Love your paint - definitely want to grab one of my own.



Going to be around December before I can afford it though (surprises excepting) ;)


Probably going to be running something similar to your loadout - been wishing for a lighter 6MG chassis ;)

I think I am going to leave mine stock, brawling in a BJ is dangerous at the best of times and keeping the standard engine will help a little with survival + ZOMBIE MODE!

I might try a 2x ppc 6xmg with a xl engine...
May also go with a single erppc /6xmg /2 sm pulse/ stnd engine

Got one while I could, and way too impatient to wait for sales if I can have fun right now.

Having ran a few builds solo in pugland, wanting the mg build to work, the best build for BJ's is still ac20 3ml's

only alternative I haven't tried is the blagg bear build based around mg's and lb 10, which I might try just to get away from the ac20

I've got 635 MC in my account and my next predictable paycheck is November/December.

Even if they put it on sale 50% off I couldn't buy it ;) ;) :D

The crits would be amazing but I run a 130kph cicada 3m that personally does the LB10x much better justice.

thank heavens you can run this fella as an even better AC/20 + 3ML platform than the BJ-1.

I like that LPL/MG build though, will sure give it a whirl.

If you don't put six mgs on that thing, you are dead inside.

Of my now 97 mechs, only 5 run PPC. This is the fifth. Love the wee ******* after only one drop. Pretty vanilla build I admit (2xML, PPC, 6xMG with 2 Tons ammo and 4xJJ), but man....love it love it love it.

also, can we get the purple sheen removed or at least reduced? it makes all non-dark/nigh black colours look awfully plasticky. yuck.

No way! I love it and it was part of the reason I wanted to by one.

Here are a few i'm toying with:

std and xl long range versions
http://mwo.smurfy-ne...ca3483466f19776

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...2a291cc4f7d4a4c

Slight variation on standard
http://mwo.smurfy-ne...0bb3736fde81de8

with BAP and TIG module for more effective MG use:

This last one being a particular C-bill farmer.

Or the one i'm quite keen to try out the Crit seeker:

I got one last night. Just ran the stock build. Pretty good mech. It's a nice complement to my BJ-1 (AC/20 brawler/striker), BJ-3 (PPC sniper), and BJ-1X (fast energy striker). Gonna get one for my alt account too.

AC20 just took a hit in effectiveness, so the dual PPC 6 MG variant is a pretty good trade off.

Good ranged punch with the ability to finish and cool off up close.
