I'm definitely keeping the ER PPC,
Stop ... saying ... this.
Until you understand the game, stop being stubborn. Yes, ER PPC is better then PPC for new players cause new players can't deal with < 90m defense, but it's terrible on Heat. New players don't handle heat well ... better to run a more balanced Mech to learn, then when you *get better*, you can always put the ER PPC's back.
On page 2(?) there was a build with an AC20 + 5 Medium Lasers ... take that build, go pretty much max armor with a 300 engine.
Learn the Game first, before you get all stubborn. PPC's / ER PPC's are not newbie friendly weapons ... drop them for now, and you might have to drop ballistics too if your not good at leading aim for the ballistics, then being on target for the laser, then being off target for the ballistic, then back on target again.
Again ... learn the game first with newbie friendly, but effective, weapons. Not going to read anymore, cause it's not worth the teaching you the game when your being this stubborn about a basic aspect ... you were going to quit ... so it can't hurt to just do what we are telling you to.
Stick with the builds on this page, try the "laser" oriented builds first, then, after you master them, try the Ballistic builds, then after you master those, try the PPC builds. (talking about a variety of chassis and not just the 1x, as that is not even a chassis listed on that page, but you will get the picture with those builds).
