IS UAC5 needs baby buff so it's an ultra and not an ac5 that jams and that's the end of my story.
I just want rifle KGC back, not sure it matters too much with how far the new tech left it in the dust.
Can't please everyone.

Night Star feels ok.

Contented with the patch.

There are lots of mechs being re-quirked to have -% UAC jamming!
And more coming out as the Cauldron rolls these out for each mech chassis.

Perhaps you may wish to study the patch notes for details!

What about unlocking UAC jam nodes?

I was thinking more about cycle times. Like in the pre skill tree times but the more I think about it they're just obsolete and it's probably not worth it.

navid has a no-jam uac proposal but apparently we need a PTR to test it so thats why it hasn't happened yet.

There is a King Crag with a UAC Jam chance quirk.

Works great with 4 UAC5s and 2 PPCs.

UAC10 fit into the arm and it is 2x5 damage.

Ac5 is better when stacked and compared with AC2's rac2 the ac5 has the RAC5 but the rac2 has better value since the rac5 deals 2x5 damage, that is 2 damage for each bullet but this is as well true for the UAC10 with 2x5 damage with 5 damage for each burst in which the cannon fires 2 bursts of 5 damage. This makes the ac5 better than the UAC5 since the damage is 5 for each bullet the U'AC5 doesn't gain as much from burst fire of uac since most want the raw damage of 5 from ac5 and balancing the firepower to prevent UAC5 becoming overpowered. I haven't made tests on the uac5 , if it follow the rules of the uac it fire 2,5x2 which isn't much difference from UAc2 1 raw damage vs 2,5 raw damage.

Pardon, je ne comprend pas?
(Sorry, I do not understand?)

Very interested in what you are saying.
But as a newcomer to MWO, can you please rephrase your below quite into plain English please?
Merci beaucoup!
