    So sad (but fair) that PGI realised it had accidentally launched this mech the same 4 laser arm as the R60L and have now stripped its extra laser hardpoint....

    Inspired by the R60L build "Egg Green", this takes the 2 tons freed by losing an MP laser plus a bit of tonnage (by sacrificing the 14 points of armour quirk) in the MG arm to max out the speed and vertical mobility of this mech, making it nimble as a chimney sweep. You do, however, have other options for freeing up tonnage as there is a great deal of flexibility to this unique little beast. The 11 ton LE210 could be an 8 ton LE190 or even a 6 ton XL190 and still be faster than any other Urbie.

    Have had a 700+ damage game in this. My biggest problem is forgetting that I am NOT an assault mech. Second biggest problem is dual heavy gauss Fafnirs.

    5/5,
    Probably one of the best builds for this variant. Using almost all JJs and a light engine is icing on the cake!



    I say almost all because the Original Build forgot armor on the MG arm ;)

    5/5,
    Been playing MWO for a month, roughly getting the hang of the game! With the event going on right now I realized I'd forgotten I had an urbanmech from the Solaris 7 pack. Had a first run with OP's loadout with 0 skills and gotten 700+ dmg just sticking to my assaults, forgotten to take screenshot but this is fun!

    ::Edit:: May I ask if you guys took any skills from the Jump Jet tree?

    Jumpjet tree is not worth the investment, 99% of the time. This mech is one of the only I could consider it on, but only if there was really nothing else I could do with the points. Armor & firepower first.
