Hi!

Im searching for a Mech that can be used as a Gauss Sniper and which i can change to a 2x LBX 10 loadout other than Jaeger or Cataphract!

Is there such a Mech in the Game?

Greetings

Hi Desertshark.

The only other mechs capable of carrying what you want are the clan heavies and assaults. So thats the Summoner, Timber Wolf, Warhawk and Dire Wolf.

I hope this helps.

Catapult K2 is the best choice left
otherwise, u can try QuickDraw-IV4, Orion-Protector/-V, Banshees, Atlas-D/-DDC

Yeah, Catapult K2 is a pretty good option.
Though the Jagermech is better due to high, arm mounted ballistics.

The K2 is a good second option though. Slightly more durable, you can sacrifice the arms for more ammo / max armour on all other sections.
Just remember your weapons are torso mounted, lower, and you need to come in from a different angle, you can't peek over anything.

From my practice these mechs are Catapult K2,Cataphract 4X,3D and Ilya Muromets - all of them are capable to equip dual gauss rifles with decent ammo supply and backup weapons.

Well, if by "gauss sniper" you mean mech with 2 gauss rifles, as people have said, there is always the original gausskat. Countering that build is what got me started on AC2's back when they were good.

For something a little bit different, I know that both the D and DDC Atlases that can mount a gauss + 2ERPPCs that can be switched to twin LBX's + whatever. The DDC can even cram SRMs in, which go quite nicely with LBX's in my opinion.
