Comment: On the surface, she looks like a poor machine. XL engine, notoriously weak armor, and not enough heat sinks to handle output.

Thing is, if you know how to use her then she's a good design.

When engaging a target at long range (it's up to the individual player what defines "long range"), use the ER PPCs. When dealing with a target at short range, switch off to the lasers. You'll have to keep in motion the entire time, or otherwise the thin armor (especially in the rear) is going to make things unpleasant for you.

If you have the C-Bills, I would do both the Ferro and the TSM suggestions; using both ER PPCs, both mediums, and moving in the same round will trigger the TSMs.
