With respect, Cujo, I've done my own testing and come up with different results. At max range, 3 SRM4+A were able to core out most mechs roughly 20%...
I guess this is something that's difficult to test empirically. I personally feel that a bit of extra speed is useful in many situations,...
Mobility is essential to getting in and out with this mech. I haven't tried it with a smaller engine but I suspect that it would be less effective....
Here's a version of it with slightly redistributed armor per SubjectSeven's suggestion, plus I tweaked it to have 2xSRM4+Artemis. I feel that Artemis...
That's almost it, but the PPC should be on the LEFT arm (which allows you to twist and use your entire right side as a shield between shots). This is...
The great thing about the 2D2 version of this build is that you can put the AC/20 and the energy weapons on the same side of your mech. This allows...
Here's a tweak that drops 2 jump jets, a ton of ammo, and sizes down to an XL260 engine to add 3 heat sinks. You could conceivably also drop down to...
I like your modifications Cpt Chattahah, but to the previous poster who added AMS- I don't like AMS on a brawler. It gives away your position on...
I like the tweak on this with no BAP- that's usually how I run it when I'm solo, though I take BAP often when I'm with a group because of the utility...
Near max engine (you can use the engine from the "BAM!" (AC-20) BJ-1 build if you have it), with MPL's for light terrorizing fun, and BAP just...
To further clarify, and I should have stated this in my original post, this mech is meant to deliver pinpoint strikes to damaged sections of a mech...
Yeah, it does run a little bit hot, and isn't really a brawler setup. You have to manage heat and make good use of your JJ and cover, but I've gotten...
Utilizing the stock XL- good mid-long range punch and manageable heat. Use an XL280 if you have it (as the weight is identical), but the speed...
Here's a close range build that utilizes the max engine size and 4 JJ for urban brawling. Not for use on Alpine Peaks... ;) [MEDIA]
