    Ok this is a build I've been running as a test that I wanted some advice on. Its using the S variant and is actually on my (G) ergo one of my problems (the negative Torso quirks for the S).



    Basically I swapped a ballistic side mount for the S to get a JJ which cost me two tons - aka two heat sinks. Dropped a third for a Targeting computer. Swapped my usual ERML for SPL to counter that.

    Contemplated ERSL and more DHS instead as I tend to use the Gauss/LPL far more than the SPL/ERSL/ERML.



    The problem is the quirks...

    Good
    1 lower arm actuator.
    CT - TORSO TURN RATE (YAW): 5.00 %

    Bad
    RA - ENERGY COOLDOWN: -5.00 %
    LA - ENERGY COOLDOWN: -5.00 %
    RT - TORSO TURN RATE (YAW): -3.00 %ENERGY COOLDOWN: -2.50 %

    Anyway that was a long way of asking for advice on how to improve the build and whether to go the whole hog and embrace negative quirks to add the second torso JJ!

    Coincidentally this was originally based on the following S version fit I levelled with which lost the 5% turn rate but also dropped the negative -3% turn rate and negative energy cooldown 2.5%. No TC:

    Might be able to squeeze by with 45/40 Gauss ammo. You're bound to lose one of those torso Gauss, and then you can just feed the one you keep with the last of your ammo. As for the lasers, I'd say pick either Mediums for the range, or Smalls for the tonnage efficiency. A DWF won't make that much use out of what SPLas do over SLas, which is investing twice the tonnage for a hair more heat efficiency and lasing speed. Especially since you wont be using weapon modules on those backup lasers.
