https://mwo.smurfy-net.de/equipment scroll down to "Heat Penalties per weapon"
that quirk allows that mech to shoot +1 of that weapon type quirks says without triggering ghost heat/heat scale.

Normally you cannot shoot more than two of PPC/Gauss weapons without triggering ghost heat but for example marauder bounty hunter can fire gauss and 2x ERPPC because it has IS ERPPC HSL +1

HSL is how PGI made Ghost Heat even more arbitrarily illogical and convoluted than it already was. Posted Image

The workings of this key game mechanic are fully explained in the comprehensive New Player Tutorials which PGI have provided to attract, retain and build the player population.

HSL stands for Heat Scale Limit. it is a new quirk that directly increases the number of weapons that can be fired together without imposing a heat penalty.

Example: only 2 PPCs can be fired at once before imposing additional heat penalties.

A HSL PPC +1 would allow 3 PPC to be fired together without penalty.
