    The idea behind this mech is to stay with the big group to provide them 2x AMS and damage support.



    With XL280 you are very nimble - especially combined with 4 jumpjets.
    14 heatsinks mean very good heat efficiency even on hot maps.
    2,5 ton AMS ammo combined with module for extended range and rate of fire - you will save lives with this.
    Almost full armor, you can drop 0,5t of AMS ammo and put more armor to legs if you wish.
    I chose LPL instead of LL because I like its shorter beam duration and better DPS. It's rather hard to snipe with LL or ER LL due to low arms on Vindicator.

    Liking the look of this. I'd probably run 'max armor' and 3 JJs instead. the more you have, the more fall damage you're likely to take, ironically.

    Been running a similar build on my 1AA just to grind it out. Loving it so far and does better than I expected! I run a XL295 (borrowed from my lights) basically the same build though so figured id just post it here as a variant.

    Same armor as SubjectSeven's variant, minus one JJ, more AMS ammo, and slight drop in heat efficiency but still easily managable.
