Stock Stalker-5S [XL engine, L.Pulse Lasers, Single Heat Sinks], I don't get why anyone would use it.

One with no weapons on it. Really now, this thread is bit pointless.

Perhaps stick to basic variants and discus about which of those is worst. The mechlab let's us do just as ******** builds as we like and I don't think there is a clear 'winner' unless you specify your opening bit more.

If by that you mean more hilarious, I favor the Hunchback 4P with 9 flamers.

Burn it all down.

6x NARC A1 is worse than a 9x TAG 4P although it has a higher alpha...

I saw a 4 man group running CTF-4X with 4 machineguns and 2 flamers on it. I thought they were looking to die, except we actually won that match. That was a pretty funny moment.

Oh my 9 flamer Hunchie 4P is pretty dysfunctional.

I'll see your NARCat and raise you one STK 5M with NARC x5 AND TAG x5. With no armor, and xl100 engine, endo and SHS it's around 30t under gross, so I can run circles around lights with it ^_^

Just saying, this guy's SUPERMASSIVE LASERBACK deserves a honorable mention.

Oy, me killed a cicada with a flamer before.
Me mean, sure, me had to leg it first and it literally had a stripped CT, and it nearly killed me since me took so long to kill it, but it still died a slow fiery death.

PGI did this for us already, by making heat **** mechs via stock variants.

if this was The Tabletop version of Battletech, it'd work very well indeed. But we have double heat here.

9 flamer hunchie's already seen mention, so I'll regale you with the tale of me and my spider-5V with 12JJs and a single TAG (No offensive weapons). Got me so many damn spot assists I was rolling in the XP, and if anyone got too close I would fly to another continent and continue my work from there.

How about this:
A stalker with 6 ERPPC's and the rest all ammo. With the new overheating rules, override shutdown and one alpha should kill you from ammo explosion.

Needs Endo-Steel so it's just that little bit more expensive, and you can carry 4 extra tons of ammo too!

I'd say the stock Spider-5K is absolutely useless as well.
