TBR-P "Hellfire" (2x cERLL, 4x cERML, 3x cSSRM6+A, cAP, 2x JJ)

After testing extensively this is what I've come up with. Packs a hell of a punch, I've hit the 1000+ damage club with this build. Feedback much appreciated.

Edit: Reposted with the correct 'pods. Credit goes to e92 for pointing it out to me, thank you sir!

 

You need to drop the second S omnipod torso if you're not using 4 missile packs. It comes with three nasty quirks, most importantly the 5% missile weapon cooldown penalty. That gives the SSRM6 a cooldown of 7.7 seconds instead of 7.35 seconds (7.35 down to 7.00 if elited).

I would also move the large lasers onto the same arm and spread the three mediums in the torsos (TBR-C base). That frees you to drop the armor from the left arm, giving you tonnage for a couple of heatsinks to help with the heat efficiency. You risk losing more of your weaponry if you lose a torso, but you get to hide more of your mech on map obstacles and still use your full arsenal.

Your new weapon groups would then be:
1) ERLLas on right arm
2) ERMLas on torsos
3) SSRM18 alpha strike

 

This is a TBR-P build not a TBR-C build so there is no way to put a medium laser in the center torso. Other than that dropping the second S omnipod is an excellent idea.

 

We are obsessive compulsive about min-maxing here. Builds should run on whichever chassis that leads to the most mech destruction

 

I'm obsessive compulsive with min/maxing ALL the different variants. You gotta elite em all after all.

 

Ive seen this build in action, if you can time the cooldown on the streaks , then you have a winner !

 

Question. Why the Artemis? I thought that streaks weren't effected by having it?

 

the aimtime is affected

comment for the build, it feels a little too hot, can you comment on this OP?

 

The build does run hot until you get the hang of playing it. Large lasers to get into range and missiles followed by chain firing medium lasers to finish the job. Missiles hit the hardest but generate heat fast so you have to time using them correctly in combination with lasers.

 

Oh my god this build is awesome , I had to make an account just because I wanted to post this XD

First match scored over 700 damage without any of the basics, wewt!

I did mess with it a bit though, took out a ton of srm ammo since I didnt think I would use all 400 and instead stuck a TC1 in the left torso.
