MechWarrior: Online - Thunderbolt TDR-5SS Build


This is probably one of the best builds for this (partially) underwhelming Thunderbolt variant. Still; I quite enjoy piloting it; least ever since the AC/2 nerf bat; I no longer bother to pilot my beloved Shadow Hawks and Ballistic mechs.

However; it's only now I realise how potent pure (and a massive amount of) lasers can be!

Check it out right meow! Before I melt yo face with mah lazors!!

Talk about major heat management. Ok it's actually not that bad; very manageable by those veteran pilots. Newbie pilots... well you might have some difficulty. Yes it runs super cool; but it's about as cool and my 5 Large Laser Stalker (Build Incoming)! Which in reality, isn't that cool.

Regardless, your Large Lasers are on the highest point on your Mech, to allow you some Large Laser sniping. The rest of your Medium Lasers are utilised ONLY when the enemy is around 270m. That way, no unnecessary heat is gained.
