The latest in my boredom driven builds, based primarily on maximizing accurate firepower without relying on non-manual weapons and keeping heat manageable. Like most of my builds, this one appears to have "low" FP on paper. Do not be fooled into thinking it is impotent, as nothing could be further from the truth. This TBT can core/disarm like a champ.

While heat can ramp up quickly, using this highly maneuverable 'Mech as a guerilla/jumpstrike support lets you fire alphas and return to cover easily. The large number of DHS' disperse heat quickly, even during very short downtimes.

The primary weapon system's triple-MPL strikes can hit nearly as hard as an AC20, and has the potential to easily deal it to a single location against slow or unaware targets. The secondary double-streaks are the end-all for damaging exposed systems against pilots who actively turn those points away from you, or are harder to strike. Placing one in the NARC tube causes the LT SSRM to fire in a staggered manner, resulting in better suppression and leaving only a single MPL in the LA, reducing the exposure of your equipment to destruction. It also causes the misleading appearance of three streaks, not just two.

TLDR/Disclaimer: This build runs hot, elite is highly recommended. This build is not for brawling or for the impatient/spammy. You will not enjoy this build if you are trying to do any of those three things, but the enemy will definitely be in love with you when you overheat and give them a free kill.

115.8/105.3kmh (XL325 with Elite/Standard)
28FP (3xMPL, 2xSSRM2)
1.48 HE (15DHS in Engine and RT/LT)
320 Standard Armor (All but legs maxed, legs at 39)
Endo-Steel structure.

LA: 2xMPL
LT: SSRM2 (Two tons of ammo in legs.
RT: SSRM2
RA: MPL

I hope you guys have as much fun with it as I have been having. :3
