Oh yeah, that's definitely viable as well. I just really like to have that 5th Medium Laser, is all. It seems to make all the difference for me.

For OP's convenience, here's the CTF-3D Brawler. Exact same loadout as the 1X brawler, just with 2 JJs and 1 less MLas and DHS.

Dunno what's going on with Smurfy for ya, Mason. It's working fine on my end. No idea what could be causing you trouble.

Here's my favorite mech of all time: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...8219691a2071ea7

It has max armor to go against the glass cannon concept that shrouds all cataphracts with decent firepower.

You can fire the lasers together and the ballistics together and still have good heat efficiency.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that's a straight-up improvement. You did add another ton of ammo and an AMS, but you did also take away 2 DHS from it.
With 4 MLas and an AC/20, this thing runs quite hot, especially in a sustained brawl; I'd like to have as many heatsinks crammed in there as possible.
That's just my personal preference, though. But hey, to each their own.

SHS work in just about any Dual guass build try that. Works ok in the 3D, or just about anyof them that have 2 ballistic slots i suppose. 2 medim lasers for back up or just a decent size standard engine with a bunch of ammo.
