I just did a face-to-face with a pair of RAC5's, and used a stopwatch... Less than 3 seconds into the barrage, my MCII-4 CT was destroyed. RAC5's are supposed to have a DPS of 10.91, and my CT has 90 armor + 58 structure. Those RAC5's were doing better than 24 DPS in reality. Even if counting an instant crit the moment the armor is breached, (which apparently happens with all RAC5's I encounter, if that's the case) that's still better than 15 DPS to the armor.

Please look into this.

See weapon Cooldown. Specifically Ballistic.

Ballistic cooldown quirks should not affect rotary auto cannons. From the testing grounds 36 shots took the same amount of time on a mech with 25% cooldown vs one with out any.

If they are over preforming, I would suggest increasing the spread from .23 to .4 or slightly increasing the jam duration.

They certainly feel more dangerous since pts to me.

I know, I shouldn't do that, but I needed to test to see if it was real... I had been killed in an earlier match with a single RAC5 in under 4 seconds, punching through my right arm, RT, and then CT after being legged, and having almost full armor on all those points.

Something's wrong with the Rotary Ac5 Firepower Calculation, i put on a pair my firepower went from 40 --> 149.9 lol

with a heat management of 0.52/2

[Innocent]

I am finding the same thing with the heat/damage display numbers.

IF you can get in position to fire without stopping then 2 RAC5s will shred anything in a few seconds. They definitely didn't do that in the PTS.
