I may buy this Stomper. What are your opinions of this build?

Might be a little light on AC5 ammo, maybe. Depends on your playstyle. You'll probably want more jumpjets, but again, that's a personal choice on how you run it. Overall, nothing jumps out at me as being wrong with the build. I'd play it as a mid-range harasser and light response mech. You won't chase down lights with it, but you'll scare'em off.

One ECM, though, and your firepower drops significantly. Just a heads up.

it looks good, it doesnt have BAP so ECM lights might become a problem. But how about this one: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...87f3996be9175c9

Edit 2 - Found the right build. This is what I used, not that ****-poor overheater build I linked earlier: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...205e0c067263e73

Yeah, but with that firepower you dont need speed

Thats the standard light hunter setup i use but you still need BAP tho.

Agreed. No argument there. I hit that frustration several times. The large lasers were normally enough to bail me out, but yeah. Didn't want to spare the tonnage.

[Turist0AT]

i would personally move more armour up front.

[MeiSooHaityu]

The heat efficency on the mech is pretty good (probably more than you need). I would consider removing the external DHS and replacing it with an additional ton of JJs. I like to run 2 JJs if I run them at all.

I think 3 tons is adequate for the A/C5 (at least for me).

Lastly, like Turist said, I would shift some more armor to the front. With the streaks and A/C5 escpecially, you should be facing your enemy more than turning your back to them.

[EyeOne]

A slight variation on your first post.

Removed some DHS that I didn't think you needed and upgraded the AC to a UAC, and added some JJs

Similar to mine, but I skipped the AMS and went with an Ultra AC/5, for a chance to do a little extra damage at long range. I think I also used a 280 XL, upped the armor, and added an extra ton of ammo.
