The Sharpshooter Standard: 1x cGauss w/3t ammo should be able to dish out a decent amount of damage when used by any decent pilot. The 4x cERML can help pick down targets that get close enough, or simply push away those pesky lights/mediums that may try to harass you. PROS: Solid Armor Value (mostly forward facing to help again return shots) High mounted cGauss Strong Alpha @ 400m Good HE Speed to maneuver/relocate JJ to maneuver/relocate TC1 AMS CONS: Front heavy armor values (Low rear) Alpha weakens past 600m substantially Low slung cERML This build excels more at Mid-Range rather than Close or Long Distance, thus the cERML. Handles well in the fray if needed. If you find yourself NOT needing the full ton of AMS ammo, but lacking in Gauss, drop the AMS down to half a ton and add a half-ton of Gauss to the right arm.
