I dunno about the Atlas on this one dude. Yes, it has that pretty low usage drain and some OK defense, but it's OB just pretty much plain sucks. Just look how far Jack-O got. :meh:
I've tried to use the Atlas as a way of defending it against those who would call it useless, but I'm afraid that it really does pale in comparison to the other OB cores out there.
I'd go with:
840/UL or UL2 if you want to go light, or
Eos if you want to go heavy.
The /UL and the UL2 choices are pretty explanatory. Good acceleration, plus with the Birdie2 you've got tameable heat coming your way. Just watch out when the core hits yellow though, /UL's heat build up during the charge up phase increases considerably.
With the Eos, since there are no hangers on this AC, you've got a lot of boost power, all for low drain. Winner.
I almost forgot, if you're willing to change into these suggestions, you'll have to change your gen too (duh). :excited:
I'd go:
Lotus for the /UL or UL2, or
Lotus or G69 for the Eos.
Pretty much the only thing that's weird there is the G69, but it fits really well with that heavy OB core as I've learned. Low calorific value FTW.
However, it's gotta be noted that with the addition of better OB, the blade can't help but be idle, since there's not much energy left for it. I'd hanger it if your core choice allows it, then put a gun in it's place, like maybe a Nix, an R3, or a solid handgun.
