I'm bored and want one. This is the best I could come up with so far, http://mwo.smurfy-ne...94dcf577a01a71c

or replace the MG nonsense with LPL or PPC

I would probably go down the short range route with spl's and mg's):
KFX-S

or, perhaps a bit more range with mpl's and mg's:
KFX-S

Do you really need all that jump jets? You can free 2 more tons by using other legs.

It could work like this: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...6c0c6167b30ea03

Remember that the LA has +20 Armor.

6 spl kitfox with ECM purifier gets me about 600- 100 damage per match.. Great little mech

[Nighthawk513]

Striker, that build is pretty good, though I would remove 1 ton of MG ammo and put in another ERML.
Also, move .5 tons of MG ammo to the MG arm, so if you lose the torso you still have ammo. It draws ammo from the torso before the arm, so it will use the main supply first.

If you want to use the kit fox a lot, I would recommend buying the Purifier as well. With 6-7 SPLs depending on preferences, it is capable of putting out consistent 400 damage matches, and you can score much higher.

Also, you can generally afford to strip 10 armor from the left arm, due to the extra 20 armor on it from quirks. You typically lose the torso well before losing the arm.

Too much ams ammo and too much mg ammo IMO. It looks like you want to play a poker, but I find that less than optimal for the kit fox. Here's mine:

KFX-PRIME
or KFX-PRIME

Left mouse mplas, right mouse mg. Radar dep (or info gather) and advanced seismic, mg range or ams overload, mplas cool down, air strike and uav

The key is, stay in among the heavies and assaults. You should be anyway to give them the benefit of your ams and ecm. You're too slow to scout ahead, and often too slow to poke. If you do, you'll tend to lose your right arm anyway which is where all the goodies live.

Wheel out a bit and try to only shoot reds that are engaged with your teammates. This is not a go it alone mech. Your job is crit seeker. Hit the components that your team weakened, and pump it full of lead. They are definitely not nonsense.

I like this one, I think I will go ahead and try this and the PPC one,

[Nighthawk513]

The MPL one is also good.
The ERML one is the dedicated AMS build, and I have run through 3 tons on occasion. For most purposes 2.5 or even 2 is enough if your team pushes instead of sitting there taking it.

I'll just crosslink my post about Kit Fox builds. The nice thing about omnimechs is that barring the set of 8 quirks, you've got the ability to make any Kit Fox type you want as long as you have the 'pods.

Listen to Fox with a Shotgun. I swear I saw this guy core a Black Knight once while piloting a Kit Fox. He knows what he's talking about.

[NRP]

Yeah, Fox is downright amazing. I've never before seen Kit Foxes do some of stuff I've seen him do in them.
