Can we please get something for 'Mechs that are limited in weapon slots and tonnage? I used to be able to run C-MPLs on the MLX for a good pokey harraser build, but nerfs have turned C-MPLs into a staring weapon. Could we please get something for Clan Lights like the MLX that are low on tonnage & hardpoints, something with high damage + heat + cooldown? Even if it was something relatively ridiculous with a GHL of 2 and super high Ghost-Heat gen. C-HMLs almost fit that niche, but their burn-time really rules them out for my MLX.

I just want something to fit the niche that C-MPLs USED TO occupy for my Light 'Mechs.

Yeah... Totally going to fit reasonably into my MLX... Especially the INNER SPHERE WEAPON SYSTEM.

Personally, I roll with an incubus, and I have micro pulse lasers. The medium pulse laser are too slow, they always been, specially true for something that can run as fast as an Incubus, also quite gamble with the heat. But on such mechs I just dont like worrying about heat, I let my target do the worrying.

That is exactly the opposite of what the OP asked ; micro lasers are for mechs with "too many" hardpoints, because they are light and don't generate ghost heat. On a Piranha for example.
(it's a waste on an Incubus imho, not enough hardpoints, 7 max iirc)
