I’ll also go give the LB10/UAC2 combo a ty...that sounds like it could be neat.

Just ran a pair of each LB2/LB5/LB10 and really like the results there. Three ANH's, three different pilots, one particular one has bested me at least a dozen times. Went straight in with each one and won...barely. I'm concerned about ammo, though.

Its a hot build but it can 1v1 Annies

I was really like the 10/5/2 combo but lost 8 in a row this morning...5 to the same 4x LB10 Fafnir, 3 to the same 5x LB10 ANH, and one to some goober with a 4x RAC5 ANH I should have been able to deal with but I was trying an equally gooberish 4x AC5/8x small laser build I shouldn't have even contemplated...

Still think my AC10/5/2 combo is the most tanky thing I've managed.

Maybe, I recall the name but not the matches. There’s nothing special about losing to an annihilator, and unless something really unique happened in the match the mad cat is just an example of “lose some, win some”.

Just enough ammo... the 6x5x2 for a 60 dmg alpha every 1.6s is effective against all targets, except the ANHs, but if I can focus one half down, its a good chance to win. the problem is I tend to spread between the mid and the half, while my DWF is a huge box for him to spam at. The jams are not significant, and if they do jam, they reduce heat output, so the fella can fire at max rate without overheating.
Ghost heat is minimal with uac5's so I can spam all 6 safely at range, then cool a little, spam again. Under brawl, 4 torso cannons + 2 arms at intervals + micro lasers can beat pretty much everything else so far except those LB10 ANHs. I can brawl through AC2 ANHS provided they fail to remove a torso on my way in.
So far this is my most reliable DWF setup, but the UAC20, 10x2, 5x2 can dish out more damage on a whim for 100 alpha, but suffers at mid range and heat problems - that fella can core out an ANH at close range real fast - provided clean hits and surviving the pressure cooker. Id rather take 60alpha (+20 at close) at 1.6s CD w. extra sinks.

Ran into you again today - if im loaded with the big UACs, don't let me cool down - LB's will win by heat efficiency and crits. A 100 dmg alpha sends my fella to 50+% heat, a 2nd round of that and the cooker is on. If I can escape to cool off the first few alphas, you're in trouble, cause the next alpha spam will core you out regardless of my heat condition.
2nd part is to focus down the damage - a lot of time you're hitting all 3 torsos, you could have taken half out with that damage and it would be a much harder fight for me.

1st match you were loaded with a mixture of ac10s, 5s and 2s maybe? That round I was trying out uac20 x2 + uac10 x2 - certainly was not fun in a live match, but the damage is devastating at a potential 120 damage over 2 bursts. Just that it took way too long face time. Problem with stnadard AC's is the lack of double taps - when I see you, I can dish double output with just a bit more face time, while you don't have that adv being forced to wait for the CD. I will avoid direct face time until im sure I can core my opponent.
2nd time i swapped back to the uac20, uac10x2 and uac5x2 for 100 alpha in a single burst. You were loaded with 6 lbx - did not see the size tho - when you came out of the hill, i retreated behind the cliff to cool down so i could dish out another pair of alpha strikes. if you pushed - you could have won honestly, pretty sure lbx's have little heat on your mech even at max fire rate.
tbh uac20 is a bit hit and miss - if it jams its a nightmare cause a huge chunk of damage is missing. so its always good to have smaller calibers to provide reliability. I tried a potato uac20, uac10, lbx20 x2 before - massive alpha, but horrible sustain, esp when the uac jams... gave up after a few matches for my uac5x6 again.
