After i leveled my Highlanders, i would like to share my builds with you. All combat proven

HGN-733C Std 300, Ac 20, 2 LL, 3 SRM4:

Hands down the best Highlander variant, with the ability to mount an AC20 or 2 AC5. The LL extend your range up to 800m and the 14 DHS offer enough cooling in a brawl. The AMS gives you and your team some protection against lrm boats.

HGN-733P, Std 325, 2 PPC, 2 LPL:

2 PPC for jump sniping and 2 LPL for backup. 20 DHS are a lot, but this baby still runs hot if you spam all the weapons. The LPL offer a great pin point accuracy, so have no fear against these nasty lights. Your left side is just a meatshield, so use it that way.


HGN-732, Std 300, Gauss, 3 MPL, 3 SRM6:

The Gauss has a great range, but suffers from that breath mechanic in close range against faster mechs. Hence the MPL and the SRM6's which makes this mech a dangerous brawler.


Notice i run only 1 JJ, which still can get you everywhere on the maps you want.

I use almost the same 733C build as you, but with two SRM4 with Artemis. This way, I can land most if not all of the missiles on the bodypart I want to hit. It also allows me to lower left arm armor, and along with dropping AMS and lowering leg armor to 50 I can fit two additional JJ and an additional DHS.

This is my build. http://mwo.smurfy-ne...c91abf83bd6d811

Most recently I've been using that 733C build, except with SRM2s and all the jumpjets. And less armor on the SRM arm because I don't care about it as much.

One jumpjet is just completely useless right now. 4 and you can sometimes jump up onto things, although it's still sluggish. I just figured, I like my Stalkers better, so the highlander has to do *something* they can't.

Thanks for sharing I run a 733C somewhat like yours though I traded out the SRMs for a ALRM15 and a couple SSRMs because it takes sooo looong to get around the battlefield.

What are you going to do after the Oct 21st patch that substantially changes how JJs work?
