I think this is a good build for Rookies. It is very easy to ride, cause you need only right and left mouse key for the weapons, it runs very cold, you have enough ammo and he is very fast for an Atlas. Later you can reduce the Engine and add some SRMs for a better Alpha-Strike. First lesson, try to play the Atlas like a Stealth-Ninja hear: , difficult but possible.
For rookies I'd swap to AC5's instead. I wouldn't consider one of the most expensive mechs ($17 million as loaded) in the game an good option for beginners, even after the cadet bonus. Also, for some reason, you have Artemis installed but no LRM or SRM? Additionally, you need to put the general info in the title, such as: Kung-Fu Panda (2xUAC5, 2xLL, AMS, STD340) Otherwise, welcome to the party!
Yes, sorry. The Artemis u dont need, i have it in cause i drive him sometimes with rockets, buts yes for thie build dont buy it. I know it is very expensive but if you want to start with an ATlas for the first time, this is ok. UAC5 and AC5 is a long discussion ... if you take the ac5 use the tonnage for some srms. For writing this Thread wrong sorry and thx
