Oh yeah, and I do have my groups set up for a chainfire option. I just have one AC/5 each on group 3 and 4, and all three on group 1. Press 3, 4, and hold down 1 in order and you start off the chainfire barrage. Works fantastic for when you can afford the face time, just like having one of those silly macros. Tends to suppress people more than just hitting alphas. Certainly works, but you need to know when and when not to use it.

Ok that can explain why some seem to just pummel when others don't (but still kill ya)

Thanks to everyone for the insights and tips, I can now make a simpler choice lol

only thing the 3s gives you is that single missile rack. when i ran it i just stuck a single alrm20 in it, then focused the remaining weapons on a more short-medium range loadout. ac20 and a mix of medium and small lasers. this kind of works since it doesn't have the same closing speed that a 3m has and takes longer to bring its close in arsenal to bear. so it can use its rack to do damage in the mean time.

but if you have the option to not go with that varient, dont. its a pretty bad way to run a bansh. especially if you have the la malinche it wont bring anything new. go with the 3e, because boom boom fun.

Already have the others just need 1 for the set of 3. Also not really played them to much yet either, been waiting on them to go on sale to round out the 3rd one.

3E is better mech but with 3LL 3AC5 setup you need really big facetime and any time enemy team builds a fire line it is not a good idea in todays MWO. Assault or not you will be shredded to pieces with a facetime, 2 pop-out and then game over for 3E.

For this reason I love more my unorthodox setup in 3S.

It has answer to all 3 range catagory Gauss for extreme range, Gauss + 3 LPL for medium range, 3 LPL + 4 SL for pesky lights dancing around you, or Gauss + 3LPL + 4SL for some brawler that it thinks it can have face time with you.

When you don't use the SL it is quite heat efficient because of the twisting and arm shield Gauss does not explode that much even it does you have 3 LPL + 3 SL to continue to fight and you can even place a CASE if you go down little bit leg/arm armors.
