disregard armor distribution. I'm lazy!

    EBJ makes for an excellent laser vomit build. 2cLPLas + 4 cERMLas probably is the way to go when looking for that way of playing this new monster. 5 kills + 5 assists in my very first run ever in one of the variants sets an exclamation mark here for sure. I didn't even took a lot of care where the weapons were located but simplay stuffed them in the mech together with a TC1 and lots if DHS as the rest of the group was waiting for me.

    Why have a tag when you can move the er meds to the side torsos?



    Personally I find the ebon jag a bit squishy, so I like to run this setup symmetrically



    Great 'mech!

    The tag is used to place the LPLs on the high torso mounts without adding a heat efficiency lowering agent. (and as a bonus you can help the LRM boats)

    Completely agree, starting to prefer it over my Timberwolves,... never thought I'd say that :smuggrin:

    I totally get it, the ability to peak over a hill without exposing the majority of your mech. However I have a thing for aesthetics and symmetry, so my EBJ doesn't have "ears" unless on both sides. Maybe a little weird, but this build has probably been the most successful for my heavies that I currently own. I'm more of a light/medium pilot, so heavies and assaults don't exactly get along with me.

    I run a similar one, 2cLPL and 4cMPLs. MPLs in the arms, LPLs in the STs, nothing on shoulder hard points. Works well, but a bit hot, I really should try this one.

    5 Stars for the non-MG version. Hits hard, low profile. Great build!
