With the mega buff to Double Heat sinks the Twin ERPPC Suckoner is rolling again. While its DPS is in the lower end, its PPFL nature makes up for it if you are a good shot. Do not miss it, before it is too late and it gets nerfed into the ground once more.

Been playing Dual ERPPC Cicada (For the ECM) and Vindicator (For the JJ's) for the past couple days.

IS Medium Dual ERPPC is quite viable thanks to the heat changes.

Poptarts in general moved up a few pegs in the meta because most of your enemies are geared towards dealing continuous DPS (poptarting lets you avoid all that deeps).

Both the Summoner and Hunchback IIc/Huntsman 2xCERPPC builds have been very playable since the patch. If the cooldown of the CERPPC was just 0.5secs lower, it would be perfect.

I dropped every PPC build I had and transferred onto various laservomits. Works wonders. Seen friendly Cicada lately, packed fully with MPLs, did something around 900 damage and 4-5 kills, never stopped shooting, on Caustic... and that's pretty common sight these days.

What has been buffed is external double heat sinks, naturally if you don't use any heat sink over the 10 base you will notice no improvement, to equip many external heat sinks in an small mech you need light weapons, so yeah I can see why you would remove PPCs from a Cicada in favour of MPLs, that said if your mech is large and fat heat sinks are not going to be limited by weight but space so you can and should use BIG weapons to take advantage of the tonnage.

Some people play awesomes . Let us enjoy out Er ppcs plix!

[Bigbacon]

so stupid, the game needed more heat not less.

hey high alphas are a problem...solution, let mechs dissipate heat even faster. GOLD!

[kapusta11]

One of the reasons I like the new patch is that it made ppcs relevant again.

[thievingmagpi]

umm it's spelled succoner thx

[LordBraxton]

I enjoy 2erppc 4ersl on my Linebacker.

It cant jump, but when the PPCs are mounted on top of my back it really doesnt need to.

[Weeny Machine]

I prefer the Nova with 2 ERPPCs
