How do you best make use of the slots/tonnage?

[Ultimax]

Still using 2x cERPPC + Gauss/UAC 10/UAC20 (i swap depending on mood) on one build, with 24 or 25 DHS and a targeting computer.

Been thinking of switching it to cLPLs, dropping some DHS and increasing the computer to MK IV.

The WHK B, I run as LRM 50 + Artemis with TAG, CAP and 4x cERMLAS.

Missile boat, with at least 50 ot 60 missiles. Then have at least two ERML and a tag. I like to also have a ERPPC.

It could have something to do with its main armament being nerfed

[SgtMagor]

Warhawk prime
2-erll
2-erppc
Clrm10
AMS
TC-5
Prime is the only one I I could put a loadout  I was satisfied with, A,B annoyed me very much couldn't figure out how to put AMS on them .without  gimping their loadout .

Seeing as how my loadouts got hit by the nerf bat hard, I'd say I'd go from a UAC20, 3xSRM6 and 2erllas to... Something else. Haven't touched my warhawks in quite some time but I found that particular loadout to be quite effective before they completely wrecked the large lasers.

Hawk of War-Making, Alternative Interpretation Beta.

This fit looks like butt to veteran MWO players. Nevertheless, it's the configuration that got me through to mastery of my Warhawk-B, with tweaks made to fit on the other variants. I've had a lot of success with it, including my first 1000+-damage game. Until they nerfhammer the crud out of C-ERML, this is likely going to remain my chief Warhawk puncher.

[CyborgDragon]

I love my Warhawks, but like most I have stopped running ERLLs on most of them. But here's my builds if people are interested:

PRIME (I)
Gauss (3.5t ammo), 2x ERML, 2xLPL, MK2 TC
The mediums and large pulses sync together really well, and it all runs fairly cool.

Spoiler

PRIME (G)
2x UAC/10 (7.5t ammo), 2x SRM4 (3t ammo)
This one I run for funsies. If you run out of that much ammo you've done your job

Spoiler

Config -A
2x LRM15,1x LRM20 (8.5t ammo), 3x ERML, 2x ERLL
I kept the ERLLs for some long range direct fire.

Spoiler

Config -B
2x ERPPC, 3x MPL, 2x SRM6 (2t ammo), LRM 15 (2t ammo)
Still experimenting with this one but I've had some pretty good runs in it.

I used to do 5 ERLL, but then a wild Nerfinator appeared.

I tried 4 LPL + TC6 after that. Surprisingly, it was an almost decent loadout. The Clan LPL is bearable only because of its fairly long range, but otherwise it's kinda bleh...

[Sandslice]

I'd avoided the CERLL before; my A is closer to a canon C, with 2 ERPPC and 2 LPL, and does pretty well for me.

The Prime has alternated between that (keeping its LRMs) and a stock Prime - even with the ERPPC nerf.

I haven't found a useful B yet. ^^;

Both the cERPPC and the cER LLAS were pretty great choices for the Heatsink with legs that is starved for hardpoints.

The cERPPC is at least servicable. The cERLLAS is just awful, its living in the best apartment in Flamer-town.

I actually still chuckle when someone uses the cERLLAS on me, and it just spreads everywhere.

[darqsyde]

I'm running 2 LPL, 2MPL, LRM20 and a bunch of ammo, AMS, TC5.

I actually like it better than prenerf LL build.

[l33tworks]

What do u guys mean i cant get the B to work or Prime is best etc. I thought with the omnipods all variants can run all loadouts...

For Peacedoves, the only loadout differences come from the CT. Prime and A give extra torso twist, B gives a CT missile hardpoint.

Actually, it depends on the center torso. For example, only Warhawk B can do the "LRM-70" build (3 LRM-20s, 1 LRM-10); the other Warhawks don't have missile hardpoints in the CT.

Now, when I say it, it refers to the fact that I have fairly well-tuned loadouts for Prime and A; but I haven't worked out what the B should become yet.

[Vassago Rain]

I've been seeing 4 manz of LRM70s.

It's the only peacebird build I don't laugh at.

[Grantham Besat]

You guys are odd. I prefer to solo and the Warhawks have been and remain my most common 1000 plus damage dealer. The cerll nerf only made me change one Direwhale build as I never boated them. I also dont like clan assault lrm voats I do use the B for an ssrm boat and love It.
