What would be the best module on an Atlas, BH, DDC and RS(C)?

[Escef]

Seismic is good, stop before you round a corner to make sure you aren't walking into an ambush. Target Decay is nice if you pack Streaks or LRMs. Cool Shots is almost universally useful. Advanced Zoom is a big maybe, but since the Atlas's weapon placement is so low I can't recommend it. I've seen someone get really nice mileage out of Hill Climb.

Hillclimb is pretty nice especially since the DDC gets 4 slots, getting up hills other atlas cant is useful. Basically everything Escef said.

For any mech, Target Info is a huge boon when it comes to quick-draw situations (it lets you find and target weak locations and judge enemy loadouts that little bit faster, which is often key to avoiding death and getting a kill).

I also really like Sensor Range in general, and it's hugely important for SSRM and LRM builds. If nothing else it gets you more spotting assist opportunities.

Seismic is great if you are a cautious pilot, since it only works when you are standing still. Especially for an Atlas, though, if you pause before rounding a corner it can save your life.

Artillery and Air Strikes are solid module choices for any mech, especially when you have lots of slots and can bring one or another in addition to your standard selections.

Finally, there are plenty of modules that vary depending on loadout (Advanced Zoom, Target Decay, etc.).

Hillclimb module only increases the speed at which you climb hills (or more correctly, decreases how much you slow down when climbing hills). I don't believe it lets you climb a hill that you couldn't otherwise climb.

Or has it been changed?
