Sometimes, all you gotta do is get back to the basics and make things short and simple. This build allows you to play without thinking too much about weapon grouping, especially with the Fire Control app running around. Link to Fire Control app. Pretty simple stuff. Group your AC/2 and AC/5's in Groups 1 and 2 respectively so you can use whatever you need with a simple mouse hold/click. However, for the ability to continue raining rounds on someone without incurring ghost-heat penalties due to the low refresh rate on the AC/2's... You set up both AC'2s in group 3, with the AC'5s in 4 and 5 respectively. Set up the Macro to fire 3,4,5 at a rate of 194 ms. You'll be able to rain approximately 5 rounds a second with very minimal heat build-up, allowing you to focus on simply pointing and aiming. The build fits on the JM6-S as well.
drop the armor. This is my default build. Pincer, suppress and anyone unlucky enough to meet out in the open stands a high chance at never leaving that place. I see 600-900 dmg in this build often, with 1k games not uncommon. It's solid, lots of front armor makes it better and keeping out of the main brawls in the beginning. This build is also nice for peaking above hills, the Jagers main advantage. A CTF 4x runs the same build a little better it seems and they know to aim for those STs. Running a Jager can be a liability these days, especially alone but that's the fun and the challenge of the aggressive Jager Pilot.
this is what i use, most of the time only a more balanced ammo load out, use the ac2 for suppression fire and if they step out nail with the ac/5's or if close enough i rip all four guns and watch parts fly. what a lot don't understand is the jager is a suppression fire mech in the first place, it really isn't for front line fighting, why in the commander series you heard, "doesn't do a lot of damage, but she slings a lot of led." and they were stock with 4 ac2's chain firing.
