or you can buy DHS and Artemis and then stuff an SRM6 into it, just to add some sparkles.

Tried making 4 LPL work, and no amount of heatsinks (I tried up to 44 single) can keep them going. You can get 2 alpha's off before you have to throttle back your dps by chain firing or stop firing altogether.

For spamming Lpulse to Skrillex, I'd say try something faster so you can pop out, alpha, then run away to cool off during the bass drop.

If you swap out the 340XL with at least a 350XL you can stuff in 22 DHS (not as good as the 44 singles, but you would at least have some speed), and would probably pull off another Alpha before hitting critical heat.

You are then left with an interesting situation where you have 8 tons left of room on your chassis, and the only useful things that you can install are a BAP, an AMS, and AMS ammo. It's too bad that you can't fit the 4 LPL into the AS7-K, because all that AMS ammo would be much more useful.

Why do I have this irrational attraction to boating large laser variants?

Jesus I thought I'm the only Chinese speaking MWO player in the entire universe! (I digress)

Itzi, that Commando build isn't half bad. For such a weak mech, 2 LRM5s are potent weapons and its speed will keep it alive longer. Doesn't need to be max speed too, even stock speed works for it.

I love LRMmandos. When they stand still 1000m out trying to lock me I can erase their CT in a single hit (you don't want to know how many Gauss rifles and ERPPCs I can fit on a K2 or 3D)

Same with Cicadas that think they're armored enough to take a few hits and run in straight lines, instant side torso coring in the XL

If you stand in the open trying to lock, you are piloting badly. I prefer to use targets someone else has locked, no need to go out and see for myself.
