3 LBX into the face of a commando and its still running...sigh... definitely buff...

I highly recommend anyone wondering whether they should change the LB10-X to:

1) Get in a light mech.
2) Engage LB10-X weilding foe, with decent aim.
3) QQ as your limbs come off.

THEN...

1) Get in a medium mech.
2) Engage LB10-X weilding for with decent aim.
3) LOL as he spreads his damage across your entire mech.


TL;DR - It's fine. You even get an additional ton and crit slot compared to the AC10!

I ran with 2x LBXs and 3 medium lasers in my Muro today, and I had similar poor experience with its effect on lagging light mechs. I had assumed it would help, but the lasers did far more than the ACs did.

I found using 3 LBX with 2 Mlas more effective especially when you fire all 3 LBX together, not chained, it creates a HUGE cloud of pellets that hits with good effect. Then follow up with Mlas for the kill. 2 LBX does really nothing, at least in my experiments so far. 3 LBX seems to be the min to stand on its own.
