    Oh holy WOW this is fun. Still playing around with the targeting computer size. Not yet sure if I want to downgrade to a TC4 and add an additional heatsink. Time will tell.

    Remaining omnipods of note:
    Head: "C" or "D" since the "Prime" has (-) to armor %
    Right Arm: "C" or "D" for the arm pitch and yaw quirk bonuses

    Advanced Zoom for that up-close-and-personal light bath.
    Use the entire right side for shielding.
    The Arm & Torso placement is actually advantageous when taking out those pesky lights that like to show up. The "lack/slowness" of arm & torso convergence, in effect, spreads out the striking surface of the PPC bolts and increases the chance of hitting.

    Works wonderfully for those with 2 button mice:
    Weapon group 1 -> Left Arm PPC
    Weapon group 2 -> Left Torso PPC

    IMO this build needs a lot more heat sinks. 2 alpha strikes and you're at near overheat. Sure you can hide and cooldown in between and i'm sure it can work, but its very restrictive. If another medium pushed on you, you couldn't keep the damage up long enough to defend yourself well.

    The Clan Active Probe serves very little purpose on this build. You would benefit more from a cDHS.

    Also, targeting computers do not provide a huge benefit to a couple cERPPCs. The best use of targeting computers would be a bunch of laser weaponry. I would suggest running a TC1 or TC2, but no higher on a build like this. That will give you enough tonnage for a few cERML to fall back on. Something like this: dropped the cAP and downgraded to a TC1 making room for 2 cERML and 3 more cDHS





    Anyway, considering the application i'm going to vote this build as a 3/5 average build. I see it's potential as range support.

    Boy howdy. You weren't kidding. Not even a little bit. I miss the mystique of the larger TC's. However, the dual lightning bolt throwers are hot and slow to recharge. They definitely need more heat-sinks. Thanks for the feedback and suggestions. :)

    Change the right arm to Prime and you get better overall arm movement bonus (carries over to both arm to a degree)

    I would drop one cERPPC, and get 2x cERLL as an alternative weapon.
