    A build I have been running recently, it has proven more effective for me than two ER Large. I instantly reccomend this build for a fast, pinpoint alpha of 23 damage. It hurts, it's pretty cold, and the large pulse can really poke. Get a LPL cooldown for maximum efficiency!

    For some reason I can't post the build, but run max armor except in the head, which is at 12 points. I like putting the large pulse on the torso hardpoint, with the mediums on the arm.

    Hey there Emberdrake,

    I see this is your first build you're trying to post, so let me help you out (if you forget how to do this, check out the FAQ!)

    Copy the "Plain link" after saving your loadout on smurfy's. Then, because MechSpecs is secured, change the http:// of the plain link into https://

    That will automatically generate the thing below:



    Good luck on your other builds! I've also corrected the title to contain brackets and such :)

    About the build, You're not really using your left arm for anything anyway and it isn't large enough to block damage to your LT. The head hardpoint is also rarely hit as long as you're mobile, I'd drop some more armor from there and run the XL295 which makes this variant extra great on top of the ECM. Keep the head at 6 against stray AC20 shots, and you'll need to get 5 armor from somewhere else.



    If this is too little armor, ML synchronise greatly with LPL in terms of cooldown due to their duration, better than MPL!

    Huh, sounds pretty effective as well, with the medium lasers! However, the slightly higher punch and pinpoint of the pulses makes this a really good peekaboo and hill humper. The pinpoint damage reduces damage taken, and will increase survivability!

    Both builds utilise Medium Pulses :) (the first one is your own, I'll put it in your OP)
