I have an Atlas D-DC I do not think it has enough hitting power

it is set up such http://mwo.smurfy-ne...045b1760f176b49

how can it get any better

[Bilbo]

Use LL instead of ML. Get rid of the BAP as it's useless with ECM equipped. Trade your streaks for SRM4 or SRM6. Use endo-steel and DHS.

If you want more hitting power try this http://mwo.smurfy-ne...89880885b98fc6a

First if you combine BAP and ECM the BAP does not remove the ECM from enemies just switch your ECM to counter mode for the same effect as BAP. Move the ammo to the legs, center, and head to avoid ammo explosions. Double heat sinks work so much better than their single counter parts so it adds more tons to play with. Up your armor up front since most of the time you will be facing your enemies. PPCs hit for 10 damage between 90 – 540 meters with a max range (reduced damage) of 1080 meters and remember that under 90 meter it does 0 damage. Fire your PPCs at the same time as the AC20 for a 40 point punch. The SSRMs are to discourage light harassers. If you run too hot chain fire the PPCs to cool off some and lean on the AC20 more.

I hope this helps you out. Good hunting.

Second one looks pretty good. I wouldn't stick any ammo in the CT, But that's just personal preference.I would move one of them to the head and ditch the other.

This is the setup I use on mine it's fairly descent at most ranges.

If by hitting power you mean alpha, try this: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...f1763da4f40efd0

Same build I fool around with except I use standard ACs and no Artemis in exchange for more ammo and heatsinks.

So much rear armor in everyone's builds. I think i have 5/5/5 on the rear torsos.

[Roadkill]

AC/20, 2 x Large Laser, 3 x SRM-6, ECM, Standard 300, 17 double heatsinks.
Mostly full armor (59 arms, 51 legs).
7 tons of ammo... I generally carry 3 AC/20 and 4 SRM-6, but the reverse also works well.

It's a beastly brawler.

I would advise against using ERPPCs. They produce 15 heat each shot and your heat capacity with 16 DHS is 58 so in 2 ERPPC alphas you will overheat. When you overheat you take damage to your internal core so that is something to advise against. Designs with 1 ERPPC are usually ok with proper control that can be tough to do if you are new considering everything else that you are paying attention to do. PPCs will work fine for you and if your target gets too close you have the AC20 to back you up so you still have teeth in knife fighting range. This is primarily a brawling design with some reach so it is good practice for that and understanding ranges while being forgiving for making mistakes.

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...echlab#modified This is my load-out for when i get a D-DC, im currently just using the D variant. My question though is does this setup seem viable?

You have to click "save & share" and copy the link that it gives you to post it otherwise it just gives you the generic page.

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...926818fa282bcce i think ive fixed it now. The 10% cooling though seems a bit low though, im not sure if that combat efficient

It is missing an engine. http://mwo.smurfy-ne...f72bf1b9f765f16 Is this more to what you were planning?

I'll keep that in mind if I see you on the field.
