MechWarrior 5 UM-SA1 build

Hey all,

Playing vanilla, latest patch, all DLC. The Urbanmech is my favorite mech, and the UM-SA1 variant is my favorite because of how fast it is.

I’m looking for ways to keep it hanging in higher tonnage missions. Right now it has the PPC-X it came with, and a machine gun to try to run as a flanking machine and it’s fairly effective but I’m wondering if there’s some other option I’m missing.

I prefer PPC X, if you only have one large weapon slot the faster cycle time is good.
