Shoot. I'm gonna have to try that. You do that with the stock XL?

Still love my LASER BLASER.

i think mine is using the 250XL that came in the 5P. So yeah 255 would be better. And if I was a good little meta boy, I'd toss the PPC into the upper torso slot. But I like to be able to aim it on fast moving targets easier.

Tried it. Did so so. Ended up using a LPL and 2 SPLs instead. Did much better. Not sure which to go for now between that or Lazer Blazer...

all depends on style.. mine is better at mid range, not so good at brawling.

Pretty sure if you slot the PPC in the torso you can use the MLAS to push the PPC to the higher shoulder mount.

Yes, and then have 2 medium lasers on totally different firing reticles, for 4 fire circuits (which is fine if one wants to over complicate things) and of course, that ignores that maybe some of us like having the 10 pt pp-fld in a situation to have full lateral and vertical movement...........

It was just an option for better ridge humping, you sure are defensive.

Yeah, I'm very much a brawler at heart.

I prefer it myself.... but I prefer other chassis for that role.

I'm a bit late to this party.

All three of my Enforcers are murderous and shockingly tough, despite running XLs.

I run XL255s in all three. The last challenge weekend got me enough c-bills to grab a permanent engine for each, so no more hot-swapping the one engine among the three.

I roll with an AC10 and 5 MLs in one, an LBX, LL, and 2 MLs in another, and 2 UAC5s and a SL in the third. Each and every one is a brutal and deadly killer, and very fun to drive.

I used to love this mech in tabletop, despite is failure to force a skill check (20 dam), but I haven't been able to make one work in MWO. Primarily due to better quirks on other mechs (FYI a cooldown bonus on UAC is worthless), and (for me) they lack the same personality of other medium mechs like the HBK, CN9, BJ, and CDA, etc.

For me, the simpler the build, the better it works.

AC10+LL+SL? 10+8+3=21.

Granted, good luck pulling it off with any kind of consistency.

For a complete failure to pull it off, look at the Shadowhawk 2H. AC5+ML+LRM5+SRM2? 5+5+5+4=19.

Just gonna say, gauss rifle and 5 medium lasers. Get it

Taking a little break from CW to work on my Resistance mechs.

I love the funky modeling on the Enforcer and I think its the best looking mech of the four.

I like the fact that its quite small, more like a 45 tonner than a 50 tonner, or one of those voluminous 55 ton mechs. Its a mech that can easily be overlooked in the battlefield and still have respectable firepower. I won't call it a "carry" mech, the kind of mech that can decisely turn a game and carry a team, but with its battlefield obscurity, it makes a great support mech to light swarms and assault lines. And its quite fun.
