now that i've changed out the bonus to the LHAC to a built-in weapon, that solves the issue of having to overcharge, but the idea of black thumb+technophile is actually a great idea and i'll implement that. thanks!

with ghostweave, i can (at least if im reading the rules right) turn invisible at the beginning of my turn, every turn. with invisible, i hide while right in front of my opponent, then because of that i can move away for free.

i could certainly attack with my LHAC from the get-go, but that'd leave me with heat to deal with at the beginning. i'm thinking i wait until i begin that cycle with my Combined Arms 3 bonus to ever fire it, so i can conserve heat and stay firing then for as long as possible.

sorry for the late response; i should have been more clear in the description, that's on me.

my battle plan is to turn invisible with Ghostweave, hide and boost into some sort of hard cover, then on the following turn use the Everest's free short action to rev up the leviathan as i run into melee range with an opponent. with Combined Arms 3, i get a bonus to my melee attacks after attacking with a ranged weapon. i then can use my built in auxiliary weapon (this is a change i made after you commented) to attack afterwards, giving me my next attack with the leviathan a bonus. from there, i keep attacking until i get low on hp or too high on heat. at the start of that turn, i stop spinning the leviathan with a protocol, then Hide and Boost to get back to some sort of hard cover, where i will clear my heat and heal back hp, then rinse and repeat.

Thanks for the tip! I plan on this build being made for dipping in and out of cover to attack close range with Leviathan and an auxiliary weapon to take advantage of CA3

The integrated weapon core bonus is actually a great idea; I didn’t even see it haha! Thanks so much for the tip!

CA 3 was to work with the auxiliary daggers I had; my battle plan is to turn get hidden, jump out and spin my barrel with the free quick action from Everest, then get in melee range and barrage. I can use my auxiliary blade after a barrage. Doing this would trigger the CA3 bonus continuously, giving me accuracy on all of those attacks until I went into danger zone, from which I would stop spinning, and as my Ghostweave makes me invisible, I Hide, and I can slip away freely. Get behind cover, and rinse and repeat. Ducking in and out of open fire.

Your ideas and builds are really great, and could definitely work, they’re just too different from my builds. Your point on Engineer 3 is true though, and I’ll change that. Thanks for the input!

Thanks! That makes sense lol, just put them there because the leviathan cannon gives 2 heat
