Did some say Blackjack 1? Those Ac2 quirks are insane. Play a game in it nearly every week. Think I have 2 1000 games in it. Super fun little mech.

Before the skill tree overhaul, the lb2x had a cooldown module but the C-UAC-2 and C-AC2 did not, so I used 6x LB2x with module just because it was slightly faster despite the inaccuracy.

Yeah!
At the time one of my fridges had 3spls and an lbx2 with both cooldown modules. That was a fun dps brawler.

I had the same results. On paper you'd expect the UAC quirks to push the UAC/2 build way above the AC/2 build, but in practice you still jam too much even then. Posted Image


Also 3 additional tons to work with.

I ran the old-school 6 x AC/2 JagerMech for a while after they reduced AC/2 heat -- sometime last year?

It's surprisingly good fun -- and not as hopelessly crappy people would say. I had a string of 4 games with 3 games above 1000 dmg. It does require really careful positioning, and even then occasionally bites you in the *ss.

Quad 2's are my long range plinkers for my Dakka Annihilator build. Even if you get close they won't stop firing because they got double RAC 5's backing them up. It might not be the most efficient build but holy **** it is satisfying because BANGBANGBANGDAKKADAKKABRRRRRRTAHAHUAHUAHAIWILLMELTYOUWITHLEAD

And then the AC2s will be nerfed to ****, cause PGI doesn't know how to balance.

My AC8 Rifleman has a 972m optimal and I loves it.

The Urbie (K9?) can do an AC5 with 837m range, which is absolutely bonkers.

I still really love my quad AC2 Jager. I have never been a fan of UACs except for the one dragon build.
