    I personally prefer this for poptarting purposes;



    A little more user friendly, IMO.

    This. A WHOLE LOT more jumpy to reach weird places. Also add an MLas for close range actions.

    What about this? It differs a lot from the OP, though.

    For OP build, dump the Case on the Right Torso since Gauss Ammo doesn't pop. You could either move it to the side with the Gauss Rifle, which does explode when crited, or drop it entirely and add in some armor.

    I'd make room for a 4th ton of Gauss ammo, not only because this build has pointless armor and a CASE to be stripped, but because of the Gauss playstyle. You let that ammo fly because there's no heat downside, and the projectile velocity is so high you might just hit whatever's under your crosshair. Also, Gauss plus XL engine equals time bomb. Especially in a medium with so little internal HP, you better fire it like there's no tomorrow, because there probably won't be one if anyone looks your way.

    I'd also consider stripping 2 JJs for an MLas to bolster max DPS, unless you find that 5 JJs is getting you places that 3 JJs can't.
