Never saw the point in the clan Uac's having to fire one more projectile...

Balance.
Clan ACs are lighter and everything than their IS counterparts, so they introduce a bit of damage spread.
But knowing you, you will cry "ouin ouin PGI hates clans".

And your wrong clan Acs are not better in everthing under most cases aside from the light acs and Ac2 family
for example the UAc5 has one shot and no duration while the CUAC has a 0.11 second duration this is something that can be severely effected by fast moving mechs and lag
the clan AC2 is 1 slots larger than the IS version, it get's more range but does that really compensate? CLan does not get a single slot AC So tell me again how the clan ones are better?
Despite what most people think even despite clan components being smaller in most cases clan mechs are majorly made up of omnimechs with fixed components that take up space, which is a premium in an omnimech
For a quick example let's take the adder, i cannot put anythin 2 slots big into the adders Ct because of a fixed structure slot i cannot put an active probe or ASP in the head because of a fixed armor slot
and on the note of omnipods and space Clan omnis as far as space and 'lighter components' in order to put more guns OR ANY GUNS in say the left torso or right torso of a DWF or most other omnis i have to have reduced armor..... which means all those guns and equipment i put in there despite being smaller and ligher are now all of a sudden are more exposed to the generally faster cooldown IS weapons and even clan weapons.... and i'm not even including the insanely high damage rotaries.

But this totally ignores quirks which are generally higher on IS mechs which make is ballstics faster to fire
what I'm not understanding is why do clan mechs not get more armor to compensate for that slower rate of fire from all weapons as all clan weapons for the most part have a longer firing cycle meanwhile IS enjoys faster firing Acs like the ac 20 because the IS ac 20 fires one shell
In almost all cases with all weapons IS weapons have a higher DPS while their mechs carry more armor....even lasers and no thx to X-pulse range is kinda getting nullified a little. before the recent patch X med pulse had the same range as clan med pulse.
only clan large pulse had a range advantage over the large X pulse now the x-medium pulse does too
