    Playing around with a mixed weapons build, I found that I rather liked this. 2 LL in the arms provide decent tracking, with the LBX-10 and Machine Gun linked on another track for continuous component destruction punctuated by heavy hits. The ML and BAP-streaks can be linked as well, since the LL's take care of targets further out and the streaks lock on target very quickly.

    This build is meant to give you some pointpoint tracking at range with LL's in the arms, and with some hard-hitting component destruction up close once you've started stripping armor.

    Alternatively, for a hotter running build, you can switch out the LL's for ERLL's.

    I tried this build but without the XL engine. Looks like this:



    I agree with OP, I liked the tracking with the LLs, very nice. However the build, over all, lacked the punch I wanted. This thing is deadly late in the game, crit seeking with the LBX. Early to the middle, it doesn't help much. I did find that by hanging back from the crowd and using the LL's to provide cover fire was a useful role, then charging in when the target had open locations.

    Yeah, this isn't a "rush out first" build...though with the CT hitbox, I'm not sure that's a style I'd want to use any Orion for.

    This is a cleanup build that takes LL potshots first. Thanks for the comment!
