Put 2 PPCs in the shoulder because 3+ is ghost heat and that is about all you can muster for PPFLD and PPC have low DPS according to Smurfy.
2xPPC sniper
200 meter brawler
400 meter brawler
Take these builds with a grain of salt...I'm not taking into account the quirks at all, don't even know what quirks it has. I'm not the best at building meta and don't really care to be since I'm just a Tier 3 scrub.
Was hoping to give you something manageable that you can use as the framework for a better build. Hopefully someone much more knowledgeable than myself will give you a couple builds.
Good luck!

3LPL+4MLas with XL325, 2JJ and 18DHS
With this build, poke with minimal exposure with your 2 top mounted LPLs when trading and take full alpha poke shots against distracted enemies. When pushing or receiving a push use the 3 LPLs for good sustained damage and range.
It also works well as a poptart/brawler hybrid:
2PPC+5MPL with XL325, 4JJ and 17DHS
This build switches between PPC jumpsniping and MPL brawling, you usually don't want to alpha this mech, instead use each weapon type separately depending on range and cover.

Its an alpha build, not a DPS build.

That's the only thing it really has going for it in the current game.
Funny part is, I remember when all Energy mechs were considered inferior.
I'm sure we'll be back at that point once the fickle playerbase gets its way, then it can complain about whatever is best after that.

I once spent an evening playing a Cicada with 2 x LL, 2 x ML, 2 x SL, just to be able to vomit all the laser colours at the same time. I was quite tired and it was enough to amuse me at the time. I called that mech the Rainbow Warrior. I was sad there were no more colours to use -- would've loved to include those pink and yellow clan lasers.

You could even go to ER-LL or as said above LPL. Or even full MPL but the 5N is better for that.
