I'm approaching enough coins to get the fifth slot, but I also want to put javelin rack 6 on my killshot. it definitely seems like to me the rack is the better option here, because I'd be putting a lancer in the fifth slot. an I correct?
I'm also wondering at what point I should get the fifth slot

No rush. You really only want to focus 3 bots/weapon sets for now, because upgrades costs get up-there. You want your core trio's performance to be up to task. Hangar strength has no affect on MM, just total games played and win percentage.

Get the Javelin 6s. They are hella fun (and effective) on Killshot. The only downside is that now I barely ever equip any other weapons on my KS, the Javs are just too good.
I found unlocking the 4th slot is nice for CPC matches, especially when Rocket Mortars just wipe out a couple of your bots quick, but a 5th doesn't seem really necessary. Interestingly, you can also unequip bots completely and drop down to just 3 or 2 or 1 bot. War Robots doesn't let you do that and I like that this is an option. I went up against a tricky guy in Tourney who from his hangar strength didn't seem like he'd be that tough. But his bots and weapons were way stronger than I expected. Pretty sure he was only playing a 2 bot hangar and just each was at 500 strength. Interesting strategy and it was an effective one.

I use Panther w/ Longarm 8's in tourney, and I can go multiple matches w/o dying once and get top MVP w/ it every match. Currently i use plasma 6's on the KS, they're actually pretty darn good, but i'm really looking forward to the J6's |

You don't need line of sight so you can last a lot longer. On today's map it was my first drop and for many games I'd last the whole match in it. It is good to switch back to Plas 6 on certain maps where the ceiling is a factor. Acropolis is a good example. |

Jav6 on the KS all the way. The second best weapon option for the KS when it's at 12 energy is RPG6. Plasma 6 isn't that great as you start facing tougher opponents. The Plasma have good ammo and damage and quick reload, but the projectiles are slow (I think even slower than RPG), and because it's a sustained damage type of weapon, you end up leaving your KS exposed for too long.
