I was planning to use this mech for some long range engagements, where i head on scouting behind enemy lines and keep a long distance and while i support targeting for my team form a afar i could fire a few shots to harass the enemy line. My problem however is that aiming on long range with my Ultra AC/5 is nearly impossible, perhaps i'm just bad at it but the bullet trajectory seems always a bit off and its speed really makes it a challenge. So if i want to hit anything i most of the time need to halt my mech. Now we all know Cicada is a paper mech and as such will very likely die from any unfortunate engagement from the enemy.
My question is, what alternative loadouts would you guys recommend for this kind of engagement, perhaps adding two AC/2 would be a better option? Is it even possible to squeeze a third one? How much difference in dps would this mean? I'm not very aware of the power of AC/2 at the moment. How much easier is it to hit consistently with it from a far? Thanks
