    I want to make the most out of the MASC so an XL350 seem like a good choice, however with that you need to keep twisting to protect the side torsos so Large Lasers have too much facetime, Large Pulses however allow you to twist. They also provide some range for skirmishing early.

    I wanted 4xSRM-6+A but they are just too heavy so had to compromise with SRM4+A which sync well with the LPLs. However things can get hot, so I stripped the ballistic arm for an extra Heatsink!

    As with all XL builds i recomend get Crit Chance Reduction and Armor nodes, and padding the torso as much as possible.

    I also recomend a full Spead Tweak, with the Torso Twist nodes on each side of the tree. Dont forget MASC also increases turn rate.

    I use left-Shift as my MASC key. MASC gets additctive once you get the hang of it.

    WARNING: this mech is not simple to pilot, but fun ifyou can make it work!

    I love MASC! Zoom zoom!

    If you go for regular LLs, you can get 4xSRM6A. I tried with Snubs too, but that got a bit too heavy and hot (or you'd have no ammo).



    The light engine variant needs a few too many compromises, so the XL is a good choice

    I did try the LL version first but the LLs burn for too long, you need to twist to protect those fat side torsos.

    Snubs would work too, synching well with SRM-6+A, the HPS is about the same, but you have less heat sinks.
