I think that your loadout is pretty good for brawling. I'd probably do it the same way if I had a 4J and play out that hybrid 4P/4SP combo. :P

It's 13.5 DPS and 7.69% heat per second and that's right in the sweet spot of where I want most of my heat efficient builds. There's not much to improve on it unless you want to get more range, but you don't need to with your speed. Just change it up if you get bored with it but it's probably as efficient as you'll get with the 4J as a brawler. :P

I still don't get why people still use 4J as a brawler. That giant Jenner-sized shoulder lump is so impossible to miss when brawling, and when that is gone you're left with 2 lasers.

Do yourself a favor, get a STD245, LRM20 and some MLas.

I usually use the 4SP for brawling and give the 4J LRM's.

You could drop the engine down to get artemis or some medium lasers. Not sure if it would help.

I'll try your loadout and see how I like it.

If you're fast enough and mobile enough you can keep the hump alive for quite a long period of time. I no longer worry about losing it even on my 4G and more often than not, I get to use up my 21 AC/20 shots before a match ends.

The 4J isn't a 4SP, but it is still a good variant to brawl in especially given the heat efficiency of small lasers (as can be seen from the 4P builds).
