What is the point of the 'Atlas' Sentinel or the vX.1?
How can it be used effectively?

Yes, but is there a specific technique that makes the STD forge useful?
I'm trying to use it, but I'm not getting any vehicle damage points, nor am I doing much damage.

So, you personally use a standard forge for anti personel at long distances?

I use Apex. I have also donated over 250 million ISK to cheritable causes.
I don't need Apex in order to manage my ISK. I use Apex for fun.

Thanks for all of the advice, guys!
Here are my main obstacles.
1. I have decent aim and am able to hit the objects that I intend to damage, however. the amount of damage inflicted by this fitting makes me wonder if this specific fitting has a viable function on the batatlefield.
2. Due to the very little damage inflicted by the 'Atlas' series fittings, I have to stay mobile (LAV) so that I can visit supply depots literally every two minutes.
3. Since the dropsuits BW is zero, I cannot set up shop and then camp out somewhere. The ground speed of the heavy suit, combined with the low damage of the weapon pretty much requires a camping tactic.

That is a nice combo, and I have that. What I'm trying to figure out in this thread is the most effective use of the 'Atlas'.
I have taken the previous advice to blast heavies with the forge, and that is fun, but I haven't found the STD forge to excel at destroying (or even significantly damaging) vehicles.
As stated by an earlier contributor, the STD forge doesn't appear to be a useful AV weapon.
