I was struggling to grind the XP on the 1S. Missles are worthless these days aside from streaks, but I couldn't fit firepower and heatsinks together with Endo and 4 slots without being slower than an atlas. This has enough heat sinks to run 3ppcs pretty regularly and streaks keep lights lights away. You can remove a heatsink and a half ton of armor to add AMS or another SSRM, or both if you like. While the XL blows up sometimes, its just more fun than lurching around a map. This loadout can do what the Awesome was meant to do.
