I'll keep it short and simple.
Problem:
Clan UACs have a not insignificant DPS, crit slot and weight advantage over normal ACs, even taking into account jamming of UACs. Clan ACs are rarely, if ever, used.
Suggestion:
Encourage the use of Clan ACs through leveraging the new heat system by reducing their Power Draw .
Reasoning/Additional Thoughts:
This way they become an option for someone that wants to pack a little bit more alpha (or suffer less Penalty Heat) and hopefully becomes a valid 3rd choice for a mid to close range brawler between LBX or UACs.
As an initial test, a 20% reduction in power draw could be set; large enough to make a noticeable difference, especially for the bigger, struggling ACs but still giving the edge to LBX weapons. I think it will most likely settle at closer to 15% reduced power draw.
A possible alternative would be to fragment power draw across the different sizes; 20% for AC20, 15% for AC10, etc.
