    This is a port from my STK-3F build. There's also a thread named 'Carbonara' around, which basically descibes the same build sans AMS.

    The torso twist of the 5S is a lot worse than the 3F one's, but the build still works nicely. I tried double SRM4+A first, but the Streaks help a lot when being in an infight since the 5S's slow twist isn't very helpful for leading with SRMs. The amount of ammunition seems to be about right as I usually use the SSRMs as a kind of finisher, while the mech's main weapons are the lasers.

    The lasers are a classic package. LLas for long & midrange, MLas to mix in when under 300m. Double AMS for fighting LRMs or other missiles fired from more than 90m. To be honest, double AMS was the main reason for me to acquire this variant.

    Other than that there isn't anything to add - a pretty classic allround build in my eyes.

    I run nearly the same build, except that I drop the two MLasers in the arms for 2 extra DHS, giving it a much better overall heat efficiency, though it obviously loses a bit on the alpha. I also shave off some armor for an extra ton of SSRM ammo. But yeah, definitely an awesome build, as it dishes the damage out like nobody's business.

    This build is a beast... I did some slight changes to the OP...



    With the current LURMAgeddon having 3 tons of AMS ammo for 2 AMS units is crucial for a brawler Stalker. The ERLLas are there to be fired as you close your distance then you work with your mediums and your streaks in close, using your ERLLas as your heat allows.
