Hello, kind sirs. Could you give some constructive criticism for my Timber Wolf builds? I bought it a couple days ago and happy with it. But, you know, I can not understand some hints in mech construction.

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...6978e5e1aed5bc7
Modus operandi: Long-mid range platform.
I like, how it works, but... Direct damage is not that much as I want... Should I exchange C-TAG for 5th ER Med? Or should I downgrade LRM20A to LRM15A, add "S" right torso and give it 6 ER meds? I am not an LRM guy, but I love the look of "ears" of Mad Cat. So, I'll prefer a decent-mid-range firepower than LRM-boating. Which variant is more effective? Your thoughts?

Actual, I want to see build with good mid-range firepower, but with beautiful "ears". Is it possible?

Maybe this prime is better suited for my request: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...93efba35632e6ee
Clan Active Probe helps to see weak points for future laser fireworks.

Modus operandi: Brawler
I think, I build this one close to ideal, but maybe it can be improved?

Modus operandi: Mid-close range fighter.
5 ER meds scrath enemy on the distance, and when we closing up, LB20X starts to play. And it is beautiful.

Feel free to apply criticism and make advices! Thank you!

If you want a brawler I have a few builds I've been trying.
http://mwo.smurfy-ne...5c7bc45feda75ef
(pin point and cool enough to alpha several times, little more damage than 4 ppcs and far less heat)

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...a1d517b952cb824
(UACs jam a lot, but you can ruin people's days, most mechs even assaults will retreat when the barrage starts)

(The boomwolf, its groovy)

If you want to brawl, Lasers, SRMs, ACs and LB-X cannons are perfect.
Long range weapons are Large lasers, LRMs and PPCs.
Because the AC fire in bursts of 3, long range is not favorable for clan ACs.

I beg to differ, for those of us who love Dakka:
3x CUAC5, 3x CERML

I use the ERMLs for longer range and position myself to get a good bead on a mech at medium to close range and then rip them to shreds. One of the many many fun loadouts I've been tinkering with.
