    NICE! someone already posted this build. I was wondering how it would play, so I built one very similar and took it out for a couple matches. Broke 1k in 3/4 matches, so it plays how I expected. It's VERY similar to the 8x MPL builds out there (mainlyon the EBJ) and you play it very similar.

    In todays age, ECM isn't really worth it personally. So I moved the TC1 to the head, dropped ECM in favor of another DHS (28 total).

    The mech pilots really well, and the damage efficiency of 4-5 HML is great! Mechs just melt if you get a good volley.

    It's helpful to set several weapon groups, more than just 4x4. These are the groups I use:

    WG1: 4x Torso
    WG2: 5th torso
    WG3: 3x Arm
    WG4: 5x Left Side

    The hardpoints allow you to work many angles. And because you only want to be firing 4-5 HML at a time, it can peek with the high mounts OR peek left sided VERY well.

    Very good build if you can learn to play its strengths.

    Well isn't this a naughty robot? Went with the more DHS non-ECM version coz I don't think you really need ECM on something this CQC-oriented. As brutal as it is fun, which is very on both counts.
