Happy friday gents, i'm bringing to you my Highlander-733c build that I am in love with
it packs extremely strong frontal armor, and is strong at all ranges.

The ER-PPCs allow me to soften up targets at range, and then go unused during a brawl, however, they are excellent at legging light mechs along with the ac 20.

The AC 20 gives me a powerful, low heat brawling weapon to pair with the SRMs, used to remove armor.

The SRM salvo shreds internals.

Yes, it runs fairly hot, however, if you only fire the PPCs when you are sure to hit, i find its a non-issue, just play a stately, heat-concious game, and I find I can come out with 700+ damage games.

HGN-733C "Only"

If possible can people give me their thoughts, or possibly any way to improve upon it? I find myself somewhat limited in options due to the heat sinks and endo using up all my internal space.

IMO, drop the 2 ER PPCs for 2 PPCs instead. Heat is quite high.

If I do so, I cannot use them up close if I need to (eg if I lose my ac20 or srms) or at the longer distances when i have time to let them cool.
Is it really worth the trade-off in your opinion?

I think the AC/20 and SRMs are enough for close combat. Adding ER PPCs into the equation makes it much tougher to manage heat.

Agree

Also, it's not like PPCs do 0 damage in a brawl. At 45m, they still do half.

If you are insistent to keep those 2 ER PPCs, consider swapping the AC/20 for the Gauss.
