A group of ravens has historically been called an "unkindness of ravens".

somehow, that seems appropriate for AC20 ravens lol

Seeing Boom Hammers getting around a bit at the moment. Why not the Boom Jaeger?

Dual ac10 is just more versatile.

That match was also against a potato team that actual fought in the bottom (seriously ppl, in 2017?!). A team armed with MGs and TAGs could have taken them apart. On most maps against a competent team, that XL engine will get you killed long before you get into range of AC20s.

I remember seeing an AC20 Jag recently. But that was shortly before the new skill tree. To be honest I don't see a lot of Jags around in general, though I see them once in a while and I also tested one of my own recently as a test for the skill tree.

Two things:

1) LFE will bring about the renaissance of boom anything and the AC20bin general

2) No ghost heat dual IS LB20X will quickly eclipse AC40 usage.

ps. I literally drooled a little bit typing thing. It was nasty.

No to the LB-20X. 11 slots for one? Not a chance.

not at all. LBX20 is garbage.

40 damage to one location >>> 40 damage that will hit different locations and probably wont all even hit the target.

the only reason clans tolerate LBX20 is because they cant use one shot autocannons. If they could they certainly wouldnt be using LBX20s anymore.

They could make the GH for ac20s 2 I think. Weight alone would prevent abuse.
