Landing weight for field?

Can someone please clarify? On EMB145
To take off in an e145 for dispatch calculations you need the following items checked off, whichever is the lowest is what we go on.

1. Structural mtow.
2. Runway mtow.
3. Climb mtow.
4.landing weight max or mlw
A. Max landing structural
B. Max landing runway
C. Max landing climb

Hint on the line for landing it's always a unless your in key west or similar and it's raining.

Also number 4 and it's sub options aren't a hard requirement to take off if the company ops specs allow so.
