So I got me some Timberwolves and started looking at possible set-of-eight builds. The Prime, A, and S have interesting possibilities. For the S I am enjoying: _ Heat management is pretty good, and with the set-of-8 quirks you get quite nice mobility increases. Basically a short range pop tarter. The arm-mounted ERPPC is great for UAV killing and reaching out and smacking people who might be out of SRM range; and the instant damage works well as a complement to the fire-and-forget SRM's. ERPPC/SRM6 cooldown is relatively close, and a 63 point front-loaded alpha is respectable (though spread and short ranged). It plays as a weird skirmish/brawler/poptarter. Minimize exposure, and the jump jets allow you to work in combination with assaults and other heavies nicely - just jump over them and amplify their damage. I don't believe any of the other clan heavies can run anything like this. Missile mounts are relatively high with good convergence, and with the set-of-8 the mobility is quite good with the versatility of jump jets.

Updated for 2022. Unusual standard SRM quirk to build around, and the standard SRM's allow you to go for 2 ERPPC's. Much more respectable alpha strike and pop tart blast: https://mwo.nav-alpha.com/mechlab?b=fffc206b_TBR-S
