    A build designed to grind out that xp with the A using full omni-pod bonus. I personally feel you can do better by sacrificing the omni-pod bonus for other arms with more energy hardpoints (thus carrying TAG AND energy weapons), but decided to theory-craft this thing for those who like running with the correct pods.

    Basic idea is pretty simple: the LL and UAC5 act to discourage harassers and can double as direct-fire out to long range against targets of opportunity, though I don't recommend using UAC ammo for this outside the optimal damage range as you only have three tons of ammo. You have enough ammo and TrolLRM5s to keep up a steady rain when you get the chance, or link-fire for larger salvos as needed.

    Recommended Weapon Groups:
    1) cUAC5
    2) cERLL
    3) LRM5s (chain-fire)
    4) LRM5s (linked)


    Easy enough to drop armor from torso and arms if you feel more ammo is worth the risk.


    If you're using the C-LRM 5 cooldown module and are willing to sacrifice the potential to LRM-30, you can this instead:

    5x lrm is enough for continuous fire.

    This one have -5% cooldown boost, and more ammo.

    Which breaks the omni-pod bonus, which is the point of the build. While technically enough for continuous fire, it's not actually enough for uninterrupted chainfire, for which you still need 6 unless you have a cooldown module. If using the LRM cooldown module, it's enough to change the build up. Editing OP to reflect this.

    All these builds look great but the UAC-5 could be replaced by an LBX-2 or UAC-2 and the CERLL could be replaced by a CLPL or CERPPC.
