I love this build for the huge damage, but the heat is a little high.

Am I doing something wrong?

Here's my build:

Good heavens yes. You need to run a smaller engine.


And seriously, what's with all the armor? Do you have intimacy issues?

OK to be honest I haven't actually tried it out yet. After adding endo, ferro, downgrading to SHS, buying new engine and 7 ERLL I found out that I couldn't afford it! I have the cbills now but I hesitate to spend almost 4mill cbills on a joke build.

I wonder if it can alpha once once without shutting down?

Take one ERLL away and you will have yourself a mini Supernova

True! Except for one small difference. The Supernova has 26 double heat sinks. I have 10 singles :)

Update.
I tried this build after the heat and alpha update.

On Terra Therma training grounds I fired one alpha shot. I shut down instantly and after about 20 seconds I exploded.

In a real game on Tourmaline Desert I hit override and fired one alpha shot. Instant death. I mean less than half a second.

Can anyone recommend a free good video capture program that doesn't hurt my FPS too much? I would love to post a vid of this.

I actually ran this build http://mwo.smurfy-ne...992a561e307c863 for a bit while I was playing around with 4P builds. My brother and I referred to it as the "ion cannon." Amusingly enough, my first 2 matches with the build ended with me having over 300 damage and multiple kills (I'm sure both matches being on Frozen City had nothing to that). It kinda went downhill after that though :lol:

I think the only thing that actually upset me about the heat/alpha update was that they totally neutered the "ion cannon" (which was never very good to begin with). :lol:

"You're not suggesting the Ion Cannon, are you?"

"No, I'm not suggesting it, I'm ordering it!"

Update.
Sometimes I get bored and play every mech I own. One after the other, one game each. I forgot to rebuild my HBK-4P.
I ran this joke build again tonight by mistake. Got Terra Therma Conquest. ;)
Only 10 single heat sinks. Instant overheat. And a top speed of 44KPH. Ugh.
I changed to chain fire to save my life, but it still overheated after several single shots.
So I went to defend a conquest point, directed traffic, and we won the game!
Never again.

BTW I am still looking for a good free vid cap program to make a vid of this build.

The question that drives me is, if you fire the ER lasers in an alpha, does it instantly destroy your hunchback? ;)

I also believe the build can be improved. Have a look at my improved version below
