    Why Glass Cannon? It doesnt have zero Armor. ;)

    I'm just referring to the XL. I just don't prefer brawlers with xl's is all. I like what the xl affords this build, but i'd just rather have durability. I'm not having a go at you, good build sir.

    Generally im with you. I usually use Standard Engines for Brawlers. But this Medium Mech here doesnt have a large Torso, so the extra Speed should be worth the risk. It just needs a Hit&Run Playstyle and then it should be fine.

    Why not have srm4s on torsos and srm6 on arms? Why did you mix?

    Good question.. hmm my reason is simple: If you lose your arm you have Firepower of SRM14 instead of SRM12.

    i really like this fit
    but just one question, since the spread of srm its quite big would it be worth to lose one of the srm4 on the CT to upgrade to artemis? less damage but more focused.

    Of course you can. Artemis on srm6 is a good choice. Or you go penta srm4 without artemis e.g. like this:

    lovely build, 5/5

    personally myself i cant seem to aim with these effing SRM's, i prefer SSRM

    edit: i'm currently trying this build, but i reduced srm ammo by 1 ton to keep my xl 290, does that sound reasonable? =)
    like this:


    edit2: i might even manage with 400 ammo, not sure yet
    if you take off another ton of ammo and reduce leg armor you can add BAP

    here is my take on this build.

    managed to get a std 290 in there by dropping the srm6 for all 4 and going FF armor. more speed at the cost of a little less firepower but it IS a hit and run mech right?

    Decided to start running the Golden Boy again to farm some C-Bills for my Dragon collection (in progress). Tossed an old XL280 in there, and build a modified version of this build (Just a slightly smaller engine :) ). I love it so far! I had a very bad run in with a CERSLX1000000 Nova (or it seemed like a bajillion lasers) and had my back armor shredded...

    5/5 for now, unless something changes like crazy. The SRM fix doesn't hurt at all too!

    I would prefer the penta-Goldenboy with MPL in regard of the new quirks
