First off, what language does the name come from? I'm curious 
You've got one tough as nails tank unit here. Excellent shell defense and moderately good EN defense (for a tank). Perfect for a rolling rock that's about to crush anything in its path. A few things to help your boulder crush other ACs like a monster truck though: You can get rid of the side shields, they only work if a projectile hits you directly from the side. Otherwise, they're as good as dead weight sadly
. If yo uneed something heavier for armor, try swapping the AG arms for the BABOON if you see it fit.
Good choice on the LAMIA , EN weapons are the bane of tanks, so any pulse rifle would be good (I'd prefer the LAMIA2 for DPS and low drain though). The KUJAKU will run hot on this AC, so I suggest using the G91 and maybe add a JIREN to extensions for extended EN weapon use. The G91 is good enough for the AC I believe, and will take care of any EN requirements.
If you want to keep a sustained line of laser fire, I suggest the GERYON over the GERYON3 if you want some EN weapon endurance and higher ROF. IF you plan to fire and drop for mobility and drain, then by all means stick with the G3, the speed difference is negligible though, but the drain difference will have a significant effect.
For arm weapons, I suggest having a WS lock weapon on the left to boost all the lock box in your weapon arsenal. Both backmounts are ND locks, so maybe you can switch the BX to the right arm and something with a WS lock on the left. This is essential for fighting against quick and agile opponents, but may be ignored if fighting non-OB tanks as the original purpose of this design.
Welp, see for yourself the changes
