My plan, though it will take some time to get around to, is as follows: MWO:Mechlab - BLR-2C Loveless

This mech was made for the XL400. The movement quirks and the armor make it more responsive and survivable. With quirks its got more armor than ANYTHING out there except 2 variants of the highlander. The Highlander can only take a 325 tho so its slowwww. This is 84 kph of 617 points of armored goodness. My loadout is XL400, 1 ams +1 ton of ammo, 1 large pulse in arm, 5 med pulse, 6 extra dhs, endo, full armor. Use the speed, twist well, and you will be in it to win it. On a cold map you can chain fire the med pulse and barely gen any heat, then pepper in some large pulse and carve away.

Bought it day one when it came out for c-bills, I'm a fun of this Bmaster.

Quirks are made for putting an XL on it.

Mine has 4LPL and 380xl, and a lot of fun!

The latest entry into my "Show" series of Battlemasters (joining Lightshow, Lightshow II, and Showgirl) is Showmanship. (And, yes, they each have their own engines. My BLR-1GHE and BLR-1D both have 375XLs, and my BLR-1S has a 340XL.)

Great mech. Tanky as can be. I dumped all the CC, tried a few matches with it but didn't notice it doing much, and run a sort of super stock version. left the engine alone, upgraded the heatsinks and structure to endo, added four pulse lasers, a second srm6, and an erppc.

Ive since edited my loadout to this. XL400, Endo, Dhs, 5 med pulse lasers on torsos, large pulse on arm, 2 ams, 5 extra dhs(2 ra, 1lt, 1rt, 1la) 1.5 tons of ams ammo split into 3 1/2 ton slots(la, ll, rl), radar dep, seismic, med pulse cooldown 5, med pulse range 5, and the two non-mc cool shots. Soooo much wub. Soooo little time.

I've run this one with just about everything you can fit on it with the stock engine, but settled on one of my oldest, most favorite loadouts- 2x ERLL, 2x LPL, AMS, STD 340.

Just because it can run an XL comfortably doesn't mean I want to, I like taking advantage of the defensive quirks to make it a tank. Also, 2x AMS is nice, but really only useful some of the time, and less when I use it in group than solo, so I don't bother with it.

It's probably just a me thing, but I really, really enjoy the combination of ERLL and LPL, and find I have some of my highest damage matches, period, with that build, on several mechs, but especially this particular Bmaster.

I've tried it on the 733P Highlander and only gotten mediocre results. That it works for you, though, is what counts.

3x LPL
2x MPL
400XL

This mech is just bad news. Such a combination of speed and agility, armor, and pinpoint firepower.

It's not my highest avg. DPG mech, but you can get away with playing it so aggressively that it makes me feel dirty.

4x LPL
380XL


Oh man, finally built this one out. It's got it's ups and downs Vs the 1S since you generally have to get in closer (no 25% energy range + 10% LPL range mod). But man is it fun to play. I've been stuffing lights a lot since they think they can out manuver me 100% of the time. With the quirks I'm getting amazing manuverability and able to keep them in line. Still folds under heavier fire and the XL engine does make it a bit sketchy at times. But seriously, an assault that's able to do dang near 80 KPH and manuver well.
