I mean it is the difference between a claddagh and engagement ring really.

Only reason they can be somewhat decent is with quirks.
that goes without saying. if you dont build your mechs around quirks, your doing it wrong. also, PPC's dont suck.

Still waiting to get some kind of explanation as to why they're good without quirks.
Let me know when you've explained it.

Dont have to. You would never take IS PPC's without quirks. Its not how the game is played. Anyone who does take PPC's without quirks is a noob. Or any weapon for that matter most of the time.

As they should be. They are CLAN TECHNOLOGY, after all. Besides, they still wouldn't be end all be all.
I did just fine in vanilla Mechwarrior 4 using Inner Sphere robits and tech.

7KNT : XL350, 3 PPC's in the arms ( so you can shoot at targets above you, a foreign concept to many noobs in this game, also if you lose an arm you still have 1 or 2 PPC's left ) 6 meds, and 18 DHS. The trick with this mech is to fire 2 PPC's and then the other right after, for 30 pinpoint damage. If you can catch a target off guard, you can do this alpha 2 or 3 times before backing off to cover. It works because of the 32% PPC cooldown the mech has with its quirks combined with the module. Genius really, no other mech can pinpoint 30 damage in quick succession with PPC's like this mech can. It has true character. If you happen to catch a mech at 297m, well, add another 30 damage with your medium lasers for a 50/60 alpha.
I created this build when the Black Knight was released. I created my own PPC meta. This is just 1 example of an excellent mech build I decided to share with all of you that defies the stale laserpuke meta.
Always remember folks, PPC's dont suck, you do!
1. Stop being so condescending.
2. Jager-DD with triple UAC5s can easily out DPS it. All the while having high mounts located on the arms.

I don't know how to break this to you... but... um... PPCs suck generally.
A black knight with 3xLPLs+5xMLs will eat your mech alive!
30pt PPFLD?... hehe... not at all. Its 20+10.
Sure you've been having fun... but, yeah... that is as far as it goes.
My Awesome-8Q can do better than that (its a bit slow, i know... but its a better PPC spammer)

Sorry to tell you, but I am one of the top pilots in this game, and putting a third PPC shot on where I want it to go is easy.

PPC Velocity +30%
Energy Heat Generation -10%
Energy Cooldown +10%
PPC Cooldown +10%
Normal PPC: 10 heat, 4 second cooldown, and 1100 m/s velocity
BK 7KNT PPC: 9 heat, 2.72 second cooldown (includes module and fast fire), and 1430 m/s velocity
Pretty significant differences...

In many cases you don't build your mech around quirks and they will be more effective. That is what Smurfy is for. In many cases quirks have made no sense and to build around them has been folly.
