5Ac2 isnt half bad. i ran it for a while. the 6 tons you save by running only 5 makes a huge difference (more heatsinks and ammo) . no other mech can do it, and it's 20DPS at 700m is not to be ignored, and is fantastic at taking down stalkers.

Because you need three mechs to get to elite and it's not a bad mech. It's not like with Raven's where you have to suffer through the inferior 4X or worse Spiders where you have to live with the totally useless 5K


That's the good thing about Jagermechs - you really can't go wrong with any of them for a good assortment of the strongest builds.

Yeah, I thought about a bigger engine instead of the MG's. Right now the MG's are kind of fun to annoy people with when you're close ha-ha. I'm not sure what I was thinking putting ER PPC's on instead of PPC's but just changed those out. I now have a heat efficiency of 1.24

You know a bigger engine also increases your heat efficiency and thus your damage output.

Personally, my favorite way to annoy people up close in the Jagermech is to shoot them in the CT or back with an 2 AC20s. I'd go for the engine myself ;)

You can run 4ac2 and 2 machine guns pretty easily. Using all 6 hardpoints for non machineguns is kinda dumb, especially since the ac2 is a terrible weapon. I've seen dual PPC+6mg do ok. Hardly optimal, but very "fun", and certainly better than the tri mg dragon or any MG cataphract.

The Jesse James build is decent for the DD. Their is a Hollander II variant in MW:LL that uses 3 AC/2 and 1 Gauss called the 'Jesse James,' good stuff.

The JM6-DD is great...for unlocking elite.
I couldn't come up with any viable setup I couldn't make with the other 2 variants as well.
