Storm racks work good as some suggest, but are harder to use correctly in certain cases. They are not ideal to use as a easy to aim mid jump weapon compared to others, and have very little tracking ability once fired at a quickly moving targe. I prefer and believe that Gemini is a superior weapon for both Lacewing and Lancer, as it can not only track a long range, weaving around a corner if needed to find the target. It also allows you to pop/jump out from behind high cover giving minimal exposure time to release the shots to just fall back into cover behind the same object. The reload is also a short 6 second, but way better with a implant cutting it down a good bit. Then the actual damage is very nice, and the weaken effect allows teammates to finish them easily if you couldn't. Later on I f mods start to kill your Gems, you simply pair a Gem with a Stormrack. When firing at the same time the delay of the Gemini allows half of the SR rockets to leave first taking down or most of the mods (the SR shield damage implant help a lot) first before the Gems are released and hit the target. This combo works wonders on Aegis and others also, as it has the damage ability to take almost anything down without having to reload. MLS mods are the big killer of high damage/low round count weapons like the Gems, Savants, Strike Rockets, etc. But with the Gems ultra high damage and weaken effect, in combo with SR shield damage capabilities, this can be worked around. But in the end LW and Lancer are only really good with any weapon after you figure out where good high cover is on the map and how to use it. Finding those tall obstacles you can stand behind and jump only exposing your mech for a second long enough to just fire and fall back under cover is really valuable. Then always remember that if you are just constantly jumping around in the open, you will be spotted and targeted instantly, then probably shot by a homing type weapon. Keep your jumps to a minimum, only as needed and random, as it will draw attention from every bot in the map. So keep watching for the red eye spotted icon while and before you jump. If they can target you before you jump, don't as they are waiting for you, almost guaranteed. A jumping mech should be a surprise if not spotted before hand, but simply just a slow arching target to shoot at if they can see/target you before you jump out of cover.
