first time in trebs and this is what i came up with and love it already and averaging 398.5 damage per match - 11 games so far and almost basic'd efficiencies

Sometimes you actually want the enemy to shoot your torso's as to protect your arms with all the weapons on it
Also using your jumpjets constantly while fighting with a light tap or more will help spread the damage

• XL 310 - 110.5 kph
  
• 19 doubles - 320 armour
  
• 2 jumpjets
  
• 5 medium pulse lasers

Take out the jumpjet for a XL 315 or full armour
or take out a jumpjet and a heatsink to go 115.8 kph however i prefer more heat efficiency but slower

I use my TBT-5J with a pretty similar loadout.

TBT-5J

Mine has a bit more armor, a bit more heat efficiency, a bit more Jumpjets, a bit more range and a bit more firepower.

I love the Trebs too . The 5J almost feels like an oversized Jenner. And they are really durable, especially when you twist and jump around like crazy while running 110 kph. I have better matches with my Trenchbuckets then with my Shadowhawks.

If you want to get a second TBT, the 7K is also a lot of fun.

The 7M is a real beast of a mech for me. Since you like JJs, you might like to give it a try too. The 7K has ballistic hardpoints though.

If PGI ever does a Treb Hero, I'd love to see one with JJs and ballistics.

Trebuchets have an undeserved bad reputation for being bad mechs. But I've found them to be quite deadly: 2.6 k/d on the 7M. I have the 3C and 7K and they are both 1.6 k/d ratios.

nice build and with large pulse in other arm you don't lose all your firepowa if de-armed
though i do enjoy the pulse for its ability to hit and run and leg lights faster while having more damage per the seconds
even if it does have lesser range



*****************
A hero trebuchet would be great and then maybe we can get a Trebuchet geometry pass like the other mechs
though don't make it superior to other trebs!
because all those missile tubes are there but i don't have any missile tubes :<

That's what I use to have some fun (besides my LRM striker builds):

The 1337 TBT-3C (133.7 kph with speed tweak)
