So after a bit of fiddling I've settled for this:
http://images.akamai...6078E7E83A80A2/ (sorry for only a link but for some reason this community does not allow to directly link screenshots from Steam even though their game is on there)
Anyhow: It's 2x LL (ST) + 2x ML (CT) + 4x SRM 4+Artemis (Arms) + 3x JJ Class III + 280 XL (75 KPH with Speed Tweak)
The reasoning behind this is that I hate being useless outside of brawl range thus I wanted to have something to take part in the mid range poking, thus the two LL and the move down to SRM 4.
The JJs are a must have if you go XL. You got the speed why not also get the max agility possible.
So now you saw mine, show me your's!

Not at PC, but XL315, 1JJ, ASRM24(5 tons) & 4ML or SPL to taste. I'm averaging 600 damage. It's very solid.

I love it, actually a runner up for the best hero in game atm. I run it with an 315 XL, 4x JJ, 4x SRM4, 4 MPL.
Edit: been trying out @Jason Parkers build the last couple of games (4 ML, 4 JJ, XL 315, 4x SRM6 but without Artemis). A bit hotter than the one with 4xSRM4 but obviously deals more damage when you´re really close...personally I am not a fan of SRM6´s without Artemis so I probably return to "my" build soon. C"ant g4o wrong4 withz either though.

I kept things more basic. 4 srm 6 and 2 CT MLs, 5 tons of ammo, 2JJ with a std 300. (I don't have many big xl engines anyway- most are in use and i'm too lazy to keep swapping them out). kept overheating too much with more lasers.
have been hitting 400dmg pretty regularly when I don't end up the first couple to die (i'm an aggressive brawler and die horribly from it often). had a 950 dmg match earlier today w/ 3kills. actually on the leaderboard atm with it (don't expect to stay- I won't be able to play much between now and the end of the event). and I have several matches where i'm contributing damage and getting kills with just the MLs after i'm out of ammo or out of arms so zombie cat is workable.
however I've been headshot twice by different dual guass fiends both in a hunchy IIC in the last two days. that makes it 4 headshot deaths I can remember since I started playing in closed beta- even with max head armor ok the firs time I had half that but not the second)

I have gone through quite a lot of builds trying to find my favorite chassis and overall build, I am more of a brawler and I love being Heavy support. The Rifleman will always be near and dear to my heart, and I thought I'd finally found MY mech with the Legend Killer and the RFL-3N. But then PGI goes and puts all hero mechs on sale 50% off, I'd been eyeing the Butterbee for quite some time. I absolutely despise LRM's, but SRM's are a whole other story. I have found my go to max damage mech, the BrawlerBee, somewhat similiar to a lot of the ButterBees I have seen on metamechs and Smurphy's Lab, mine is slightly tweaked. I went through about 7 or 8 different configurations, using Light engines instead of XL, using SPL's instead of MPL's, SRM's without and with Artemis, ER Mediums and Regular Mediums... but ended up with the most successful one and stuck with it. I have averaged about 750 dmg, while heavily supporting assaults on the front line. I wanted to put it to the test and went through about 15 quickplay games in a row, I never went below 580 dmg and had 3 games with over 1000, and even with the XL engine I survived more than half of the matches. With the speed and agility, torso twisting and landing alpha strikes at just the right moment, this thing is a beast.
XL315 at 84KPH with full Speed Tweak, 2xMPL CT, 2xMPL RT/LT, 4xSRM4+Artemis RA/LA, 2xJmpJtsIII, and Endo.
