lb5s and cac5 have never been good.
is ac5s used to be good when we had monster quirks, but are terrible now unless boated 4+.
they are all directly inferior to uac5.
best buff i could imagine would be a 1.5s cd. this is similar to the buff the lb/ac10 has over the base cd of the uac10, so there is precedent. buffing other areas like velocity or crit chance doesn't make sense. buffing lb spread does not improve the weak position of the ac5 and will render it the worst of the 5 class (especially for clan).
to avoid a direct buff to high gun count ac5 boats, reduce gh limit to 5, possibly 4. i don't think this is necessary on the lb5 due to spread. it also gives you a reason to choose lb5 over ac5 in boating situations as it fits the low heat niche.
