best 3s Lipo discharge rate

[tony zito]

Hi for the DNA 250, I see a few companies using Maxamps 100c discharge batteries. Is all of that burst power even usable? if not what sort of c rating should I be looking for?

You're talking boutique companies. All choose the battery that will fit within the enclosure, or build/use the enclosure that will their battery of choice.

Mooch has now published his Lipo testing results, and blown the lid off the hype and marketing.

Quoting him "C ratings are useless. Some packs exaggerate them beyond comprehension with some actually rated above the point where 12AWG wire would melt. Melt! Even if we call that a "pulse" rating the wiring would reach several hundred degrees."

You only need 30A of power.  So, a 1300mah 25c would be plenty. Also, I know tons of ppl use maxamps batts in their vapes, I never would. They are grossly overrated.
