It is unreasonable to fit 3 AC/10's on this mech in any configuration. PGI Can you please consider changing it? I am certain that the numbers of muro's in the wild support this.

I currently run mine with just 2 AC10's, 2 med. lasers, and 1 lg. laser. The quirks give it some bite with the AC's, though I hate leaving an unfilled ballistic slot. Guess I could have put a MG in it, but prefer to use the 1.5 tons for an AMS. Its not a shining star build by any means, but it puts out a solid performance.

Considering that the stock Illya comes with an AC10 and 2 AC5's, not to mention that everyone usually went with a triple AC5/UAC5 build, not sure why they didn't give some love to AC5's in the Illya's quirks. Kinda like the K2 not getting a PPC quirk, its a head scratching WTF moment.

The UAC build is already good enough. This gives it some other viable alternative builds (maybe? haven't set mine to quirk-compliant yet, current build is still fine). Triple AC5 or Triple UAC5 on a pretty solid 70 ton chassis doesn't really need any buffs.

I oppose it. Ilya is already deadly with the Triple UAC5 as is.

yeah with as fast as the AC5s fire I run mine with 3 AC5s and 3 MLs. But I have my 3 AC5s set to chain fire or fire together. Ghost heat really isn't a problem for me on this mech. And I use the 3 AC5s together as a shorter ranged Gauss with no charging lol.
