MAL-KO:
Dual aLRM20
4-er_smalls
UAC10
XL 300...yes...

That is the only "Mixed build i can can -FU bishhhhh" out of people in PvP.

Nothing else works in a mixed build.

Lor-ish?

Hunchback 4G?

lol come on dude, that doesn't count

mixed builds basically, something not min/maxed

[The6thMessenger]

Urbie, XL145 - XL125 + 2x ERML + AC10 with 2 tons ammo.

[Snowbluff]

If it's a build from the TT shouldn't the engine have a rating that is a multiple of the mass.

Yeah, but it's something that at least would be viable in MWO QP. "-ish" in this context would be inspired, it adheres to the spirit of the lore build, such as Urbie doing a big ballistic.

A few of my Locusts, but there's not much choice there.
My Cougar-H is basically stock, with small lasers, UAC20, and ECM.
Pirhanas are near-stock (swapped ERSlas for ERHSlas).
My PNT-9R is super-stock (XL, ER PPC, SRM6 vs PPC/SRM4)
My Urbies all follow the Urbie theme, including one with an AC20.
My Crab-27B is ER mediums and a large, with Std engine. Hunchback IIC is near-stock (2x LBX20s instead of UAC20s).
Wolverine-Quarantine is super-stock (2 SRM6, LBX2, 3 medium pulse) - but again, it's an IS mech with limited hardpoints.
My Dragon 5n is super-stock - UAC10, SRM6, 2 medium pulse.
Orion IIC-C is basically stock. I think I swapped some LRMs to SRMs.
My Victor-9S is nearly stock... UAC20, 2 SRM6, 2 medium lasers, JJs.
My Warkhawk-C is nearly stock, but that's because the Warhawk is crippled with poor hardpoint and pod space options.

BJ-1

Does just as well as it would if you stuffed a larger, more fragile engine in it, because speed is utterly unimportant to how this thing plays. Throws people every time it loses its sides and keeps bouncing around.


BJ-3

Does this count? There wasn't much to change on it from stock other than making it more efficient by de-emphasizing the lasers and adding lightness through the engine.


MAD-5D

Less laser, moar missile, moar speed.


NSR-9S

Quite murderous in its range, if you can get it there. If PGI gave this thing some jam chance and ballistic range quirks, it would be super fun. Swap to standard ML if you want moar engine or JJs.

Urbanmech R60-L Single ERSL and AC20

Annihilator ANH-1X, a 4x LBX10 build is pretty lore appropriate there. I don't use the back up medium lasers on it, but the core purpose of an LBX10 boat is still there.

The FNR-5's stock build is a very good dual heavy gauss boat.

The VTR-9S's stock loadout involves an AC20 and an SRM6 as primary weapons, if you heavily modify it to run AC20 and 3 SRM6 it's a very good brawler.

The Warhawk Prime is decent in it's stock configuration, just reduce the TCOMP size a bit, drop the LRM10, and add more heatsinks. You can use it stock though and it doesn't suck.

[DarkFhoenix]

My sun spider VG is pretty Lorish and super effective sniper .

[Horseman]

My Catapult C1 is superstock - straight upgrades over the original configuration.

[S t P a u l]

Warhawk Prime!

"Piloted by Major Tara Lucas of Zeta Battalion, this Warhawk variant replaced the LRMs of the prime configuration (4x ERPPC) with more heat sinks."

Sharp lady.

[Athom83]

Warhammer; 2 HPPC, 4 MLs, 1 MRM10.

[Mole]

My Adder Prime is almost stock. Only thing I changed was changed the flamer to a HSL and replaced the targeting computer with more heat sinks.

[Dark Wooki33 IIC]

Sadcat Prime .... but it aint as much fun as you would expect.
Small Edit: but the hero with 3 ermed, 1 gaus with 2.5 tons and some stripped armor is doing "good" for me (still below my usual doing, but i enjo it)

[WrathOfDeadguy]

Super-stock Rifleman.

[Shadowomega1]

Timberwolf Warrant 2x ERLL, 4x ERML, 2x LRM 15 I forget how much ammo went with it.

[VitriolicViolet]

Enforcer 4P. give it a LFE 280 and swap the SL and DHS for 2 more ML. hits 90 and has decent firepower
