I see alot of people using Gauss, AC/10, and AC/20 in their LMs. I prefer the LB AC/10 X personally. Also I try to stay away from the missile harpoint. It adds a head-sized target to your RT making it easier to destory. So I'm not a huge fan of that and I use the RT mostly for DHS storage.

this build concept sounds familiar for some reason........

I don't know why, I didn't mean to copy anyone if I did. If I didn't I guess I am starting to think like a better player.

well, if you look back at my OP in the thread
LA MALINCHE
seems like we are at least thinking along similar lines.....but not sure anyone would accuse me of being one of the better players!

Because you DC'd against me about 2 weeks ago in one of your FIRESTARTERS!!

Yeah, the new DX11 rendering option seems a bit . . . unstable. I've had a few hard crashes while running it (not just a client crash, the entire damn computer resets and windows boots into safe mode).

Haven't had any of these problems yet. I've had much more problem with lag though.

You can take out the streak missile and one medium laser - change the leftover medium laser to pulse and fit another heatsink in

You might have a problem using AC/10 ammo for that LB10X...

Here is what I run on my "Llama Lynch Mob"

LA MALINCHE

I use the ER Large lasers at long range, then switch to the rest of the weapons up close.

The low mounted weapon mounts on this mech are a problem, it's not good for hill humping.
I find it best to peek around a corner, unleash everything you have into the first mech you see them move back and cool down. Hopefully one of your teammates doesn't shoot you in the back when you step out there.

[NRP]

I really wish the gauss wasn't so screwed up, because it fits perfectly with an XL380, 2 LPL, 2 MPL, 18 DHS setup. I cannot come to terms with that goddamn firing mechanic. The AC/10 is serviceable, but I do wish I had a bit more punch. A UAC/5+ERPPC combo is just too hot. I love the LPLs in the arms though.

if a person can't figure out the build, I figure MWO is too complex for them anyhow. Pretty obviously, I had ac ammo form a previous build.

The La Malinche I haven't bought the mech yet but that's what I'm eyeballing with all this news about XL engines working in this like it does the Victor.

[Bishop Steiner]

I can say that I have gone from lukewarm to positive about it. It will never be my damage leader, and it's still uglier than sin, but it performs far too consistently to dislike it.

I run one in my LM and it works great. Yeah it takes up slots so I can't run an AC/20, but that doesn't seem to bother me. With the XL400 it goes about 65 kmph so it is somewhat maneuverable, making sure you can get behind cover in a resonable amount of time.

Does look to be a nice build. I use something like that on my Atlas K.

...eh. Standard leaves you too slow to maximize those hit boxes, IMO.

Also.....if you insist on a Standard, this is Better
