With the new tech you could potentially do UAC/20 + MRM30-40 + ERSLas.

I actually kinda like it now with the 4 ML and LBX10 and 2 srm6's...the LBX and ML's kinda bridge the gap till your SRM 6's reload and the LBX weighs a hell of a lot less to free up some tons for ammo and a bigger engine allwing for more heat sincs

But why not an AC20? Surely you have the tonnage for it, and it would be a massive upgrade over the LBX.

I'd rather go UAC10s wth MRM30 and ERMLs.

I could do that, but much lower fire rate...

AC20 - pinpoint vs LBX sandblasting dmg over 200m.

AC20 wins.

I'm thinking about adding LRMs back to my DDC..... Right now running with 3xSRM4 but I want some long range punch to compliment my 2xLL and AC20.

AC20 wins.

moving closer press the double barrel in the face of your foe - add some SRMs and you might kill half the enemy team with 433dmg...(3 solos 2 shots + 2 kmdd)
its not about sandblasting

[justcallme A S H]

Yep, whatever you reckon.

that's why I put the LBX on, because my main damage dealer (the 2 srm 6's) already scatter. I could throw on an ac/10 instead...but why not?

I do need to practice my aim with srm's though

If you try to run the Atlas RS like a typical autocannon and SRM brawler you'll find it's inferior in every respect to the others. That is not, however, the only path. I run my Atlas RS with 4 large pulse lasers in the arms with optional SRMs in the torso. No ballistics.

Yes, dark heresy, I know. But it works. It works well. The Atlas RS has 10% energy cooldown, range and duration. It gives nothing to its mixed loadout heritage. Embrace that and stuff the thing with heat sinks.

The gun and SRMs dramatically increase the size of the side torso hit boxes.You will tank better without them and having your main firepower in the arms allows you to not only track better, but also to fire while at off-angles while twisting without having to draw a bead with the autocannon.

Try it. It reaches out further than the traditional AC+SRM Atlas and has an easier time hitting things.

I prefer putting 4 LPL + some ballistic in mine.

These are the metamechs builds, I personally feel that metamechs gives great loadouts. I don't know how many other people think this but I assumed it was the gold standard for where to start your planning on a build but very few people mention it.
