http://mwo.smurfy-ne...0f375d34de5d7caI dont usually play with high alpha mechs but I have found it a fun change in play style. Mostly becuase when I hit a spider it dies!

I tried the 2 gauss 2 ppc Illya but it was to slow, dropped a ppc for more speed and ammo. Now im bored of it and made this Misery... manageable almost pinpoint alpha (ERLL makes it not 100% pinpoint)

My computer at work is so slow that it takes 10 minutes to put in armor :) but theirs nearly 15 tons left over for that.

If anyone else has made some succesful (heat manageable) high alpha builds id like to hear about it!

Your link is empty. You need to save/share and pull the link from that screen.

Use the BBCode link for sexiness here.

I regret to inform that your link does not work. You have to hit 'save and share' and use that link; the one you gave links to an empty loadout.

On smurfy's, use the armor tab to manually enter numbers instead of arrow clicking on slow systems. It's way, way faster. Click tools>max armor, then edit the amounts as required on the armor tab on the right.

As to the build, I'd go regular LL's instead of ERLL's. Regular LL's have a similar range profile to PPC's, and are substantially cooler - which makes a huge difference up close and personal.

LOL I was about to post that during my lunch hour i went home and tried it. The first 2 games i got 400+ damage. Then I switched to LL and got 700+ damage, yes the LL are alot cooler and at range its to hard to hold the beam steady in a single component area so you might as wel go LL instead of ERLL. And thanks for the armor tip!
