Here, thats the Locust.

It needs some tweaks from the devs to be viable.

The greatest problem:

YOU HAVE TO HAVE 10 HEATSINKS.

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...849aeadc08c3e3d seems better to me.
Half the MGs but that ER Large Laser (you will NEVER have to worry about overheating) does ALOT more damage than that small laser in your build.

Agreed on the fact that the 4 additional heatsinks punish the Locust far too much. Seriously almost 25% of your total weight (not even counting the weight of the structure or engine) has to be used simply to get 10 heatsinks. Rather pointless when you can only mount one laser anyway.

Good idea.

[General Taskeen]

And Poof goes the Locust. Let's hope the MG gets good... some day, like MW3 good. Then those 2 or 4 MG's can win, maybe.

Do LCT come stock with 10 HS? I thought they had like 7.

[Johnny Reb]

I am gonna run the erll version or get rid of the machine guns totally for a lps.

edit: when the hs costs as much tonnage as the engine, I say go as big as you can!

Don't need that efficiency for 1 erLL it will recycle in time with 10 dbl hs.

edit: test yourself do it in a current mech, take a light with same setup. I say constant shots with if it ever shuts down with the recycle its 15+.

What else can I put on there? Machineguns don't generate heat, and nothing that runs hotter will fit .

[Johnny Reb]

That's the thing nothing will with the crap options. Hottest is lpl but even its cool with the limited options.

They really need to make it top end out at like 160kph. There needs to be something special about it.

Yup =)

you are better off using this set up if you wont 4 mg http://mwo.smurfy-ne...123ff1705cd7210 you will never need 4tons of ammo 2 tones is more then enough with a 170 xl engine and the minimal 4 std heat sinks you will never have heat problems even if your using a erll with the extra slots and and weight your better off adding a ams ammo and a mpl
