ERPPC for early game engagements, and anything beyond 270m. Lights won't come near you after they see what you've got loaded, and holding fire on your ERPPC at close range makes your heat very manageable. I put the head laser in for zombie fighting, but it could easily be traded for an extra ton of SSRM ammo if you find yourself using them more, and surviving undamaged longer. The streaks get a near instant target lock with Artemis and the TAG laser working together, so they're very nice to have on board.
I had not thought of that. Those changes make this much more of a light-hunter. If I was going to remake this today, I'd go for something more like this: Note that this does not use optimal armor or ammo placements.
Not a big fan of SL, ERSL is another story though, but this is not IIC. For this variant you can go XL, that would give you the ability to go 2x LPL
