^see what i did there skyrim fans?^

This build is surprisingly fun and surprisingly deadly. Everyone puts off small and small pulse because they think its crap, but these little guys shred through armor. The large pulse lasers put out good constant damage and the heat eff. keeps this mech running relatively cool. an xl280 means you're running 110.6 with tweak, fast enough to chase and leg a light or a medium in most cases. This superior speed for a medium makes the BJ great for circling assaults and chewing their back armor off before they even realize whats happening.

Give it a try and let me know what you think!

you can fit ferro-fibrous on there too and add a heat sink or full size engine

The 1X is prolly one of my favorite mediums, even without JJ's. Just wish they would give the "grounded" BJ-1DC, an engine boost, just feels sooooo slow after zipping around in a 1X.

Waiting patiently for a BJ hero, wishing for 4 ballistic, and 4 energy, or maybe 2 ballistic, 2 missile, 4 energy. maybe drop a couple energy for a couple or more JJs. I know that's awful naive hoping for something useful from this noble little mech, if they ever get to making another medium hero, but I will keep on hoping.

How about 2 Energy, 6 Ballistic?

[Wabbit Swaya]

hehe, I was thinking six MGs and two LLas was getting a little greedy

[Zelumbras]

Now imagine a Blackjack with 3 energy hardpoints per arm, jumpjets, one missile hardpoint instead of the energy ones in each side torso, 20° more torso twist and capable of mounting a XL300. *drools*

I would throw my money at them so hard that they would need a baseball glove to catch it!


Edit: while we are at it, i think that it would also be acceptable to add an additional 2-3 ballistic hardpoints to each arm .... mhm, yes. acceptable ...

if you are not using all of the hardpoints, why not go to a BJ-3. Sure you lose a tiny amount of speed but you gain so much more with the jumpjets.

But 8 energy hardpoints is hard to pass up when a large pulse is 5 more tons than 2 medium lasers with almost the same range.

Love it, but it would be insta-death against lights and people would complain.

I prefer 2x LPL and 2x ML with JJs for my wubwub build. My 1x uses 8 MLs and is brutal.

[IceCase88]

8 MPLs and 295XL makes a very hot but great backstabber. Runs 116 kph with a 48 point alpha. Alpha first then fhainfire while running for cover. 8 MLs and 295STD for great hitting power, a little cooler, and better survivability.

or add ferro and run 2 LPLasers and 6 small lasers.

well if were going to 6 ballistics... why not just a whole 8 ballistic slots... 8 MGs and so much ammo
