greetings,

im the proud owner of an atlas s and i need some help with stuffing him full with cold deadliness.

heres my build so far:
http://mwo.smurfy-ne...d99bf7d604f2f6c

i got 4 slots left and i have currently equipped them with 4 flamers for the fun of it.

this mech is just too hot. and i dont have space left for 4 heatsinks. i dont need more ammunition either. should i just take the command console? but isnt that thing more or less useless?

i would be fine with reducing the armor in the legs or taking out 1 ton of srm ammo.

any ideas?

For now, I'd put ML's in the arms and SPL's in the CT. Looks like this - http://mwo.smurfy-ne...012514cb4f0fd3b

Variant on yours, cooler - http://mwo.smurfy-ne...feccf7c44b9c9e2

My Current Build - http://mwo.smurfy-ne...8192e2d7e4c6c48

Hot brawler - http://mwo.smurfy-ne...0d9a2de18592578

Used to run the (non-troll) LRM - http://mwo.smurfy-ne...85515a0e65e9a8c

Hope this helps!

Your build should work well in a brawl but has the problem of being limited to short range. Personally i switched to A-SRM-4 and AC-10 so i have enough room left for 2 LL. It runs hot if you alpha all the time but heat isn't much of an issue when you use the weapons at their respective range. The arm mounted LL also allow for greater flexibility und are great against faster mechs and lights. The Artemis SRM-4 groups pretty tight so it can be used effectively near maximum range and have greater accuracy overall and the AC-10 works well over all distances.
I first ran a similar loadout to yours but later switched to this one for much higher flexibility.

I think you should downgrade to ASRM4 and add two LLAS. You can afford to cut ammo since the damage is so huge. If it was me I would use a smaller engine, but I don't know what you have available.

So this is my Version AS7-S runs cool and kills enugh... only downside is the short range.

e: Backarmor is 112/12 forgot to change it.

Try 1 AC-20, 4 SRM-6s with Artemis, and 2 Medium Lasers (1 in each arm). You'll 1-shot a ton of mechs.
