HBR-A "Thunderwhat?" (6xcMPL, TC2, cECM)

4.875/5,

This build is murder, plain and simple. The ECM allows you to go all in Ninja, strike the unsuspecting or support the assaults, either way works since anyone who lets you fire two full alphas will be killed or hurt real bad.

 

I'm not a monster. I'm just ahead of the curve.

 

You wound me!

 

Absolute murder. Here I was thinking my 5MPL build was strong,...

 

Really powerful though the weakness of losing one torso and pretty much all of your fire power is its flaw.

 

This is how I'm running it, armor values included, it's a really funny build, and it's a great build to drop solo, the ECM on the lights just doesn't have the same synergy as bringing it on a heavy.

And about having all on the same side, that's actually the strenght of the mech !

 

simple and deadly. but heat management will be a problem before eliting...

 

Indeed...although it does help to double up with a cool shot 6 and 9/9x9 pre-elite. I leveled mine with the build, and it is still manageable.

 

As noted, its hot, but feels like ice compared to quite a few of my builds. Coolshots. I'm lefthanded, so I naturally torque to the left to defend, making this a GREAT build- I put NOTHING on the right, and protect the left. If I've lost my weapons the fight was long, long over minutes before that happened.
My ego needs to accept it, not the mech.
left mouse arm/right mouse head and top torso laser/mouse 3 the two bottom lasers.
Paired like that heat isn't a problem as severe as if you run torso head on one button

 

Who said bring TWO coolshots? I had no idea you could do that, thanks- I mean THANKS...really..been playing more than two flipping years and had NO idea..
game grinded down to within five minutes of time limit and suddenly my overly timid team was losing, from peaking..
Using the ecm I took my hits and pushed hard, flanked, killed the two protecting that in the initial attack.
Now behind enemy lines, whacked a turret and rushed. Totally took all but one by surprise.
Dropped #3 using the first coolshot, I finished off a panther and someone from waaaay back got the kill shot.
#4 and #5 fell WHILE my team was still contemplating if that idiot dawg just made a suicide run.
this reminds me a lot of a hunchback with ECM. this last battle pushed me well over the edge of research, now to hopefully get 21,000 before night falls

 

i would still put all DHS on the left side, so you have a complete shield side where you dont have to worry about losing something (except that one DHS)

if they happen to catch your left arm, the cooling eff goes to 51%

 

Yep. Works. Even for a scrub like me

 

So much fun this build

 

And my take on this build is:
P.S. Armor points is not the same because of the survival skill tree.
Points in the skill trees:
40 in Firepower
33 in Survival
18 in Sensors
