2 QKD-4K with 4LL + 2 TDR-5SS with 6MPLs and heatsinks
Start off with large laser mid-range pokery then end with mobile thunderwubery.

The 5SS rocks. But why 6MPLs? I've got one with seven. There is no ghost heat for med pulse lasers - only for plain mediums.

What builds allows one to rack up 2000 damage in a match?

Any suggestions on Mech loadouts?

No ghost heat but with less 1 MPL I can fire more often before overheating.
This is a matter of preference and playstyle.
7 MPLs are definitely a good loadout too.

Well I'm not a 2k damage a match guy, but Amsro and Divine are way up there. I'm still playing with different decks and combinations.
My current deck is a DDC - 2LL, Guass, 3 srm4, Stalker-4n - 6 LL, Cicada 3M - 4 ML, Com-2d - ML 3 srm2. I suspect I'll either hold my output level average of mid 800s-1k or start cracking 1k more consistently.
Usually I run - Stalker 4n, cicada 3m and 2 6ml boats and nearly always clear 800 damage of which almost all goes to ct. So bit lower output but more efficient damage that sets up a lot of kills.

Who knows though, if I drop with OLD and they need me back in the ML boats clearing ct's then that's what I'll be doing.

Here's my current dropdeck vs clans if anyone is interested:

Wubbolt

ERLLbolt has the 1 ML mostly for UAVs.

LLbolt (My 5S(P) for the bonus rewards)

LL WVR

It works very well for me. Just watch out for the magic damage dropoff on the ERLLbolt past 1500m. It somehow does no damage past 1500m even though the optimal range is 911m. Always module up as well.

I really like the mechs posted so far, especially Divine's loadouts above.

I just discovered a superb close-range skirmisher!
QKD-5K with 6 MPLs, 2JJs, STD275, 9DHS, Endo, Full armor except for -1 point in each leg.
It is recommended to use MP-Laser Range 5 module to extend the MPL range to 270m
And also to lock arms so the 6 lasers converge.

.525 duration 36 point alpha is amazing!
It almost always is doing pinpoint damage with no splash, and with low duration its very easy to arm shield and JJ away immediately after each shot.

I don't want to look like self promoting but I made a few videos on easy, simple but efficient build. Try them out!

Well, if you just want hi damage scores and don't care about anything else, many MG's and SRM's are the way to go. along with the use of an arty strike. Your team will suffer for it, you may not get any kills and probably lose the match, but you can sure rack up the damage.

TDR 5SS - 7xMPL
TDR 9SE - 3xLPL
DRG1N - 2xAC5, 1xML

And one of:
Ember 4xMPL, 4xMG
SHD 4xSRM4, 1xUAC5
Grid Iron AC10, 3xMPL

On each moduls to weapons, and radar derps.
1000 DMG minimal, if you can't do 1000 DMG don't play CW

Yestrday one of my dragons has set a new record dealind 1645 dmg before running out of ammo.
The 1N ofcourse, it has 2 AC/5s and... 450 rounds for AC/5.
then I've taken my second one - another 1N with a bit different loadout.
It is 2 AC/5s and... 400 rounds for it! It runs faster though.
The second one did as much as 800 dmg before running out of enemies...

Why I do not take some backup lasers? they distract me from taking a lead when aiming and they eat up precious AC/5 shells.

P.S. No, the other two are not 1Ns.

[Leeroy Mechkins]

Seriously starting to like TDR-5SS with 4 ERLL.
Even just one can really tip the scales at the opening of the match by making all the clan long-range campers take cover.

[Leeroy Mechkins]

Found a really good one!

TDR-5SS with 2 large lasers and 3 medium pulse lasers!
TDR-5SS with 7 MPLs is great but lacks long range ability, and changing 4 MPLs to 2 LLs made the chassis much more versatile.

[VorpalAnvil]

Not a single Clam mech listed when they are clearly so OP. Strange...

[Hayashi]

Does it look like we fight for the clans?

[Leeroy Mechkins]

IS mechs are many awesome.
Clan mechs give cooties.
