The CT's are all the same, so really, you just want "Mist Lynx Builds"

Just cram whatever lasers you can on it, and do your best to not get shot! I always preferred SRM's, but the pew-pew is the recent hotness.

MLX-PRIME

Best used against other lights. You could put two streak 4's in one arm to save the other, but honestly the dps is a bit better.

There are many other builds, and this 'mech could greatly benefit from the ability to add or remove the bap or a jumpjet or two.

PPC really?

Oh yeah, it can be loads of fun - just stay at a distance and be mindful of heat, them clan flavored blasters are toasty.

Can go down to an erLL and an erMLAS for good balance.

Here's the story:

was on HPG. was the last mech alive. A Myst Lynx-C with a ER PPC. had the team berate me and one even gave away my position because i was last alive and running away from the enemy...to get a better vantage. Silence fell upon them as i got my fist kill. Words of encouragement slowly crept into chat. Then i got my second kill. Those words became a flood. I racked my third and the team had high hopes that i'd win it. one light verse many assaults. One was a direwolf who had a red CT. i made it my oath to kill him before i die. Alas he was my fourth and final kill.

That's the way you play the MLX. Hit and fade. You do it enough times, and you'll suddenly find you've done a LOT of damage over time.

Clan ER-PPC does not have a minimum range feel free to fire whenever. 4 Er Med's is better though.

Anyone have any more builds for the B Myst Lynx?

[Brizna]

You are forced to take jumpjets and CAP so you should do the best with them. Jumjepts and CAP aren't useless while sniping but they are certainly most useful up close. Besides MLX may not be fast but the jumpjets do wonders to make it nimble, specially since it's really small so it's also hard to hit.

Take advantage of those strengths accept its inherent weekness and oyu can make of it a good assault hunter.

4x cSPL + TC1 + 1DHS, max armor and go hunting direwolves, just stay away of other lights, this is good advice for most lights but in MLX's case you are very ill suited for light duelling, if you have to flee remember you are horizontally slower but you are the fastest mech out there in vertical velocity (SDR-5V non including) so always scape jumping over something as high as possible, most mechs can't follow you.

A MLX with that build isn't a meta mech but in my opinion when played right it's at least tier 3 if not 2 and I don't fear about people's scorn, I use it against them.

[Bad Pun]

My build is 3 C-ERMLs and 2 C-LRM-5s. I use the hard wired jump jets to keep myself outside of a furball and support whomever is holding the line. Staying in the 300-400 meter range is my goal and I try to stay in unconventional locations. As long as you have friendlies in line of sight to the red team, you'll likely be ignored. That's my findings so far.

[Fang01]

Finally got around to trying the trial koshi today and racked up 611 dmg on the first try. Pretty solid build but man is that thing slow.
