    The Awesome is my first Assault 'Mech; I chose her for her superior speed and I wanted this to be a pure laser Assault!

    Weapon groups:
    1 - 2 ERLL - Group
    2 - 2 LPL - Group
    3 - 3 ML - Chain or Group (Map dependent)

    With the LPLss on your right arm, you're able to track and fire on fast moving targets. The LPLs are for pinpoint surgery whilst the ERLLs are for abit of reach when closing on your target, I suggest switching to the MLs once in range.

    Remember to twist to your right to use your left arm as a shield!

    Cheers,
    Ix

    EDIT 05/07/13:
    I've updated the post to include the suggested changes.

    EDIT 06/07/13:
    With the changes to LPlas beam duration and ERLLs heat, this build is much more playable!

    Thank you for showing some love for the Awesome \o/

    I think I'd move the LPLs to the arm; that should help you hit fast-moving 'Mech legs more easily.

    I agree, move the LPL to the arm. and while you avoid any heat penalties, you will have them next patch. 3-5 stars.

    Thanks for the recommendations. I must admit it's been awhile since I've played with my awesome, as I've been mastering other mechs!

    I've updated the original post to include your recommendations.

    Cheers,
    Ix
