This is a variation on the “Poptart” 2HPPC build. I did not like Running PPCs only on a mech that is not fast enough to disengage from a charging light mech, most mediums, and even some clan heavies. So, I aquired 3 tons by down grading one of the HPPCs to a regular PPC. 4 SLs in the arms have the same DPS as Medium lasers, far superior damage/heat, but more limited in range - but short range is where I need them anyway. Also, I was able to add a 3rd JJ and another DHS which makes heat management very easy. You can have 5JJs instead if you really want to. Using ERSL is possible but you will lose quite a bit of your dps under the PPC 90 meters limit, and generate a lot more heat. Having a way to threaten the enemy under 90 meters (threat level of 4 MLs) prevents him from face hugging you - they instead try to circle, but with your 3 (or 5) JJs you often can create 90 meters range with a vertical component, to put in a 25 damage PPCs shot.
