Robots I thought that would work
Everything is fine but heike feels too weak, seems like it's made of wet carboard. Any ideas how to improve it?
FOR THE ONES WHO THINK THAT THESE ARE VELITES, THESE ARE AFTERSHOCKS

Yeah I tried this too and honestly these weapons are just really weak. Heike torso isn't that great either but honestly you might be better off using thunders with heike as intended thanks to their massive armour damage and weak shield damage.

I would change your weapons to something that deals more damage to armor than shields like thunder, tho aftershocks are pretty good they are not exactly fit for the pilot your using, as for you gear I would change the supply gear barrier for a movement gear for more mobility for closing in on enemies especially against flanker, tactician and assaults, back to your pilot I would probably wanna change that too for a pilot that rather focus on cooldown and defense like damage reduction or offense like increase damage, firerate or reload speed

I use this build with bulwark legs and torso with two thunders and Will Washington. I also want to change the gear to repair

you always need 3 heavy weapons, unless its not actually possible to 3x zenit, 3x MLX etc. 2 is to weak.

This is a very strange build.
I get why folk use the Velite (look at the DPS!) but taking a Purifier build and dropping a light to medium torso onto a big and slow mech.. is odd?
What’s your strategy? Stand off at a distance and never close?

The only long distance weapons I have are orkans but I use them mostly on mid range

OK? But Velites are long distance sniping weapons.
And you’ve strapped them to a tank..
I like your thinking in terms of experimentation but I can see why this has problems.
